ForSaleByOwner Featured Listings Scraper

Scrapes the rotating featured FSBO listings from the ForSaleByOwner.com homepage. Returns up to ~20 active listings per run with address, price, beds, baths, sqft, property type, listing image URL, seller name, and detail URL.

What it does

The scraper fetches the ForSaleByOwner.com homepage (server-rendered Next.js, no JavaScript execution required) and extracts all featured listing cards from the homepage carousel. Each run captures the current set of featured FSBO listings.

Notes

• The homepage features approximately 20 FSBO listings at any given time. This set rotates — re-running the actor at different times returns different listings.
• Detail pages are React-rendered and are not scraped by this actor. Use the url field to navigate to a listing's detail page.
• No proxy required — the site is fully accessible without authentication or IP rotation.
• Typical run completes in under 10 seconds.
