“Ok, let me be very clear; Mary Elam is phenomenal at what she does. Her strategy was spot on. She came prepared with the most up to date market data. She knew exactly how to price the property to bring in the highest quantity and quality of buyers. She gave realistic expectations and goals, with a clear plan on how to reach the markets peak selling point. She brought in her staging consultant, who was also fantastic, and gave advice that transformed our lovely home into a buyer magnet. She provided a top notch photographer that had everyone looking at our picture perfect home online. Her coming soon advertising and networking set us up perfectly for the showings and open house. With all that preparation we had 18 offers after showing our house on a Friday, Saturday, and Monday; all of which were over asking price. After that we sat down together and analyzed the qualities of all the offers and picked some awesome buyers. We closed without any issues and ahead of schedule plus some additional benefits like free lease back for a month. In the end, Mary surpassed our best expectations, earning us a tremendous return on our investment, and her excellent work propelled us into our forever home in Arizona. In conclusion, if you need a realtor® who can make the selling process minimally stressful and maximally lucrative in the Houston area, I would refer you Mary Elam without any reservation. Furthermore, I have no doubts that she is just as skilled on the other side of the equation assisting buyers."

Learn moreHello Everyone!
My name is Lynn Blair- Broker/Owner of Blair Realty Group. I am the mother of 2 beautiful children and was an elementary school teacher for 15 years in the Cy-Fair area. I continue to substitute for the district! I guess I just can't get away from my LOVE of teaching. I also coach Special Olympics Track and Swimming for the Cy-Fair school district and foster for the local Cypress dog rescue, Cypress Lucky Mutts. Aside from my love of children and animals, I have always had a passion for real estate. I have been an investor along with my husband (whom is a realtor® as well) since 2009.
Nine years ago, I made my dream a reality and took up real estate along side my husband, Cody. Last year I became a broker and we opened doors to BLAIR REALTY GROUP in Fairfield. We have lived in Fairfield, in the Cypress area, for over 15 years and have watched it grow from FARfield, to one of the most beautiful, outstanding neighborhoods in the Houston area. I love this area and know how amazing it has been to live, work, play, and start a family here.
Blair Realty Group prides ourselves in customer service and making sure we find you EXACTLY what you are looking for! We service anywhere from Katy, Cypress, Tomball, Spring and MORE!
My GROUP and I CANNOT WAIT TO MAKE YOUR DREAM A REALITY AND FIND YOU THE PERFECT HOME!
