I've been getting emails from them a long time. It's a legit website. You do have to pay a monthly fee for them. Reading articles about foreclosures, i always see stats from their website quoted.

i think its legit - but they also have FSBO postings as well as "pre-forclosures" and such. so not everything on there is a true foreclosure.

Re: Has anyone heard of "RealtyTrac.com"
I did the free trial run last week. I sent my realtor 12 'bank owned' properties listed. ALL were SOLD in the previous 120 days. Now I understand that not everything can be updated the day of closing ... but a 4 month delay is ridiculous. To me that is a waste of time to sort through.
In addition to that, I looked at some Pre-Forclosures. None of them were for sale. The reasons for the pre-forclosure were various but none of them were coming onto the market anytime soon.
The resale houses were all online at mls sites.
There were a few FSBO houses, but I am sure they would be listed on other sites too ..
It seems like the site pulls everything together (mls, foreclosures, fsbo) ... and it is super easy to use ... but I did not like that it was not updated regularly..
