Texas realtors will refer to 'master bedrooms' as 'primary' in home sale listings because of the old terminology's references to slavery
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] - The Houston Association of Realtors has quietly decided to drop the use of the word 'master' from its sales listings and to replace it with 'primary'
- The change came after members complained of the word master's references to slavery when used to describe a property's main bedroom or bath
- The association made the change to its Multiple Listing Service on June 15, after an advisory group received nine requests for the change
- Realtors still can go back to using the word master as deemed appropriate in marketing materials and for public speaking, the association says.
