LandWatch.com Scraper

Extracts property listings and real estate agent data from LandWatch.com for real estate analysis, market research, and lead generation.

Overview

This Apify actor scrapes two primary data types from LandWatch.com:
* Property Listings: Details from search result pages and individual property pages.
* Agent Information: Both agent directory lists and detailed individual agent profiles.

It automatically detects the URL type and applies the correct scraping logic. Data can be exported in JSON, CSV, and other standard formats.

Key Features

• Dual Scraping Modes:

  • Search Results: Scrapes all property listings from a search URL (e.g., https://www.landwatch.com/south-carolina-land-for-sale/gray-court).
  • Individual Listings: Targets a specific property using its direct URL.
  • Agent Lists: Scrapes basic info for multiple agents from directory pages (e.g., https://www.landwatch.com/find-agent/austin-county-tx).
  • Agent Details: Extracts comprehensive profile data from agent pages (e.g., https://www.landwatch.com/profile/homeland-properties/174024).

• Comprehensive Data Extraction: Captures detailed fields including property specifications, pricing, agent/broker details, contact information, historical data, and images.

• Efficient Processing: Handles pagination automatically and supports incremental/scoped crawls to process only new or updated data on subsequent runs.

How to Use

Provide one or more LandWatch.com URLs as input. The actor will classify the URL and scrape accordingly.

Supported URL Patterns:
* https://www.landwatch.com/*-land-for-sale/* (Property Search)
* https://www.landwatch.com/*/pid/* (Individual Property)
* https://www.landwatch.com/find-agent/* (Agent List)
* https://www.landwatch.com/profile/* (Agent Profile)

Run Options:
* Start URLs: Add your target LandWatch URLs here.
* Max Results: Limit the total number of items scraped.
* Proxy Configuration: Use residential proxies for large-scale or recurring runs to avoid blocks.

Input/Output

Input: A list of LandWatch.com URLs. You can configure crawl depth and limits in the actor's input settings.

Output: Structured datasets containing all scraped fields. Each item type (property, agent list entry, agent detail) has a consistent schema. The default dataset includes:
* Property/Agent URL
* Extracted details (price, location, specs, contact info, etc.)
* Scraping timestamp

Run the actor via the Apify Console, API, or scheduler to export the data to your preferred storage or app.
