## Using the Search Bar

The Search Bar provides a quick and simple way to locate properties in our system.

1. Click the Search Bar and type all or a portion of: a property's address; a name; block & lot; or an APN/PIN. You can also conduct an advanced search. [Click here](/extras/glossary.md#advanced-search-criteria-definitions) for details.
2. Use the tabs on the left to specify what you're searching for.\
   Any related results appear below the Search Bar.
3. Click on a result to open the related Property Page.

{% hint style="info" %}
When you initiate a search from the Street Map Page, the platform remains on the Street Map and displays the location of the searched property. When you initiate a search on any other page, clicking a desired property takes you to the Property Page, where all available information about the searched property is displayed.
{% endhint %}
