@@Under510 thank you and I’m glad you found it useful.

There are light rail lines within Houston but none even close to TW

@@AntonioMartinez-xz3pt hey Antonio! I’m glad that you like the Real estate vocabulary video. Is this the only one of mine that you’ve seen or have you watched the others as well?

You stand in front of door like it you are leaving and compass facing door as if leaving

It’s a great question.…The country clubs in The Woodlands offer a variety of high-end amenities, but not all include dedicated spa facilities. The Woodlands Country Club, known for its five distinct golf courses, extensive racquet sports, fitness centers, and swimming facilities, focuses more on recreational and fitness activities rather than spa services. On the other hand, Carlton Woods Country Club is renowned for its luxurious amenities, which may include wellness services, though specific spa facilities are not explicitly mentioned. If you're specifically seeking spa services, you might need to explore other local facilities or dedicated spas in The Woodlands area.

Agreed! My clients are buying an existing home from Davidson Homes, and they have been fantastic every step of the way.

Fantastic question! It is a preventative measure that builders and communities are putting into place.

@@MovingtoHouston01 whew great to know . I’ve been avoiding them . Gladly I finally saw this message . Thank you 🙏

@@SJ-qq6xu absolutely! Let me know if you have any other questions about some of the features. New home builders and newer communities are putting in place.

Hello and thank you for your comment! Everyone is going to be in a different place when it’s the right time for them to start looking for a home. If you are and a good financial position, you should definitely consider purchasing a home before homebuyer demand really starts to skyrocket. At that point, you’re gonna start paying a lot more for a home than if you were to buy one sooner and refinance when interest rates come down.

Great question! When you're using your gas fireplace, you'll want to stick with what's meant to go in there, like ceramic logs, glass beads, or fire stones. These are designed to handle the heat and won't mess with the gas flow or combustion. Make sure not to toss in anything else like wood or paper-it can block the gas and become a real safety issue.

@@MovingtoHouston01 Good to know. Bought a home with one of those fireplaces and have no clue how it works. Even a little concerned with my kids messing around with it and leaving the gas on somehow without me knowing

@@luperamos7307 I get it! That could be a real concern. I’m glad I could help answer your question and please let me know if you have absolutely any other questions. Also, please feel free to text me if there’s anything else you’d like to speak about. My cell phone number is 832-360-3156

I get it… Every area is going to have pros and cons to it. What’s one of your favorite areas around Houston?

Been in Pearland for about 7 years now. It’s not a great community. Sure it’s a relatively quiet place for a family but the people are not great. Diversity seems to have some negative effects imo. People are not nice and it’s relatively low class for a highly rated suburb with “good schools”. It is tremendously overrated in most facets. It might as well be a slight step up from south Houston areas…the people certainly feel like they are right out of the rough areas of south Houston. Of course this isn’t everyone but many. I have lived in many different states and overall, the people in Houston and surrounding areas are miserable and lifeless. Stressed overworked and always on edge. The few nice people you see don’t like to connect with others so there really is no community feel and no way to build friendships face to face. I have two kids in the school system here and I don’t believe the school ratings are an accurate reflection of the actual conditions. So much wrong with Pearland; it really seems they are trying to maintain facade.

There can be bad storms. But one of the amazing things that come from the storms that we have is the extremely landscape that we enjoy all around HOUSTON. From the mature trees to the lush brush and shrubbery, it’s really an amazing city to live in.

Absolutely Kevin! If you have any other questions or want to know a little bit more about our housing market, go ahead and give me a call, I’m happy to answer all of your questions. 832-360-3156.

Thank you!

Great question and the answer is that they’re probably are! Give me a call and let’s discuss it a little bit more in detail. 832-360-3156. I look forward to speaking with you soon!

You are looking at closer to $300k on the low end now.

I absolutely agree! Perry homes is very classy!!

Absolutely, Memorial is hands-down a fantastic place to live. What people really love about it here is the abundance of green spaces. It's like you're living in a lush, peaceful oasis that's just perfect for relaxing or getting active outdoors. And then there's the community vibe - it's super welcoming and active, making it easy to connect with folks and feel like you belong. Can't talk about Memorial without giving a shoutout to the Memorial Country Club! It's pretty much the go-to spot for socializing, with killer golf courses, tennis courts, and some of the best dining options around. It's a great place to chill, meet your neighbors, and join in on the fun events they host throughout the year. And let’s not forget the amazing Memorial Farmers Market. It turns shopping into a fun weekend adventure with its fresh produce, unique artisan goods, and super friendly atmosphere. It’s a place where you can really get to know the local farmers and crafters, all while enjoying the freshest finds and supporting local businesses. It just adds that extra sprinkle of charm to living in Memorial, making it not just a place to live, but a place to thrive and enjoy life to the fullest!

I think the Woodlands has a lot going on for it. Whether it be the outdoor activities, the schools, or the employment opportunities… Woodlands is a fantastic choice for a place to raise a family.

Getting a variance is time-consuming and majority of the times will not be approved. However, Once you’ve gotten some guidance from the Houston Planning and Development Department, you’ll move on to the crucial step: filling out the "Variance Application." This form is where you’ll detail your property specifics, precisely what variance you’re requesting, and the reasons behind it. Think of it as painting a picture for the city, showing why the usual rules just don’t fit your situation. After submitting, your request might be reviewed publicly, letting neighbors have a say. It’s all about making a strong, clear case with that application. If you want to try another route, you can always go door-to-door and have your neighbors sign a petition, allowing you to alter the deed restrictions to allow your property to do what you’re trying to do. Just make sure that you have an attorney review that document and write up the adjustments you’d like to have made to it.

Thank you, Alice! I’m always happy to help and full of useful information.

Apologies, I’m not sure exactly what you mean. When the institutional investors purchase these properties, they’re doing it with the sole intent of leasing them out. Normally, with their business model, they are going to purchase the property for as little as possible, while still winning the bid.

I know of several! Give me a call or text to talk about them. 832-360-3156

Absolutely, my house is facing one direction and my front door is on the side of the house. Am I pointing the compass when coming in or when leaving the house? What direction am I standing to get if it east or west? Or am I using the direction of the house or the door?

@@FM-nk1zh you stand in the middle of your doorway looking outside This is easiest advice for a beginner to self measure. Hold the compass horizontal at the level of your chest. The number facing away from your chest directly (ie where the compass needle exactly falls) is your door direction/compass degree. Your compass should ideally also show the degrees (ie the digits) for precision. Therefore when telling your practitioner the direction please tell them the exact degrees and they will know what direction exactly that is.

@@mmapinkallThank you so much!❤

I’m sure you’re already aware of this, but there is no zoning in Houston.

Hey Joe! Thanks for sharing your insights on your housing market. It's fascinating to see how real estate trends can vary from place to place. In Houston, we've been lucky to witness a consistent 5% annual increase in single-family home values for decades, supported by our rapid population growth. 📈 It's concerning to hear about the challenges posed by investors causing price decreases in your area. Striking the right balance between investment activity and maintaining affordability for homeowners can be tricky.

Just felt like rotating… Thank you for watching the video!

Hello, and thank you for watching the video. The weep hole “weeps” moisture that builds up in between the outer wall and the inner wall. Its main purpose is to keep moisture buildup out of that area to avoid mold.

@@MovingtoHouston01 This explanation doesn't make sense. Why the drip tray inside if it just "weeps"?

Hello again! Drip trays are not typically located inside the walls of a residential structure. Drip trays are commonly used in various appliances or systems like air conditioners, but they are not a standard component within wall structures. Weep holes, on the other hand, are designed to allow moisture to drain out of walls in certain construction contexts, such as brick walls.
