# Searching and Downloading Properties
### **Why?**
* Once a property has been created in RiskBase, its data is securely stored in the cloud.
* To perform an assessment on a property, however, it must be downloaded onto a device.
**Note:** an internet connection is required to download a property. Once downloaded, users can sync to work offline.
### **Pre-requisites**
* Download the RiskBase app from the Apple Store or Google Play Store, or search app.riskbase.uk in a web browser.
* Ensure an account has been set up and sign-in.
### **Searching and downloading a property**
1. Open the app.
2. Make sure the **Downloaded Properties** tab is selected.
3. Click the **downwards arrow** icon (top-right corner of the screen).
4. Use the search bar to search for a property.
5. Use the **All Orgs** button to select a specific organisation to search under (if a user is part of multiple organisations). Use the **Relevant** button to order properties A-Z or Z-A.
4. Select the property and click the **tick** icon (top-right corner of the tab) to save.
5. The property has now been downloaded onto the device, and will appear on the app's landing screen. Assessments can now be performed on this property.
