What is different about Apartments.com
How Apartments.com localises, limits and checks traffic, and what that means for your setup.
CoStar protects its data
Apartments.com belongs to CoStar Group, which is known for actively protecting its listing data. Keep strictly to low-volume checks of public pages and your own listings.
Licensed data for bulk
If you need rent data for whole markets, use a licensed rental data product rather than collecting pages. That is the route for anything beyond a few comps.
Your listing is an ad
What displays on your listing comes from your advertising account and feeds. Fix errors there; proxies only show you the renter's view.
Which proxy fits Apartments.com?
Our recommendation for Apartments.com, and when the second option is the better choice.
Best fit
Renters search by city and neighbourhood, and a local view is what you want to verify. Rotating residential proxies with US city targeting let a leasing team see their listings and nearby comps as a renter in that city would.
starting from$0.63/GB
Residential IPs in 190+ countries with country, state and city targeting. Rotate on every request or hold a sticky session for up to 90 minutes; GB never expire.
Also works
Teams that sign in to manage their own listings should use one static US ISP proxy per person or office, so the account always sees the same location.
starting from$0.75/IP
Dedicated static IPs registered to US and Canadian ISPs. The address stays the same for as long as you hold it, with unlimited bandwidth and HTTP(S) or SOCKS5 access.
