CORELOGIC BOARD RETAINS GREENHILL & CO.

TO EXPLORE ALTERNATIVES TO ENHANCE SHAREHOLDER VALUE

SANTA ANA, Calif., August 29, 2011CoreLogic (NYSE: CLGX), a leading provider of information, analytics and business services, today announced that its Board of Directors has formed a committee of independent directors to explore a wide range of options aimed at enhancing shareholder value including, but not limited to, cost savings initiatives, an evaluation of the Company’s capital structure, possible repurchases of debt and common stock, the potential disposition of business lines, the potential sale or business combination of the Company and other alternatives. The Board has retained Greenhill & Co. to serve as a financial advisor to assist the committee in its evaluation.

Since its June 2010 separation transaction, CoreLogic has taken significant steps to strategically reposition the Company and streamline its operating structure. These actions have included the divestiture of its employer and litigation services businesses, the outsourcing of its India operations to Cognizant, the acquisition of RP Data Limited and aggressive cost cutting and streamlining initiatives. While the Company continues to make significant progress on these initiatives, in light of the challenging economic environment and current market conditions, the Board has determined to look more closely at a range of alternatives with the assistance of a financial advisor.

There is no assurance that the Board’s evaluation will result in any particular transactions. The Company does not expect to make further public comments regarding these matters during its review.
