Saved Criteria
TorontoMLS allows you to save your search criteria in most listing searches
(not Map Search, see note, below). Use the saved criteria (in its original
form or modified) for subsequent searches.
Criteria saved for a particular listing search is available for similar
listing searches. Due to the unique nature of the different searches,
however, search fields for one search type may not be available for another
search type.
Saving, and Using Saved Search Criteria
Criteria saved in one class can be used to search a different class
(e.g., criteria saved in the Residential Freehold class of a Quick Search
can be used in the Residential Condo & Other class of a Flex Search).
Carefully review the new search before submitting it, to confirm that
vital search fields not common to the two classes are properly specified.
If a field is present in the saved search and not in the new search
(because either the class or search type is different), that search text
is not available in the new search. If the new search has required fields
that aren't available in the saved search, you must enter these.
Be sure the search fields and text make sense in the new class before
submitting your search.
NOTE for Flex Searches: TMLS displays the saved search fields and corresponding
text at the bottom half of the page, in the Search Criteria box. Carefully
examine this information in light of the new search. If a field in the
saved search is not available in the new search, TMLS deletes it from
the criteria. If the new search has required fields that aren't available
in the saved search, you must select and enter these.
- After entering your search criteria, go to the
Save Criteria As text box.
- Enter a name for your search.
- Click Save.
- At the confirmation prompt, click OK.
- At Use Saved
Criteria, select the
name of the saved search criteria from the drop-down list.
- Click Use.
- The text appears in preview format at the new
search page. Verify the accuracy of the criteria for the new search. Use
the criteria as presented or modify it.
- Click Submit.
If you modify saved criteria, you can save the modified criteria as
a new and unique search, keeping the original search intact. Alternatively,
you can replace the original saved search with the modified one.
- To save the modified criteria as a unique search,
choose a new name and enter it at the Save Criteria As text box. Then
click Save. At the confirmation prompt, click OK.
- To replace the original search with the modified
version use the same name as the original search. Then click Save.
When prompted to overwrite the original search, click OK. Then click OK
at the confirmation prompt.
- At any search page, at Use
Saved Criteria, select
the name of the saved search criteria from the drop-down list.
- Click Delete.
- At the confirmation prompt, click OK
to delete the saved criteria, or Cancel
to maintain the saved criteria.
- At the final confirmation
prompt, click OK.
