HAR no longer using master to describe bedrooms and bathrooms on its property listing database
The Houston Association of Realtors no longer uses the word master to describe bedrooms and bathrooms on its Multiple Listing Service. Earlier this month, HAR replaced the phrases master bedroom and master bathroom with primary bedroom and primary bathroom on its property listing database. The change came after several HAR members called for a review of the terminology. The MLS Advisory Group regularly reviews the terms and fields used in the MLS to make sure they are consistent with the current market environment, according to a statement HAR sent its members regarding the change. It was not a new suggestion to review the terminology, according to the statement HAR sent its members.
