RealtyTrac, an online marketplace for foreclosure properties, has announced a redesign of Yahoo! Real Estate Foreclosure Center that integrates three key functions: foreclosure searches, trend analysis, and education about buying properties in foreclosure.In the current slowing real estate environment, potential buyers can realize substantial discounts on homes that are in foreclosure while helping out homeowners in default and cutting costs for foreclosing lenders, RealtyTrac said. The redesign "incorporates some of the most advanced tools and analytical features from RealtyTrac, and is a major leap forward in providing millions of consumers who access Yahoo! Real Estate with data on foreclosures," said James J. Saccacio, chief executive officer of RealtyTrac. The company can be found online at http://www.realtytrac.com, and the Yahoo foreclosure center can be found at http://realestate.yahoo.com/foreclosures.
