On Tuesday evening July 6, 2010 we will release several new enhancements to Realist as requested by MLS organizations nationwide.
Below is a quick snapshot of a few of the important changes included in this release
NEW FEATURES
Foreclosure History Added to Property Detail Report for Non-Foreclosed Properties
The new "Prior" Foreclosure History section now provides details on a property that is currently not in foreclosure; but has a history of foreclosure with the existing borrower. This new feature allows agents to identify properties/owners that may be at risk and proactively market their listing services to this new class of homeowners that may be seeking to sell their existing property.
Foreclosure Stage Definitions Available on Property Detail Report
Foreclosure stage definitions will now be provided to a user when they mouse-over the foreclosure flag on the Property Detail Report. View definitions for pre-foreclosure, auction and bank-owned properties.
Pre-Foreclosure: The lender has filed a public default notice initiating the process to foreclose on the property.
Auction: Properties in which a date for an auction has been set as a result of a mortgage default and foreclosure-related proceedings.
Bank-Owned: Lender has completed the foreclosure and is the current owner of the property.
Drop-down Now Available for Street Suffixes
A drop-down box has been added for Street Suffixes within Address Search and Foreclosure Activity Search. Users can manually input a street suffix or choose from options such as: Ct, Cir, Pl, Ave, Way, Rd, etc.
The addition of the drop-down box will minimize entry errors and the variation of suffixes that can be entered.
