RealtyTrac and Assist-2-Sell Enter Partnership

IRVINE, CA – RealtyTrac™ (http://www.realtytrac.com/), the leading online marketplace for foreclosure properties, and Assist-2-Sell (http://www.assist2sell.com/), North America’s leading discount real estate company, today announced a new agreement and strategic partnership that will allow Assist-2-Sell visitors to search nationwide for foreclosure properties, supplied in real time from RealtyTrac’s comprehensive database of defaults, auctions and bank-owned homes.

“Assist-2-Sell is an exciting new addition to our ever-growing network of valued partners,” said Rick Sharga,(top right photo) senior vice president at RealtyTrac.


“We are committed to providing Assist-2-Sell and its visitors the most comprehensive set of foreclosure properties, and pertinent foreclosure-related editorial content, written to help consumers understand the foreclosure process and the steps involved with buying a home in foreclosure.”

With real estate in a downturn in most markets nationwide, the foreclosure marketplace is one of the few growing areas in real estate.


More than 750,000 homes received a foreclosure notice in the third quarter of 2008, up 71 percent from the third quarter of 2007, according to the RealtyTrac U.S. Foreclosure Market Report.

“We are delighted to announce this new partnership with RealtyTrac, one of the strongest and most trusted real estate brands on the Web,” said Mary LaMeres-Pomin, co-founder with Lyle Martin and co-chief executive officer of Assist-2-Sell. (bottom left photo)
