  3. Be sure you are using the property address and not the owner address.
  4. On the entry screen, you must select a city or township and then click on the "List Street Names" button.
  5. The page will reload with a list of streets in the chosen city or township. Select a street name and, key in the house number (optional). Finally, click on the "Search by Address" button.
  6. The House Number field will accept the ? wild card. Example: 11?? will find all properties in the eleven hundred block. The * wild card is not valid, leave the house number blank to view all properties on a street.
