PropertyFinder.ae UAE Real Estate Listings

Pull live apartment, villa, penthouse, townhouse and land listings straight from PropertyFinder.ae — the UAE's biggest real-estate portal — filtered by deal type (sale/rent) and emirate, sorted freshest-first. No login, no API key, no browser needed on your side.

What you get

• Title, price (with currency), bedrooms, floor area in m², location, coordinates, a short description, up to 5 photos, the listing date and the direct listing URL for every ad found.
• Filter by sale or rent, any of the 7 UAE emirates, and optionally drop anything older than N days.
• Results are sorted freshest-first among what was scanned.
• Runs on Apify: schedule it, monitor it, call it from the API, export to JSON/CSV/Excel or push straight into your own pipeline.

How to run it

1. Click Try for free — no card needed on the free plan.
2. Pick Deal type (sell or rent) and Emirate (defaults to Dubai).
3. Hit Start and pull the results from the dataset (UI, API or webhook).

Pricing

Pay-per-event: $0.005 per run start + $0.003 per result. No monthly seat, no minimum. 100 listings found cost about $0.30 (the one-time start fee plus 100 result rows). Rows where the source returned nothing (zero matching listings, nothing within your freshness window, or a request that failed) are returned for transparency but are never charged for.

简体中文说明

直接从中东最大的房产门户 PropertyFinder.ae 抓取在售/在租的公寓、别墅、顶层豪宅、联排别墅和土地房源，可按 deal_type（sell 出售 / rent 出租）和阿联酋七个酋长国之一筛选（emirate，默认 dubai 迪拜），扫描到的结果按发布时间从新到旧排序。每条房源包含标题、价格及币种（统一为 AED 迪拉姆）、卧室数、按平方米换算的面积、地理位置和坐标、简介、最多 5 张图片、发布日期以及原始链接。

目前只能按酋长国粒度筛选，无法精确到具体楼盘或社区：PropertyFinder.ae 的 robots.txt 屏蔽了可用于精细筛选的查询字符串检索接口，本 Actor 改为读取 robots.txt 明确允许、且出现在官方站点地图中的酋长国整体列表页。也不会抓取经纪人联系方式、完整设施清单、期房项目信息或卖家电话——只提取房源卡片本身展示的信息；一次运行会在 max_pages/max_items 达到上限时停止，返回的是扫描范围内最新的房源，不是对全站的完整爬取保证。

计费为按事件付费：每次运行 $0.005，每条房源结果 $0.003。100 条房源约 $0.30（含一次性启动费）；没有匹配房源、超出新鲜度窗口或请求失败的记录会返回说明，但不计费。

Field	Meaning
found	true for a real listing row, false for a not-found/error row.
price	Listing price as a number, in currency (always AED).
rooms	Bedroom count (0 for a studio); null when not applicable (e.g. land plots).
area_sqm	Floor/plot area converted to square meters (source lists it in sqft).
location	Full location string as shown on the listing: tower/building, community, area, emirate.
posted_date	Full ISO 8601 timestamp of when the listing was posted/refreshed — rows are sorted by this, freshest first.
images	Up to 5 preview photo URLs.
partial	true when this run stopped without PropertyFinder.ae itself confirming there is nothing more — either max_pages/max_items was reached, or an unconfirmed empty page came back. false only when the source's own response confirmed no further results exist. Carried on every row, found or not.
partial_reason	Plain-English reason when partial is true; null when it's false.

A not-found row looks like:

{
    "emirate": "fujairah",
    "deal_type": "rent",
    "found": false,
    "note": "PropertyFinder.ae returned listings for this emirate/deal_type, but none were within the last 1 day(s) (25 dropped as stale).",
    "scraped_at": "2026-08-01T05:10:22.842Z"
}

FAQ / Limitations

Does this need a PropertyFinder.ae account or API key? No — it reads public pages a visitor sees, no login.

Why emirate-level, not a specific building or district? PropertyFinder.ae's robots.txt blocks the query-string search endpoint this Actor could otherwise use for finer filtering. This Actor instead reads the emirate-wide "properties for sale/rent" page — a plain page confirmed both allowed by robots.txt and currently listed in PropertyFinder's own sitemap. Narrower filtering isn't available through a robots.txt-compliant path right now.

What this is NOT. This does not fetch agent/broker contact details, the full amenities list, off-plan project listings, or the seller's phone number — only what a property-type listing card carries on the emirate page. It does not guarantee every listing on PropertyFinder.ae is returned; scanning stops at max_pages / max_items, and results are the freshest found within that scan, not a strict site-wide "newest first" crawl.

Found a bug or need a custom variant (a different GCC portal, extra fields)? Open an issue on the Actor page.

Machine use

The Actor is callable through the Apify API, SDK, and Apify MCP server. The input and Dataset row are the machine-facing contract; rooms/area_sqm/images return exactly what a listing card publishes and are null/empty rather than guessed when the source doesn't carry a value, and scanning is bounded by max_pages/max_items — this Actor never claims a full site-wide crawl.
