44% of Texas agents have another job, and 54% work part-time (Texas Association of Realtors). That means many agents are juggling other priorities—your dream home isn’t their full-time focus.
71% of licensed agents didn’t sell a single home in 2024 (Redfin).
Up to 50% of new agents stop producing within two years (National Association of Realtors).
Before we ever tour a home, we sit down for an in-depth conversation about your lifestyle, goals, and timeline. Do you need space for kids or pets? Do you entertain often? Want peace and quiet, or something walkable? Are schools, commute time, or resale potential important?
We cover your must-haves, dealbreakers, preferred monthly payment, and whether this is your forever home, a starter home, or even something you plan to turn into a rental down the line—those details shape the entire strategy.
Before the fun begins, we make sure you’re financially ready. I’ll connect you with trusted lenders who can get you pre-approved quickly and competitively.
This not only shows sellers you’re serious when you find your dream home—it also gives us your true buying power so we don’t waste time (or heartbreak) on homes outside your range.
Now the fun begins! I help you find the homes that fit—not just what’s on the MLS, but also off-market opportunities and listings you may have missed.
I point out red flags, help you compare options, and make sure every showing brings you closer to the one.
When you’re ready to make an offer, I do a full market analysis to make sure you’re not overpaying. And I gather all the information I can prior to going in.
If it’s a multiple-offer situation, I work to build rapport with the listing agent to give you an edge, and craft a strong offer that protects your interests—without stretching your budget.
I make sure you understand every document before signing, and I negotiate fiercely on your behalf.
I connect you with trusted inspectors. If anything needs a second opinion, I bring in trusted and reliable contractors.
We review the report together and discuss repair requests or credits—always aiming to protect your investment without jeopardizing the deal.
If the home turns out to be a money pit? I’ll advise you accordingly and make sure you walk away with your earnest money intact.
I stay hands-on through the finish line.
I review your HOA docs, title policy, repair receipts, and closing statements. I confirm all agreed repairs are complete and keep you informed every step of the way—so you’re never in the dark and never caught off guard.

I’ll keep you in the loop with listings that match — and help you be ready when the right one hits the market.
