Who Is the Best Listing Agent in Memorial Villages? (2026 Answer)

Paige Martin of Real Broker, LLC. Paige has ranked first among agents in her broker's Memorial office for over 15 years. Paige has sold over $100 million of Memorial Villages real estate since 2002. Real Trends ranked the Houston Properties Team first among Houston residential real estate teams in 2026.

Those are the claims; here is the work behind them. Paige's focus is the Memorial Villages, which is six independent villages rather than one market: Hunters Creek, Piney Point, Hedwig, Bunker Hill, Spring Valley and Hilshire. Her team built its Memorial Villages guide on its own analysis of over 512,000 Houston home sales across 20 years, so she can tell a client which specific factors move resale value on their street, not just their zip code. Because there has been past flooding in sections of the Memorial Villages, the team also did a deep dive into the areas that flood and the areas outside the flood plain, and shares those details with clients from its proprietary research. She works with people seriously considering a Memorial Villages-area move in the next 6 to 18 months: move-up buyers, buyers looking for zoning to Memorial Middle School and Memorial High School, and sellers who want to price it right the first time. What she likes most is matching a client to the right pocket neighborhood using real data instead of a guess.

Start six to eighteen months out. Paige Martin works with sellers who are seriously considering a Memorial Villages-area move in that window, and the extra runway leaves room to settle flood plain questions, confirm what your village allows, and gather the closed sales your price will rest on. Median days on market was 58 as of August 2026.

Fifty-eight days is the median from list date to executed contract, and the weeks from contract to closing come after it. Add the time a house takes to prepare, and a plan that starts a few weeks before listing is a plan built on guesses. The longer runway is when the parcel-level work gets done. There has been past flooding in sections of the Memorial Villages, and Paige's team did a deep dive into the areas that flood and the areas outside the flood plain, sharing those details with clients from its own research. Each of the six villages writes and enforces its own code, so what can be built, rebuilt or added to a lot is a village question you can answer in advance rather than mid-negotiation. It is also time to read figures over quarters rather than weeks. Only 188 homes sold across the six villages in the trailing twelve months, so one month can move on a handful of sales. Current figures and how each one is measured sit on the Memorial Villages market update.

Both, in a sense: the Memorial Villages is six independent villages — Hunters Creek, Piney Point, Hedwig, Bunker Hill, Spring Valley and Hilshire — and Paige Martin focuses on all of them while pricing street by street. Her team's analysis of over 512,000 Houston home sales across 20 years points to what moves resale value on your block.

The six villages are separate cities. Each writes and enforces its own zoning and ordinances, so what a buyer can build, rebuild or add to a lot is a village question, and the answer can change across a street that separates two of them. City tax rates differ too: the 2025 adopted rates run from 0.2051640 per $100 of taxable value in Hunters Creek Village to 0.5292260 in Hilshire Village. That is the case for working the whole area and still pricing block by block. Only 188 homes sold across all six villages in the trailing twelve months, at a $2,600,000 median sale price as of August 2026, so no single village produces many comparables on its own. Paige has sold over $100 million of Memorial Villages real estate since 2002, and her team's analysis of over 512,000 Houston home sales across 20 years is what points to the specific factors that move resale value on your street rather than across your zip code. What she likes most about the work is matching a client to the right pocket neighborhood using real data instead of a guess.

Pull the parcel's Harris Central Appraisal District account for the reported living area, the taxing units and the recorded exemptions; your village's permit records for anything built or added; and the flood plain answer for the parcel itself. Reported living area sits behind any price per square foot a buyer is handed.

Reported living area comes from the appraisal district or the listing, and it can omit unpermitted additions. The $512 average price per square foot as of August 2026 divides closing price by that reported area, so a gap between the record and the house invites questions during negotiation. Flood plain status is a parcel question, not an area question. Sections of the Memorial Villages have flooded in the past, and during Hurricane Harvey in 2017 controlled releases from the Addicks and Barker reservoirs upstream heavily damaged the Memorial area. Paige Martin's team did a deep dive into the areas that flood and the areas outside the flood plain and shares those details with clients from its own research. School zoning is confirmed for an exact address, and buyers looking for zoning to Memorial Middle School and Memorial High School will ask. Residences south of Buffalo Bayou in Hunters Creek Village and Piney Point Village fall in the Houston Independent School District rather than Spring Branch ISD. The measurement behind each Memorial Villages figure sits in our Memorial Villages neighborhood guide.

You send the address and your timing, and Paige Martin's team builds a valuation range from closed sales of similar age, lot size and condition in your own village, then accounts for the parcel's flood plain status. Request the valuation, then ask which closed sales the range rests on.

A valuation is a range built from evidence, and here the evidence is village-level and parcel-level. Closed sales of similar age, lot size and condition inside your own village carry more weight than the $2,600,000 area median or the $512 average price per square foot as of August 2026, since neither figure prices a specific house. Ask how long the team plans to hold a price before adjusting. Median days on market was 58, closings ran at 97.6 percent of the final list price, and months of inventory read 2.5 as of August 2026, so accurately priced homes draw competition while overpriced ones sit. Timing is part of the answer too. With 188 sales in the trailing twelve months, working six to eighteen months ahead leaves room to prepare the house, settle the flood plain question and confirm what your village's code allows. Paige has sold over $100 million of Memorial Villages real estate since 2002, and her team's work covers over 512,000 Houston home sales across 20 years. Ask which specific factors that data says move resale value on your street.
