Zillow Scraper
zillow.com
Zillow is served through a dedicated plugin endpoint rather than the generic page fetch. Give it a location - a city and state like 'Austin, TX' or a ZIP - and it returns the listings already parsed: price, beds, baths and living area, the full address and coordinates, the home type, the Zestimate and rent Zestimate, days on Zillow and a clean listing URL. Filter by status (for sale / for rent / sold), price range, beds, baths and property type, sort the results, and collect as many as you need across pages. It reads Zillow's own listing data behind PerimeterX, so there is no HTML scraping to maintain yourself.
What you can extract
- Price (parsed number + text) and currency
- Beds, baths and living area (sqft), plus lot size
- Full address: street, city, state, ZIP and coordinates
- Home type and listing status (for sale / rent / sold)
- Zestimate, rent Zestimate and tax-assessed value
- Days on Zillow, broker and a clean listing URL
Dedicated endpoints
/realestate/zillow Zillow listings for a location
Zillow real-estate listings for a city/state or ZIP: a homes array with price, beds, baths, area, address, homeType, zestimate, rentZestimate, daysOnZillow, coordinates and a listing URL. Filter with status, min_price/max_price, beds, baths and home_type; sort and page with max_results.
How to scrape it
curl -X POST \
-H "X-ScrapeUnblocker-Key: $SU_API_KEY" \
"https://api.scrapeunblocker.com/realestate/zillow?location=Austin%2C%20TX&beds=3"import requests
resp = requests.post(
"https://api.scrapeunblocker.com/realestate/zillow",
headers={"X-ScrapeUnblocker-Key": SU_API_KEY},
params={"location": "Austin, TX", "beds": "3"},
)
print(resp.text)import { ScrapeUnblockerClient } from 'scrapeunblocker';
const su = new ScrapeUnblockerClient({ apiKey: process.env.SU_API_KEY });
const data = await su.zillowSearch('Austin, TX', {
status: 'for_sale',
minPrice: 600000,
beds: 3,
});
console.log(results);Requests are POST and take their parameters in the query string. Browser rendering always happens - there is no flag to enable.

}Frequently asked questions
Is it legal to scrape Zillow?
Collecting publicly available Zillow listing data such as prices, addresses and home details is generally legal, and courts have repeatedly upheld access to public web data. Real-estate data can include personal information, so use it responsibly and follow applicable rules. ScrapeUnblocker returns the public page; what you collect and how you use it is your decision.
How do I scrape Zillow without getting blocked?
Zillow is protected by PerimeterX. ScrapeUnblocker handles it for you - real-browser rendering, residential and ISP exit rotation and challenge solving - and returns parsed listings at a 100% success rate across our benchmark, about 2.9s per call.
What Zillow data can I extract?
Price (as a number and text) and currency, beds, baths, living area and lot size, the full address with coordinates, home type and listing status (for sale / rent / sold), Zestimate, rent Zestimate and tax-assessed value, days on Zillow, the broker and a clean listing URL.
Can I search Zillow by city, state or ZIP code?
Yes. Give a city and state or a ZIP and the endpoint returns the matching homes array, which you can filter by status, price range, beds, baths and home type, then sort and page through.
Do I need the Zillow API?
No. Zillow's own data access is restricted; ScrapeUnblocker renders the public listing pages and returns them as clean JSON, with no Zillow API account needed.
How much does it cost to scrape Zillow?
ScrapeUnblocker is priced per request, not per gigabyte - from about EUR 1 per 1,000 requests down to roughly EUR 0.55 at volume, with a predictable bill.
