As you may be aware, listings in ICREX are now prompting you to complete the Tax ID Number/APN field for each property listing. As a reminder, your listings are still being displayed on the website at this time. However, it is important to complete the Tax ID Number/APN field as this will soon become a required field.

Beginning March 1, 2012, listings that do not have an entry in the Tax ID Number/APN Field will be marked incomplete and not posted on the ICREX website. In order to keep all of your listings displaying properly, enter the state assigned Tax ID number for all of your listings in ICREX.

For more information on the data expansion, view the FAQ sheet.

Below are few of the Frequently Asked Questions about the Tax ID numbers.

How do I input the Tax ID Number/APN?
Once logged into your ICREX account, go to “My Listings.” Click on “Edit” for each individual listing. On the form, you will have a space to enter the Tax ID Number/APN. Once entered, click “Save.” This will need to be entered for every listing.

There are different parcel numbers. Which one do I use?
Please use the state assigned Tax ID number. This is an 18 digit number.

What if I have a listing that has multiple Tax ID Numbers?
If there is a prominent Tax ID number, enter that number or a number of choice, in the designated field. You may then list the additional number(s) in the Property Overview field.

As of Monday, Dec. 12, you will be prompted to complete the Tax ID Number/APN field for each listing in ICREX. ICBR is working to add new data sets to ICREX, and this field is important to be completed so ICREX continues to serve as a source of accurate, reliable information.

Starting Dec. 12, each listing will be flagged with a warning until the Tax ID Number/APN field is complete. The listing will still appear in all search results, web links, etc. for the time being.

Please note in starting in 2012, if the Tax ID Number/APN is not completed, the listing will not be published in search results or live on the website. Once updated with the Tax ID Number/APN, the listing will appear again.

How do I input the Tax ID/Parcel Number?
Go to “My Listings.” Click on “Edit” for each individual listing. On the form, you will have a space to enter the state assigned Tax ID Number/APN. Once entered, click “Save.” This will need to be entered for every listing.

If you have multiple Tax ID numbers, enter the dominant number in the Tax ID Number/APN field. Additional numbers may be added in the Property Overview field.
