Abstract
The present invention is an improved system and method for analyzing multiple real estate properties. The system includes a pool of properties that are searched based on user-defined search criteria. The system identifies comparison properties from the search pool. The comparison properties include attributes that match or are a near match to the search criteria. The system compares each of the comparison properties to at least one average value and demonstrably depicts the comparison to the user.
Claims34
A method of analyzing real estate property, the method comprising:
- determining a plurality of search features associated with each property found in a search pool of properties, each of said search features having an attribute value associated therewith;
- identifying comparison properties from said search pool using at least one of said search features;
- determining an average attribute value associated with a search feature for said comparison properties;
- comparing an attribute value of said search feature for each comparison property to said average attribute value;
- and
- depicting demonstrably said comparison of said attribute value for each comparison property to said average attribute value with a symbol that indicates whether said attribute value for each comparison property is one of above, below and substantially equal to said average attribute value.
A system to analyze real estate property, the system comprising:
- a search pool coupled to a network, the search pool storing real estate property information;
- a service delivery device coupled to the network, the service delivery device including a processor and memory storing instructions that, in response to receiving a request for access to a service, cause the processor to:
- determine a plurality of search features associated with each property found in said search pool of properties, each of said search features having an attribute value associated therewith;
- identify comparison properties from said search pool using at least one of said search features;
- determine an average attribute value associated with a search feature for said comparison properties;
- compare an attribute value of said search feature for each comparison property to said average attribute value;
- and
- depict demonstrably said comparison of said attribute value for each comparison property to said average attribute value with a symbol that indicates whether said attribute value for each comparison property is one of above, below and substantially equal to said average attribute value.
An article comprising a machine-readable medium storing machine-readable instructions that, when applied to the machine, cause the machine to:
- determine a plurality of search features associated with each property found in said search pool of properties, each of said search features having an attribute value associated therewith;
- identify comparison properties from said search pool using at least one of said search features;
- determine an average attribute value associated with a search feature for said comparison properties;
- compare an attribute value of said search feature for each comparison property to said average attribute value;
- and
- depict demonstrably said comparison of said attribute value for each comparison property to said average attribute value with a symbol that indicates whether said attribute value for each comparison property is one of above, below and substantially equal to said average attribute value.
