🔎 Why scrape Yad2?

Yad2 (יד2) is the foundational real estate marketplace in Israel. The overwhelming majority of residential properties for sale (נדל"ן למכירה) and for rent (נדל"ן להשכרה) in Israel are listed on Yad2 first — posted by both private homeowners (FSBO / ללא תיווך) and licensed real estate brokerages (תיווך). Whether you are analyzing asking prices in Tel Aviv-Yafo, tracking new rental inventory in Jerusalem and Haifa, or sourcing off-market seller leads in Gush Dan and the Sharon plain, Yad2 data is the primary market signal.

However, turning Yad2's web interface into an analytics dataset or CRM pipeline by hand is slow and fragile:

• Deep multi-page result sets: A single city or regional query spans dozens to hundreds of result pages.
• Hebrew RTL layout & scattered fields: Price in ₪, room counts (חדרים), floor level (קומה), built area in square meters (מ"ר), neighborhood (שכונה), and seller type are spread across card elements.
• Repeated promoted listings: Promoted and bumped ads reappear across pages; without deterministic deduplication by listing token, manual exports suffer from heavy duplication.
• Regional access requirements: Yad2 serves full marketplace data exclusively to Israeli residential traffic.

This Yad2 scraper automates the entire workflow. Paste one or more Yad2 search URLs (or run with empty inputs for an instant sample of both for-sale and for-rent properties) and receive one clean, normalized row per property — ready for BI dashboards, automated valuation models (AVMs), GIS mapping, or broker lead-generation workflows.

Common reasons teams use this Yad2 data extractor

• 📊 Price & ₪/m² benchmarking — Calculate median asking prices and price-per-square-meter across cities, neighborhoods, and room counts.
• 💼 FSBO & Seller Lead Generation — Filter merchant == "false" to isolate private property owners (contactName) before competing brokerages sign them.
• 🏦 Real Estate Investment & Yield Screening — Compare realestate/forsale asking prices against realestate/rent monthly leases in the same neighborhood to identify high-yield pockets.
• 🏢 Proptech & Portal Aggregation — Populate valuation tools, mortgage calculators, and relocation platforms with fresh inventory, photos, and coordinates.
• 📈 Brokerage Competitive Intelligence — Filter merchant == "true" to monitor agency listing volume and neighborhood market share.
• 🗺️ GIS & Spatial Price Modeling — Plot every property directly onto a map using built-in latitude and longitude coordinates.

✨ What this Yad2 scraper does

• ✅ For-Sale & For-Rent in a single run — Pass realestate/forsale URLs, realestate/rent URLs, or both together. Every row is tagged with its category.
• ✅ Unlocked 1,000+ results pagination — Automatically walks page 1, 2, 3 … up to the search's total_pages or your maxItems ceiling, collecting hundreds or thousands of listings seamlessly.
• ✅ Zero-duplicate guarantee — Deduplicates every listing across pages and across multiple search URLs using its unique Yad2 token and ad number.
• ✅ Complete property fundamentals — Extracts adNumber, title, subtitle (property type), price, currency (₪), rooms, squareMeters, floor, and a pipe-separated features summary.
• ✅ Granular Israeli address & GPS — Captures city, neighborhood, street, addressNumber, plus exact latitude and longitude.
• ✅ Built-in seller lead segmentation — Outputs contactName and merchant ("true" vs "false") on every listing so you can separate private sellers from real estate agents immediately.
• ✅ Full media extraction — Collects imageCount, up to 30 high-resolution images URLs (|-separated), and videoUrl when a video tour is attached.
• ✅ Optional deep detail enrichment (includeDetails) — Enable includeDetails: true to fetch the full multi-paragraph property description, total building floors (totalFloor), and move-in dateOfEntry.
• ✅ Zero-config fallback — Run with empty startUrls and the actor automatically samples both realestate/forsale and realestate/rent.

🎯 Use cases

1. Real Estate Agencies & Buyer/Seller Brokers

• Daily FSBO lead lists: Schedule the actor every morning on your target cities, filter merchant == "false", and route new private-owner listings (contactName, street, neighborhood, price, url) straight into your brokerage CRM.
• Mandate comps: Pull every active 4-room and 5-room listing in a specific neighborhood (e.g., Ramat Aviv, Florentin, Rehavia, Carmel) to show sellers realistic comparable asking prices.

2. Property Investors, Flippers & Family Offices

• Undervalued asset discovery: Compute price_numeric / squareMeters per neighborhood and flag listings priced >15% below the neighborhood median.
• Gross rental yield heatmaps: Run parallel pulls on realestate/forsale and realestate/rent across Beer Sheva, Haifa, Netanya, Ashkelon, and Petah Tikva to rank neighborhoods by annual rent divided by purchase price.

3. Banks, Appraisers (שמאי מקרקעין) & Mortgage Advisors

• Automated Valuation Models (AVM): Feed historical snapshots of asking prices, room counts, floor levels, building heights (totalFloor), and GPS coordinates into regression and ML valuation pipelines.
• Appraisal comparables: Export clean Excel tables of active comparables within a 500-meter radius using latitude and longitude.

4. Relocation Services & Overseas Buyer Platforms

• English/French/Russian buyer portals: Ingest live Yad2 inventory via API, translate title, subtitle, neighborhood, and description downstream, and power international property search portals for Anglo and diaspora buyers.

📥 Input parameters

Configure the scraper using the visual form in Apify Console or pass a JSON payload via the API. All fields are optional.

Parameter	Type	Default	Prefill	Description
startUrls	array<string>	For-sale + Rent	["https://www.yad2.co.il/realestate/forsale"]	One or more Yad2 real estate search URLs. Apply any filters on yad2.co.il (city, neighborhood, price range, rooms, m², property type) and copy the address-bar URL. Leave empty to sample both for-sale and for-rent listings.
maxItems	integer	200	100	Maximum total listings to extract across all startUrls. Set to 1000+ for deep sweeps or 0 for unlimited.
includeDetails	boolean	false	false	When true, fetches each listing's full text description, total building floors (totalFloor), and dateOfEntry. Leave false for maximum speed and lowest cost.
proxyConfiguration	object	Residential IL	Residential IL	Proxy settings. An Israel (IL) residential proxy is pre-configured by default and required for Yad2 access.

How to build filtered Yad2 search URLs

1. Open yad2.co.il/realestate/forsale (for sale) or yad2.co.il/realestate/rent (for rent).
2. Select your desired filters in the Yad2 search bar — e.g., City (תל אביב יפו), Neighborhood, Property Type, Rooms (3–5), Price range, or Square Meters.
3. Copy the resulting URL from your browser's address bar (including all query parameters like ?city=5000&rooms=3-5&price=2000000-5000000).
4. Paste one or more URLs into startUrls. The scraper preserves every filter parameter and paginates through all matching pages automatically.

🔁 Pagination & scale

The Yad2 Real Estate Scraper is engineered for both rapid sampling and high-volume 1,000+ listing sweeps:

1. Multi-page feed traversal: For every search URL in startUrls, the actor reads the total available pages (total_pages) and automatically iterates through page=1, 2, 3, … until the search is exhausted or maxItems is reached.
2. Cross-page & cross-URL deduplication: Promoted listings on Yad2 often repeat across pages. The actor tracks every seen link_token / adNumber in memory and emits 0% duplicate rows.
3. Empty-streak protection: If a deeply paginated search begins returning only already-seen ads for 3 consecutive pages, the actor cleanly advances to your next search URL without wasting proxy traffic.
4. Default multi-category balancing: When launched without startUrls, the actor splits your maxItems budget evenly between realestate/forsale and realestate/rent so you get a balanced dataset across both transaction types.

💡 Best Practices & Pro Tips

• Filter on Yad2 first for laser-targeted runs: Apply city, neighborhood, room count, or price filters directly on yad2.co.il and copy the full URL into startUrls. Every query parameter is preserved during pagination.
• Leave includeDetails: false for fast market sweeps: The main feed already includes price, rooms, squareMeters, floor, city, neighborhood, street, latitude, longitude, contactName, merchant, and all images. Only enable includeDetails: true when you specifically need the long-form text description or totalFloor.
• Segment FSBO leads instantly: Filter merchant == "false" in Excel, Google Sheets, or SQL to isolate private homeowners from brokerage listings.
• Keep the default Israel (IL) residential proxy enabled: Yad2 geo-restricts access to Israeli residential IPs. The actor comes pre-configured with apifyProxyCountry: "IL".
• Note on opening item URLs in a browser: Each record includes the canonical https://www.yad2.co.il/item/{token} URL, which opens normally in an Israeli browser session. Enable includeDetails: true if you want the actor to extract the full item text directly into your dataset.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

How many listings can I scrape in a single run?

You can extract 1,000+ listings (or set maxItems: 0 for unlimited) in a single run. The scraper automatically paginates through every available result page for each URL in startUrls.

How fast is the scraper?

In default feed mode (includeDetails: false), the actor typically collects 100–200 listings in 15–30 seconds and 400+ listings in under a minute. Enabling includeDetails: true fetches each listing's individual detail payload and takes ~35–45 seconds per 30 listings.

Does it include seller phone numbers?

Yad2 masks phone numbers behind an interactive challenge on the website. However, the scraper extracts contactName (~100% fill) and the merchant flag (true/false) on every listing, plus the full property address, coordinates, and direct url for outreach and cross-referencing.

How do I get the full Hebrew property description and total building floors?

Set includeDetails: true in the input. The actor will query the item detail endpoint for every scraped listing and populate description, totalFloor, and dateOfEntry.

Can I scrape both For-Sale and For-Rent listings at the same time?

Yes. Add both https://www.yad2.co.il/realestate/forsale and https://www.yad2.co.il/realestate/rent (or city-filtered versions of both) to startUrls. Each output row includes category (realestate/forsale or realestate/rent).

Why are street or addressNumber blank on some rows?

Core fields (adNumber, title, subtitle, price, city, squareMeters, latitude, longitude, contactName, merchant, images, url) populate on ~98–100% of records. Granular address fields (neighborhood ~92%, street ~84%, addressNumber ~62%) depend on whether the seller chose to disclose the exact street number when posting the ad.

What happens if I run the actor with empty inputs?

If startUrls is left empty, the actor automatically falls back to sampling both realestate/forsale and realestate/rent so a zero-config test run always delivers a clean, representative dataset.

Which export formats and integrations are supported?

You can download results directly as JSON, JSONL, CSV, Excel (XLSX), HTML, XML, or RSS, or connect the dataset to Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, n8n, Airbyte, Snowflake, BigQuery, or PostgreSQL via Apify integrations and webhooks.
