Real estate industry executive Bess Freedman has defended the use of transparent market metrics, particularly days-on-market data, as essential to maintaining market efficiency. Freedman characterized these metrics as factual information that serves the broader real estate ecosystem.
Freedman argued that the U.S. real estate market's transparency, while not perfect, positions it favorably compared to international markets due to its operational efficiency. The comments come amid ongoing industry discussions about data sharing and market transparency practices.
