The Texas Real Estate Research Center is the nation’s largest publicly funded organization devoted to real estate research. Our Director of Regulatory Affairs, Doug Foster, has been involved with TRERC since 2021, when he was appointed to the Center’s Advisory Board by Governor Greg Abbott. Doug now serves as the Center’s Board chairman, carrying on its mission of resolving real estate issues through applied research. In a recent conversation with Peter Idziak, Doug discussed his work at TRERC, including its structure, role, mission, priorities, and future.
