“Amy Patton assisted our church in the sale of our parsonage. In our initial meetings, she came across as a "Professional." We had contacted another Realtor at a very successful brokerage, but that person was, it seemed, a bit too successful, in that she set up an appointment, but failed to show, with no communication as to why, both before and after. Communication is the key, and that particular agent failed miserably. Amy Patton, throughout the entire process, never failed to communicate, responding to questions, situations, and, in general, shepherding our flock through the process flawlessly. There were a couple of hiccups that she took in stride, responded to and kept those who needed to know in the loop, As for other aspects of the sale, pricing, negotiations, clientele, etc., Amy was nearly impeccable, which was to be expected from an agent of her abilities and knowledge. It would be impossible to find a better Realtor to serve our needs.”

Independence Heights real estate Market Report.
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Independence Heights real estate market, updated for April 2026. *
Year-over-year, Independence Heights has seen typical home values dip by 5.63 percent to about $335,490, a slightly steeper decline than Houston overall at $341,000 and down 3.94 percent. At the same time, median days on market have surged 78.1 percent compared with last year, landing at 93.5 days and signaling that homes are generally taking much longer to sell.
In February 2026, sellers listed homes at a median price of about $429,900, while buyers faced an inventory of 144 homes and 112 new listings. Only about 10.2 percent of recent sales closed above the list price and the average sale-to-list ratio hovered near 0.96, suggesting some room for negotiation despite the area still being labeled a seller's market with a market gauge of 25.
Looking ahead to March 2026, typical home value is projected to edge up slightly to about $335,612 and the projected median list price is expected to move toward $439,855. Inventory is forecast to hold roughly steady at 143 homes, indicating only a minor change in options for buyers and selling conditions for owners. In this evolving environment, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help connecting with an experienced local agent who understands these trends and numbers.
Market gauge is calculated based on the the number of active listings divided by home sales over the most recently available reporting period.

“Mrs Dibble was very professional and proficient. She was also very good at explaining the process. She is a great problem solver. And pleasant to work with. I thanked the person who recommended her to me. Sincerely, Cynthia Muhammad”
“As a first time buyer, the process to buy a home can be very intimidating and at times overwhelming. However, Sinai and her team made the process as easy and as manageable as possible with reminders and due dates along the way so you always know what's coming up next. With Sinai's help I was able to find a place that I am so happy with. My only regret is not doing this sooner!”
“Kelly is a person that has lots of energy and is a go getter! She was very flexible and was not shy in pointing out things that may be a problem or things we should really be looking for in a home. Even now after our purchase is complete, we are still in communications to talk about next steps and getting recommendations for local contractors or even restaurants (since we came from out of state). We would highly recommend Kelly to anyone looking to move to the Houston area!”
