Abstract
A web-based user interface and method for providing home and community information, move-in and move-out information, as well as vendor information in a simple and easy-to-access format for real estate professionals, future homeowners, and current homeowners. The user interface accepts only a zip code or town and city location information on a first web page, and then displays home and community information, move-in and move-out information, and/or vendor information in response to the location information submitted. A very simple user interface thereby provides a large collection of locally targeted information without the tedium and frustrations of previous methods. Such targeted information can facilitate a home sale, or a ease a move-in or move-out. The vendor information includes ratings and reviews of local vendors submitted by actual customers that may help a homeowner in making a more informed and therefore better decision about which vendor to select for products and/or services.
