Title: Systems and methods for the coordination of value-optimizating actions in property management and valuation platforms

Description:
RELATED APPLICATION 
     Under provisions of 35 U.S.C. § 119(e), the Applicant claim the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 63/133,860, filed Jan. 5, 2021, which is incorporated herein by reference. 
    
    
     FIELD OF DISCLOSURE 
     The present disclosure generally relates to systems and methods for the coordination of value-optimizing actions in property management and valuation platforms. 
     BACKGROUND 
     Information about a property, house and/or accommodation such as home value, insurance costs, renovations, and maintenance can be difficult to aggregate, calculate and manage. 
     In conventional systems, no single entity has a complete collection of real property information. In these conventional systems, it is not practical to create and maintain a single database of all real property information due to businesses, such as mortgage lenders, competing for real property, and retaining such information to support their business practices. Therefore, the desired information collected is often not shared between competitors. Using the conventional systems, accessing, analyzing, and acting on the aforementioned information, especially anticipatorily, can be nearly impossible. 
     Thus, a conventional strategy may be to store the property information manually, or in online accounts/databases. This often causes problems because the conventional strategy does not contain the sufficient information required to perform proper analysis in order to recommend predictive actions, take preventative measures, and/or make property improvements. 
     Accordingly, an automated solution for valuing, storing, managing, updating, making recommendations and taking actions based on property information is needed. 
     BRIEF OVERVIEW 
     This brief overview is provided to introduce a selection of concepts in a simplified form that are further described below in the Detailed Description. This brief overview is not intended to identify key features or essential features of the claimed subject matter. Nor is this brief overview intended to be used to limit the claimed subject matter&#39;s scope. 
     One embodiment of the present disclosure provides a system for providing value-optimizing actions in a property-related context. The system includes a processor of a property manager node connected over a network to at least one cloud server configured to host a machine learning (ML) module; a memory on which are stored machine-readable instructions that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to: receive property-related data comprising a current valuation of the property and at least one market comparable of the property, provide the property-related data to a machine learning (ML) module for a property model generation, receive at least one predictive output of the property model, and generate at least one property-related recommendation. 
     Another embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for providing value-optimizing actions in a property-related context. The method includes: receiving, by a property manager node, property-related data comprising a current valuation of the property and at least one market comparable of the property, providing, by the property manager node, the property-related data to a machine learning (ML) module for a property model generation, receiving, by the property manager node, at least one predictive output of the property model, and generating, by the property manager node, a property-related recommendation. 
     Another embodiment of the present disclosure provides a computer-readable medium including instructions for receiving property-related data comprising a current valuation of the property and at least one market comparable of the property, providing the property-related data to a machine learning (ML) module for a property model generation, receiving at least one predictive output of the property model, and generating a property-related recommendation.

As should be understood, any embodiment may incorporate only one or a plurality of the above-disclosed aspects of the disclosure and may further incorporate only one or a plurality of the above-disclosed features. Furthermore, any embodiment discussed and identified as being “preferred” is considered to be part of a best mode contemplated for carrying out the embodiments of the present disclosure. Other embodiments also may be discussed for additional illustrative purposes in providing a full and enabling disclosure. Moreover, many embodiments, such as adaptations, variations, modifications, and equivalent arrangements, will be implicitly disclosed by the embodiments described herein and fall within the scope of the present disclosure. 
     Accordingly, while embodiments are described herein in detail in relation to one or more embodiments, it is to be understood that this disclosure is illustrative and exemplary of the present disclosure and are made merely for the purposes of providing a full and enabling disclosure. The detailed disclosure herein of one or more embodiments is not intended, nor is to be construed, to limit the scope of patent protection afforded in any claim of a patent issuing here from, which scope is to be defined by the claims and the equivalents thereof. It is not intended that the scope of patent protection be defined by reading into any claim a limitation found herein that does not explicitly appear in the claim itself. 
     Thus, for example, any sequence(s) and/or temporal order of steps of various processes or methods that are described herein are illustrative and not restrictive. Accordingly, it should be understood that, although steps of various processes or methods may be shown and described as being in a sequence or temporal order, the steps of any such processes or methods are not limited to being carried out in any particular sequence or order, absent an indication otherwise. Indeed, the steps in such processes or methods generally may be carried out in various different sequences and orders while still falling within the scope of the present invention. Accordingly, it is intended that the scope of patent protection is to be defined by the issued claim(s) rather than the description set forth herein. 
     Additionally, it is important to note that each term used herein refers to that which an ordinary artisan would understand such term to mean based on the contextual use of such term herein. To the extent that the meaning of a term used herein—as understood by the ordinary artisan based on the contextual use of such term—differs in any way from any particular dictionary definition of such term, it is intended that the meaning of the term as understood by the ordinary artisan should prevail. 
     Regarding applicability of 35 U.S.C. § 112, ¶6, no claim element is intended to be read in accordance with this statutory provision unless the explicit phrase “means for” or “step for” is actually used in such claim element, whereupon this statutory provision is intended to apply in the interpretation of such claim element. 
     Furthermore, it is important to note that, as used herein, “a” and “an” each generally denotes “at least one,” but does not exclude a plurality unless the contextual use dictates otherwise. When used herein to join a list of items, “or” denotes “at least one of the items,” but does not exclude a plurality of items of the list. Finally, when used herein to join a list of items, “and” denotes “all of the items of the list.” 
     The following detailed description refers to the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers are used in the drawings and the following description to refer to the same or similar elements. While many embodiments of the disclosure may be described, modifications, adaptations, and other implementations are possible. For example, substitutions, additions, or modifications may be made to the elements illustrated in the drawings, and the methods described herein may be modified by substituting, reordering, or adding stages to the disclosed methods. Accordingly, the following detailed description does not limit the disclosure. Instead, the proper scope of the disclosure is defined by the appended claims. The present disclosure contains headers. It should be understood that these headers are used as references and are not to be construed as limiting upon the subjected matter disclosed under the header. 
     The present disclosure includes many aspects and features. Moreover, while many aspects and features relate to, and are described in, the context of property management, embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to use only in this context. 
     The present disclosure may provide a system and method (collectively referred to herein as the “platform”) for identifying events for real properties, determining the likelihood of fraud, and/or alerting the consumer with suggested actions. 
     A challenge of monitoring real property is that no two properties are alike. The entities that manage each facet such as, for example, mortgage and/or insurance are different for each property. The present disclosure may allow a model to be applied to individual properties. 
     Accordingly, consistent with various embodiments provided herein, a single model can also be applied to a group of properties. This is useful when, by way of non-limiting example, a home builder needs to monitor a group of homes. The present disclosure may also be used, by way of non-limiting example, to monitor the status of all of the units in a condominium situation. 
     In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the platform and/or model may employ a single mechanism to:
         a. Control how events may be collected, and/or   b. Evaluate if events may be a threat.       

     The technical advantages of the various embodiments disclosed herein, may include, but not be limited to, for example:
         a. Ease in modification of the platform and/or model over time,   b. Selectiveness on a per-property basis, and/or   c. Ability to assign values dynamically.       

     Businesses may require accommodation of data processing changes. With the present disclosure, new business relationships or special data processing requirements can be defined without affecting other business arrangements. 
     Models may be assigned to a real property manually or dynamically. In the dynamic situation, a situation may be detected and the remedy for the situation may be, for example, but not be limited to, the assignment of a different model. An example of this may be detecting a potential problem and having the present disclosure increase the intensity of detection of adjusting the thresholds of events for real properties used for evaluation. 
     Fur more, embodiments of the present disclosure concern home valuation and optimization of the value. For example, embodiments may be configured to orchestrate value optimizing actions by way of a platform that performs, by way of non-limiting example, one or more of the following: a) studies correlations, using machine learning, of properties, b) recommends improvements/risk mitigation/changes to properties, c) orchestrates third party actions between home owner and service providers in furtherance of those recommendations, d) tracks the completion of the actions through blockchain based data-disclosure and certification of completions tied to the property, and e) updates a value index based on certified completion of work. 
     In a first aspect, embodiments may provide a platform configured to:
         a. calculate a Value of a Property based on life-cycle model;   b. adjusts valuation based on market comps for home improvements document by the homeowner;   c. leverage a knowledge base to accurately defend the life-cycle;   d. process with machine learning capabilities; and   e. returns ROI projections and analytics on how improvements affect market prices.

     In a third aspect, embodiments may provide a platform configured to:
         a. capture the UI/UX aspect of a property; and   b. enable the homeowner to digitally showcase the improvements of the property o Appraisers and Prospective Buyers       

     In a fourth aspect, embodiments may provide a platform configured to: 
     Combine:
         a. Third Party Data,   b. Public Data, and   c. Private Data; and       

     Generate a Disclosure Document comprising:
         a. ID,   b. Activation*,   c. Termination*,   d. Owner Info, and   e. Recipient Info.       

     The elements marked as (*) may be operable through End User Control of access to Public/Private Key Pair. In this way, the platform may be configured to achieve consent based on the utilization of the Public/Private Key Pair, of any latest disclosure documentation version published to, for example, a blockchain. 
     In a fifth aspect, embodiments may provide a platform configured to provide Smart Contract Based Document/Report Tracking. This aspect may couples Aspect 4 with Aspect 2 in order to:
         a. track vendor performance,   b. enforce smart contracts,   c. serve as custodian of reports generated by Vendors, and   d. publish for purposes of Value Index Calculation in Aspect 1 above.
