KANSAS, CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATIONS INSTALL SENTRILOCK REALTOR(TM) LOCKBOXES

CHICAGO (November 30, 2004) – Add Hutchinson, Kansas and Hemet/San Jacinto, California to the growing list of REALTOR® Associations that have converted to SentriLock REALTOR^TM Lockboxes. This means another 1,400 residences are secured by the popular system. The Hutchinson Association of REALTORS® was the first in Kansas to move up to SentriLock.

“Our president saw a demo at an NAR conference and was impressed,” said Peggy Thompson, Association Executive, Hutchinson Association of REALTORS®. “The REALTOR^TM Lockbox stood up to our due diligence and side by side comparisons with other products. It was SentriLock’s array of features, easy-to-use website and computerized tracking and analysis capabilities that made the difference in the end.”

The Hemet-San Jacinto Association of REALTORS® was pleased with NAR’s role in developing and introducing the REALTOR^TM Lockbox.

“Our area is experiencing tremendous growth and new construction, so it’s really a combination of the right thing at the right time,” said Donna Wheeler, Association Executive, Hemet-San Jacinto Association of REALTORS®. “The marketplace needed some differentiation, and SentriLock and NAR responded. The technology behind the REALTOR^TM Lockbox is helping our members capitalize on the momentum in the housing market – we’re very satisfied.”

“Each of these Associations realized very quickly how the REALTOR^TM Lockbox fits into the transaction process,” said Scott Fisher, president of SentriLock, LLC. “Maximizing REALTORS®’ ability to collect and leverage relevant information from the system leads to more and faster transactions.”

“Right away our members were saying, ‘I love this!’ and ‘This is a great solution!’” said Thompson. “With all that goes into a conversion, it’s gratifying to know our members feel we really made a smart move with SentriLock.”

REALTOR^TM Lockboxes are sold through REALTOR® Associations and MLSs under contract with SentriLock. Associations and MLSs interested in more information should contact a SentriLock representative at 877-736-8745.
