The Real Estate Bar Association announced today that it has reached a deal to turn publishing responsibilities of REBA News, its official newspaper, over to The Warren Group, a Boston-based media and real estate information company.

REBA, the third largest bar association in Massachusetts, is dedicated to the interests of lawyers practicing in all real estate-related and transactional fields. It serves more than 2,500 members across the commonwealth.

This addition expands The Warren Group’s base of publications and products in the legal field. In January, The Warren Group acquired the publishing rights to Massachusetts Lawyers Journal, the largest circulation legal newspaper in Massachusetts and the official newspaper of the Massachusetts Bar Association.

"We’re excited to be working with REBA," said Vincent M. Valvo, group publisher and editor-in-chief at The Warren Group. "The Association’s mission, and ours, are in alignment: to provide accurate , timely information and intelligence on real estate issues in Massachusetts. And with our expanding lineup of legal publications, we know we can bring substantial resources in support of REBA News."

The arrangement allows REBA to retain editorial control over the monthly publication while bringing in significant publishing expertise and investment.

"We see this as a desirable way to improve REBA News, while showcasing the Association to a broader audience," said Tom Moriarty, President of the Real Estate Bar Association. "We’re looking forward to collaborating with a company as respected and successful as The Warren Group."

The Warren Group is publisher of Banker & Tradesman, a weekly newspaper serving the financial services, real estate and professional markets in Massachusetts. The company tracks real estate and mortgage transactions in every community in Massachusetts.
