Ilaan Data Parser & API

Ilaan is a Pakistan property portal with an affordability / mid-income focus and verified agents — and PropAPIS extracts its resale, rental, new-build and commercial listings through a single REST API. Cover Pakistan’s mid-market inventory without building or maintaining a scraper.
