“Paige is an amazingly skilled top Houston realtor. She is thorough, detailed, exact, and highly knowledgeable. She more than exceeded our expectations. Throughout the process, she guided us and gave us excellent advice. Even though we only leased our property, she gave us around the clock attention. Our property was very popular and received an offer almost daily, which made for five times the work. She never rushed us to make a decision and was quite the opposite. She ensured we had all the information for each applicant; she asked questions of the applicant's realtor until we were comfortable. As a result of her, we have great tenants locked in for two years.”
