The Flexmls map can help you customize and save a search in a hard-to-plot geographic area on the map. The polygon shape, located on the Flexmls map toolbar, allows you to focus-in on properties in a specific area. Some examples are near a highway, a specific neighborhood or body water.
The polygon is for freehand drawing for irregular boundary lines. Using the polygon shape will allow you to see the results that might not be possible by using the search template or filter options alone.
How to draw a polygon for searching
Navigate to your toolbar at the bottom of the map. Find the polygon shape and click to activate the shape. Begin drawing by dragging the mouse and click once each time you want to change direction. Double-click once your shape is complete.
How to save a polygon for searching
Just like with the template, you can save a search made with the polygon. Navigate to the Save icon at the top. Choose the Save Search option, give the search a name and click Save. Feel free to email the results to your clients, edit in the future or review the polygon search another time. It will be saved in the Saved Search section of your Flexmls menu.
