Kenbiya Scraper — Japan Investment Property (建美家)

Scrape investment-property listings from Kenbiya (建美家) — Japan's #2 investor real-estate portal after Rakumachi. Returns structured data on yield, monthly rent, occupancy, building structure, and listing broker for ~20,000–40,000 active listings.

This actor is the broker-side companion to our Rakumachi retail-investor scraper. Together they cover the full Japanese income-property market.

Pricing

Pay-Per-Event via Apify's standard PPE profile:

• $0.10 per actor start
• $0.001 per record returned

Resuming a large crawl

Every run emits a resumeCursor in its Output. If a large crawl stops before it finishes — because it hit maxItems, your spend cap (maxTotalChargeUsd), or was aborted — start a new run with the same input plus that resumeCursor to continue from where it left off. The crawl resumes from the queued work the previous run didn't reach.

• You are not re-charged for records the earlier run already delivered.
• Resume within your account's run-retention window — on the free tier, roughly your 10 most recent runs. Once the source run is pruned, its resumeCursor is no longer valid.
• resumeCursor is opaque — supply it unmodified.
