Your Tour Guide: Sheila Cox, Realtor
Not only is Sugar Land my business, it’s where I live and work. This website (and my helpful guides) are a collection of words, photos, and videos that I personally created. I know the area because I’ve lived, worked, and explored it for years.
You can drive through the best Sugar Land neighborhoods with my videos…located on my YouTube channel. These are videos of me driving around the neighborhoods…not just a slideshow of photos. You can see the pools, parks, tennis courts, and what the homes look like from the outside.

How to Buy a Great Home in Sugar Land TX
First things first. Please read the very important Texas Real Estate Commission’s Information About Brokerage Services.
Know What You Are Doing
Get started with top-secret (not really ;-D) information that most home buyers do not know:
- The Agent Showing You Houses May Not Be Your Agent
- How to Price a Home Correctly
- Do I Need A Real Estate Agent? Maybe I Can Do This Myself
- Beware of Internet Real Estate Statistics
Know What You Are Buying
There are two things you are buying when you buy a house:
- The Location/neighborhood
- The House
Location – Neighborhood
My website is here to help you narrow down your location by giving you the most detailed information available (in one place!) on the best neighborhoods in Sugar Land. However, there are some things that only a really good, boots-on-the-ground, real estate agent knows. Like which sections of which neighborhoods flooded during Harvey. And which areas are known to have potential foundation trouble. And which areas may soon have a major roadway built in their back yard, or where the fault lines are located in the area. (Yes, there are fault lines in our area.)
So you can start off with a general idea of the neighborhoods that you like, but when I take you on tour as your real estate agent, I will explain the PROs and CONs of each area to you. That way you (hopefully) won’t find out about detrimental things about the area after it’s too late! (I learned this the hard way. Ask me about my experiences with landfills and mushroom farms!)

House
Then, when you find a house that you want to purchase, the first thing I do is a detailed Comparable Price Analysis (CMA) to determine the actual market value for the home. This is to help you get the best price for a home…and not pay too much! The list price on a home may or may not reflect the actual market value of the home…what it will appraise for with your lender.
Then, if we go under contract on the home, I do an in-depth analysis on that specific house to collect all the relevant data on that house and put it into one 18+ page House Report so that you have all the details saved for current and future reference. But more importantly, this is when I double-check for possible hidden defects of a home like:
- Sex offenders…is there one living on the same street?
- Flood zones…is this house high and dry?
- Environmental hazards…is the house close to anything significant?
We’ve all heard that “two heads are better than one.” When you and I work together, we can get you a great home in Sugar Land TX!
