4) Use the Quick Search icons that make list building a cinch.

Note the top PROPERTY STATUS section and then also the 5 sections titled LISTING FILTERS, OWNERSHIP TYPE, FINANCIAL FILTERS, LAND TYPE AND LAND FILTERS that can be clicked on and opened up.
- The LISTING FILTERS section gives you additional filters for listed land based on the Active or Inactive selections.
- The OWNERSHIP TYPE section allows you to include or exclude the 4 types of owners from your list. Be default, all 4 types will be set to "No Preference".
- The FINANCIAL FILTERS section allows you to add in custom filters for Last Sale Date, Last Sale Price and Tax Value.
- The LAND TYPE section allows you to pick from Residential Land, Multi-Family Land, Agricultural Land or to search all. Note that Residential Land is the default selection.
- The LAND FILTERS section allows you to set minimum and maximum lot size parameters.
6) Once you have the criteria entered that you want, click the blue circle icon to run the search.
7) Your search results will be displayed 250 records per page.
If you would like to add or remove filters from your search, click the gray Return to Search button.
8) To select the results of your search and build the list, use the This Page or All Pages buttons to select the records you want and then click the blue Add to Lead List button.
9) You will have the option to add these records to an existing list that you have already created or you can create a new list.
Note the Land Reference ID section which will be used to give each record on the new list a unique ID number that can be used in your marketing to easily identify parcels that don't have a full address.
10) If you choose to create a new list, the following setup options will be available to you.
- Every list must be named before it can be saved by clicking the blue Create List button.

Once the list has been created, FreedomSoft will start to move the selected leads over to that list. This process typically just takes a second or two but can take longer based on how many records you are moving over.
11) Once complete, you can find the list in your account by clicking on My Lists in the Leads tab.
Please Note:
- We update the records for Lead Finder every 24 hours which means the data in FreedomSoft is as up to date as you can find anywhere.
- Lead Finder WILL NOT create duplicates in your account as every address has a unique identified number that is used when creating new lists.
