Seller Representation
Peaches positions Houston-area homes with pricing intelligence, polished presentation, and a launch plan built for qualified attention.
Seller Strategy
Selling a Houston-area home with Nancy "Peaches" Brown starts with a comparative market analysis (CMA) of recent sales in your specific Kingwood, Humble, Atascocita, or Lake Houston neighborhood. A total commission in the 5–6% range is typical and negotiable since the 2024 NAR settlement, and Texas law requires disclosing known issues such as prior flooding on the Seller's Disclosure Notice. Accurate pricing and targeted cosmetic updates usually drive the strongest return.
Buyers notice the details. Peaches helps sellers understand what to improve, what to leave alone, how to price with confidence, and how to create a launch that feels elevated rather than rushed.

Common Questions
Your home's value depends on its neighborhood and village, condition, lot, school zoning, and flood-zone designation — waterfront and golf-course homes on Lake Houston or in Kings Lake Estates command a premium. The most reliable first step is a comparative market analysis (CMA) of recent sales pulled from HAR, which Peaches prepares for your specific address.
A total real-estate commission in the Houston market traditionally runs about 5–6% of the sale price, split between the listing and buyer's agents. Since the 2024 NAR settlement those fees are negotiable, and sellers should also budget for preparation, photography, and closing costs. Peaches outlines the full picture before you list.
Texas requires sellers to complete a Seller's Disclosure Notice covering known conditions, including prior flooding, foundation work, and major repairs. Being upfront — and documenting completed repairs — builds buyer confidence and reduces the risk of a deal falling apart later.
Spring and early summer typically bring the most buyer activity in the Houston area, but the right time depends on your home, price band, and goals. Well-priced, well-prepared homes sell year-round; Peaches helps you weigh timing against current inventory and demand in your neighborhood.
In most Houston-area homes, cosmetic updates — fresh paint, flooring, and lighting — return more than major renovations. If your home has any flood history, repair documentation matters more to buyers than upgrades. Peaches advises which improvements move the needle in your specific village and price range.
Before You List
Before suggesting a price, a listing agent studies recent comparable sales in your specific village or neighborhood, then weighs your home's condition, lot, and any flood history against what buyers are actually paying nearby. That comparative market analysis (CMA) — not a round-number guess — guides pricing, along with a plan for preparation, photography, and disclosures. Texas requires a Seller's Disclosure Notice, so documenting known issues early helps keep the sale on track.
