I hope you love your new home! As a new resident of the H-Town area, you may be interested in my information on where to look for furniture and more.
Furniture
If you head north on Fondren from I-59, you will find a lot of different furniture stores. I call this section, up to Westheimer, “Furniture Row.” You will also find rug, fabric, and lighting stores in that area.
There is also a Star Furniture nearby (see map below) which IMHO has the best quality-for-the-price furniture around. There is also a Star Furniture Clearance Outlet where you may get a great deal.
If you like modern/contemporary furniture, then check out Cantoni.
And don’t forget the iconic GALLERY FURNITURE in Houston, which is an awesome furniture buying experience and they can usually deliver on the same day! (Read about owner “Mattress Mack” who is a Houston icon.)
APPLIANCES
I have purchased several appliances (refrigerators, ovens, TVs) online at ABT Electronics. They have different levels of delivery service, depending on what you need. Watch out for large refrigerators and getting them through your door! I had to have a handyman remove my door in order to get my last refrigerator inside, and it’s just a regular refrigerator.
There are also Appliance Outlets all over Houston, just check around on Google Maps.
HOME DECOR
I like to make home decor collections on Amazon (helps with staging). Sometimes you can mix and match, like yellow and gray, or navy and gold:
I also help people with “budget decorating” where you can make your home look great using inexpensive touches and items you already have. You can see a few examples of how I transform homes from my Staging Samples page. Just contact me for help.

REALTORS DON’T “JUST” SELL HOUSES Real estate agents don’t “just” sell houses; we sell a SERVICE to effectively guide home buyers and sellers through the entire real estate transaction, which usually takes several months. We are more like real estate consultants than we are salespeople. That’s probably why 88 percent of all home buyers and sellers choose to hire a real estate agent when buying or selling a home! Buying or selling a home is not like buying or selling a TV, a computer, or a car. You can’t buy/sell a home on the Internet with a couple of clicks. There are MANY legal aspects, deadlines, and requirements that most people are not trained to handle. What’s more…mistakes along the way can cost you thousands and even hundreds of thousands of dollars. The financial risk is much greater than just about anything else you may buy.
