Step-by-Step Instructions
If you had another Saved Search with a desired drawn shape but without an Available filter, you can first run the search, set an Available filter, then save it using the Save button or from the Saved Searches screen to achieve the same outcome quickly.
Otherwise, follow the complete instructions below to start from scratch.
1. Go to the Browse tab
If the Browse tab icon in the lower-left corner of your screen is not highlighted in purple, you are on a different tab. Tap the Browse tab icon to switch tabs.
2. Tap the Filter button
The Filter button is at the upper-left corner of your screen. Tap it to open the Filters screen.
3. Make sure the Available filter is active
The Available filter is located at the top of the Filters sheet. It is the first filter option under the STATUS section, and is active by default.
When this filter is active, its background is filled, and when it's not active, its background remains hollow. Toggle it on or off by tapping on the filter.
If the Sold and Delisted filters are on, remember to toggle them off to exclude Sold and Delisted listings.
When you’re certain that the Available filter is on, tap Done at the upper-right corner of your screen to dismiss the Filters sheet.
You can also quickly toggle the Available filter on or off from the Browse tab.
Begin by sliding your finger slightly to the left on the Filters ribbon bar, located beneath the search bar. Here, you'll come across an Available item. If the filter's background is filled, tap it to turn it off. To turn it on, tap it once more.
4. Adjust the map view zoom level, then save your search
