Saved places and search alerts — JourneyStead Help

Good places go quickly. Two things help you keep up: saving a place you like, and saving a search so JourneyStead tells you when something new matches.

Saving a place

Press the heart on a place, in the results or on its page. Open Saved in the menu to see everything you have kept.

If you are not signed in, pressing the heart asks you to sign in or create an account, and then saves the place for you. You do not have to find it again.

Saving a search

Set up the search

Choose the place you want to be near, and the filters you care about, on Find a place.

Save it

At the bottom of the results, find Save this search. Give it a name, such as “Rooms near campus under R3000”.

Choose whether to be told

Tick Email me when something new matches if you want an alert.

JourneyStead then emails you once when a new listing matches the search. It does not send a message for every place, and it does not repeat itself.

Your saved searches are on the Saved page, with a note of which ones have alerts on.

Note

You need an account to save a search. A search with no filters at all cannot be saved, because it would match everything.

Stopping an alert

Open Saved and choose Turn alerts off on that search, or remove the search. You can also switch all emails of this kind off under Settings → Notifications. See Notifications and emails.

Searching for a place Search near your campus or workplace, narrow by rent and more, and switch to the map.Notifications and emails What you are told about, where, and how to choose what is also emailed.
