Frequently Asked Questions

We understand that buying or selling a home can come with many questions. We’ve put together answers to some of the most common inquiries to help guide you through the process with confidence. Explore our FAQs below to get the insights you need, whether you’re a first-time buyer, relocating, or selling your home in the Dallas area.

As of August 17, 2024, Texas real estate law requires you to sign a buyer broker agreement before an agent can show you homes or provide virtual tours. This is part of broader industry changes aimed at increasing transparency and protecting your interests throughout the home-buying process.


At Top Houz Realty Group, we’re dedicated to representing your best interests and providing clear communication from the start. The buyer broker agreement ensures that we can fully focus on finding you the perfect home while protecting both your investment and our commitment to your real estate journey. This agreement solidifies a strong working relationship and allows us to negotiate on your behalf with complete transparency.

Determining the value of a property in Texas involves several key methods. A Comparative Market Analysis (CMA) compares similar recently sold properties to gauge what buyers are willing to pay. Professional appraisals provide an independent assessment, considering the property’s condition, location, and market trends.


Factors like neighborhood amenities, school districts, and economic conditions also play a significant role. While online valuation tools can offer quick estimates, they should complement more thorough evaluations for a well-rounded understanding of a property’s worth.

Pre-qualification and pre-approval are both important steps in the home-buying process, but they serve different purposes. Pre-qualification is typically a quick and informal assessment where a lender evaluates your financial situation based on the information you provide. It gives you a general idea of how much you might be able to borrow but isn’t a guarantee.


On the other hand, pre-approval is a more formal process. It involves a thorough review of your financial documents, credit history, and overall creditworthiness by the lender. This results in a specific loan amount you’re approved for, making you a stronger candidate when making an offer on a home.


At Top Houz, we can help you navigate both processes to ensure you’re well-prepared to find your dream home in Texas!

Yes! Texas offers several first-time homebuyer programs designed to make homeownership more accessible and affordable!


One of the most notable options is the Texas First Time Homebuyer Program, administered by the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA). This program provides various benefits, including down payment assistance, low-interest mortgage loans, and access to mortgage credit certificates that can help reduce your tax burden. The program typically assists those whose household income does not exceed certain limits, which can vary by location.


Texas also offers first-time homebuyer programs through the Texas State Affordable Housing Corporation (TSAHC). If you’re buying your first home, TSAHC provides a range of assistance, including down payment grants and affordable mortgage options tailored for first-time buyers. Their programs are designed to make homeownership more accessible, especially for individuals who may need extra financial support. To see if you qualify, you can take their quick eligibility quiz on the TSAHC website HERE. It’s a great resource to explore as you begin your homebuying journey in Texas.


To get started, it’s essential to check your eligibility for these programs, as criteria can differ. Generally, first-time homebuyers are defined as those who have not owned a home in the past three years. Additionally, prospective buyers will need to complete a homebuyer education course, which can equip you with valuable knowledge about the purchasing process and help you make informed decisions.


At Top Houz, we’re committed to helping you navigate these opportunities. We can provide guidance on the various programs available, assist you in the application process, and ensure you maximize your benefits. For more information, you can explore the TDHCA website at TDHCA First Time Homebuyer Program and check local resources. Let us help you turn your dream of homeownership in Texas into a reality!
