For business ownership searches

  1. Last Name

  2. First Name/Nickname

  3. Company Name

    • If information is entered in this field, and a Last Name and/or First Name/Nickname is also entered the application uses the company name in only the Business Ownership search.

    • If information is entered in this field, and no Last Name or First Name/Nickname is entered, the Company Name is also used to search against the Last name field in the Real Estate portion of the search.

  4. State

  5. City

  6. ZIP

  7. Address

  8. Phone number (used in business ownership searches only)

    • Three characters or less: the number is assumed to be an area code, and the system attempts to match against area code. For one or two characters, a * wildcard is assumed.

    • Four to seven characters: the number is assumed to be the main phone number (not the area code). For between four and six characters, a * wildcard is assumed.

    • Greater than seven characters: first three numbers are assumed to be the area code, with the remaining numbers used to match against the main phone number. For example if you enter nine numbers, the first three are broken out as the area code and the next six are used to create the rest of the phone number with a wildcard in the seventh slot (123456789 = (123) 456-789*).

    • If numbers are entered within parenthesis ( ): the system assumes these numbers are the area code. So with a (123)456 entry, even though it contains six numbers, the system identifies 123 as the area code and 456 as the first three digits of the main phone number.

    • Area code and next three numbers or area code and last four numbers: Wild card characters can be used in place of the unknown numbers. For example, if you know the area code and the next three numbers, but you do not know the remaining four numbers, you can enter “843765****” in your search. If you know the area code and the last four numbers, but you do not know the three middle numbers, you can enter “843***1000” in your search.
