Unlisted (off-market) property search lives at Property Search in the sidebar — the /unlisted-properties/search page your dashboard opens by default after login. You geographically narrow results from the Advanced Property Search dialog using County, City, and ZIP Code. There is no draw-a-shape map tool; location is keyed to those three fields, with County as the anchor.
Open Advanced Search and set the county
- On the search page, click Filters (desktop) or Advanced Filters (mobile) to open the Advanced Property Search dialog.
- In the Geographic Area section at the top, use the County type-ahead. Type at least two characters, then pick a
County, Stateresult. County is marked with a red asterisk and is required. - Click View Properties to run the search.
If you skip the county, the View Properties button stays disabled and shows a "Please select a county" toast — nothing runs. The Location entry in the left rail also shows a pulsing red dot until a county is chosen.
Narrow inside the county with City and ZIP
City and ZIP are optional fields that tighten an already-selected county:
| Field | Behavior | Example |
|---|---|---|
| County (required) | Single county per search, selected from the type-ahead. | Delaware, PA |
| City | Free-text city name match. | Lansdowne |
| ZIP Code | Free-text; the box hints at multiple ZIPs separated by commas. | 19050, 19082 |
You select one county at a time, so to cover several counties, save each as its own search and switch between them.
The address bar is not a location filter
The search box at the top of the page (placeholder Address Search) is a single-property lookup — it autocompletes a street address and opens that property's detail popup. It does not filter the result set by area. Use the Advanced Property Search dialog for county, city, and ZIP filtering.
About a "custom map polygon"
Unlisted Search does not include a draw-a-polygon or lasso-an-area tool. The map (toggle Map from the view switcher) plots your county/city/ZIP results and outlines an individual parcel's boundary when you open it, but it does not let you sketch a freehand search region. To approximate a tighter area, combine the required County with one or more ZIP codes, or with a City name.
Run, reset, and save
- View Properties applies all Geographic Area and other filters together.
- Reset All clears the form, including the county.
- Save stores the current criteria as a named saved search.
To keep a county/city/ZIP combination as a reusable, alertable search, see save a property search as a reusable list. If a tight ZIP-level filter returns nothing, check troubleshoot zero-result property searches — an overly narrow ZIP inside a small county is the most common cause. Once you have results, you can add search results to a property list.
