Scraping Apartments.com is tough, but doable. I used Scrapy with a bunch of custom middleware to handle the anti-scraping measures.

One thing that helped was using a proxy service like Smartproxy. It’s not cheap, but it’s worth it if you’re scraping at scale.

If you’re looking for a pre-built solution, check out ParseHub. It’s a no-code scraper that might work for your needs.
