March 23 State of the Industry Summit will feature Johnson, Leach, Gaines
Presented in partnership with Hotchkiss Insurance Agency, the March 23 State of the Industry Summit will delve into the political and economic landscape for housing in the year ahead.
The program will begin with a discussion with Sen. Nathan Johnson (D-Dallas) and Rep. Jeff Leach (R-Plano) about the state of Texas politics, the priorities of the state legislature and discussion of issues that impact housing.
Both legislators have an excellent track record of supporting Association priorities. The discussion, facilitated by Executive Officer Phil Crone, will demonstrate that housing affordability is a bipartisan issue.
The second half of the program will feature research economist Dr. Jim Gaines from Texas A&M University’s
Texas Real Estate Research Center. Dr. Gaines will dive into the supply side constraints that continue to hinder
the housing industry. He will also discuss disruptions to the energy sector and overall economic impact resulting from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
In addition to title partner Hotchkiss Insurance Agency, PermaPier Foundation Repair is a program partner.
This event will be held at Venue Forty|50 in Addison with breakfast served at 8:30 a.m. and the program beginning at 9 a.m. Tickets are $25 per person for members; $35 for non-members. Reservations can be made here.
