The Texas Coastal Properties Family is an awesome group of Realtors that know their business well. I have worked with them for 20+ years and would highly recommend them for any of my rentals or real estate sales.
I have completed (4) real estate transactions using realtors at Texas Coastal Properties and have found everyone to be professional, knowledgeable and very thorough, I highly recommend this team.
Just wanted to say that Ron and Nikki are amazing. Top notch service. House was great with a wonderful view... Will b back
Ron is awesome broker and our realtor is fun and informative. They both went above and beyond for us
Poor service and poor response. Would never recommend this office to anyone. Two weeks to get a response on market update and pricing and 6 days to terminate after sent to them, A week after termination and still have their own listing up. Much better realtors in the area
