Abstract
An Internet-based system for managing communication between a real estate agent and one or more clients is described. The system allows the real estate agent to provide MLS search results to the clients and the clients can indicate a level of interest for each property. The system facilitates easy two-way communication between the agent and the clients and keeps track of such communication so that the agent and the clients have a ready record of the properties that have been considered and the clients'"'"' level of interest in each property. For the agent, the system automates searching and information by client so that the agent can easily keep track of the type of property desired by each client and the properties considered by each client. For each of the clients, the system creates a personalized website that the client can visit at any time to view the new properties located by the agent and to review the properties already considered. Using conventional webpage user interface elements, the clients can indicate a level of interest for each property, thereby saving time for the agent and the client.
