Ideal Customer Profile (ICP)
Who they are: A PropTech platform, portal, or investment/analytics team that needs reliable, structured housing-market data to power a product, report, or investment decision.
Core pain points:
Listing data is scattered across portals with inconsistent formats.
No clean view of inventory, price cuts, or days-on-market over time.
Building and maintaining scrapers in-house pulls engineers off the core product.
What success looks like: A single, clean, daily feed of listings and price movements they can build on — without running the scraping themselves.
The Client (anonymized)
The client is a real-estate technology company that surfaces market insights to its users. Identifying details are withheld; all figures below are illustrative.
The Challenge
The client's product depended on fresh listing data, but sourcing it was a constant drain. Portals changed layouts, listings appeared and disappeared, and price cuts — a key signal for their users — were easy to miss without day-over-day comparison. Their small engineering team was spending more time maintaining scrapers than improving the product.
Three gaps stood out: inconsistent data across portals, no reliable days-on-market or price-cut tracking, and no continuity when a listing briefly vanished and returned.
The Solution
Actowiz built a managed listing-intelligence pipeline:
Structured daily listings — price, location, size, type, and status, normalized across portals into one schema.
Price-cut & days-on-market tracking — day-over-day comparison flags reductions and measures how long listings sit.
Continuity handling — a listing that briefly disappears is retained and flagged, not treated as new when it returns.
Trend rollups — median price, inventory, and price-cut share by area, ready for the client's dashboards.

FAQ
What real-estate data can be collected?
Listing price, location, size, type, status, price changes, and days-on-market across major portals.
How is listing continuity handled?
Listings that briefly disappear are retained and flagged, so returning listings aren't mistaken for new ones.
