"SERVICE WITH EXCELLENCE"

I am a native Houstonian and have lived in North Houston, Southwest Houston, and now West Houston.  I am married to my college sweetheart from the University of Texas at Austin and boasts 4 wonderful children (1 boy and 3 girls).  On our journey as parents of 2 children, my wife and I, being Christians and adherers to our calling, felt God moving us in a different direction after the earthquake in Haiti. Our younger 2 daughters are adopted from Haiti and now reside with us. We are grateful for the calling on our life and the opportunity to change these 2 girls lives forever.

With that said, changing lives is what it is all about right?  That leads me to my current journey as a real estate agent.  As an agent and native Houstonian, the opportunity of home ownership in a culture as rich and diverse as ours is endless! I spent a majority of my career helping clients realize capital gains and now IT IS YOUR TURN to live Larger Than Life!  Of course, you're asking - "How Do I Do That?"  All things are possible if we BELIEVE.  Allow me to help you sell or buy your home and lets Live Larger Together.  Here are just a 3 Major things I can do for you:

Here are just a 3 Major things I can do for you:

Find Your Next Home - You need someone who knows this area inside and out and can provide a market analysis tailored to fit your needs! I will work with you to find the right home at the right price for you, including all the neighborhood amenities that matter.

Sell a Home - When it is time to move, you need someone who will market and advertise your home, show to prospective buyers, negotiate the purchase contract, arrange financing, oversee the inspections, handle all necessary paperwork and supervise the closing. I will take care of everything you need, from start to close.

Getting Ready - Often, buyers do not visualize living in your home the way you do. I can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Staging your home, making necessary repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the game changer between a home sitting on the market and one that sells fast.
