Auction.com Senior Vice President Eva Tapia Named One Of The Housing Industry's Most Influential Women

IRVINE and SILICON VALLEY, Calif., Aug. 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Auction.com, a Ten-X company, today announced that Eva Tapia, Senior Vice President of Foreclosure and Trustee Operations, has been named one of HousingWire Magazine's 2016 Women of Influence, a list of 43 women within the housing economy who demonstrate leadership that inspires those in their companies, in their communities and in the industry at large.

"Eva has dedicated the past 20 years of her career to serving as a problem solver, leader and trusted partner to banks, servicers, government agencies, company executives and the employees she manages," said Jason Allnutt, General Manager of Auction.com. "Her deep industry expertise, spot-on instincts and unwavering drive make her a valuable resource to everyone she works with, and we're thrilled that HousingWire has honored her in this way."

As Senior Vice President of Foreclosure and Trustee Operations for Auction.com, Tapia manages and has significantly grown the company's Third Party Sales program, which provides a marketing, educational, training and auction disposition service for lenders and servicers intending to sell properties in default at foreclosure sales. This program, which is by far the largest of its kind in the country, has transformed what was previously the purview of "industry insiders" into an open environment where anyone who is financially qualified can bid on property, thereby improving both the sell through rate and return of Auction.com's clients.

She is a role model and an advocate for women in the real estate industry, participating in Women in Legal Leadership (WILL) as a part of her membership with the American Legal & Financial Network (ALFN). A First Generation American, she serves as an important role model for other Hispanic professionals looking to pave their own successful career paths.

This is the sixth year that HousingWire has recognized the women leading the housing industry forward, and the nominations grow more competitive every year. Program honorees were selected by the editorial staff of HousingWire based on tangible accomplishments over the last 12 months. The list represents every sector of the housing economy: residential mortgage lending, servicing, investing and real estate, as well as those in advocacy positions, including nonprofits and governmental agencies. Winners not only had to excel within their individual companies, but show influence in the wider industry through contributions on panels, publications, mentoring and volunteering.

"It's the influence part of this award that is unique," said Jacob Gaffney, Editor-In-Chief of HousingWire. "The impact of these women is expansive, going far beyond the day-to-day responsibilities they have. These are women who invest their time and energy for the future of our industry, with spectacular results."
