python3 scripts/immoscout24-search.py --region /de/bayern/passau-kreis --type housebuy --max-price 350000 --format json > /tmp/is24-house.json
- Get expose details for interesting listings to check heating type:
python3 scripts/immoscout24-search.py --expose 166875438 --format json
-
Filter based on heating, condition, energy rating, parking.
-
Compile report with URLs, prices, heating info, and location details.
Notes
- Uses IS24 mobile API (
api.mobile.immobilienscout24.de) — no browser or authentication needed - Rate limiting is lenient but don't hammer it — add small delays between expose lookups
- Listing URLs follow pattern:
https://www.immobilienscout24.de/expose/{id} - Search returns: id, title, price, area, rooms, address, postcode, published date
- Expose returns: full details including heating, energy, parking, condition, year built
