Buy Before You Sell: A Compass Partner Service for Eligible Compass Clients

Found the home you love but still need to sell your current one?

Through Compass partner service OriginPoint, eligible clients may have access to a Buy Before You Sell option designed to help homeowners move forward with more confidence — without always having to wait for their current home to sell first.

This program may help qualified buyers:

✨ Purchase their next home before selling their current one
✨ Exclude current mortgage payments when qualifying, when eligible
✨ Use a bridge loan or HELOC toward the down payment
✨ Create a smoother transition between homes
✨ Reduce the pressure of selling and buying on the exact same timeline

Basic program highlights may include:

• Current residence typically needs 20%+ equity
• Seller may sign a letter of intent to list the current home within 90 days of closing on the new home
• Buyer must meet reserve and lending requirements
• Program eligibility, terms, and approval are determined by the lending partner

At Altura Realty Group at Compass, we help clients evaluate not just the home — but the full strategy behind the move.

Whether you are upsizing, downsizing, relocating, or planning your next chapter, we can help you explore options before you list.

Houston market activity remains strong, but buyers are becoming more selective.

Week 27 data from HAR shows:

🏡 New Listings: 3,957 | Up 4.4%
📉 Pending Listings: 1,824 | Down 14.8%
✅ Closings: 2,185 | Up 9.9%
👀 Showings: 38,556 | Up 0.3%
🚪 Open Houses: 6,550 | Down 10.2%

More listings. More closings. Steady showings. Fewer pending contracts.

That combination points to a market where strategy matters — for both buyers and sellers.

Spring, TX 77379 Listing Caption 🏡🌿

Spring living with classic Houston-area charm.

Located in the highly desirable 77379 area of Spring, Texas, this home offers the kind of setting buyers continue to look for: established neighborhoods, mature trees, strong community appeal, and convenient access to major Houston-area corridors.

Spring 77379 is especially attractive for buyers who want a suburban lifestyle with access to Klein ISD, nearby parks, shopping, dining, and commuter routes including Grand Parkway 99, TX-249, and I-45. Klein ISD is headquartered in Spring 77379, and the area is closely tied to the Klein community.

Outdoor amenities are a major draw. Meyer Park, located on Cypresswood Drive in Spring 77379, offers sports fields, trails, playground areas, and open green space, making it a popular local destination for recreation and youth sports.

For buyers looking near northwest Houston, Spring 77379 offers a strong blend of neighborhood convenience, established residential character, and access to everyday amenities near Vintage Park, Grand Parkway Marketplace, and surrounding Spring/Klein corridors.

Relocation Buyer Moving from California to HoustonAnother win for our relocation buyer!

This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home in West Houston (Energy Corridor area) is officially under contract — and our buyers are making the move from California to Texas.

Thinking about moving from California to Houston?

Here’s what relocation buyers ask us most:

Q: Can I buy a home in Houston before I move from out of state?

A: Yes — we handle remote showings via video tour, digital contracts, and closing coordination so you can go under contract from anywhere.

Q: What does a Houston relocation specialist do?

A: We match you to neighborhoods based on commute, schools, and lifestyle, then manage the entire purchase remotely.

Christine McCarthy has personally completed 10 international relocations, so we know the moving process from both sides.

Altura Realty Group at Compass serves relocation buyers moving to Houston, River Oaks, Memorial, West University, Bellaire, Montrose, The Woodlands, and Spring.

🇺🇸 Happy Fourth of July from Altura Realty Group at Compass! 🇺🇸.
On July 4, 1776, our founders signed the Declaration of Independence and declared that life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness belong to us all. Nearly 250 years later, that promise still lives in the everyday moments — flags on front porches, kids chasing sparklers in the backyard, neighbors gathered around the grill, and fireworks lighting up the Texas sky.
To us, the Fourth of July has always meant one thing above all: home. Independence gave us the freedom to build a life — and there’s no greater expression of that freedom than owning the home where your family’s story unfolds.
From our family to yours across Spring, Tomball, Creekside Park, The Woodlands, and the greater Houston area — we wish you a safe and joyful Independence Day filled with gratitude for the people beside you and the country around you. 🎆
Thinking about buying or selling a home in Spring, Tomball, Creekside, or The Woodlands? Whether you’re searching for your first home, your forever home, or preparing to sell, Altura Realty Group at Compass knows these neighborhoods inside and out — and we’re here to guide you every step of the way.
