SearchAI's advanced search filters let you go well beyond a basic zone code search. Here's how the filter categories work and when to use them.

Click the search bar at the top of the platform and select Advanced Search. This opens the full filter panel where you can combine multiple criteria into a single search.

Filter by zone code, zone type (Residential, Commercial, Industrial, etc.), or specific permitted uses. Zone type filters are particularly useful when entering a new market where you don't know the local zone codes — searching for "Residential" will return all residentially zoned parcels regardless of what the local municipality calls them.

Set minimum and maximum acreage to target parcels in your sweet spot. Combined with a zone type filter, this is usually the fastest way to build a starting list in any market.

Filter by owner type (individual, LLC, corporate, trust, government) or search by owner name directly. Ownership type filters are useful for targeting motivated or sophisticated sellers — for example, filtering for long-held parcels owned by individuals in an LLC.

Filter by how long a parcel has been in the same ownership. Parcels held for 10+ years by the same owner are often prime acquisition targets — the owner's cost basis is low, and the motivation to sell is often higher.

Filter by wetland presence, FEMA flood zone, and slope to exclude parcels with significant development constraints before you ever open the property panel. This saves time on due diligence by surfacing only the cleanest sites upfront.

In Texas, you can filter by water and sewer availability — critical in markets where utility access isn't guaranteed and running new lines can kill a deal's economics.

Instead of searching a city or county, you can draw a custom polygon or set a radius around a specific point to search within a precise geographic area. Open Advanced Search and select the polygon or radius draw tool. This is useful for searching around a specific intersection, an existing community, or a target corridor where you want to concentrate acquisitions.

Once you've configured a search you'll want to run again, save it using the Save Search option. Saved searches appear in your search history and can be reopened with one click, dropping you directly into the results list for that criteria set.
