How to Conduct a Search Based on a Particular Place

If you want to move close to a particular venue you can find listings nearby using our built in Find Places search. Above the left sidebar are three tabs. Click the one on the right that says Find Places. If you need help at anytime, there are instructions and tips just below the search area. Type in the place that you want to live near and then click Search. I’ll search Hospitals in Miami for this example.

The system will return the first eight search results. If you click Map Results, the map will zoom in as close as it can while still keeping the search results on the page. Select any place from the list to find it on the map.

You can also use the Search Map Area(s) tool, located in the top right corner of the map, to help you find listings in the neighborhoods surrounding the hospitals. For more on how to use the Search Map Area(s) tool see the video “How To Conduct A Search Using The Map”.

Searching by Place could be used by older couples who want to live close to a hospital, families & college students who want to live close to a certain school, or people looking to move closer to where they work or go to church.
