Common Questions
Answers to what buyers ask most.
Have a question that isn't here? Claudette is always happy to talk through your specific situation.
Not necessarily before our first conversation, but I recommend getting pre-approved before touring homes seriously. It strengthens your offer and helps focus your search on homes genuinely within reach.
It varies. Some buyers find the right home within weeks; others take several months. The closing process typically takes 30–45 days once under contract. Claudette will help you understand what to expect based on your situation.
In most cases, the seller covers the buyer's agent commission — so Claudette's services come at no direct cost to you. She'll walk you through how this works clearly at your first meeting.
Absolutely. Houston is large and diverse, and neighborhood fit matters enormously. Claudette will take the time to understand your lifestyle, commute needs, and priorities, and help you identify areas that genuinely match.
