Page where users can search for listings using several filters

Search Page Overview

This is public page for browsing home listings. By default, this page shows all active Listings on the platform and can show a subset of listings if the user has specified any search filters. When a user clicks on listing to visit its page, a start and end parameter will be sent which contain the Available From and Available To date values (if available) inputted by the user.
