CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich., Jan. 29, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- RE FormsNet (REFN) announced that the REALTORS(r) Association of New Mexico (RANM) is providing ZipForm(r)Online as a member benefit effective January 1, 2008. ZipForm(r) is the real estate industry's leading provider of real estate forms software. This electronic document solution will help RANM's 8,500 brokers and qualifying brokers enhance their business processes by simplifying the management and completion of real estate contracts.
The architecture of ZipFormOnline makes transactions easily accessible and editable from the office or the field. By simplifying the real estate contract process, the ZipForm software solution seamlessly shares and stores data among all documents related to a transaction from information entered once by a user.
"We were looking for an association-wide solution for our electronic documents that would enable our members to optimize their time and realize enhanced efficiencies," said M. Steven Anaya, Executive Vice President, REALTORS(r) Association of New Mexico. "By providing ZipFormOnline, our brokers and qualifying brokers now have access to the industry's best tools along with functionality they need to increase their business."
Through this relationship, the association's members will have the ability to purchase the ZipForm(r)Desktop and RELAY(r) Transaction Management products, also by RE FormsNet (REFN). The combination of the REFN products offer powerful functionality which saves time as well as costly errors that can occur on the numerous documents required by complex real estate transactions.
"The family of RE FormsNet solutions provides special utilities for qualifying brokers that enable them to manage transactions and forms as well as generate reports at the broker, office and corporate levels," said Robert Bailey, chairman of the board of RE FormsNet. "The members of the REALTOR(r) Association of New Mexico will now be able to reclaim valuable time to plan and pursue growth opportunities."
