Use Case

Real Estate Listings

Capture property listing pages for real estate portals. Archive listings and create visual property catalogs.

Overview

Real estate moves fast. Listings appear and disappear daily. Prices change. Photos get updated. For agents, investors, and proptech companies, having a visual record of listings is invaluable for market analysis, client presentations, and historical tracking.

Screenshotly captures property listing pages at scale. Monitor MLS feeds, Zillow, Realtor.com, or any listing portal. Archive the complete listing state—photos, price, description—as a single image. Track price reductions over time. Build visual comparables for client presentations.

Full-page capture is essential for real estate since listing pages are typically long with multiple photos, descriptions, and neighborhood information. Our AI cleanup removes chat widgets and cookie banners that clutter listing pages, leaving you with clean, professional archives.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I capture MLS listing pages automatically?

Yes. Feed MLS listing URLs into the API via a script or workflow tool. Capture each listing with fullPage: true to get all photos, details, and maps. Store results by listing ID for easy retrieval.

How do I capture property listings with all images loaded?

Use the delay parameter (3-5 seconds) or waitForNetworkIdle: true to ensure all high-resolution property photos finish loading before the screenshot is taken. Lazy-loaded images are handled by the full-page scroll.

What format is best for real estate listing screenshots?

PNG for archival quality, JPEG at 85% quality for sharing with clients. Full-page captures in PNG can be large for image-heavy listings, so JPEG or WebP is more practical for email attachments.

Can I use screenshots for virtual property tours?

Screenshots capture a static snapshot of the listing page. For virtual tours, capture multiple sections of the page or combine full-page screenshots with annotations to create visual walkthroughs.
