Finding Instant Equity & Motivated Sellers on Zillow

Manually clicking through Zillow map pins to compare the Asking Price against the Zestimate and Rent Zestimate takes hours per zip code.

This 128 MB Zillow Task extracts both valuation metrics in bulk so you can immediately run two quantitative screens in Excel or Google Sheets:

Instant Equity Screen: (zestimate - price) / zestimate > 0.08 (Properties listed 8%+ below Zillow’s automated valuation model).
Stale Listing Screen: daysOnZillow >= 45 (Sellers whose listings have gone stale and are prime candidates for below-ask cash offers).

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:

Property Address	Asking Price	Zestimate	Est. Monthly Rent	Days on Market
2408 E 9th St, Austin, TX 78702	549000	618000	3450	47
8904 Brodie Ln, Austin, TX 78745	415000	459000	2680	62

How I Wire This Into an Automated Pipeline

1. Run Zillow Search Task (Apify Console (misterkhan/zillow-scraper)): Extracts active FOR_SALE listings with both Zestimate and Rent Zestimate fields populated.
2. Filter Motivated Sellers (Google Sheets / Clay): Filter properties where (Zestimate - Asking Price) / Zestimate >= 8% AND daysOnZillow >= 45.
3. Export to Deal Machine / PropStream / CRM (Webhook / CSV): Route motivated seller addresses and listing agent contacts to your acquisition team.
