“Courtney was always present on time for reviews of the house of interest. She was genuinely friendly; more importantly, a real pro. Her observations both in regard to the house and contractural matters and attention to detail were excellent. Shannon coordinated and stayed in communication and did an excellent job of screening the contracts. Both Courtney and Shannon diligently extracted information regarding the house that the seller had not revealed initially. They were able to identify important issues that had not been fully disclosed. It was reassuring to work with them.I highly recommend them.They will represent you well.” - T Skeryanc (Google Review)

Dickinson TX History


Dickinson was originally inhabited by Native American tribes known as Karankawa Indians. European settlers began to arrive in the early 1820s. This marked the beginning of European-American settlement in the region.

The town is named after John Dickinson. He is a land surveyor who settled in the area in the 1820s. He played a prominent role in the development of the region.

In the 19th century, Dickinson relied heavily on agriculture. The area prospered as a farming community. The Houston and Henderson Railroad facilitated the transportation of goods and people.

The Galveston Hurricane of 1900 caused widespread destruction in Dickinson. The community worked hard to rebuild in the aftermath of the storm.

By the 20th century, Dickinson saw industrial development. The establishment of refineries and petrochemical plants in nearby areas brought about an influx of workers to the region. This resulted in the growth of residential neighborhoods and developments.

Over the years, Dickinson has experienced residential expansion as more people moved to the area. Zoning regulations and urban planning became more important in shaping the town's layout and character.

Today, Dickinson is a vibrant community with a mix of residential, commercial, and industrial areas. It continues to grow and evolve while preserving its historical roots and small-town charm.
