Sacramento Foreclosure Search Improvements

Posted by John Lockwood on October 31st, 2007

I’ve made some improvements and bug fixes to the Sacramento Foreclosure Search Page, and moved the search tool to the main page of the foreclosure section.

I want to thank Daniel Kenna for his excellent suggestions, and I’ve implemented some of those.  Along the way I found a lot of bugs, too, which I’ve tried to fix.  If you see any others, please let me know!

In making the change to the main foreclosure page I did something that my colleagues would probably find counter-intuitive:  I took a lead generating form down and replaced it with a free search tool.  

However, if my experience on the rest of the site is any guide, free search is the way to go.  In the first place, over and over again buyers have told me that they called me because they liked the registration free search tools.  In the second place, I’ve noticed that when I do put up a lead generation form for email updates of foreclosure listings or the like, I get to spend a lot of time working with folks who haven’t yet used the search tool enough to be ready to do anything.

Anyway, give it a whirl and let me know if you see any problems.
