First Claim
1. A method, operable on a digital computer, of assembling tenant history data from a plurality of rental management organizations, comprising the steps of:
- a. periodically receiving, via a global computer network, a set of tenant history data for each of the rental management organizations, wherein at least one first set of tenant history data is in a first format and at least one second set of tenant history data is in a second format, different from the first format;
b. extracting the first set with a first extraction program that selects relevant data from the first set and extracting the second set with a second extraction program that selects relevant data from the second set;
c. bundling the selected data from the first set with information regarding the first format, thereby creating bundled first set data, and bundling the selected data from the second set with information regarding the second format, thereby creating bundled second set data;
d. sending the bundled first set data and the bundled second set data to a secure server;
e. mapping the selected data from the bundled first set data and the bundled second set data into a central database;
f. responding to a request from a requesting rental management organization for a selected subset of data regarding a selected tenant by extracting tenant-specific data regarding the tenant from the central database and bundling the tenant-specific data along with format data corresponding to a format desired by the requesting rental-organization into a bundled data package; and

Abstract
In a method of processing tenant information, a first set of tenant history data, in a first format, is pushed from a first apartment rental management organization database to a central server. A second set of tenant history data, in a second format different from the first format, is pushed from a second apartment rental management organization database to the central server. Selected elements from the first set of tenant history data and the second set of tenant history data are assembled into a central database in a standard format. The central database is stored on the central server. Tenant history data is provided from the central database to a selected apartment rental management organization.
