The Woodlands Real Estate Agents

Steve Callander Certified Home Marketing Specialist, Accredited Luxury Home Specialist, Certified Distressed Property Expert "Smooth and enjoyable" aren't generally the adjectives you expect to hear when someone describes their latest real estate transaction. Unless Steve Callander is your agent. Over the past 13-plus years, he's seen his share of challenging transactions challenges that Steve has not only embraced but also conquered. In fact, when you tell him something can't be done whether it's successfully navigating a complicated short sale with both IRS and HOA debt or closing deals after just a day on the market be prepared to watch him prove you wrong. Since earning his real estate license in 2007 and joining the RE/MAX family in 2009, Steve hasn't stopped buying and selling commercial and residential real estate or going above and beyond for each client. His reputation for service has even earned the trust and business of Woodforest National Bank, where he's handled their foreclosure listings since 2010. Today, Steve is proud to work with RE/MAX The Woodlands & Spring, providing clients with his expert market knowledge, top-notch negotiating skills, and unparalleled commitment to customer service. But don't let his reputation intimidate you. Whether you're buying a small starter home or investing in a million-dollar property, Steve provides the same high level of services. Not only does he focus on building client relationships, but he also develops collaborative partnerships with the other agents and brokerages with whom he works ensuring he always gets the job done. But to Steve, being an agent is about more than just getting clients the best deal possible and bringing a sale to the closing table. It's about providing market reports. Negotiating repairs and offers. Building a relationship that lasts long after the ink has dried on a contract. But ultimately, it's about putting a client's best interests first
