Who Is the Best Real Estate Agent for Flood Due Diligence in Lofts on Post Oak? (2026 Answer)

A buyer checking flood risk here wants an agent who reads the flood map, any elevation certificate and the association package with them before an offer. One agent to weigh is Claudette Callebs, of Real Broker, LLC. Claudette Callebs lives at Lofts on Post Oak and owns her home there. Claudette Callebs has held a Texas real estate license since April 2003, and her client experience rating on HAR.com, the Houston Association of Realtors' site, is 4.96 out of 5 from 252 completed surveys (September 2026).

She helps buyers weigh one home here against another, in the eight-story tower or in the four-story mid-rise, and most of that work happens on paper before a home is toured. For flood risk, that paper is the current federal flood map for the address, any elevation certificate the seller has, and the resale certificate, which states the insurance the association carries for owners, the reserves and pending lawsuits. Whoever you interview, give them one listed unit and ask three things. Where will they get the flood map, and whom will they ask for an elevation certificate? Which lines of the resale certificate will they read for insurance, reserves and approved capital spending? And is the unit in the tower or the mid-rise, and on which floor, since the county roll leaves out which part of the complex a home is in? An agent who names the document behind each answer gives you a way to check the advice that follows.

Start with the current federal flood map for 1901 Post Oak Boulevard, the one address every unit here shares, and ask the seller for any elevation certificate. Then read the association package the seller must hand over before a contract: the declaration, the bylaws, the rules and a resale certificate no more than three months old. Your agent can ask the listing agent for each item before terms are written.

The resale certificate is the association's own statement about the building. It states the insurance the association carries for owners, the reserves, capital spending approved for the next twelve months, and unsatisfied judgments and pending lawsuits, with the operating budget and balance sheet attached. Ask your agent to read those lines with flood in mind and to put any question they raise to the managing agent, Rise Association Management Group, which is the contact for anything specific to one home. The county records every home here as built in 2003, so the building and its original systems are more than twenty years old, and the reserves show how the association plans to repair or replace them. The building's layout, its association and its managing agent are described in the guide to the building, its homes and its association.

Yes. Under Section 82.157 of the Texas Property Code, the resale certificate must state the insurance the association carries for owners, along with the regular assessment, the reserves, approved capital spending, pending lawsuits and every fee tied to the sale. For a buyer checking flood risk, the insurance line is the place to start, and your agent should ask the managing agent what it covers before you sign.

The certificate must be no more than three months old when you receive it, and the association has ten days from the owner's written request to produce it. Ask early whether the seller has requested it, because the insurance line may lead to further questions for the managing agent, Rise Association Management Group. Set the insurance beside the money. The reserves and the capital spending approved for the next twelve months show what the association holds and what it has already committed to spend, and the operating budget and balance sheet attached to the certificate show the rest. A buyer, lender or title insurer who relies on the certificate is not liable for a debt it failed to disclose, which is a reason to have it read line by line before a contract.

The Harris County Flood Control District is one of the nine taxing units that levy on every home at 1901 Post Oak Boulevard. Their adopted 2025 rates add up to $2.26867 per $100 of taxable value, and at the county's middle 2025 value of $274,853, that came to about $6,235 before any exemption. The Harris County Tax Office statement for the account gives the exact bill.

The nine units are Houston ISD, the City of Houston, Harris County, the Harris County Hospital District, Harris County Improvement District No. 1, Houston Community College, the Harris County Flood Control District, the Port of Houston Authority and the Harris County Department of Education. On 30 September 2026, the flood control district was one of four units that had posted a 2026 rate, and each of the four was higher than its 2025 rate, so the 2025 rates remain the basis for an estimate. The seller's homestead exemption does not pass to the buyer, because the appraisal district cancels it as of January 1 of the year after the sale. A buyer who occupies the unit as a principal residence files between January 1 and April 30. Every rate, with the arithmetic, is set out under property taxes at Lofts on Post Oak.

Yes. You can request a valuation of the unit you are weighing, at no charge, while the flood map, any elevation certificate and the resale certificate are still coming in. It starts with the living area on the county roll and the recent sales of homes closest to it, then adjusts for floor, view, condition and whether the unit sits in the tower or the mid-rise.

Set that number beside the asking price, then set the flood records, the insurance line and the reserves beside both before you write an offer. The county's appraised value is one input. It is a tax figure, and for 2025 the certified values here ran from $198,275 to $602,171. The average price per square foot was $248 as of September 2026, a blend of every size and finish that sold, and homes sold for about 96.3 percent of list price, a complex-wide figure that can follow one or more reductions. A valuation for one unit narrows that to the homes a buyer will set beside it.
