Item 8.01 Other Events.

On March 5, 2007, American Realty Investors, Inc. (the “Company” or “ARL” or the “Issuer”) received official notice from the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) of a CEO certification disclosure issue under Section 303A.12(a) of the Listed Company Manual. The Company timely submitted its annual Chief Executive Officer Certification to the NYSE in December 2006, although the Company inadvertently omitted to state in its 2005 Annual Report to Stockholders that it had made such submission. ARL will include the required disclosure in future annual reports as required. The disclosure of this omission from the last Annual Report to Stockholders is a cure of the disclosure deficiency according to the NYSE notice. The disclosure which should have been included in the Annual Report to Stockholders is that the Company has submitted to the NYSE a certificate of the acting Principal Executive Officer of the Company certifying that he is not aware of any violation by the Company of NYSE corporate governance listing standards.
