Real Estate Forms Applications to Provide Additional Value with Data Integration


CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich., March 14, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- ZipForm(r), the leading brand of forms software for the real estate industry, has been chosen for implementation by Fidelity National Real Estate Solutions, a division of Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (NYSE:FIS) and leading provider of technology, services and solutions to the financial and real estate industries. As part of this new agreement, RE FormsNet(r), LLC, the creator of ZipForm(r), will provide data from ZipForm(r) and WINForms(r) real estate forms applications for integration with Fidelity National Real Estate Solutions' technology offerings.
