8 Reasons to Buy with Us

Here’s what makes us unique

There are over 40,000 agents servicing the greater Houston area through the Houston Association of Realtors, among other smaller private boards. As a Buyer, you certainly have no lack of options when it comes to choosing an Agent to represent you through the buying process. So naturally, that begs the question, why choose Avenue Property Group? Well… we’ll give you our 8 reasons to buy with us.

Our educated team of professionals eat, sleep and breathe real estate. We honor our fiduciary responsibilities to ensure that you understand what is happening in our market and why. We have lived, worked and played in the Katy and Fulshear area since 1979. We know this area inside and out. And we are committed, above all else, to making sure you feel informed about our communities, neighborhood metrics, and the entire homebuying process.

Relationships matter first and always. And they’re at the center of everything we do. Our intention is to earn your trust, and keep it, throughout the entire homebuying process. And our “Relationships First” commitment extends far beyond your home purchase. We’ve built a huge network of real estate professionals and related service providers to ensure that no matter what real estate need arises, you’ve got a friend you can call.

Did you know that there is absolutely no cost to you for working with the Avenue Property Group to buy or invest in real estate? In the real estate industry, it’s common for sellers to pay a commission to both their own listing agent and the buyer’s agent. The commission is typically a percentage of the final sale price. In this case, the Avenue Property Group acts as your buyer’s agent, and our fees are paid from the seller’s side of the transaction.

Our extensive real estate sales experience over the span of 20 years and in every conceivable kind of market mixed with the ability to detach ourselves from the emotional aspects of a transaction ensures that we have the upper hand at every negotiation table. By hiring Avenue Property Group, you’ll have the greatest chance of getting your best deal with the least amount of stress as possible.

Everyone knows that these days, home searches start on the internet. But did you know that when you call the listing agent, that agent has a fiduciary responsibility to look out for THEIR client’s best interests. Which in a nutshell means that the seller is represented, and unless you’re working with a buyer’s agent, you are not.

As your buyer’s agent, we’ll hold your hand through the entire transaction – from loan pre-qualification and approval, to a needs and wants analysis, to touring homes, writing offers, negotiating contracts, inspections, appraisals, surveys, and navigating the closing process. And it’s all designed to give you an experience worth sharing.

Each year, the National Association of Realtors publishes a survey of homebuyers and homesellers and the number one complaint that both have is the lack of communication from their Realtor. We actively strive to keep you regularly updated and well-informed, whether that’s by phone, text or email. And if we don’t have an immediate answer, rest assured, we’ll let you know that we’re working on it and will respond as soon as we have your answer.

When it’s appropriate to offer our professional opinion, you can rely on us to provide it. Beyond just keeping you informed about market conditions and changes, we’re committed to offering candid feedback on specific properties or neighborhoods. Our goal is to empower you with the knowledge you need to make a well-informed final purchase decision.

When you buy a home, it can be very emotional. As your buyer’s agent, a large part of our job is to help you make rational and well thought out decisions rather than those driven by emotion. Of course the final decisions will always be yours, but we will help you weigh the pros and cons, backed with data, so that you can make the best decisions for your needs.

And during negotiations, it’s always best to have an intermediary (a go-between) to present offers, respond to counter-offers, and negotiate repairs. This is typically when deals can fall apart because things get said that can’t be unsaid and one or both parties walk away. Part of our job is have those conversations that accomplish our buyers goals while still keeping the deal on track.

We use class-leading tools and technology to assist with your search and manage your transaction. We automate everything using web based forms and digital signatures so there’s no need to print or scan a single thing. But that’s not to say that that’s the only way that we can do business. For those uncomfortable with a completely digital transaction, we can provide printed documents to read and sign in person. After all, not everyone uses computers in their day to day lives.
