Basic Searches: Conduct searches by category or by state:
If you search just by category or by state, you often get too many to look
through. You may want retail businesses for sale, one of our most popular
categories, in only certain states. The Solution: combine your basic search
with the category and the state to narrow down the results: Category: retail
businesses and State: New York.

Advanced Searches: Use keyword and city searches:
You can enter city or town names in the keyword or city search along with the
state or category you choose using the search boxes.For example, in searching Miami, Florida:
- Choose Florida as your state and:
- Use the search boxes:
- keyword box: enter Miami into the keyword search box, or
- city box: enter Miami into the city search box
Note that a number of listings are listed by the county they are
in, so if a city search doesn’t work for you, try the county (e.g., Fulton for
Atlanta and Queens, Kings, Nassau, and Suffolk for counties on Long Island).
