Systems and methods for analyzing property related information
A property analyzer device may include (1) a receiver configured to receive property identification information from a mobile device, the received property identification information including a picture of the property and/or a property location; (2) a retriever configured to retrieve property-related information from multiple property sources (such as public record databases, websites, or an internal company database) based upon the received property identification information; (3) a processor configured to consolidate the retrieved property-related information into a consolidated property-related image of the property; and (4) a transmitter configured to transmit the consolidated property-related image to the mobile device for review by a user. The mobile device may display the consolidated images that may include several images of the property taken over time (such as showing repairs or improvements made), home insurance quotes, home loan quotes, and other types of property-related or community information that home buyers or owners would find useful.

11. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further programmed to:
receive a mortgage rate quote for the property based upon information about the property; and
adjust the augmented reality overlay to display the mortgage rate quote on the display screen of the mobile device.
12. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further programmed to:
retrieve historical severe weather data based upon the property location; and
adjust the augmented reality overlay to display one or more statistics of the retrieved historical severe weather data on the display screen of the mobile device.
13. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further programmed to:
retrieve risk information based upon the property location, wherein the risk information comprises information about at least one of flooding, wildfire, and storm surge, with respect to the property; and
adjust the augmented reality overlay to display the risk information for the property on the display screen of the mobile device.
14. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further programmed to:
retrieve at least one of criminal record data for the property, property tax data for the property, market value cost data for the property, building permit data for the property, or county assessor data based upon the property location; and
adjust the augmented reality overlay to display at least one of the criminal record data, the property tax data, the market value cost data, the building permit data, or the county assessor data on the display screen of the mobile device.
15. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further programmed to:
retrieve school district information based upon the property location; and
adjust the augmented reality overlay to display the school district information on the display screen of the mobile device.
16. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further programmed to:
retrieve historical utility rate data based upon the property location; and
adjust the augmented reality overlay to display the historical utility rate data on the display screen of the mobile device.
17. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further programmed to:
retrieve previous insurance claims data based upon the property location; and
adjust the augmented reality overlay to display the previous insurance claims data on the display screen of the mobile device.
18. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further programmed to visually highlight changes that have been made to the property over time.
19. A computer-based property analyzer method for displaying a combination of property-related information on a display screen of a mobile device, the method comprising:
