Encuentra24 Data Parser & API

Encuentra24 is the leading multi-country marketplace across Central America — #1 in Panama and Costa Rica and active in the Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, El Salvador, and Guatemala — and PropAPIS extracts its sales, rental, and new-build data through a single REST API. Cover an underserved Central-American / Caribbean region with little scraper competition.

Platform Overview

Market Position

• #1 in Panama & Costa Rica: The multi-country Central-American leader (Encuentra24 )
• Six-Country Footprint: PA, CR, DR, NI, SV, GT from one marketplace stack (SimilarWeb )
• ~Thousands per Country: Real-estate inventory across each market (~estimate)
• Low Anti-Bot: Largely unprotected — among the easiest LatAm targets and little competition

Ownership Cluster

Encuentra24 is an independent classifieds-style marketplace, separate from both the Navent family and Grupo OLX. In Central America its main portal rival is Compreoalquile (a Navent-family Panama portal). Because Encuentra24 spans six countries on one stack, a single PropAPIS integration covers a whole underserved region — a greenfield opportunity flagged in our research, especially after Point2 Homes exited the Caribbean in July 2024.

New-Build Launches

New-build / off-plan (“preventa” / “proyectos”) is a significant segment across LatAm. As a classifieds-style marketplace, Encuentra24 carries developer and resale listings alongside rentals, commercial, and land, though fields are less normalized than on Navent portals.

Market Coverage

• New-build: Off-plan and developer listings
• Resale: Existing residential properties for purchase
• Rental (long-term): Residential leases
• Commercial: Offices, retail, and business properties
• Land: Lots and development sites
• Multi-Country: Panama, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala

Data Fields Available

PropAPIS extracts the available fields from each Encuentra24 listing. As a classifieds-style marketplace, fields are more free-text and geo is weaker than on Navent portals:

Property Information

• Address: Property location and area
• Price: Asking price or rent (USD / local currency)
• Area: Built / total area in m² (where provided)
• Bedrooms, Bathrooms
• Property Type: Apartment, house, land, commercial
• Sale vs Rental: Listing operation type

Listing Details

• Description: Full free-text description
• Photos: Image URLs

Seller & Location

• Agent / Seller: Name and contact details
• Country, City, and area
