realtytrac.com Home Resource Centre

US foreclosure marketplace realtytrac.com has revealed the launch of a new Home Resource Centre.

The Home Resource Centre has been developed specifically for homeowners and others who want to learn about any type of home improvement — from small do-it-yourself projects to major renovations that require assistance from professional contractors.

In a press release about the new website section, RealtyTrac write:

“Thanks to content from partners such as Lowe’s, the second largest home improvement retailer in the world, RealtyTrac’s new Home Resource Center will contain hundreds of how-to articles and featured videos on all aspects of residential home repair, home improvement, remodeling and renovation projects. Users can find tips, advice, step-by-step information and how-to articles to help them maintain and improve the value of their homes. Do-it-yourselfers will find money-saving information on house painting, carpentry, energy-saving home insulation, electrical, plumbing, air conditioning and heating, flooring, masonry, gardening, wood decks, interior decorating, how to install a flat screen television and more. Users can also sign up for free “Tip of the Week” e-mails.”

It is a natural progression for the company, who specialise in foreclosure property listings. Jim Saccacio, CEO of RealtyTrac, explained:

“Because foreclosures often require some level of rehab, adding educational content and home improvement information was a natural fit for our website. We are always looking for new and creative ways to improve the RealtyTrac customer experience and the Home Resource Center is a resource that will benefit our customers and hopefully save them time and money on home improvement and remodeling projects.”

realtytrac.com lists more than 1.5 million default, auction and bank-owned listings from over 2,200 U.S. counties, along with detailed property, loan and home sales data. The website receives more than 3 million unique monthly visitors.
