Example Output
Proxy Requirements
Zillow has aggressive anti-bot protections. Residential proxies are required for reliable operation. The actor is pre-configured to use Apify's residential proxy group.
If you use your own proxies, ensure they are residential-grade. Datacenter proxies will be blocked quickly.
Performance and Cost Estimates
| Listings | Estimated Time | Estimated Cost (Apify) |
|---|---|---|
| 20 | 2-3 minutes | ~$0.10-0.15 |
| 50 | 4-7 minutes | ~$0.20-0.35 |
| 100 | 8-15 minutes | ~$0.40-0.70 |
| 200 | 15-25 minutes | ~$0.80-1.40 |
Costs depend on proxy usage (residential proxies are billed per GB) and compute time. Actual costs may vary based on Zillow's response times and retry rates.
Tips for Best Results
- Use specific locations - "Austin, TX" works better than just "Austin"
- Set reasonable maxResults - Start small (20-50) to verify results before scaling up
- Use filters - Narrowing by price, beds, or home type reduces pages to scrape
- Schedule runs - Set up periodic runs to track market changes over time
- Monitor logs - Check run logs for CAPTCHA or rate-limiting warnings
Limitations
- Zillow may change their page structure at any time, which could temporarily affect data extraction
- Very high-volume scraping may trigger rate limits or blocks
- Some fields (description, year built) are only available on detail pages and may be null in search results
- Photo URLs are temporary and may expire after a few days
- Maximum of 500 listings per run (Zillow limits search results to ~800 total)
