LOUISVILLE, Ky., Jan. 19, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Program 3648 announces the recently formed partnership with Casey Margenau, five-time #1 Re/Max real estate agent worldwide. Currently, Margenau’s team is one of Re/Max’s top 10 teams internationally. Margenau has been a Re/Max Agent for over 20 years, and for more than a decade he has been a top producer in Northern Virginia.

Most recently, Margenau has focused a considerable amount of his efforts on helping homeowners facing a potential foreclosure. Just last year alone he prevented foreclosure for over 100 homeowners. Despite his astounding success in helping distressed homeowners, Margenau is hesitant to discuss his personal accomplishments. Regarding his achievements, he states, “People don’t care about them. What homeowners facing foreclosure want right now is someone with proven experience, who can help them through a difficult and often-times painful process. They want someone who cares, and can fix their problem, and help put their life back on a better track. That is what my team is here to do.”
Margenau and Program 3648 have joined forces, in hopes of leveraging Program 3648’s proven short sale systems with Margenau’s vast experience and expertise, in an effort to help more homeowners. Program 3648 is a privately sponsored, nationwide initiative whose mission is to help homeowners avoid foreclosure. Program 3648 trains licensed real estate professionals in most markets throughout the country. These licensed agents then act as a “ground army” of volunteers, reaching out to homeowners who may need assistance. Under Program 3648, Certified Program 3648 Representatives (CPR’s), offer assistance to help distressed homeowners, at no cost whatsoever. Program 3648 helps real estate professionals establish contact with distressed homeowners, then Program 3648 handles all the time-demanding paper work and processing required to successfully complete a short sale. This unique program allows real estate professionals to help more homeowners, by allowing them to focus on their core competencies: listing and selling properties. Kenn Lewis, Co-founder of Program 3648, states, “Program 3648’s system is designed to meticulously coordinate and leverage the strengths of all parties involved in a short sale transaction to create the biggest win-win-win scenario possible. Homeowners are helped at no cost whatsoever; realtors thrive in a difficult market without suffering the administrative headaches and steep learning curve associated with short sales; lenders maximize their loss mitigation outcomes; neighborhoods and markets are spared the blight of neglected foreclosed homes; everybody wins.”
Lewis continues, “We need more agents that share the same mindset as Casey Margenau. He understands the big picture. He understands that in order for him to help as many homeowners as possible, he must leverage his efforts with other partners who share the same goals. One thing I’ve learned about Casey Margenau already is that he doesn’t sweat the small stuff; he stays focused on his role in helping his clients solve their problem.
With Certified Program 3648 Representatives now positioned in most markets nationwide, Program 3648, along with its Representatives, stands poised, ready, and eager to help any homeowner in need of help.
