RealtyTrac Promotes Michael Keane to Newly-Created Position of chief Product Officer

Position allows for greater focus on product development and strategic planning

IRVINE, Ca – RealtyTrac (http://www.realtytrac.com/), the nation’s leading online foreclosure marketplace, announces Michael Keane, (top right photo) its Chief Technology Officer for the past three years, has been promoted to fill the newly created position of Chief Product Officer, effective immediately.

Keane’s new title will be Founder/Chief Product Officer, and the new position will allow him to focus his attention entirely on feasibility analysis, development and implementation of new products for RealtyTrac. A search for a new Chief Technology Officer is underway.

“Michael has really been the brains behind our technology, and I was very fortunate to have his vision and expertise as one of the company’s founders when I took on the CEO position,” said James J. Saccacio, (top left photo) RealtyTrac CEO.

“Now, as we continue to accelerate the growth of the company and build on its success, I can think of no one more suited or better qualified to create and integrate new product concepts and ideas into the RealtyTrac website and improve our customers’ experience for the long term.”

With the company since its inception in 1996, Keane has played a key role in RealtyTrac’s growth from a small, regional startup with a handful of employees, to its current status as the nation‘s leading publisher of foreclosure data.

Keane and his team have delivered a number of first-in-the-industry innovations, including a patent-pending integration of aerial photography into the RealtyTrac website, and a mapping solution that allows users to drag and drop their way across the United States, viewing all foreclosure-related activity in an intuitive graphical user interface.
