A Few Tips to Help Improve Your Search

IMPORTANT…IMPORTANT…IMPORTANT!!

Let me mention first that it is very important that you save at least one

search if you want the system to send you automated emails of new

listings, price changes, etc. This must be done so the system can set

the parameters of your desired properties.

Save Your Searches

While there are several ways to “save” searches on our website, the most common

“save” option can be seen in the window below. Note the “Save Search” button located in the

red oval.

Basic Searches

The graphic below illustrates one of the “basic” search widgets utilized on our

website. It is pretty intuitive but there are 2 areas that I’d like to mention. First,

across the top of the list box, please note that five (5) different types of searches can

be accessed. These will be explained in more detail later in the booklet and can be

found in the red oval below. Secondly, please note the red oval marking the drop

down list box, which is indicated here as “Single Family Residential.” This is where

you would select the “type” of property that interests you, such as Single Family

Residential, Lots and Land, Commercial, etc.

Advanced Searches

By selecting the “Advanced Search” form, you will find that you have many

more options to refine your search. My recommendation here is to leave your

searches as open as possible and choose less refining criteria, whenever possible. The

more criteria that is chosen, the more the output is restricted like a funnel. It is

surprising how quickly the properties available to be viewed are restricted to just a

few, or none.

The most important feature of this form (see below) is the drop down list box

in the red oval. This is where you select which of the three MLSs we represent that

you might want to search. The Three Rivers MLS primarily represents the

Washington area. Here you will find riverfront/creekfront properties and smaller

towns of 12,000 population or less. The Greenville/Pitt MLS primarily represents the

Greenville area. Greenville is a university city of 80,000+/- and is surrounded by

smaller towns. Greenville offers all the shopping, dining, medical, etc. that would be

expected here. The Crystal Coast MLS represents the Morehead City, Atlantic Beach,

Beaufort, Down East areas. Here you would find oceanfront/sound front and creek

front properties that would be expected in a coastal community.

Map Searches

By selecting the Map Search form, you will be able to search many areas of

Eastern NC on very detailed maps. Each individual listing is represented by a blue

pushpin-type icon. Clicking on a specific icon brings up a small window (illustrated on

next page), which offers a snippet of the properties information. From here, either

the details of the property, or the pictures associated with the property can be

accessed. Additionally, the property can be saved at this location. Please note the

map controls on the left side of the map (next page/see large red oval). While the

default location of this map is centered on Washington, the map can be moved with

the cursor to any area of Eastern NC by holding down the left mouse button and

dragging the map to the desired location. It also helps to use the above mentioned

controls to zoom out or otherwise control the maps.

Another helpful tip regarding map searches involves opening the property

“Details” or “Gallery” (next page/see red oval) in another tab. It has been brought to

my attention that if you search in any area other than the default map search

window, you will be carried back to the default search window after opening and

closing the “Details” or “Gallery” windows. This can be a little annoying if you have

several properties of interest in your new search area. To avoid this, always “right

click” on the “Details” or “Gallery” icons and select “Open in a new tab.” The new

tab will open with the desired detail information and can be closed without

compromising the adjusted search window. (See Map Search Graphic on next page).

The Address and Listing ID Searches are pretty self-explanatory. We will

continue to refine this booklet, as needed.
