We're on your side 
Unless it is clearly indicated, Alice Donahue Real Estate does not represent the owner or seller of these properties, we represent you.

The real estate agency that represents the seller must by law put the seller's interests above yours in the transaction.

This is so important that Texas State Law now requires that you be informed of that fact. Click here to see the Texas Information About Brokerage Services.

Now here is the best part, our services as your buyer's agent cost you nothing, that's right, absolutely zero! Our compensation comes entirely from the seller, which typically means the seller's agent splits their commission with us.

The bottom line is you are represented with experienced experts in the real estate transaction at no cost to you and that can only put you ahead, not just in potential savings, but in every phase of the transaction and even after the sale.

More and more buyers today are becoming aware of these facts and are using buyer's agents. You wouldn't go to court with the prosecuting attorney as your lawyer, and likewise, you shouldn't go into one of your most important and cherished investments without an expert in real estate on your side.

We do this everyday and that's why we have become one of the Texas Gulf Coast's most popular real estate brokers.

  13. What are the rules with respect to pets, flags, outside Antennas, satellite dishes, clotheslines, fences, Patios, parking and home businesses?
  14. Are board meetings open to all residents?

Special issues to consider
  • Newly developed communities: Determine not only when but also how the Developer plans to transition control of the Community to homeowners.
  • Resale: Consult a community association manager or Association officer to determine if there are Unresolved issues pertaining to that property, Delinquent assessments or unapproved Architectural changes, for example.
  • Buying to rent: Examine the cc&rs with respect To regulations affecting rentals. Remember, it will be your Responsibility to educate your Renters and ensure they abide By the association’s rules.
  • Condominium conversions: You need to be especially diligent To make sure you know exactly what You’re buying. Appearances can be Misleading. Old buildings are old buildings. A snappy, refurbished lobby does not Necessarily mean that the heating system, elevators And roof aren’t due for expensive overhauls.
