Compare / Zillow API
Zillow retired its public API (the ZWSID/GetSearchResults API) back in 2021, there is no official Zillow listings API anymore. Developers who search “zillow api” today are looking for a way to get that data. HousingFeed is the closest thing to a working Zillow rental API: we collect Zillow rental listings and serve them alongside 60+ other sources.

|---|---|---|
| Official public API | Yes, one documented endpoint | Discontinued in 2021 |
| Zillow rental listings | Yes, scraped & normalized for you | No public access |
| Other sources | 60+ platforms & portals in one schema | Zillow only (when it existed) |
| Coverage | US + 29 more countries | US |
| Delivery | Bulk JSON, filter by city/rent/beds/platform | — |
| Pricing | Pay-per-use, free tier to try | — |
You need Zillow rental listings (address, rent, beds, photos, source URL) plus 60+ other sources in one feed, a practical replacement for the API Zillow shut down.
You specifically need Zillow's Zestimate® valuation, that number is proprietary to Zillow and no third party can legitimately reproduce it.
No scrapers, no proxies, filter the feed and get JSON back:
HousingFeedcurl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/housingfeed~rental-listings-api/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"country":"US","maxItems":100}'Yes. Zillow shut down its public API — the ZWSID / GetSearchResults endpoints — in 2021, and there is no official Zillow listings API today. Any “Zillow API” you find now is an unofficial scraper, not a supported Zillow product.
Zillow deprecated its public listings API in 2021. Tutorials or listings that mention a Zillow API returning in 2023 or 2024 are out of date — no official public endpoint has come back since.
Yes. HousingFeed is the practical replacement: we collect Zillow rental listings and serve them through one documented API alongside 60+ other property platforms and portals, all in the same JSON schema, with coverage across 30 countries.
