Map Search and Favorites - Find and Save Your Dream Property!
Discover indo.rent's two most important features: the map search and favorites function. The map search is a premium tool, while favorites is a feature available to all users!
Map Search - Search by Location!
What Is This and Who Is It For?
The map search is a premium feature that allows you to search for properties on a map using Google Maps. No need to type in addresses anymore - simply click on the map and find all properties in the area! Who Can Access It?
- ⭐ Premium seekers - Full access
- ❌ Free seekers - Not available (but basic search functions are!)
How Does It Work?
Location Selection - Click on the Map!
- Google Maps integration - Professional map in the background
- Coordinate-based search - Search exactly where you want
- Distance setting - Set how far you want to see properties (between 1-100 km)
Example usage:
You mark your workplace on the map, set a 5 km distance, and instantly see all available properties nearby!
Intelligent Search Algorithm - Smart System Behind the Scenes
The system doesn't search randomly, but smartly
- City-based filtering - First finds cities within the set distance
- Property filtering - Then only searches for properties in these cities based on your criteria
- Featured properties first - The best offers are always up front
💡 Why is this smart? Faster search, fewer unnecessary results, only relevant properties!
Filtering Options - Fine-Tuning
- Property type: All / Only for rent / Only leasehold
- Search radius: From 1 km to 100 km
- Automatic sorting: Featured properties always come first
