Abstract

A system for determining the maximum building size that may be constructed on a real property parcel includes at least a first database including applicable governmental regulations that affect building size within a specific locality, a second database including information concerning real property parcel size and location with the locality, a means for comparing information from the second database with information from the first database and a means for generating a report for a specific parcel of real property, the report including at least a calculation of the maximum size of a building that may be constructed on a parcel of real property, the calculation being based on information contained in the first and second databases.

Claims

1. A system for determining the maximum building size that may be constructed on a real property parcel, comprising:

a first database including applicable governmental regulations that affect building size within a specific locality;

a second database including information concerning real property parcel size and location with said locality;

means for comparing information from said second database with information from said first database;

means for generating a report for a specific parcel of real property, said report including at least a calculation of the maximum size of a building that may be constructed on a parcel of real property, said calculation being based on information contained in said first and second databases.

2. The method of claim 1 wherein said step of preparing a report is completed only in response to a user request.

3. The method of claim 1 further comprising the step of utilizing said report to create plans for building a structure on said parcel, said plans defining a structure having a size that is no larger than, or substantially equal to, a maximum size of a building that may be built on said property in accordance with building codes and governmental regulations.

4. A method for determining the maximum building size that may be constructed on a real property parcel, comprising:

compiling a first database including applicable limitations that affect building size within a specific locality, said compiling step being accomplished by at least searching governmental codes and regulations;

compiling a second database including information concerning real property parcel size and location with said locality, said compiling step;

receiving a query from a user, said query containing an identification of at least one specific parcel of real property, wherein information related to said specific parcel of real property is located within said second database;

preparing a report for said specific parcel of real property, said report including at least a calculation of the maximum size of a building that may be constructed on said parcel of real property, said preparing step being performed by comparing information contained in said first database with information in said second databases.

5. The method of claim 4 further comprising the step of constructing a building in accordance with said plans.

6. The method of claim 4 further comprising the step of constructing an addition to an existing building on said parcel in accordance with said plans.

7. A method for constructing a building on a real property parcel, comprising:

compiling a first database including applicable limitations that affect building size within a specific locality, said compiling step being accomplished by at least searching governmental codes and regulations;

compiling a second database including information concerning real property parcel size and location with said locality, said compiling step;

receiving a query from a user, said query containing an identification of at least one specific parcel of real property, wherein information related to said specific parcel of real property is located within said second database;

preparing a report for said specific parcel of real property, said report including at least a calculation of the maximum size of a building that may be constructed on said parcel of real property, said preparing step being performed by comparing information contained in said first database with information in said second databases;

utilizing said report to create plans for building a structure on said parcel, said plans defining a structure having a size that is no larger than, or substantially equal to, a maximum size of a building that may be built on said property in accordance with building codes and governmental regulations;

constructing said building in accordance with said plans.
