Trulia Scraper

Extract property listings from Trulia across the United States: for sale, for rent, and recently sold. Search by location with optional keyword and sort, or paste Trulia URLs directly. Every listing comes back as one clean record with price, beds, baths, square footage, full address, GPS coordinates, photos, and the listing agent and broker. Turn on detail mode to also pull price history, tax history, the full feature list, open houses, agent contact, and affordability data from each property page.

Why this scraper

• Rich output out of the box: search results already include price, beds, baths, size, full address, neighborhood, GPS, photo gallery, listing agent name and broker, status flags, and tracking ids. No detail fetch needed for the common fields.
• Optional deep detail: one toggle adds price history, tax history, features, open houses, listing agent and broker contact, local protections, estimated rent, and more.
• Three listing channels: for sale, for rent, and recently sold.
• Real keyword filter: narrow a location to listings that mention a term like pool or waterfront.
• Two input modes: build searches from simple fields, or paste search and property URLs you already have. Multiple URLs supported with automatic pagination.
• Lean and predictable: detail mode is off by default, so a standard run is fast and low cost. One result cap (Max items) keeps every run predictable.
• Optional export: pipe results straight into Notion, Linear, Airtable, or Apify via MCP connectors.

Send results into your apps (MCP connectors)

Optionally pipe each result into the tools you already use. Authorize a connector under Apify, Settings, Integrations, then select it in the mcpConnectors field. For Notion, also set notionParentPageUrl. The connector receives a condensed, human-readable summary per item (address plus key fields); the complete record always stays in the Apify dataset. Leave the field empty to skip. Supported connectors: Notion, Linear, Airtable, and Apify.

Plan requirement

Trulia admits United States residential connections only, so this actor needs an Apify Residential proxy pinned to the US (the default). Datacenter exits are refused. Free Apify plans do not include residential proxy; use a Starter plan or higher (https://apify.com/pricing). The actor rotates US then CA residential exits and can fail over to a backup gateway. If a run returns zero items, check that the proxy is set to Residential US.
