Astros Tickets
Give Away!

A referral is the highest form of compliment a client can give. Knowing that we have done a good job and left a positive impression is actually the driving force behind our vision for FIG Real Estate. And it is our honor to also help our client’s family members, friends and co-workers navigate one of life’s most important transactions.

FIG would like to offer our clients a chance to win four Astros tickets (and a Lot B parking pass), located in the FIRST ROW behind the Astros’ dugout.

Simply refer someone you know who is in the market to buy or sell real estate. If FIG closes on a property with your referral, YOU WIN!

So don’t delay… This could be YOU next time you go to a game at Minute Maid Park!Contact us at info@figtx.com and we would be happy to work with you on dates when you win!!!

Don’t Fall For Clickbait!

Here’s What I Think Is Worth Reading:

  • It’s been a slow news cycle outside of the recent storms to Houston. I hope everyone is healthy and safe. If you need anything, anything at all, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
    • And we have great roofers, tree companies, landscapers, etc.
  • Great news for baseball fans… Houston is officially hosting World Baseball Classic games! Dubbed the World Cup of Baseball, this is a great tournament that brings out passion in fans across the planet. I highly recommend everyone go as they are much more lively than Astros games.
  • Also not real estate related but I was very happy to see the Justice Department is suing to break up Live Nation and Ticketmaster. Those guys have been extorting us for years!
  • Articles like this drive me nuts: Should I Rent or Should I Buy? Watch the video but be aware, there are so many wrong assumptions!
  1. You can buy a nice home for $300,000 (or less) in central Houston, it doesn’t have to be $400,000.
    • That would put your expenses at $34,500 per year if you own – which is the same as paying $2,875 per month in rent!
    • PLUS if you owned, you would be getting equity and appreciation vs nothing when you rent.
  2. Buying a home does not require a large down payment. I just closed a client on a $325,000 home with only $10,000 down which is a lot of money but you don’t have to come up with 20%.
  3. “A lot of times, people are renting, and they want to buy, and they feel stuck renting, and that is a frustrating feeling. Simply overreaching and buying something doesn’t take that stuck feeling away,” Mizell explained.
    • I think people feel stuck because they haven’t spoken to a professional about the market, their buying power and/or all the homes that are available to them. There is a lot available!
Remember… this is a starter home so buy the best home you can now and get started. Your dream home is waiting!

And last but not least…

FIG Family Updates

As we mentioned, you’re one of us now. And we love to celebrate all the good news and events that are happening in the lives of the extended FIG Family!Please email info@figtx.com and let us know what’s going on with you!

Mirella Moreira & JV Taucce – In 2021, Mirella and JV moved to Houston from Brazil to work in the oil and gas industry. With the help of FIG, they found their perfect home in the vibrant Washington Corridor. Recently, they welcomed their first child, a precious baby boy named Nico. We couldn’t be happier for this wonderful family and wish them all the best in their new journey!

Katie Brooks – Katie is not only the niece of FIG Broker Michael Flint, but also the daughter of FIG COO Ellen Brooks. She graduated this month from Tufts University in Boston – magna cum laude with dual degrees in Psychology and International Literary & Visual Arts. The family was on hand to see her walk and celebrate despite the cold and rain. Congratulations Katie!
