Weekend reading: the Blog Squad and more

- The Real Estate Blog Squad has been covering the National Association of Realtors conference in San Francisco with a big assortment of insider perspectives. Not entirely our cup of tea because the focus over there is single-family, not multifamily housing, but probably worth a glance or two for information about the state of markets, etc. One expert there, for example, recommends buying condos in Jacksonville, Austin and Boise.

- The Houston Chronicle says the real estate boom anticipated in New Orleans isn't happening after all.

- The National Association of Mortgage Brokers is happy with the form in which HR 1461 passed the House. By the way, their site has Katrina relief information for the mortgage business that I think we haven't cited here previously.

[MORE: For folks who would have liked to attend the NAHRO conference earlier this month, they've posted an extensive list of handouts from the sessions, some available for free download, some available in hard copy by request.]
