Boca Raton, Fla. — January 6, 2010 — Foreclosure.com today announced that it will team up with Inman News to enhance the experience for real estate professionals who attend the annual three-day tradeshow at the Marriott Marquis Times Square in New York, N.Y., from Jan. 13-15, 2010.

“Real Estate Connect New York City 2010” is where more than 1,300 industry professionals gather each year to meet new customers, partners and collaborators in innovation, gaining the competitive advantage to keep up and get ahead.

Accordingly, Connect NYC 2010 attendees will have the opportunity to earn foreclosure and short sale designations through Foreclosure.com Agent University, which are universally recognized as the standard of excellence among real estate professionals.

The hands-on, deal-driven training is included in the cost of admission to Connect NYC 2010, meaning that agents who attend do not have to pay extra to earn two (Certified Foreclosure Agent and Certified Short Sale Agent) important designations.

It’s a savings of more than $1,300, according to Foreclosure.com Director of Education, Linda Yates.

“We know that the agents who have not yet focused on the booming distressed real estate market could be struggling to close deals,” said Yates. “This is their chance to change all that in one fell swoop and start the New Year off right with incredible learning experiences that will be invaluable assets for the rest of their careers.”

Foreclosure.com will host a live, full-day interactive seminar on Jan. 12, 2010, at Connect NYC 2010, certifying agents with its short sale curriculum. Upon completion, Certified Short Sale Agents will be able to get their Certified Foreclosure Agent designations online.

To register for “Real Estate Connect New York City 2010,” and take advantage of the certified short sale and foreclosure agent training while at the show, visit www.inman.com/conferences/CSSA. Please use code “CSSA” at registration.
