BankerMLS Adds Thousands of Properties To Bank Direct Foreclosure Website

New Additions Expand Website Footprint to 30+ States

Birmingham, Ala., September 23, 2009 – BankerMLS (www.bankermls.com), a web-based application designed to enable financial institutions to obtain maximum exposure and value for repossessed assets and to provide consumers with access to foreclosed properties direct from said financial institutions, today announced that it has added thousands of new foreclosed properties to its website. The new additions expand the BankerMLS footprint to 30 plus states and are a result of new contracts with several financial institutions.

David Brasfield, CEO of TriNovus, the company that developed BankerMLS, says they have seen a huge increase in website traffic recently and believes that it is due to the unique way that BankerMLS provides foreclosure information to the public.

“With BankerMLS, foreclosed property information becomes available to the public in the most expedient way”, said Brasfield. “The banks update BankerMLS themselves, meaning as soon as they have foreclosed properties available, they can immediately list them on BankerMLS.com.”

Brasfield went on to say that with BankerMLS, there is no courthouse retrieval lag time – every property is real time and the information is accurate because it is coming directly from the source.

Brasfield added, “With listings found on BankerMLS.com, you KNOW the seller is motivated.”
BankerMLS has also added a new feature where consumers can subscribe to a state specific RSS feed so they can be the first to know of new property listings in particular states of interest.
With foreclosure rates at continued record highs, Brasfield and the creators behind BankerMLS believe in the power of their solution to help banks to obtain relief from burdensome foreclosures while at the same time exposing consumers to quality real estate at a good price.

Wedbush Bank Selects TriNovus
For Vendor Management Solution

Companies Collaborate To Deliver Improved Product to the Marketplace


Birmingham, Ala., July 28, 2009 –TriNovus (www.trinovus.com ), a company focused on delivering relevant technology solutions to the marketplace, today announced that Wedbush Bank (www.wedbushbank.com ) has selected TriNovus to provide its vendor management services through the use of the company’s BankerVMS (www.bankervms.com) product. Wedbush Bank is an entrepreneur and business bank headquartered in Los Angeles offering a wide range of financial solutions tailored to corporate customers, executives and professionals.
TriNovus’ BankerVMS will enable Wedbush Bank to better manage its vendors throughout relationship lifecycles and will help Wedbush Bank to reduce costs, meet compliance guidelines, improve contract terms and increase the value yielded from each vendor.

One aspect of BankerVMS that initially attracted Radhika Dholakia, Wedbush Bank’s chief banking officer, to the product was the vendor management software’s compliance piece.
“Wedbush Bank is very committed to meeting regulatory requirements as per FFIEC guidance,” said Dholakia. “When management evaluated BankerVMS, the compliance piece was a huge factor in our decision to implement the product.”

After initially previewing BankerVMS, Dholakia worked with TriNovus’ chief information officer, Terry Ray to review risk elements, build a test environment and provide suggestions for a change in the compliance scale to help develop a more robust compliance piece.

“Radhika’s input was very valuable in helping us to strengthen the risk management module of BankerVMS,” said Ray. “We value our collaboration with her and the rest of the Wedbush staff and feel that our symbiotic relationship has resulted in TriNovus delivering an even stronger product to the marketplace.”

Dholakia added, “The strength and breadth of the BankerVMS solution will help each TriNovus client easily control and monitor vendor risk.”

TriNovus’ relationship with Wedbush Bank marks the company’s expansion to the west coast.
“BankerVMS fulfills a great need in the vendor management space,” said David Brasfield, chief executive officer of TriNovus. “Banks are always going to be concerned with saving money and ensuring that they are meeting compliance requirements. BankerVMS helps them to do both.”
