🔎 Why scrape Kleinanzeigen.de?

With over 50 million active listings and 35+ million monthly users, Kleinanzeigen.de is the pulse of the German consumer and small-business economy. It is the primary marketplace where Germans buy and sell used cars, rent apartments, trade smartphones and electronics, furnish homes, and advertise local services.

However, turning Kleinanzeigen into structured business data is challenging without a purpose-built extractor:

• German formatting conventions: Prices use dots as thousands separators and commas for decimals (18.990,50 € VB), while dates are written in relative German natural language (Heute, 14:20, Gestern, vor 3 Tagen, 28.04.2026).
• Postal codes embedded in strings: The 5-digit German Postleitzahl (PLZ) is concatenated inside the location label (80331 München) and must be parsed cleanly for geo-analytics.
• Category-specific attribute tables: A used BMW in Autos (c216) exposes Kilometerstand, Erstzulassung, and Kraftstoffart, whereas a Berlin apartment in Mietwohnungen (c203) exposes Wohnfläche, Zimmer, Kaltmiete, and Nebenkosten.

This Kleinanzeigen scraper normalizes all of these signals automatically into a unified, flat JSON schema — allowing you to run fast list-level sweeps across thousands of ads or enable scrapeDetails: true for deep per-listing enrichment.

✨ Key features of this Kleinanzeigen data extractor

• 🗂️ Zero-Code Dropdowns + Custom Search URLs: Pick a category (Cars, Apartments for rent, Houses for sale, Phones, Electronics, Home & garden, Fashion, Jobs, etc.), select a German city (Berlin, Hamburg, München, Köln, Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Düsseldorf, Leipzig, etc.), and type an optional keyword — or paste any pre-filtered Kleinanzeigen URL into searchUrls.
• 🔓 Unlocked 1,000+ Deep Pagination: With maxPages: 0 by default, the scraper walks /seite:1, /seite:2, /seite:3... automatically until maxListings is reached, scaling seamlessly to 1,000+ listings across categories and cities.
• 💶 German Price & Price-Type Normalization: Converts 1.990 € VB into numeric price: 1990, currency: "EUR", and priceType: "VB" (VB negotiable, Festpreis fixed, or Zu verschenken free giveaway).
• 📅 German Relative Date Parser: Normalizes "Heute", "Gestern", "vor 4 Tagen", and "DD.MM.YYYY" strings into standard ISO YYYY-MM-DD dates (postedDate).
• 🚗 Complete Automotive Schema (Autos): Extracts kilometerstand (even on search cards!), plus erstzulassung, kraftstoff, getriebe, leistung, fahrzeugtyp, and hubraum on detail pages.
• 🏢 Complete Real Estate Schema (Immobilien): Extracts wohnflaeche (m²), zimmer (room count), kaltmiete (base rent in EUR), nebenkosten (utilities in EUR), etage (floor), and verfuegbarAb (move-in date).
• 👤 Seller & Commercial Dealer Signals: Distinguishes Privat (private C2C seller) from Gewerblich (commercial dealer), extracts sellerName, sellerMemberSince, viewCount, and captures phone numbers published by commercial sellers.

🔁 Pagination, scale & performance

• Automatic /seite:N Deep Pagination: Each Kleinanzeigen search page returns ~25 listings. When maxPages is 0 (the default), the actor automatically walks /seite:1, /seite:2, /seite:3... until totalSaved reaches your maxListings target (including 1,000+ listings) or the search results end.
• Multi-Category & Multi-URL Scaling: When running with multiple searchUrls or in multi-category discovery mode, the scraper processes each search sequentially and deduplicates every ad by listingId.
• Speed Tip: List-only mode (scrapeDetails: false) is 5–8× faster than detail mode and already captures title, price, priceType, location, postalCode, postedDate, imageUrl, listingUrl, and kilometerstand (for cars). Enable scrapeDetails: true when you specifically need full descriptions, seller profiles, view counts, or full vehicle/apartment attribute tables.

🔌 Workflow automation & BI integrations

1. Automated Used-Car & Arbitrage Alerts (Make / Zapier / n8n): Schedule the scraper to run every 30–60 minutes on your target category or searchUrls, filter new records where price is 15%+ below category median, and push instant notifications with title, price, kilometerstand, postalCode, and listingUrl to Slack or Telegram.
2. Real Estate Rent-Index Dashboards (Power BI / Looker / Tableau): Export s-wohnung-mieten/c203 daily across German cities to compute median kaltmiete per m² (wohnflaeche) grouped by 5-digit postalCode (PLZ).
3. CRM Dealer Enrichment (HubSpot / Pipedrive / Salesforce): Run with scrapeDetails: true on commercial categories, filter for sellerType == "Gewerblich", and sync sellerName, phone, location, and postalCode into your B2B sales pipeline.

---

⚠️ Known limitations

• Private seller phone numbers: Kleinanzeigen hides phone numbers for Privat (consumer) sellers behind its internal messaging relay; phone is populated only when a Gewerblich (commercial) seller publishes a direct tel: number on the ad.
• Detail mode runtime: Because scrapeDetails: true opens each listing's individual page in a browser context, keep maxListings moderate (50–300) when detail enrichment is enabled, or use scrapeDetails: false for fast 1,000+ listing sweeps.

---

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How many listings can I scrape in a single run?

Set maxListings: 1000 (or 0 for unlimited) and leave maxPages: 0. The scraper will paginate through result pages (/seite:N) until your target count is reached.

Can I use custom Kleinanzeigen filter URLs (price range, radius, seller type)?

Yes! Configure any filter directly on kleinanzeigen.de (e.g., price range preis:1000:5000, commercial sellers anbieter:gewerblich, radius search), copy the browser URL, and paste it into searchUrls.

Why are vehicle or real-estate fields null when scrapeDetails is false?

Search result cards only display summary data (title, price, location, postalCode, postedDate, and kilometerstand for cars). Full attribute tables (erstzulassung, kraftstoff, wohnflaeche, kaltmiete, sellerName, viewCount) live on the detail page and populate when scrapeDetails: true.
