At its homepage, realestate.com.au is protected by Kasada, Rate limiting. Typical approach to reach it reliably: Unblocker (signed-payload VM). Difficulty is per-URL, so deep pages — profiles, listings, search — are usually harder.
Signs requests with a closed in-browser JS VM (e.g. TikTok, Kasada, Shape) — generic transport tooling won't do.

Homepage-level, datacenter-IP snapshot, June 13, 2026.
This is a homepage-level snapshot and can be inaccurate or out of date — anti-bot vendors update their models continuously, deep pages are usually more protected than the homepage, and difficulty is IP-sensitive: a site can read differently from a clean vs a flagged IP and even flip over time. Treat it as a directional signal, not a guarantee.
The homepage is the open front door. On a real estate site the valuable pages behave differently — here's the plan to characterise realestate.com.au before you build.

Find a real deep URL cheaply from the site’s robots.txt and sitemap.xml, then run each through the anti-bot checker. This is an advisory based on the category and realestate.com.au’s homepage result — detect the wall, never try to pass a login.
