On June 11, Inman News reported on a special demo of the new, statewide property listing version of HAR.com that HAR staged for journalists in Houston for the annual National Association of Real Estate Editors (NAREE) conference. Houston is the only market in the U.S. in which Zillow is not the No. 1 real estate search portal.

Ed Wolff, 2014 Local Issues Chair of HAR’s Governmental Advisory Group, was a guest on Houston Public Media/KUHF’s Houston Matters program on June 2, talking about the regulatory aspects of Houston-area homeowners associations (HOAs).
