FAQ
Get pre-approved before you fall in love with a house. In the Katy market, well-priced homes in communities like Cinco Ranch, Elyson, and Sunterra move fast — and if you are not ready to write an offer the day you walk in, you will lose it to someone who is. Beyond that, my biggest piece of advice is this: if you are buying new construction, bring your own agent. The builder's representative at the sales office works for the builder, not for you. Having your own representation costs you nothing extra and gives you an experienced negotiator in your corner from contract to close. I have helped over 70 first-time buyers purchase homes across the Katy area, and the ones who came in prepared — pre-approved, clear on their priorities, and working with someone who knows the neighborhoods — had a significantly better experience than those who didn't.
Price it right from day one. The biggest mistake I see sellers make is starting too high and chasing the market down — every price reduction signals weakness to buyers and costs you money in the long run. My team averages 24 days on market compared to Houston's average of 60, and a 98.9% list-to-sale ratio that puts roughly 3% more in my sellers' pockets compared to the market norm. That does not happen by accident — it happens because we price strategically, prepare the home properly before it hits the market, and execute a marketing plan that generates real competition among buyers. The second piece of advice: if your home did not sell with a previous agent, do not just relist it the same way and expect a different result. There is always a reason a home does not sell. My team holds a 98% success rate on expired and terminated listings across the Katy area because we find that reason and fix it before we ever put the sign back in the yard.
Across eight years in the Katy, TX market I have worked with just about every type of client there is. First-time buyers purchasing their first home in communities like Ventana Lakes, Morton Creek Ranch, and Freeman Ranch. Move-up sellers leaving Jasmine Heights or North Katy for something larger in Cinco Ranch or Seven Meadows. Investors buying second and third properties — I have helped over 25 clients make that transition from homeowner to real estate investor. Relocation clients coming into the Katy area for the first time who needed someone who genuinely knows every community and zip code. And expired listing clients — homeowners whose homes did not sell with a previous agent — where my team holds a 98% success rate. If I had to describe my typical client, it would be someone who wants straight answers, real data, and an agent who has actually done the work to know this market at a level most agents don't.
One that stands out is a seller in the Katy area who came to me after their home had been listed with another agent for over 90 days without a single offer. They were frustrated, questioning whether the market had passed them by, and honestly not sure they trusted agents anymore. We sat down, went through the data together, identified exactly what had gone wrong — a combination of overpricing and minimal marketing exposure — and relisted with a corrected strategy. The home went under contract in under 30 days and closed at a price the seller was genuinely happy with. What I value most about that transaction is not the result itself — it is the moment the seller realized that the first experience was not their fault and that the right approach produces a completely different outcome. That is what a 98% expired listing success rate looks like in practice.
I came into real estate from a background in business and marketing, which shaped how I approached it from the beginning — as a business, not a hobby. I was drawn to the Katy market specifically because of how much it was growing and how much opportunity existed for someone willing to put in the systems and the work. What I did not want to do was become one of the thousands of agents who get licensed, close a few deals on relationships, and then plateau. So from early on I invested heavily in professional development — hiring a business coach, attending national trainings, learning from the best operators in the industry. Eight years later, Contreras Properties Group is consistently ranked in the top 5% of agents across the Houston metropolitan area with an all-5-star review record and hundreds of closed transactions across the Katy area. The business background turned out to matter a lot.
Yes — and this is an area I take seriously. For the past five consecutive years I have worked directly with a Mike Ferry business coach. Mike Ferry is one of the most respected and rigorous coaching organizations in U.S. residential real estate, focused on accountability, process, and performance standards that most agents never encounter. Beyond that, I have attended over a dozen paid seminars, high-focus retreats, and national training events alongside top-producing agents from across the country through organizations including Mike Ferry, Jeff Glover, and Gary Keller. This is not passive continuing education — it is an ongoing commitment to operating at the highest level the industry offers. The practical benefit to my clients is straightforward: better pricing strategy, sharper negotiation, and a process refined over hundreds of transactions that does not treat your home sale or purchase as a learning experience.
