Dream chasing, being evolutionary, and serving are the foundations of my journey. My aim is to help you seek and secure the property that fits your needs. If I don't specialize in it, I have a trusted resource that does. Allow Tam to represent you in all of your leasing, purchasing, selling, and investment needs.

Looking to buy or sell in Conroe, Montgomery, Willis and the surrounding areas? Please reach out! I'm ready to help you find your dream property or sell yours so you can move onto your next step.

My specialties are Lake Conroe community homes and land and horse properties throughout the Montgomery, Grimes, Walker and NW Harris County region. I live lakeside on Lake Conroe and am also a lifelong equestrian — so I have both personal and professional knowledge of these types of properties and transactions.

I'm also a career digital marketer and take full advantage of online tools -- far beyond what most realtors offer. I leverage tech to make your home search easy and convenient, and to effectively market properties to an audience of ready buyers.

Buyers enjoy:

>> Curated home listings conveniently delivered to your phone via my HAR Home Search app

>> Quick and easy pre-filtered lakefront, area community, and horse property searches on my Houston Hill Country Realty website

>> Property options beyond just HAR/MLS listings -- I actively seek properties that fit your needs in off-market listings, For Sale by Owner properties, and targeted social media queries to find potential sellers of properties not yet listed

>> Careful handling of specialized deals, like lakefront, senior living, and horse property transactions

Sellers enjoy:

>> Property marketing above and beyond the standard HAR/MLS/Zillow/Trulia listings -- all realtors give you that! I'm a social media specialist who knows how to leverage Facebook, Instagram, NextDoor, YouTube, and other platforms to reach buyers for your specific property

>> Coldwell Banker's marketing magic and concierge listing tools, including "coming soon" marketing, property videos run on local TV, virtual tours, Facetime showings, marketed open house events, and much more
