ServiceLive.com and The National Fix and Flip Network Join Forces to Help Real Estate Investors Save Time and Money Fixing Up Homes
HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill., July 22 /PRNewswire/ -- In an economy where the
foreclosure rate is skyrocketing, more and more real estate investors are
buying foreclosed homes to "Fix and Flip." ServiceLive.com and The National
Fix and Flip Network are working together to help those investors save time
and money on home repairs and improvements through the new ServiceLive.com
online services marketplace.
"Our members are constantly buying homes in foreclosure which typically
need a tremendous amount of work," said Eric M. Dale, vice president of The
National Fix and Flip Network. "We are delighted to work together with
ServiceLive to help our members save time and money on their extensive
projects. With ServiceLive, they can name their price, their schedule and
not pay until they are completely satisfied with the work! You can't ask
for anything better than that!" explained Dale.
"The National Fix and Flip Network is a great resource for real estate
investors, so we're thrilled to be part of the network," said George Coll,
president of ServiceLive. "ServiceLive.com offers those investors the tools
to help them manage a large number of projects and save time and money."
NFAFN is encouraging both the contractors who are listed in its
directory and its membership to join the ServiceLive marketplace.
ServiceLive.com will have a significant presence on the NFAFN site
(http://www.nfafn.com) through banners and editorial copy explaining the benefits
of hiring service pros through the online marketplace. In addition,
ServiceLive is sponsoring NFAFN's "$150,000 Fix for Free Giveaway," by
providing the labor required to fix up the winning home.
"NFAFN members will have the peace of mind knowing that all of our
service pros have been pre-screened," said Coll. "As well as the control of
naming their price and preferred schedule."
