Steve made our move from out of state to the Houston Heights super simple and as low stress as possible. He showed us countless homes over two different weekends and helped us find a great place in Woodland Heights that has access to everything along with a great vibe. Can't recommend Steve enough!
SHAUN TWOMEY
Hands down best realtor. We listed, received multiple offers the first weekend and were under contract in under within 10 days, above listing price.
BRIAN FLICKINGER
Couldn’t have asked for a better realtor and someone who truly looks out for your interests (even when the deal is done) which was key for us as first time homebuyers. He is also truly an expert with all things home buying in the broader Houston market and would recommend him time and time again.
LAURA WARREN
Before working with Steven, we struggled to get our house sold, but once he stepped in, everything changed. Thanks to his expertise, our house sold quickly.
JEANETT HOLIFIELD
We were looking for homes on our own when we met Steven at an Open House. I called him to ask him about the home that we saw, & our journey began. He ended up showing us many homes before we fell in love with a home in the historic Houston Heights. We were nervous about selling our home in Katy, but Steven helped us navigate every step of the way- leading to an offer over our list price.
GERALD REUTER
Steve is truly one of a kind. He goes above and beyond for his clients, and makes you feel like family. We bought our first home with him almost 7 years ago, and he still keeps in contact with us on a regular basis. He is always willing to lend advice. We trust him wholeheartedly and recommend him to everyone we know!
SARAH TINNEL
From start to finish, Steven was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. He made the entire process smooth and stress-free, and his expertise really showed.
