Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and an information processing program.

Background Art

[0002] In recent years, real estate information regarding properties such as land or buildings has been publicly available on websites that can be browsed via the Internet. Users who browse real estate information can browse properties that meet their desired conditions by entering their desired conditions on the website that publishes the property and performing a search.

[0003] For example, Patent Document 1 describes a real estate sales system having real estate agent information processing terminals respectively installed in a plurality of real estate agents, customer information processing terminals each owned by a general customer, and a management institution information processing apparatus installed in a real estate information management agent for storing and managing a real estate information database. In this system, the real estate information input by the real estate agent information processing terminal is transmitted to the management institution information processing apparatus and registered in the real estate information database of the management institution information processing apparatus. A general customer who wishes to buy or sell real estate uses the customer information processing terminal to access the real estate information published by the management institution information processing apparatus and search for a desired real estate property.

[0004] On the other hand, among the websites that publish real estate information, there are consumer-oriented websites that publish real estate information for general consumers and business-oriented websites (inter-business websites) that publish real estate information for real estate agents (including intermediaries, etc.). In the inter-business websites, information on unpublished properties that are not publicly available on the consumer-oriented websites is updated daily. The real estate information published on the inter-business websites varies from website to website, and there is unique information that is only published on a specific website. Therefore, users (real estate agents) who use the inter-business websites access various websites daily to search for real estate information in order to obtain a wide range of fresh real estate information that has been publicly available for a short time in the course of their business.

Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention

[0011] Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and an information processing program in an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0012] First, the outline of the information processing apparatus will be described with reference to FIG. 1. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the outline of the information processing apparatus in the embodiment.

[0013] In FIG. 1, an information processing apparatus 1 is a device that provides company information (which may be referred to as "company information") of the original company of a real estate property to a user (hereinafter referred to as "user") who collects property information of real estate properties (which may be referred to as "real estate information"). The original company of a real estate property (also referred to as "original provider") is, in the case of a rental property, a company directly commissioned by the owner to search for a tenant, and in the case of a property for sale, a company directly commissioned by the seller to search for a buyer. In this embodiment, the original company of a real estate property may be abbreviated as "source". Since the source is the company responsible for the actual contract in a lease or sales contract, it is necessary to know company information such as the contact information when making a contract. The information processing apparatus 1 can reduce the man-hours required to investigate company information by providing the user with the company information of the original company of the real estate property.

[0014] The user terminal 2 is a terminal used by the user, such as a PC or a smartphone. The user terminal 2 may be used by one or more users. Among the users, there are an administrator who has the authority to set the functions described below provided by the information processing apparatus 1, and an information collector who collects real estate information using the functions set by the administrator. In the embodiments described below, the case where the user is both an administrator and an information collector will be mainly described, but the user may be either an administrator or an information collector.

[0015] The website 3 is an inter-company website that provides real estate information to real estate agents. The website 3 stores detailed items of real estate properties including the company information of the original affiliated company. The detailed items include, in addition to the company information, for example, the number of years since construction, the floor area, the room number, the rent, the management fee, the location, the railway line, the nearest station, the nearest bus stop, the walking time, the number of floors, the floor plan, or the property type (apartment, single-family house, new or used distinction, or lease or sale contract distinction), etc. Also, the website 3 stores the recruitment status of each real estate property. The recruitment status is information such as whether a tenant or a purchaser is being recruited, the recruitment period, on hold for cancellation, or the end of recruitment. Therefore, in order to conclude a lease or sale contract for a real estate property, it is necessary to check the recruitment status on the website 3 and contact the property owner described in the company information. Although Figure 1 illustrates the case where there is one website 3, there may be multiple websites 3. Also, the website 3 may be a database that can store and provide property information.

[0016] The portal site 4 provides real estate information for general consumers. The property information provided by the portal site 4 is collected, for example, by a brokerage firm that mediates real estate properties obtaining information from the website 3. Among the above-mentioned websites 3, there are some that provide only property information of a specific property type (for example, rental properties or properties for sale). Also, among the websites 3, there are some that provide property information specialized for a specific region (for example, local areas or prefectures). The portal site 4 can improve the listability and searchability of property information by collecting information from multiple websites 3 and providing a wider range of property information.

[0017] Figure 1 shows a user accessing the portal site 4 using the user terminal 2 and viewing a web page of property information. The web page of property information can be viewed by a web browser installed on the user terminal 2. A program for displaying a search button for searching company information of the property information being displayed is added to the web browser of the user terminal 2.

[0018] Here, with reference to Figure 3, the web page screen of the portal site 4 displayed on the web browser of the user terminal 2 will be described. Figure 3 is a diagram showing an example of a portal site screen in the embodiment.

[0019] In Figure 3, the portal site screen 1000 has a property information display section 1001 for displaying property information of real estate properties and a property owner search button 1002. The property information display section 1001 is a web page for providing the property information provided by the portal site 4, and the property information of individual real estate properties is displayed. The property owner search button 1002 is a button displayed by a program added to the web browser of the user terminal 2. By the user operating the property owner search button 1002, the property owner of the real estate property displayed in the property information display section 1001 is searched.

[0020] Since the property information provided by the portal site 4 can be obtained from multiple websites 3, the property owners may be different. Also, the property information provided by the portal site 4 may not include the company information of the property owner. By displaying the property owner search button 1002 on the web page of the property information provided by the website 3, it becomes possible to directly search for the company information from the property information provided by the portal site 4, and the man-hour required to search multiple websites 3 to find out the company information of the property owner can be reduced. Note that the display of the property owner search button 1002 is performed by specifying the web page of the portal site 4 by a program added to the web browser. Therefore, the property owner search button 1002 can be displayed only on the pre-specified web page.

[0021] For example, when looking for a real estate property, a general consumer may request a property search from a broker and search the portal site 4 to collect property information. Such a general consumer may inquire the broker in the negotiation about the property information collected from the portal site 4. In such a case, the broker as the user will view the web page of the property information of the portal site 4 using the user terminal 2. The user can immediately obtain the company information of the property owner by operating the property owner search button 1002 displayed on the web page of the property information of the portal site 4. At the broker's store, it becomes possible to view the property information of the portal site 4 together with the general consumer and check the company information on the spot.

[0022] Returning to FIG. 1, when the property source search button 1002 described in FIG. 3 is operated, the information processing apparatus 1 acquires from the user terminal 2 the information of the web page of the property information of the portal site 4 and a search instruction to search for the property source of the real estate property displayed on the web page. The web page of the portal site 4 includes detailed items of the real estate property. As described above, the detailed items of the real estate property are, for example, the number of years since construction, the floor area, the room number, the rent, the management fee, the location, the railway line, the nearest station, the nearest bus stop, the walking time, the number of floors, the floor plan, or the property type, etc. In the present embodiment, the detailed items of the real estate property are used to identify the real estate property.

[0023] The information processing apparatus 1 stores the property information of the real estate property in association with the company information of the original company of the real estate property and a plurality of detailed items included in the property information. The information processing apparatus 1 searches the stored property information of the real estate property based on the acquired detailed items of the real estate property and determines the degree of coincidence of the detailed items. The details of the determination of the degree of coincidence will be described later. The information processing apparatus 1 identifies the stored real estate property based on the determined degree of coincidence and provides the company information of the original company of the identified real estate property to the user terminal 2.

[0024] In addition, the information processing apparatus 1 searches for property information on the website 3 based on the determined degree of coincidence or based on a search instruction from the user. As described above, since the property information provided by the portal site 4 is acquired from the property information provided by the website 3, the property information of the portal site 4 may be older than the property information of the website 3. Also, the property information of the portal site 4 may include property information for customer acquisition purposes that does not actually exist. By searching for property information on the website 3, the information processing apparatus 1 can acquire the latest information of the real estate property.

[0025] Search instructions from users include, for example, search instructions for the current recruitment status of real estate properties. The recruitment status of real estate properties may be that even if a real estate property posted on the portal site 4 has already ended recruitment when other general consumers have signed a contract first. The information processing apparatus 1 can provide the latest recruitment status to the user terminal 2 by searching for the recruitment status of the real estate property instructed for the website 3, and it becomes possible to prevent the loss of the user's contract opportunity.

[0026] Next, the configuration of the information processing apparatus 1 will be described with reference to FIG. 2. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the information processing apparatus in the embodiment.

[0027] In FIG. 2, the information processing apparatus 1 is communicably connected to the user terminal 2, the website 3 (3a to 3c), and the portal site 4 via the network 9. The information processing apparatus 1 has functional units such as a property information storage unit 11, a search instruction acquisition unit 12, a detailed item acquisition unit 13, a matching degree determination unit 14, a display screen providing unit 15, a search unit 16, and a search result acquisition unit 17. Each of the above functional units of the information processing apparatus 1 in the present embodiment will be described as a functional module realized by the information processing program (software) in the present embodiment.

[0028] The property information storage unit 11 stores the property information of real estate properties in association with the company information of the original company of the real estate properties and a plurality of detailed items included in the property information. The information stored in the property information storage unit 11 is automatically acquired, for example, by periodically searching the website 3. Also, the information stored in the property information storage unit 11 may be manually input by an operator.

[0029] The search instruction acquisition unit 12 acquires a search instruction from a user who searches for property information, for searching for company information of the original company of the real estate property. The search instruction acquisition unit 12 can acquire the search instruction by the user operating the property source search button 1002 described in FIG. 3. Also, the search instruction acquisition unit 12 can acquire the search instruction by the user operating the search 1 button, the search 2 button, or the recruitment status button, which will be described later.

[0030] The detailed item acquisition unit 13 acquires the detailed items of the property information posted on the portal site 4 that provides real estate information. The detailed items are, for example, the number of years since construction, the exclusive area, the room number, the rent, the management fee, the location, the railway line, the nearest station, the nearest bus stop, the walking time, the number of floors, the floor plan, or the property type, etc. The detailed item acquisition unit 13 can acquire the detailed items by analyzing the description of the web page on which the property information is posted, for example, the tags included in HTML (HyperText Markup Language). The HTML tags may differ for each portal site 4. Therefore, the detailed item acquisition unit 13 needs to refer to the pre-associated relationship between the tags and the detailed items. For this reason, the detailed item acquisition unit 13 can acquire the detailed items only for the portal site 4 in which the tags and the detailed items are pre-associated. The portal site 4 on which the above-described property source search button 1002 is displayed coincides with the portal site 4 in which the tags and the detailed items are pre-associated.

[0031] In this embodiment, the timing at which the detailed item acquisition unit 13 acquires detailed items will be described as being after the search instruction acquisition unit 12 acquires a search instruction, that is, after the user operates the source search button 1002. However, the timing at which the detailed item acquisition unit 13 acquires detailed items is not limited to this. For example, in the web browser of the user terminal 2, the detailed item acquisition unit 13 may acquire detailed items after the web page on which the source search button 1002 is displayed is displayed and before the source search button 1002 is operated. Also, the detailed item acquisition unit 13 may acquire detailed items when property information is saved in the property information storage unit 11. By acquiring detailed items before the search instruction acquisition unit 12 acquires a search instruction, the detailed item acquisition unit 13 can shorten the processing time related to acquiring detailed items.

[0032] When a search instruction is acquired by the search instruction acquisition unit 12, the matching degree determination unit 14 compares the detailed items acquired by the detailed item acquisition unit 13 with the detailed items saved in the property information storage unit 11 to determine the matching degree of the detailed items. The matching degree is a frequency indicating how much the detailed items acquired by the detailed item acquisition unit match the detailed items saved in the property information storage unit 11. The matching degree is represented, for example, by the number of stars from 0 to 5, the percentage (%) from 0 to 100, the difference in displayed characters, or the difference in displayed colors.

[0033] If a preset priority item among the detailed items does not match, the matching degree determination unit 14 may determine the matching degree to be low. The priority item is a detailed item that is preferentially judged over other detailed items when determining the matching degree.

[0034] The consistency determination unit 14 may be configured to be able to set items such as the number of years since construction, the exclusive area, the room number, the rent, or the management fee (which may be abbreviated as "items such as the number of years since construction"). The detailed items of the real estate property may be described differently for each portal site 4. For example, the description of the detailed items such as the name of the real estate property or the walking time from the station may be different for each of the plurality of portal sites 4. On the other hand, the detailed items such as the number of years since construction are often common among the plurality of portal sites 4. Therefore, if the detailed items such as the number of years since construction do not match, the possibility that the real estate properties are different increases. The consistency determination unit 14 can improve the accuracy of the consistency determination by increasing the weighting of the detailed items such as the number of years since construction in the determination of the consistency.

[0035] Here, the setting of the priority items will be described with reference to FIG. 4. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of a priority item setting screen in the embodiment.

[0036] In FIG. 4, the priority item setting screen 1100 is a screen for setting whether to make the detailed items of the real estate property the priority items. The priority item setting screen 1100 is provided from the information processing apparatus 1 to the user terminal 2. The user sets the detailed items to be the priority items from the priority item setting screen 1100 displayed on the user terminal 2. FIG. 4 shows that the number of years since construction, the exclusive area, the rent, and the management fee are set as the priority items. The user can save the set priority items by operating the registration button 1101. The consistency determination unit 14 determines the consistency based on the priority items saved by the user.

[0037] Returning to FIG. 2, the display screen providing unit 15 provides a display screen for the user to display the degree of match, the property information of the real estate property stored in the property information storage unit 11, and the company information based on the degree of match determined by the degree of match determination unit 14. The display screen providing unit 15 lowers the display priority of the real estate property determined to have a low degree of match in the degree of match determination unit 14. Lowering the display priority of the real estate property means, for example, lowering the display order when a plurality of real estate properties are displayed. The display screen providing unit 15 may not display the real estate property with the lowered priority.

[0038] Here, using FIG. 5, an example of the property source display screen which is an example of the display screen provided by the display screen providing unit 15 will be described. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the property source display screen in the embodiment.

[0039] In FIG. 5, the property source display screen 1200 has a degree of match display unit 1201, a matching item display unit 1202, a property source display unit 1203, and a search button display unit 1204. The property source display screen 1200 is provided from the display screen providing unit 15 to the user terminal 2 and browsed by the user.

[0040] The degree of match display unit 1201 displays the degree of match determined by the property name and the degree of match determination unit 14. In this embodiment, the case where only the property name is displayed as the property information is exemplified, but other detailed items may be displayed as the property information. In FIG. 5, the case where the degree of match is represented by the number of stars from 0 to 5 is exemplified. The number of stars 0 represents the lowest degree of match, and the number of stars 5 represents the highest degree of match. As described above, the degree of match may be represented by a percentage (%), a different character to be displayed, or a different color of the display color, etc. Also, in FIG. 5, the case where the degrees of match of two real estate properties are displayed is exemplified. The property source display screen 1200 may, for example, display all real estate properties whose degree of match is equal to or higher than a predetermined value (for example, four or more stars). Thereby, for example, it becomes possible to display the property information of other rooms in the same building. In addition, when the user operates the link of the property name, a detailed page of the property information of the link destination may be displayed.

[0041] The matching item display unit 1202 displays the detailed items that match between the detailed items acquired by the detailed item acquisition unit 13 and the detailed items stored in the property information storage unit 11. FIG. 5 shows that the detailed items of the construction years, exclusive area, rent, management fee, location, railway line, walking time, and floor plan match. Here, it is assumed that the priority items are the construction years, exclusive area, rent, and management fee set in FIG. 4. The property names displayed on the matching degree display unit 1201 are properties for which these priority items match. When the floor number is further included in the priority items, the real estate property of Room 101 may not be displayed.

[0042] The property owner display unit 1203 displays the company information of the original lessor company. The company information includes, for example, the company name, department name, telephone number, or email address, etc. The user can immediately contact the original lessor company based on the displayed company information. For this reason, it becomes possible to immediately respond to the real estate properties posted on the portal site 4 for which inquiries have been received from general consumers.

[0043] The search button display unit 1204 has a search 1 button, a search 2 button, and a recruitment status button. The search 1 button and the search 2 button are buttons for re-searching the website 3 which is an inter-trader site. For example, when the property information on the website 3 is updated after the property information is stored in the property information storage unit 11, the property information displayed on the property owner display screen 1200 may be outdated. Also, when the property information displayed on the property owner display screen 1200 is not what is desired, for example, when it is necessary to change the priority items and perform a re-search, the functions of the search 1 button and the search 2 button may be set on a setting screen not shown in the figure.

[0044] The recruitment status button is a button for searching the recruitment status of real estate properties displayed on the property source display screen 1200. As described above, the recruitment status is information such as whether a tenant or purchaser is being recruited, the recruitment period, on hold for cancellation, or recruitment ended. By the user operating the recruitment status button, the information processing device 1 can issue a search instruction to the website 3 to search for the latest recruitment status.

[0045] Returning to FIG. 2, when the matching degree determination unit 14 determines that the matching degree is lower than a predetermined value, the search unit 16 may search the website 3 based on the detailed items acquired by the detailed item acquisition unit 13. When the matching degree is lower than the predetermined value, it is highly likely that the real estate property related to the detailed items acquired by the detailed item acquisition unit 13 does not exist in the property information storage unit 11. By the search unit 16 searching the website 3, it becomes possible to acquire the property information of the real estate property related to the detailed items acquired by the detailed item acquisition unit 13.

[0046] Also, the search unit 16 may search the website 3 when the user operates the search 1 button, search 2 button, or recruitment status button described in FIG. 5. By searching the website 3, it becomes possible to acquire the latest information on real estate properties.

[0047] The search result acquisition unit 17 acquires the search results searched by the search unit 16. The search results acquired by the search result acquisition unit 17 are re - judged for the matching degree by the matching degree determination unit 14. The re - judged matching degree is provided to the user terminal 2 as a display screen by the display screen providing unit 15. The search result acquisition unit 17 may provide the latest recruitment status of the real estate property acquired from the website 3 via the display screen providing unit 15.

[0048] Note that each of the above functional units included in the information processing apparatus 1 is an example of the functional units of the information processing apparatus 1, and does not limit the functions of the information processing apparatus 1. For example, the information processing apparatus 1 does not necessarily have all of the above functional units, and may have some of the functional units. Further, the information processing apparatus 1 may have other functions than those described above. For example, the information processing apparatus 1 may have an input function for inputting information or an output function for notifying the operating state of the apparatus by an LED lamp or the like.

[0049] Further, as described above, each of the above functional units included in the information processing apparatus 1 has been described as being realized by software. However, at least one or more of the above functional units may be realized by hardware.

[0050] Further, any one of the above functional units may be implemented by dividing one functional unit into a plurality of functional units. Also, any two or more of the above functional units may be integrated into one functional unit. Further, the above description represents the functions of the information processing apparatus 1 in terms of functional blocks, and does not indicate, for example, that each functional unit is configured by a separate program file or the like.

[0051] Further, the information processing apparatus 1 may be a device realized by one housing or a system realized by a plurality of devices connected via a network or the like. For example, the information processing apparatus 1 may be realized by a virtual device such as a cloud service provided by a cloud computing system for some or all of its functions. That is, the information processing apparatus 1 may implement at least one or more of the above functional units in another device. Further, the information processing apparatus 1 may be a general-purpose computer such as a desktop PC or a dedicated device with limited functions.

[0052] Next, the hardware configuration of the information processing apparatus 1 will be described with reference to FIG. 6. FIG. 6 is a block diagram showing an example of the hardware configuration of the information processing apparatus in the embodiment.

[0053] The information processing apparatus 1 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 101, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 102, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 103, an I / O device 104, and a communication I / F (Interface) 105.

[0054] The CPU 101 controls the information processing apparatus 1 by executing an information processing program stored in the RAM 102 or the ROM 103. The information processing program is obtained from, for example, a recording medium storing the program, or a program distribution server via a network, installed in the ROM 103, read out by the CPU 101, and executed.

[0055] The I / O device 104 has an operation input function and a display function (operation display function). The I / O device 104 is, for example, a touch panel. The touch panel enables operation input by a fingertip or a touch pen or the like to the user of the information processing apparatus 1. In the present embodiment, the case where the I / O device 104 uses a touch panel having an operation display function will be described, but the I / O device 104 may separately include a display device having a display function and an operation input device having an operation input function. In that case, the display screen of the touch panel can be the display screen of the display device, and the operation of the touch panel can be implemented as the operation of the operation input device. Note that the I / O device 104 may be realized in various forms such as a head-mounted type, glasses type, or wristwatch type display.

[0056] The communication I / F 105 is an I / F for communication. The communication I / F 105 executes, for example, short-range wireless communication such as wireless LAN, wired LAN, or infrared. Although the figure only shows the communication I / F 105 as the I / F for communication, the information processing apparatus 1 may have respective I / Fs for communication in a plurality of communication methods.

[0057] Next, the operation of priority item setting will be described with reference to FIG. 7. FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of priority item setting in the embodiment. Note that, although the execution subject of the operations in the flowchart shown below will be described as the information processing apparatus 1, each operation can be executed in each functional unit of the information processing apparatus 1 described above.

[0058] In FIG. 7, the information processing apparatus 1 provides the priority item setting screen 1100 to the user terminal 2 (step S11). After executing the process of step S11, the information processing apparatus 1 determines whether the setting is completed (step S12). If it is determined that the setting is not completed (step S12: NO), the information processing apparatus 1 repeats the process of step S12 and waits for the setting to be completed.

[0059] On the other hand, if it is determined that the setting is completed (step S12: YES), the information processing apparatus 1 saves the set content (step S13) and ends the operation shown in the flowchart.

[0060] Next, the operation of the information processing apparatus 1 will be described with reference to FIG. 8. FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing an example of the operation of the information processing apparatus in the embodiment.

[0061] In FIG. 8, the information processing apparatus 1 determines whether there is a search instruction from the user terminal 2 (step S21). If it is determined that there is no search instruction (step S21: NO), the information processing apparatus 1 repeats the process of step S21 and waits for a search instruction.

[0062] On the other hand, when it is determined that there is a search instruction (step S21: YES), the information processing apparatus 1 acquires the detailed items of the property information posted on the portal site 4 that provides real estate information (step S22). After executing the process of step S22, the information processing apparatus 1 compares the detailed items acquired in step S22 with the stored detailed items to determine the degree of match of the detailed items (step S23). After executing the process of step S23, the information processing apparatus 1 determines whether or not the degree of match determined in step S23 is n or more (step S24). n is, for example, the number of stars described in FIG. 5. When it is determined that the degree of match is not n or more (step S24: NO), the information processing apparatus searches an external website 3 (step S25).

[0063] After executing the process of step S25, or when it is determined in the process of step S24 that the degree of match is n or more (step S24: YES), the information processing apparatus provides a display screen to the user terminal 2 (step S26).

[0064] After executing the process of step S26, the information processing apparatus 1 determines whether or not to search for the recruitment status (step S27). Whether or not to search for the recruitment status can be determined based on whether or not there is a search instruction for the recruitment status from the user terminal 2. When it is determined to search for the recruitment status (step S27: YES), the information processing apparatus 1 acquires the recruitment status from the website 3 (step S28). After executing the process of step S28, the information processing apparatus 1 provides a display screen including the recruitment status acquired in the process of step S28 to the user terminal 2 (step S26).

[0065] On the other hand, when it is determined not to search for the recruitment status (step S27: NO), the information processing apparatus 1 determines whether to end the display on the display screen (step S29). Whether to end the display on the display screen can be determined, for example, by whether the user has performed an operation to close the display screen. When it is determined not to end the display on the display screen (step S29: NO), the information processing apparatus 1 repeats the processes from step S27 to step S29. When it is determined to end the display on the display screen (step S29: YES), the information processing apparatus 1 ends the operations shown in the flowchart.

[0066] Note that the operations shown in the above flowchart are merely examples of the operations of the information processing apparatus 1 and do not limit the order of processing. For example, specific processing may be executed in an order or timing different from the processing order in the flowchart.

[0067] As described above, the embodiments of the present invention have been described with reference to the drawings. However, the specific configuration is not limited to this embodiment, and various modifications within the scope not departing from the gist of the present invention are also included.
