It would be great if we could filter our “Favorite Homes” list or see a map view for them. It would be easier to explore options with those capabilities. ---

Do you Know you Can already see it on the Map when you search ? ---

Yes, but I’m specifically talking about a map that would show only your favorite homes on it. Not just the map view when you search or the map on the individual listing page. That way, you can see where your favorites are in relation to each other. ---

ok understood. The problem of this is that a second map = more map loadings, so more expenses for the site (you need to think big volumes here), = result , increase of membership for everyone, even for those not using favourites feature like me etc ---

It would also be good if you could search for availabilities in your favourites. Sometimes you have planned a week off and you’re looking for somewhere to go. Rather than search a location, it would be good to search your favourites and identify if one of them is available for your selected dates. ---

Well, if the site is more functional, wouldn’t that be a draw for users, thus increasing the subscription base and funds? But I also mentioned the possibility of lists. Lists or folders would be another good way to organize favorites. That’s a much lower lift as far as the coding is concerned and would greatly improve user experience. ---

You Can Do that the other way around. Search an area with your dates, and those which are in your favorites will be on the Map with a Heart icon ( + other listings too) ---

Yes for folders and list, the staff is aware of that. For the Map of favorites, not really, this is not a feature which would attract New comers anyway ---

Thank you for your reply Etienne! But my challenge is that if I have my favourites in different countries, then it is not possible to see all my favourites when I search, the area is too big. What I’m trying to achieve is that my favourite places drive where you are going. I have places in different parts of the world. So if I have my summer holiday next year, before deciding where I will go, I search to see which of my favourite places have availability. ---

YES!! Same with the people who added our home in their favorites please! ---

It looks like there’s a workaround for this now via [this ticket](https://forum.homeexchange.com/t/new-search-your-favorite-homes-only-on-the-web-only-for-the-moment/8381) You can search “anywhere in the world” with open dates, and then filter by “Favorite Homes” to see a map of all your favorites
