Question: is it possible to pull data by municipality name, property type and land size? about mls-real-estate-scraper-for-realtor.ca

Hey Dan! Thanks for the feedback and the awesome question. Happy to help

See this screenshot - this is the payload sent to realtor.ca's PropertySearch_Post API endpoint.

As you can see, there's two fields that can provide the information you need.

Firstly, LandSizeRange. I've mapped out the following values for the land-size so you can find what you need.

Land Size Range	LandSizeRange
0 - 1/4 Acre	LandSizeRange: 0-0.25
1/4 - 1/2 Acre	LandSizeRange: 0.25-0.5
1/2 - 1 Acre	LandSizeRange: 0.5-1
1+ Acre	LandSizeRange: 1-0
2+ Acre	LandSizeRange: 2-0

Secondly, PropertySearchTypeId will give you the property type you want.

Property Type	PropertySearchTypeId
Any commercial	PropertySearchTypeId: 0
Residential	PropertySearchTypeId: 1
Recreational	PropertySearchTypeId: 2
Condo	PropertySearchTypeId: 3
Vacant land	PropertySearchTypeId: 6
Multi-Family	PropertySearchTypeId: 8

I've tested both of these additions to the query, and they work.

As for your final question, you should be able to specify the municipality as an argument to get_property_list_by_city(). Is that what you mean, or did I misunderstand?

I'm happy to hear this library is helping the NCC! Please don't hesitate if you have any more questions.
