HousingWire said Thursday it is expanding its news coverage to directly cover the real estate agent community.

Jessica Guerin of HousingWire writes, “HousingWire announced today that Kathleen “KK” Howley will be joining the company’s editorial team in the newly created role of real estate editor.

“‘American residential real estate is an almost $30 trillion asset class, and for most families, a home is the largest investment they’ll ever make,’ Howley said. ‘Real estate agents will always be a vital part of this transaction and they deserve better access to improved content.
