“Review for Brad Evans, Realtor (Houston Properties Team) Brad is a gift to his clients. There is a reason this group is the #1 Boutique Real Estate Team in Houston — And Brad is a perfect embodiment of what you would expect from such a team. We have bought and sold four homes at this point and Brad represented us as Buyers in this transaction (Bridgeland in Cypress, TX). We can say, without reservation, that we’ve had a beyond 5 star experience with him. Everything was smooth from start to finish, even in a multiple offer scenario in which we were up against an over-asking cash offer. It could have easily been a more stressful situation, but Brad has a way of presenting facts and talking through information with his clients that keeps the feeling of the situation positive and invites trust. We never felt pushed or rushed to accept anything during the entire transaction that was not 100% in our best interest. He is tactful in his presentation, even when put on the spot, and responsive to emails, texts, and phone calls; he’s also fantastic and quick at obtaining info his clients need or want.; moreover, we greatly appreciated his total honesty and transparency through the process and he being flexible with our timings. He is a consummate professional, with a personal touch. As busy as their group must be, he definitely made us feel that we were his only clients and his #1 priority. He gave credit time and again, saying “the entire team at Houston Properties is terrific”, so you can’t go wrong with them, but Brad is whom we had the pleasure of being connected with, and we recommend him 1,000x over.” - Stephanie Ubale (Google Review)
