daft.set_listing_type(SaleType.PROPERTIES)
daft.set_min_price(150000)
daft.set_max_price(175000)
daft.set_sort_order(SortOrder.ASCENDING)
daft.set_sort_by(SortType.PRICE)


listings = daft.get_listings()

for listing in listings:
    print(listing.get_formalised_address())
    print(listing.get_daft_link())
    print(listing.get_price())
