Why DIY Idealista Scrapers Always Get Blocked by Datadome

Idealista protects .com (Spain), .pt (Portugal), and .it (Italy) with aggressive Datadome TLS + behavioral fingerprinting. Standard Python requests, Playwright, or datacenter proxies get hit with a Slider CAPTCHA on page 1.

Our 128 MB Idealista Task routes requests through a warm anti-detect browser pool with automatic European residential rotation—so you pay a flat $0.75 per 1,000 listings without buying expensive third-party residential proxy bandwidth.

Sample Output Dataset (From My Live Test Run)

Below is a sanitized slice of the actual dataset returned when running this task preset on Apify. You can export the full run directly as CSV, Excel (.xlsx), or JSON:

Listing Title	Price (EUR)	Area (m²)	Rooms	District / City
Piso en Calle de Serrano, Recoletos, Salamanca, Madrid	980000	118	3	Madrid - Salamanca
Ático en Chamberí - Trafalgar, Madrid	645000	88	2	Madrid - Chamberí

How I Wire This Into an Automated Pipeline

1. Select Country (es / it / pt) & City (Apify Console (misterkhan/idealista-scraper)): Bypasses Idealista Datadome protection automatically using our managed residential session pool.
2. Compute Yield & Price/m² Outliers (Airtable / Python): Compare asking €/m² by district (e.g., Salamanca vs. Chamberí) to spot distressed sales.
3. Sync to Investor Deal Portal (Webhook / Notion): Publish curated undervalued properties to your private client deal room.
