Japan rental prices SUUMO/at_home/LIFULL cross-shop via Apify

Overview

AI-generated overview

Local MCP server that scrapes Tokyo 23-ward rental listings from SUUMO, at home and LIFULL HOME'S via Apify for cross-portal rent comparison.

What you can do
  • Collect rental listings for a chosen Tokyo 23 ward from SUUMO, at home and optionally LIFULL HOME'S, with limits on items and pages per source.
  • Return structured listing data: rent, management fee, deposit, layout, area, floor, address, stations and walking distance, building age and listing URL.
  • Tag each item with its source and shop so the same station or layout can be compared across portals.
  • Optionally route requests through an Apify proxy configuration.
When to use it
Useful when researching Tokyo rents, comparing the same station or layout across Japan's three main property portals, planning a move to Japan, or tracking ward-level rent trends over repeated runs.
Requirements
Runs as a local process (stdio) on the user's machine, packaged as an MCP bundle; the README also shows a Python launch command. Scraping is backed by an Apify actor, so an Apify account and its credentials are needed, and network access is required. No environment variables or headers are declared in the manifest.
Before you install
Scraping is billed per event by Apify (a per-run start fee plus a per-item fee), so repeated or large runs cost money. LIFULL HOME'S is described as sometimes blocked. Listings are collected from third-party portals, so their terms of use and rate limits apply. The README also points to external store and purchase links that are unrelated to running the server.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Japan Rent Market Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

Japan Rent Market — 3-Site Cross-Shop Comparison (SUUMO + at home + LIFULL HOME'S)

[Apify Store]

Compare Tokyo 23-ward rental prices across Japan's top 3 property portals in a single dataset.

Scrapes rental listings from SUUMO (スーモ) — Japan's #1 property portal — at home (アットホーム) — the #2 portal — and LIFULL HOME'S (ホームズ) — the #3 portal. Each item is tagged with its source so you can compare rent for the same station/layout across portals.

Why this is useful

  • Cross-portal price comparison — the same 1DK near Shibuya station often differs by 5-20% between portals
  • Market research — track Tokyo rent trends by ward over time
  • Relocation planning — find the best-priced listing before moving to Japan
  • Investment analysis — identify underpriced/overpriced areas
