Property proximity method and apparatus

摘要

Disclosed is a method for managing properties. The method comprises a processing system receives property criteria indicative of one or more properties of interest from a mobile communications device via a communications network (202). The processing system identifies one or more matching properties from a number of listed properties using the property criteria. The processing system communicates with the mobile communications device (203) via a communications network to determine if the mobile communications device (203) is located within a set distance of a matching property. The processing system then identifies a lister associated with the matching property, and provides a proximity notification to the lister.
