1. A method, using a computer system having an electronic processor and a non-transitory electronic memory, of providing an optimal real estate agent or agency for a user to use to sell a property based upon user defined property characteristics, comprising:
(a) inputting, through a user interface, a user defined target address;
(b) electronically, using the electronic processor and the non-transitory electronic memory, accessing, based upon the inputted user defined target address, a plurality of proprietary databases to obtain property characteristics corresponding to the user defined target address, property characteristics including number of bedrooms, number of bathrooms, and car spaces;
(c) communicating, using the electronic processor and the non-transitory electronic memory, the accessed property characteristics to the user;
(d) electronically enabling, through the user interface, the user to modify or accept the communicated property characteristics to create a user defined set of property characteristic search parameters;
(e) electronically, using the electronic processor and the non-transitory electronic memory, retrieving, based on the user defined set of property characteristic search parameters within a predefined radius from the user defined target address and within a predefined time period, a plurality of user defined real estate agent/agency based parameters from the plurality of proprietary databases, each real estate agent or real estate agency having a plurality of distinct real estate agent/agency based parameters associated therewith;
(f) electronically, using the electronic processor and the non-transitory electronic memory, calculating a current market average for each retrieved user defined real estate agent/agency based parameter;
(g) electronically, using the electronic processor and the non-transitory electronic memory, communicating, to the user, the current market average for each retrieved user defined real estate agent/agency based parameter;
(h) electronically, using the electronic processor and the non-transitory electronic memory, assigning a value to each real estate agent or real estate agency for each retrieved user defined real estate agent/agency based parameter associated therewith, each value corresponding to a comparison of a market average of a real estate agent/agency based parameter and a corresponding retrieved user defined real estate agent/agency based parameter;
(i) electronically, using the electronic processor and the non-transitory electronic memory, sorting a number of real estate agent/agency based parameters associated with each real estate agent or real estate agency into a ranking order;
(j) electronically, using the electronic processor and the non-transitory electronic memory, ranking each agent or agency based on a cumulation of the values for each real estate agent or real estate agency;
(k) electronically, using the electronic processor and the non-transitory electronic memory, providing the user access to individual rankings for each real estate agent/agency based parameter;
(l) electronically, using the electronic processor and the non-transitory electronic memory, providing the user access to the comparison of the market average of a real estate agent/agency based parameter and the corresponding retrieved user defined real estate agent/agency based parameter;
(m) electronically, using the electronic processor and the non-transitory electronic memory, providing the user access to individual rankings on the number of properties sold by a real estate agent or real estate agency; and
(n) electronically, using the electronic processor and the non-transitory electronic memory, sending to the user an optimal real estate agent or real estate agency based on the ranking of each real estate agent or real estate agency.
