ORLANDO, Fla., Sept. 26, 2023 (Realty Wire) — Florida Realtors® and FOREWARN®, LLC, a red violet company (NASDAQ: RDVT) are joining forces to promote and enhance the safety of Realtors® while they’re working to help buyers and sellers across Florida.
Florida Realtors has contracted to make FOREWARN services available at no additional cost for its 238,000 members, beginning in January 2024. FOREWARN is a leading provider of real-time information solutions for real estate agents.
Available both online and through a mobile application, FOREWARN analyzes billions of data points and provides users with the ability to mitigate risks by verifying identities and validating information provided by potential clients – using just a phone number.
