Correct Procedures for Entering an Address

When entering an address please use normal spacing - no punctuation is necessary. Directions are optional, as they do not always apply. Street names should be entered completely. The following street tags should be used. Failure to enter street tags correctly/completely may also result in listings not mapping properly on the flexMLS system or other web sites.

 

Avenue     AVE  Court       CT   Parkway   PKWY  Street        ST
Boulevard  BLVDDrive          DRPlace        PL   Terrace     TERR
Circle        CIR  Lane          LN Road        RDTrail         TL

Highways with an alpha character (Cty Hwy B) should be entered as County Road B. Highways with a numeric character (Hwy 12) should be entered as State Highway 12 or US Highway 12. Enter the street name as it appears in the Tax Information records. If the property address contains both a N/S and E/W in the address enter as follows: N12W34467 MAIN ST
