Running and Managing Saved Searches

These instructions are intended to help advanced home search users understand how to run and modify their saved named searches.

List Saved Named Searches

A user can click on the "My Searches" tab to see a list of their saved searches. The user may save as many searches as they like, perhaps one for the neighborhood they currently live in, so they can see any new properties listed, and others for the neighborhoods they may be interested in moving to, perhaps with different price ranges and other criteria for each search.

Once the list of saved named searches is displayed, the user may click one of the links after the search name to run that search, edit its search criteria, or delete the search. If there is an expiration date for any automatic email alerts for the search, it will be shown at the end of that same line of the display.

View Search Details

Clicking the "View Search Details" link for any saved named search will display all of its search criteria, as in the example shown below. Click the "Close Window" button to return to the saved named search list.

Past Alerts

Clicking "Past Alerts" for any saved named search will display email alerts history for that search. Clicking any of the ".. Properties found" links will display those properties included in that specific past email alert. If a property has gone under contract or sold since that alert, it cannot be displayed.

Edit Alert

Clicking the "Edit Alert" link for the saved search will pop up a small panel that will allow the user to modify the description of the saved search, and the specifications of any automatic email alert that may be set up for that search. The name of the saved search can not be changed.
