Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for receiving a query; selecting one or more entities responsive to the query; providing, for display on a map portion of an interface, map-based representations of the one or more entities; providing, for display on a list portion of the interface, list-based representations of one or more of the entities; generating an additional query based on selection of a particular map-based representation of a particular entity; determining that, when the particular map-based representation was selected, a particular list-based representation was visible on the list portion; adjusting a ranking score for the particular entity; ranking the particular entity among one or more other entities identified as responsive to the additional query; and providing, for display on the list portion, list-based representations of at least one of the one or more other entities, including the particular list-based representation which remains visible on the list portion.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for receiving a query including search parameters; selecting one or more of the search parameters; for each of the selected parameters: generating a natural language representation of the selected parameter, and determining a rank of the selected parameter among the one or more selected parameters; generating a uniform resource identifier comprising the natural language representations of the selected parameters arranged in an order based on the ranks; obtaining one or more search results identified as responsive to the query; and providing the uniform resource identifier and the one or more search results for output.

Abstract: Methods, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for improving database functionality. In one aspect, a method includes: in response to receiving a query for data associated with one or more properties, accessing listing information for multiple, different communities within which multiple, different types of properties are physically located; selecting, from among the different communities, a particular set of communities; determining that a value of one or more properties within the selected particular set of communities is missing or stale; obtaining an initial estimate of the value of one or more properties within the particular set of communities; defining a cost function that depends on a set of parameters, optimizing the cost function to generate a set of optimal parameters, and obtaining an updated estimate of the value of each property within the particular set of communities based on the generated set of optimal parameters.

Abstract: A system and method for managing real estate data using a mobile device, such as a tablet computer. The data is displayed in a manner that facilitates quick analysis suing a mobile device. User interfaces, processing, and other features provide a mobile user with information required to make intelligent decisions on real estate transactions. A tour can be constructed based on a subset of data returned as a result of a database query.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer readable storage medium, for identifying entities based on value. In one aspect, the method may include actions for receiving a query that specifies a location. Additional actions may include identifying candidate entities that are identified as responsive to the query and that are associated with the location, selecting a subset of the candidate entities, and determining a representative value of an attribute that is associated with each candidate entity of the subset of the candidate entities. Other actions may include in response to determining that the current value of the attribute that is associated with the particular candidate entity of the subset deviates more than a threshold amount from the representative value, adjusting a ranking score for the particular candidate entity, and ranking the particular candidate based at least on the ranking score for the particular candidate entity.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage medium, for performing a blend polygon search. In one aspect, the method may include receiving one or more search parameters. Additional actions may include obtaining two or more sets of data that each represent a respective geographic area, the two or more sets of data including at least one set of data that is provided by a third party geographic data set provider, defining a particular geographic area to search based at least on the two or more sets of data that each represent a respective geographic area, identifying one or more entities that (i) are indicated as responsive to one or more of the search parameters, and (ii) are associated with the particular geographic area, and providing a representation of the entities for output.

Abstract: Computer-implemented systems, methods, and computer-readable media for tracking interest in real estate property include receiving, by at least one of one or more computing devices, first information about one or more individuals that may be interested in a real estate property and at least one referral source, and detecting, by at least one of the one or more computing devices, second information indicating that the one or more individuals has visited at least one of the one or more real estate properties. The systems, methods and media of the present disclosure may include correlating, by at least one of the one or more computing devices, the first information with the second information and providing acknowledgement based at least in part on the correlation.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for receiving a query; selecting one or more entities responsive to the query; providing, for display on a map portion of an interface, map-based representations of the one or more entities; providing, for display on a list portion of the interface, list-based representations of one or more of the entities; generating an additional query based on selection of a particular map-based representation of a particular entity; determining that, when the particular map-based representation was selected, a particular list-based representation was visible on the list portion; adjusting a ranking score for the particular entity; ranking the particular entity among one or more other entities identified as responsive to the additional query; and providing, for display on the list portion, list-based representations of at least one of the one or more other entities, including the particular list-based representation which remains visible on the list portion.
