Selling

For many families across Northwest Houston — from Tomball and Magnolia to Montgomery, Cypress, and The Woodlands — home is where the heart is. But sometimes, that heart starts to feel a little crowded. What once felt cozy can suddenly feel cramped: toys overflowing into the living room, teenagers needing privacy, or a spouse taking work calls from the kitchen table. As families grow and routines change, the walls can start to close in. If this sounds familiar, you’re not al

If you’ve been dreaming of wide-open spaces, strong community ties, and easy access to Houston’s job corridors, it’s no wonder Northwest Houston is catching your attention. From the pine-lined streets of Magnolia to the lakeside serenity of Montgomery and the energy of Cypress and The Woodlands, this pocket of Greater Houston blends modern convenience with small-town warmth.

The Federal Reserve cut its benchmark rate by a quarter point in mid-September, the first cut since 2024. For buyers and homeowners in Northwest Houston, the big question is simple: does this mean mortgage rates are headed lower? The answer: not necessarily. Here’s what’s really happening, why mortgage rates sometimes move the opposite direction of the Fed, and what this means for buyers and sellers across Tomball, Magnolia, Montgomery, Cypress, and The Woodlands.

The August 2025 market in Northwest Houston paints a clear picture: demand is strong across all five cities, but conditions vary depending on location. Tomball and Cypress are seeing steady growth, Magnolia and Montgomery offer more inventory (and negotiation opportunities), while The Woodlands remains competitive despite a slight price dip.

Did you know? Cypress ZIP code 77433 was just named the hottest inbound ZIP code in the United States, with more than 3,600 households moving in between January and May 2025—more than any other ZIP in the nation. That kind of national recognition doesn’t just put Cypress on the map—it impacts the entire Northwest Houston housing market.

The Northwest Houston housing market has been shifting this summer. With more homes available, buyers finally have breathing room after years of tight inventory. At the same time, sellers are noticing that pricing strategy and presentation matter more than ever if they want to stand out.

The June 2025 data tells a story of transition. Some areas are cooling faster than others, while others are holding strong despite more homes hitting the market. And while buyers may be getting pickier, well-priced homes are still getting snapped up—especially in areas like Cypress and Tomball.

If you tried to sell a home in 2021 or 2022, chances are you didn’t have to do much. Homes were flying off the market, often with multiple offers, bidding wars, and prices well over asking. But that market is gone. Today’s housing market has changed. Buyers have more choices, and they’re more selective. If your goal is to sell for a strong price — without your listing sitting stale — there’s one strategy that matters more than ever: pricing your home right from the very beg

Retirement is about more than leaving a job. It’s about entering a new chapter of life — one that’s full of possibility, freedom, and the chance to finally prioritise what matters most to you. But with this new chapter often comes an important question: Does your current home still fit your retirement goals? For many, the answer isn’t clear right away. You may love your home, but things change — from your lifestyle to your financial priorities to your physical needs.

If you've been holding your breath waiting for the housing market to stabilise, you're not alone. Many buyers and sellers have paused their plans this year, unsure what the next few months will bring. The good news? Industry experts are starting to agree on a few key forecasts that could bring more balance to the market—and potentially more opportunity for you.

Stop me if this sounds familiar: you’ve seen one article saying buyers are finally gaining ground, but then another headline tells you...

If you've been watching the news or scrolling through social media, you’ve probably come across some pretty intense headlines: “The housing market is about to crash.” “Brace for a repeat of 2008.” And if you're a homeowner, buyer, or seller in the Houston area — especially around Tomball, Cypress, or Spring — it’s completely fair to ask: Is it true? Should I be worried? The short answer? No, the housing market is not about to crash. But it is shifting — and understanding th
