In September 2024, the Section may have breakfast or lunch meetings; an announcement will be made prior to the first meeting. Speakers present topics ranging from leasing, development, loan transactions, landlord/tenant issues, legislative updates, and other relevant real estate issues. CLE credit of 1.0 hour is given for attendance at each presentation.
The Section participates in and contributes to several community-based fundraising campaigns including Habitat for Humanity, the Harvest Celebration, and the HBA Law Week Fun Run. Monetary scholarships are awarded to a student at each of Houston’s law schools.
