If you've ever spent an afternoon flicking between Rightmove tabs trying to compare properties, you already know the problem. Rightmove is great for browsing, but it doesn't give you any way to download your search results into a spreadsheet. There's no "Export" button, no CSV download, no API for normal users.
This guide shows you how to get Rightmove listings into Excel (or Google Sheets) in under a minute, using a free Chrome extension.
Why export Rightmove to Excel?
Having property data in a spreadsheet lets you do things that are impossible on Rightmove's website:
- Sort and filter — rank by price per square foot, filter by council tax band, or find all 3-beds under £500k in seconds.
- Compare side by side — see 50 properties in one view instead of clicking through individual listings.
- Calculate — add your own columns for mortgage costs, rental yield, commute distance, or any metric you care about.
- Share — send a clean spreadsheet to your partner, mortgage broker, or investment group rather than a list of links.
- Track over time — re-export weekly and compare to see what's new, what's sold, and what's dropped in price.
Step-by-step: Rightmove to Excel
Install the Chrome extension
Add Export Rightmove to CSV from the Chrome Web Store. It's free, takes about 5 seconds, and requires no account or sign-up.
Run your Rightmove search
Go to rightmove.co.uk and search for properties as you normally would. Set your location, price range, bedrooms, and any other filters. The extension works on both property-for-sale and property-to-rent pages.
Click the extension and scan
Click the RightmoveCSV icon in your Chrome toolbar, then hit Scan Page. The extension reads every listing on the page and shows you a preview with the number of properties detected.
Choose XLSX format and pick your columns
Select XLSX from the format dropdown to get a native Excel file. You can also choose CSV if you prefer. Toggle individual columns on or off — address, price, bedrooms, property type, agent, and more.
Enable Deep Scrape for extra data (optional)
Toggle on Deep Scrape to pull additional details from each listing page: floor area (sqft and sqm), tenure, council tax band, nearest station, agent phone number, and price per square foot. This takes a few extra seconds but gives you significantly richer data.
Export and open in Excel
Click Export. The file downloads immediately. Open it in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, or Apple Numbers — it's properly formatted with headers and clean data, ready for analysis.
What data do you get?
A basic scan gives you everything visible on the search results page: address, postcode, display price, numeric price (for sorting), bedrooms, property type, listing URL, estate agent name, date listed or reduced, key features, and a timestamp.
With Deep Scrape enabled, you also get: full description, tenure (freehold/leasehold), floor area in sqft and sqm, council tax band, nearest station with distance, agent phone number, image count, listing ID, calculated price per sqft, and latitude/longitude coordinates.
Tips for working with the data in Excel
Once you have the data in Excel, a few things are worth doing straight away. Use the Price (Numeric) column for sorting and filtering — it's a clean number without currency symbols. If you've deep scraped, the Price per sqft column is excellent for spotting value — sort ascending to find the cheapest properties per square foot in your area.
You can also use Excel's conditional formatting to highlight price drops (check the "Added/Reduced" column for "Reduced" entries), or create a pivot table grouped by property type to see average prices across flats, terraced houses, and detached homes.
