## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

### Scrape owner-direct rental listings in Bangalore

The default recipe. `city` is a fixed list of 10 metros (bangalore, mumbai, delhi, pune,
hyderabad, chennai, gurgaon, noida, kolkata, ahmedabad), each maps to a verified centroid that
the actor turns into NoBroker's own geo-search payload, then pages through an 8 km radius.

```json
{
  "city": "bangalore",
  "listingType": "RENT",
  "maxResults": 100
}
```

### Scrape flats for sale in Mumbai

Flip `listingType` to `BUY` and the same city search returns sale inventory instead. Rent runs
populate `rent`/`deposit`/`maintenance`; sale runs populate `price`.

```json
{
  "city": "mumbai",
  "listingType": "BUY",
  "maxResults": 100
}
```

### Build a multi-city India rent dataset

There is one city per run by design, so a multi-city panel is several scheduled runs writing into
the same dataset. Duplicate listings are dropped by `property_id` inside each run before charging.

```json
{
  "city": "hyderabad",
  "listingType": "RENT",
  "maxResults": 250
}
```

### Why use this NoBroker scraper

NoBroker is India's largest broker-free property platform, listings come directly from
owners, which makes it a different supply pool from the broker-led portals. This actor reads its
public geo-search API and returns the richest record set of any Indian property source we cover:
25 fields including rent, deposit and maintenance as separate numbers, BHK, bathrooms, balconies,
built-up area, furnishing state, parking type, facing direction, floor and total floors, building
name, availability date, and latitude/longitude.

The coordinates matter, they let you join listings to any other geospatial dataset without
geocoding a locality string first.

### All NoBroker scraper input options

| Field | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `city` | string | no | `"bangalore"` | Indian city to search. |
| `listingType` | string | no | `"RENT"` | Rent or sale listings. |
| `maxResults` | integer | no | `25` | Maximum properties to return. |

### What data you get from each NoBroker listing

One record per property, up to 25 fields. Field list and example below are taken from a real run, not a mock-up.

### What people use NoBroker property data for

- **True cost-of-tenancy modelling**, rent, deposit and maintenance are separate numeric fields, so you can model the real monthly and upfront cost rather than the headline rent.
- **Geospatial rent analysis**, every record carries latitude and longitude, ready to join to transit, school or workplace datasets.
- **Owner-direct supply tracking**, NoBroker's inventory is broker-free, so it is a cleaner read on genuine owner supply than portals with duplicate broker listings.
- **Furnishing and amenity premium analysis**, `furnishing`, `parking`, `balconies` and `facing` are all structured, making hedonic pricing straightforward.
- **Availability forecasting**, `available_from` shows forward supply rather than only what is vacant today.

### NoBroker scraper FAQ

#### How is this different from the MagicBricks actor?

Different supply pool and a deeper record. NoBroker is owner-direct with no broker listings, and it exposes deposit, maintenance, furnishing, floor and coordinates that MagicBricks does not publish. Many users run both and compare.

#### Why is `building_name` sometimes absent?

NoBroker's own API currently returns the literal string '403 Gone' in its buildingName field on every record, one of their internal services is failing. This actor detects that, falls back to the society name where one is published, and returns nothing rather than passing an HTTP error through as data.

#### Are the coordinates exact?

They are the coordinates NoBroker publishes for the listing, which are typically building-level but occasionally locality-level. Treat them as accurate to the building at best.

#### Rent or sale?

Both. Set `listingType` to RENT or BUY. Rent listings populate `rent`/`deposit`; sale listings populate `price`.

### What does it cost to scrape NoBroker listings

Pay per event: one `property-scraped` event per delivered record, charged only **after** the record is validated and stored. Empty results, blocked pages and duplicates are never charged. Store discounts apply automatically on paid Apify plans.

#### What a run with no results costs

Every run is charged one Actor Start event of $0.00005, including a run that returns nothing. The per-result charge is separate and genuinely does not fire on an empty, blocked or duplicate result, so a run that finds nothing costs $0.00005 and no more.

### Use NoBroker data in Claude, ChatGPT & any MCP agent

This actor runs as an MCP server, so an AI agent can call it directly:

```
https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=themineworks/nobroker-scraper
```

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient
client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("themineworks/nobroker-scraper").call(run_input={"city": "bangalore", "listingType": "RENT", "maxResults": 10})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)
```

### Is scraping NoBroker listings legal

This actor collects only publicly available information, the same data any visitor can see without logging in. It does not access private or authenticated areas, does not attempt to bypass paywalls, and collects no personal data beyond what the source already publishes openly. You are responsible for using the output in line with the source site's terms and with the data protection law that applies to you.

# Actor input Schema

## `city` (type: `string`):

Indian city to search for property listings on NoBroker.

## `listingType` (type: `string`):

Whether to fetch rental listings or properties for sale.

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of properties to return for the search.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Defaults to datacenter (measured live: identical results to residential, cheaper). Residential is used automatically as a one-shot fallback if a page fails on datacenter.

## `allowResidentialFallback` (type: `boolean`):

If a page fails every datacenter attempt, retry it once on Indian residential before giving up. On by default. Turn off to force datacenter-only.
