Although I am an Austin broker I have had Turnquist Partners, REALTORS® listings on HAR.com for almost 5 years. My leads are free, there are no competitors on my listings and they have been viewed over 416,000 times. I am an HAR.com fan

Steve Barnes
President/COOHouston Region

Coldwell Banker United, REALTORS®

Coldwell Banker United, REALTORS® listings in the Houston area were viewed 545,000 times in January on HAR.com. As a broker operating in other Texas locations we are excited that HAR will soon invite brokers across Texas to add their listings to HAR.com at no cost.

Krisstina Wise,
CEO

GoodLife Companies

I plan to add all our goodLife Realty listings to HAR.com as another place to expose our listings for our sellers, but that doesn’t require a third-party syndicator who doesn’t serve the agent, or the consumer for that matter. I especially love this because all of my listing calls will come back to me, the listing agent, so that I/we can offer the consumer the information they want on our sellers’ homes. This is what I call a win-win.

Virginia Cook,
CEO

Virginia Cook, REALTORS®

HAR.com is the #2 real estate website in Texas after Zillow and REALTOR® listings were viewed 37 million times in January. We are so pleased that we will soon be able to add all our listings to HAR.com at no cost. We congratulate HAR for ALWAYS helping our Agents grow their business in this Digitized 21st Century! Bravo! Bravo from your Dallas fellow REALTORS®.
