Former Realtor.com CEO to Head RETA Real Estate Town Advocates Network

Sunday, December 29th, 2013


Rumson, NJ (PRWEB) November 19, 2013

Former Realtor.com CEO to head RETA: Real Estate Town Advocates Network; Network to propel ‘location, location, location’ to new heights; off and online!

Larry Vecchio, Founder and CEO of HomesInYourTown.com and HomesIn.com, a town and city-specific network of URLs and websites provided to the real estate industry, announced that Allan Dalton, former CEO of Realtor.com and President of HomesInYourTown, will also serve as President of the Real Estate Town Advocates Network.

The Real Estate Town Advocates Network, to be launched in the 1st quarter of 2014, will soon begin selecting interested real estate agents, “Ones who have long been primed to assume the official role of Real Estate Town Advocate for the town, towns, cities, villages or communities they already capably and enthusiastically serve and support, declared Vecchio.

The Real Estate Town Advocates Network and business model emerge out of the reality that the adage of ‘location, location, location’ significantly drives consumer real estate decision making and unquestionably speaks to the undeniable connection between real estate values and the promoted and perceived value of the neighborhoods, towns or cities where such real estate resides.

Home sellers are well aware that their homes location is a vital component that each buyer or investor factors into their highly thoughtful and strategic decision regarding the real or perceived value of the related community or town. Accepting this important relationship between the perceived value of a town and property values, calls into question, Whos job is it to formally and, with targeted and customizable off and online resources, market each specific town?

Dalton believes that the answer is, …that community-centric Real Estate professionals should assume such duties. Naturally, it is those Real Estate professionals who market themselves and their properties and are noted for serving their communities. Until now however, these professionals are mostly recognized for marketing specific properties or promoting themselves, which is separate from the promotional needs of the town. In effect, Real Estate professionals are advocating for the towns where they work…but not to the degree that commands community-wide appreciation and respect. Town residents are neither aware of this fact, nor view these professionals as their specific Real Estate Town Advocate.”

If ever marketing should be elevated by integrating or combining personal, property, and community-based marketing, it is now…due to the range, reach and influence of the web, observed Vecchio.

Vecchio further explained, As a way of seizing this robust opportunity, RETAs through HomesInYourTown.com and HomesIn.com will be providing select and civic-minded, community-centric agents, teams and brokerages with both the opportunity and years-in-the-making resources necessary to become the unequivocal, trusted real estate voice throughout towns of all sizes throughout North America.

Given the order of magnitude and consumer relevance of this concept and program, I have asked Allan Dalton, former CEO of Realtor.com and Co-Founder of RETA, to lead our network, Vecchio stated.

Dalton, named by NAR Realtor

Peak Corporate Network Principal Eli Tene Disputes Prevailing Sentiment that the Foreclosure Crisis is Abating

Friday, March 8th, 2013


Woodland Hills, CA (PRWEB) March 04, 2013

In a recent statement, Eli Tene, Principal and Managing Director of the Peak entities, urged caution in assuming that the foreclosure crisis is behind us. While an improving economy combined with government intervention and lender workouts has significantly reduced the number of homeowners in mortgage default since the height of the recession in 2008, states Tene, the problem hasnt gone away. Thousands of Americans are still receiving Notices of Default each month in spite of the current optimism of a complete housing recovery touted in the press.

Tene has identified two possible causes contributing to the discrepancy between prevailing sentiment and the actual facts regarding foreclosures. First, industry data consistently aggregates information on foreclosures, providing a broad averaging of foreclosure activity, whereas granular data on a state-by state basis doesnt necessarily mirror the national trend.

Tene cites newly enacted foreclosure laws at the state level over the past two years as a contributing factor in the drop of default filings. California, Florida and Nevada arguably had the highest foreclosures rates in the nation, he says. Yet recent statistics show a relationship between various state legislative actions and a slowdown in foreclosures, including Nevada requiring lenders to prove their rights to foreclose in 2011 and Californias Homeowners Bill of Rights enacted in 2013. So while these laws inevitably contributed to a dramatic decrease in completed foreclosures which is reflected in lower default-filing statistics, Tene points out, in reality, we believe that there are still eight to ten million units that comprise a substantial shadow inventory of housing supply still subject to foreclosure.” He also notes that California and Nevada follow non-judicial procedures for filings. Judicial states, according to Tene, are still coping with pending cases simply caught in the court system.

Second, industry data on distressed assets reports historically, typically analyzing activity 60 90 days prior to the actual reporting date. While Tene concedes that real-time foreclosure data would be difficult to obtain and verify, he has observed that default servicing specialists are as active as ever these days processing foreclosures. This trend is confirmed by two other Peak executives. Kelli Espinoza is Executive Vice President overseeing operations at Peak Foreclosure Services, Inc., which serves as the primary Peak entity specializing in a wide range of default servicing solutions catering to banks, credit unions, and small investors nationwide. She characterizes current activity as brisk. Servicing both the judicial and non-judicial foreclosure proceedings throughout the nation, Espinoza is seeing a steady flow of files generated by private equity and investment firms in the distressed asset sector. While prevailing housing analysis reporting on past distressed performance have indicated a decline in defaults, there are still a significant number of foreclosures making their way through the pipeline to my desk in ‘real time’ each day. She continues, While weve been able to facilitate many workouts on the borrowers behalf to avoid a default situation, Im pretty confident in saying that well be processing foreclosures for clients for some time to come.

Raffi Tal, Executive Vice President of I Short Sale, Inc., one of the Peak entities working exclusively with distressed homeowners, affirms that theres still a clear and present danger of Americans losing their homes. We are still heavily involved in negotiating workout solutions on behalf of homeowners that have no other alternative.

Its important to note, Tene concludes, that regardless of industry trends showing a decline in foreclosure starts, each month thousands of Americans are still facing a scenario that could mean the loss of their home. Now, more than ever, the housing industry cannot and should not become complacent in aggressively pursuing ways to help homeowners retain their most valuable asset.

As a leading authority in the real estate industry, The Peak Corporate Network entities provide a full array of comprehensive real estate services nationwide, including brokerage services, mortgage financing, loan servicing, escrow services, short sales, foreclosure processing and 1031 exchange.
