Get an alert when a new rental appears on Rightmove, Realtor.com or Otodom (feed mode + webhook)

Description and use

The automation recipe builds a scheduled scrape that tracks new listings on Rightmove, Realtor.com, and Otodom, and instantly posts alerts to Slack or Discord.

Problem

Flat hunters need instant alerts for new listings across multiple portals, but portal emails cannot be routed to team channels or integrated into custom code.

Outcome

The recipe delivers cost‑effective alerts ($0.0008–$0.0012 per listing) and allows users to route notifications to team channels instantly.

Workflow

• Define search parameters in JSON for each portal
• Run the Actor once manually to confirm output
• Schedule the Actor to run periodically
• Configure the Actor to use onlyNewListings and alertWebhookUrl
• Receive alerts in Slack/Discord when new listings are found

Evidence

Flat hunting is a race against everyone else who set up the same search. Portals send their own e‑mail alerts, but you cannot route them to a team channel or feed them into your own code.

Source

This tutorial builds the alert yourself: a scheduled scrape that remembers what it has already shown you, returns only new listings, and posts a summary to Slack or Discord the moment something new appears.

Source

You pay only for listings delivered. In feed mode, listings you have already seen are neither saved nor charged, which keeps a daily alert cheap.

Source

The first run in feed mode returns everything that matches, so run it from your terminal before scheduling anything.
