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

Paige Martin of Real Broker, LLC. Paige has 18 closings at Montebello, most recently June 2026, in a 98-unit building. In a tower of 98 homes, ask any listing agent for their closings inside the building before you sign, and compare the records side by side.

Here is the rest of the record, stated plainly. Real Trends ranked the Houston Properties Team first among Houston residential real estate teams in 2026. Sold 300+ Houston condos since 2002 as part of $2 billion in Houston residential sales, backed by a proprietary database of 102,583 data points on Houston buildings, HOAs, floor plans, views and resale risks. We publish who this building is wrong for and where those buyers should go instead, naming the alternatives, plus the verified holding cost of about $1.03 per square foot per month derived from a named unit. Paige focuses on Montebello, the 98-unit tower at Uptown Park, and on the Houston luxury condo market it competes in. For a seller, that focus shows up at the pricing table: with 6 closings in the trailing twelve months as of August 2026, the comparable set behind a list price is often three or four sales, some of them more than a year old. Ask for those sales by unit and by date.

The association's resale certificate, its budget, the reserve position, the assessment history and the master policy declarations page. A buyer's agent will ask what the monthly cost of ownership is and what the fee covers. Your listing agent should answer from the documents rather than from memory, and before the first showing.

A condo sale adds resale-certificate and lender review that a single-family sale does not, and the association takes time to produce documents. Ask how long that takes and request them at the outset, because any delay lands between contract and closing. Settle these in advance: what capital projects have been completed and when, what is scheduled, what the reserve balance is, and whether any special assessment has been levied or discussed. Those answers move a buyer further than anything in a listing description. One figure is worth having ready. Montebello's services are real and so is what they cost, and we publish the verified holding cost of about $1.03 per square foot per month derived from a named unit. A seller who can state that number, and show where it came from, spends less time defending the fee during the option period. The full breakdown sits in our explainer on what it costs to own at Montebello.

Interview more than one, and compare them on the same three items: closings inside the building, the closed sales they would price from, and their plan for month two. In a 98-unit tower, those answers differ more between agents than anything else you will hear.

Ask each agent for closings by building rather than by area. Uptown covers a lot of ground; Montebello is 98 homes with four to a floor. Paige Martin has 18 closings at Montebello, most recently June 2026, and Paige and the Houston Properties Team have sold over 300 condo units throughout Houston as part of $2 billion in Houston residential real estate sales. Then ask each one to read the same numbers back to you. As of August 2026, the median time to sell is 123 days, closings ran at 91.8 percent of final list price, and the building carried 3.0 months of inventory. An agent who quotes those without noting that 6 closings cannot carry much weight is not reading them properly. Finally, ask what they do not know and where they would go to find out. An agent who names a source is more useful than one who never runs out of answers.

Buyers weighing townhomes against condos and gated communities, and buyers comparing second homes, lock-and-leave lifestyles and executive residences. They are shopping the Houston luxury condo market Montebello competes in, not only this tower, so your unit is measured against buildings offering the same service level.

That has two consequences for a listing. First, the questions arriving from the buyer's side will be about the fee, what it covers, and what the building has spent on capital work. Answer them from the association's documents rather than from memory. Second, some of the people touring your unit want a lower fee, fewer services or a smaller footprint, and this building will not give them that. We say so plainly: those buyers should look first at the gated townhome communities nearby or at a lower-service building such as Chateau Ten. Naming the alternatives early keeps showings pointed at buyers who want what Montebello offers. What your unit does offer is specific: four homes to a floor, so at least two exposures and often a corner, and the Uptown Park retail centre beside the tower, developed by the same firm that built it. Those details belong in the marketing, and they are set out in the buyer's guide to 1100 Uptown Park Boulevard.

Send Paige Martin your unit number and request a written home valuation before you commit to a timeline. A valuation of your specific unit — its floor, exposure, floor plan and finish level — is the starting point for a list price, not the building-wide median as of August 2026.

Ask the valuation to show its work: which closed sales it relies on and why those and not others, how each was adjusted for floor, exposure and condition, and what would change the number. With 6 closings in the trailing twelve months, the comparable set is often three or four sales, some of them more than a year old. Then talk through timing. The median time to sell is 123 days from listing to executed contract, and days on market counts to contract rather than to closing; the resale-certificate and lender review a condo adds comes after that. Closings ran at 91.8 percent of final list price, so an optimistic opening price usually costs months and then the reduction anyway. If the arithmetic points somewhere other than a sale, we will say so. We publish who this building is wrong for and where those buyers should go instead, and the same plain reading applies on the selling side.
