RealtyDecode Research Team

RealtyDecode Research publishes data-driven investigations of the Houston and broader Texas housing market. We are a small team of data engineers and market analysts who built and operate the RealtyDecode data pipeline.

How we work

Every figure we publish is computed from aggregated Houston Association of REALTORS® (HAR) MLS data. Public research communicates aggregate market patterns rather than reproducing listing-level content. Data use and presentation are subject to applicable data-use requirements, privacy obligations and brokerage policies.

Published analysis is reviewed for consistency between the written claims, applicable time period and supporting calculations. Our full method is documented in our methodology.

Editorial standards

  • Aggregate-only publication; small samples are suppressed to avoid noise.
  • Apples-to-apples comparisons: core residential home types, complete months only.
  • Headline vs. underlying view on every story — we surface the contradiction.
  • Every call carries a grading window so we can be held accountable.
