About Us

Our mission at ForeclosureRadar is simple: To bring transparency, efficiency and honesty to the foreclosure marketplace.

The foreclosure process has been shrouded in darkness for too long. Get-rich-quick gurus and disreputable list peddlers have thrived in this darkness, manipulating consumers and real estate professionals alike. People who needed help were hard pressed to get it.

We're ending this.

Achieving this mission starts with credible, up-to-date data. ForeclosureRadar is the only place to get reliable information on properties in every phase of the foreclosure process. This includes preforeclosure (when a homeowner is given a notice that they are in default), auction (when the lender takes bids on foreclosed property in a public forum), and REO (or real estate owned, where the lender takes ownership of a property that fails to sell at auction).

Consumers, investors and real estate professionals no longer have to scrape together scattered information to make informed decisions.

We have also created a free online community, ForeclosureTruth.com, where participants in the foreclosure market can interact more efficiently. Consumers find Realtors specializing in foreclosures; Investors source service providers; Lenders connect with brokers to move properties more efficiently. It's all there, out in the open.

But underneath the data, beyond the Website, lies our real difference: An unflinching commitment to speaking the truth about the foreclosure marketplace. Foreclosure is an unpleasant process. There are human beings behind the numbers. Those who want to get rich quick should seek other venues. It's time to clear the air of hype.

Creating a foreclosure market that works better for everyone requires nothing less.

The Team

Sean O'Toole, Founder / CEO
Sean nearly lost his first home to foreclosure twenty years ago. With the help of a local Realtor, he was able to negotiate a short sale with the lender and move on. Years later, after a successful career as a Silicon Valley entrepreneur and executive, Sean returned to the foreclosure market — as an investor. It did not take him long to realize that the foreclosure data and tools he was forced to rely upon were sorely lacking. In purchasing more than 150 foreclosures, it also became clear to Sean that the marketplace itself was deeply fragmented in ways that harmed both consumers and real estate service providers. So he pulled together a development team from his days in technology and got to work.

Gregory Cosmo Haun, Chief Programmer
With a master's degree from MIT, an entrepreneurial spirit and more than ten years of experience, Cosmo Haun is a pragmatic technology and design generalist with a passion for uncovering and exposing hidden truths within data. Credits include founding Codefetch.com, the source code search engine, authoring the acclaimed book "Photoshop Collage Techniques", and creating "Archeological Collage" that used technology and photography to create engaging collages of past and present Oregon. He lends an essential and inimitable perspective to ForeclosureRadar and has been instrumental in the direction and success of the company.
