RentalForeclosure Partners With Baird & Warner To Provide Assistance To Chicago Renters.

Renters in the Chicago area can now check online to see if their landlord is facing foreclosure and receive assistance from local professionals.

Chicago, IL, September 10, 2008:  Every single day in the Chicago area more homes go into foreclosure. If you happen to be renting one of those homes, chances are you would be the last to know, until now. RentalForeclosure.com, a free service, is now available in the Chicago area for renters to quickly and easily check to see if their landlord is in foreclosure.

To provide local assistance to distressed renters, RentalForeclosure has partnered with Baird & Warner Real Estate in Chicago. “We talked with several companies in the Chicago area and found that the best match for our users was Baird & Warner,” said Shawn Shepherd, co-founder of RentalForeclosure. “Baird & Warner really understands what we are trying to do and genuinely wants to help people in their community,” Shepherd added.

To find out about their property, for free, renters simply go to www.rentalforeclosure.com, select the county and city then enter the rental’s street address. If there is a default or pending foreclosure sale the website will let the user know immediately. If there are no defaults the renter has the option to be notified by the website if their landlord does go into default via RentalForeclosure’s free E-Notify system.

After finding out about a landlord’s pending foreclosure renters usually want to know what their options are and that’s where Baird & Warner’s real estate professionals come into the picture. They are available to provide assistance and guidance to RentalForeclosure.com users on a local level. Each of Baird & Warner’s agents that participate in the RentalForeclosure Assistance Program receives specific training from their company on how to assist renters in this situation.
