Frequently Asked Questions

Real estate commissions are always negotiable and are not set by law. Following recent industry changes (the 2024 NAR settlement), buyers are required to sign a written buyer representation agreement before I can show you homes. This agreement outlines my services and compensation. In many transactions, the seller may offer to cover the buyer's agent compensation as part of the deal — but this is not guaranteed and depends on the specific transaction. I'll walk you through exactly how compensation works during our first consultation so you understand your options and there are never any surprises.

From the time we start searching to closing day, the typical timeline is 30-60 days once you're pre-approved. The search itself can take anywhere from a few days to a few months depending on your criteria and market conditions. I work at your pace — no rushing.

I serve the Conroe area and surrounding communities including Conroe, Lake Conroe, Montgomery, Willis, The Woodlands, Spring, Tomball, Magnolia, Cypress, and Northwest Houston. If you're looking outside these areas, just ask — I may still be able to help or refer you to a trusted colleague.

Absolutely! Manufactured homes are one of my specialties. I understand the unique financing requirements, inspection processes, title considerations, and land-home package nuances that many agents don't. Visit my Manufactured Homes page to learn more.

Absolutely. I'm an active real estate investor with a portfolio that includes approximately 30 short-term rental properties through my company Breezy Vacation Rentals, plus long-term rental properties. I can help you analyze deals, understand local regulations, run the numbers on cash flow and ROI, and find properties that meet your investment criteria. Check out my STR Investing page for details.

I perform a comprehensive Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) that looks at recent sales, active listings, market trends, your home's condition, upgrades, and location-specific factors. This gives us an accurate, data-driven price recommendation — not a guess.

Three things: honesty, experience, and an investor's mindset. With 700+ transactions, I've seen it all. I'll tell you the truth even when it's not what you want to hear. And because I'm an active investor, I think about properties differently — I focus on real value, not just closing deals.

I recommend getting pre-approved before we start touring homes. It helps us know your budget, makes your offers stronger, and prevents the heartbreak of falling in love with a home you can't qualify for. I can connect you with several trusted lenders to get the process started.
