Apartments.com Data Parser & API
Apartments.com is the largest US rental portal — >1M rental listings and ~26M average monthly visitors — and PropAPIS extracts its unit-level rents, floor plans, availability, and amenities through a single REST API. Access live rental inventory, per-unit pricing, fee and pet policies, and property-manager details without building or maintaining a scraper.
Apartments.com is owned by CoStar Group, and PropAPIS’s CoStar-cluster coverage means one integration spans several CoStar portals — Apartments.com, LoopNet, and Homes.com — under a single corporate data stack.
