“I wish we could give 10 Stars! We have had the pleasure of working with many Realtors in the 4 states we have lived in the last 10 years. The Houston Properties Team (HPT) is by far the “cream of the crop”. We vetted numerous agents before selecting HPT. We were completely wowed by their presentation, knowledge of the market and professionalism. We do not impress easily and I can assure you, they exceeded every expectation. They prepared us for potential obstacles and successes, they provided great recommendations for contractors we needed, and they communicated well throughout the process. Their entire process is detailed, thoughtful, responsive, intuitive and designed for success. They were even sensitive to and supportive of keeping our pets needs in mind during showings and inspections. All I can say is if you choose Courtney and her team, you will not be disappointed!” - Robyn Wv (Google Review)
