The Search Results List contains all public records matching your search criteria. Stratus offers the option of using this list in its entirety or narrowing the list. You can view detailed reports for one or more public records in the full or abbreviated Search Results List, in any one of a variety of formats.
The actual report for a chosen format varies both by county and the public record itself. Up to three deeds on record since 1987 display.
At the public record report you can print the public record or generate a Street Map.
If one or more listings (current or historical) are associated with a property, this information displays at the full public record under Listing History. If no corresponding listings are identified, the Listing History section is absent from the report. You can view the full listing reports.
A valuable tool for farming and preparing "Just Listed" and "Just Sold" mailings, you can search for properties surrounding the one in the viewed public record (see Locating Surrounding Properties from Public Records). Depending on the number of properties identified, you can either download them in bulk (see Bulk Farming Download) for use in another program or print mailing labels directly at the results.
At most public records you can access a tax map from the full public record.
At any public record report, click Return to Results to return to the Search Results List.
