Keyboard Shortcuts & Power User Tips

Keyboard Shortcuts & Power User Tips

These tips help you work faster in PropIntel once you are familiar with the basics.

Search Tips

• Natural language search — Type plain English queries in the search bar: "tax delinquent properties over 5000 sqft owned by out of state owners." The AI translates your query into filters and shows "AI understood:" chips for each filter it applied.
• Voice search — Tap the microphone icon in the TopBar and speak your query. Works well on mobile during D4D sessions.
• Parcel ID search — Type a parcel ID directly into the search bar for instant lookup.
• Address search — Type a street address for address-based lookup.

Map Tips

• Right-click on the map to copy coordinates at that point.
• Scroll to zoom — Mouse wheel zooms the map. On mobile, use pinch-to-zoom.
• Double-click to zoom in on a specific point.
• Layer controls — Toggle heatmaps, zoning, and flood zone overlays from the layer panel (top-right of map).

DataGrid Tips

• Column sorting — Click any column header to sort ascending. Click again for descending.
• Column resizing — Drag the edge of any column header to resize.
• Resize the split — Drag the handle between the map and DataGrid to allocate more space to either view.
• Bulk selection — Use the checkbox column to select multiple rows, then use the bulk action bar for Export, Add to List, or Score.

Filtering Tips

• Start broad, narrow down — Apply one or two filters first, check the count, then add more filters to focus your search.
• Combine distress signals — Check multiple distress filters (e.g., Tax Delinquent + Code Violations) to find properties with stacked motivation signals.
• Absentee + Long ownership — This combination surfaces landlords who may be tired of managing remote properties — prime wholesale targets.

Scoring Tips

• Filter first — Always narrow your set before scoring. Scoring 50 targeted properties is more useful than scoring 500 random ones.
• Read the explanations — The AI's written explanation often contains insights the score alone does not capture.
• Stack profiles — Run two different profiles on the same filtered set to find properties that work for multiple strategies.
