As the Greater Houston area begins our journey to recovery from Hurricane Ike, things are happening to speed that healing.

I know that Active Rain is more than 100,000 concerned real estate professionals.  And eventhough I was ready to close my computer for the night, I thought I would share this resource link for the "rainers".  Still, one week after the storm made its way onto the Gulf Coast, more than half of our population does not have power.  I was lucky to have mine restored at 4:30 this morning.

The Houston Association of Realtors recognizes that many of our fellow agents are in need right now.  Some have lost homes and others have suffered other devastating effects of Ike.  In response to that need, HAR has set up a resource page for the members: www.har.com/emergency 

If any real estate professionals in Active Rain are seeking a way to help others, I encourage you to share what you can with the members in HAR who are suffering right now.
