Realestate.com, the online real estate destination owned by the online mortgage giant LendingTree, rolled out a new sitewide redesign last week.

The nice folks at Scripps sent me an email fleshing out more detail about Frontdoor’s Facebook Connect integration. I’ve excerpted a few sections below since they give some greater context to the feature.
