search to find listings within a 5 mile radius of your client’s office, or any other location.

1. Select Searches from the menu bar, and then select the type of search
that best suits your needs (standard, radius, map, address, etc.)

2. Enter your search criteria (Enter criteria only in fields that you want to
narrow your search by. Leaving a field blank is equivalent of including all
options for that field. An alert will display if your criteria does not meet the
minimum guidelines)
