Real Estate Why Choose The McCrory Team? What Can We Do For You? Experience: Susan has been a REALTOR® since 1985, and Thomas has been a REALTOR® since 1991.
The McCrory Team realizes that assisting clients with the purchase or sale of one of their largest financial assets requires strong representation coupled with the ability to provide a smooth transaction. Their success is a direct result of a desire to put service and the needs of their clients first in order to help them achieve their real estate goals. The McCrory Team's objective is to provide
a highly personal approach along with aggressive marketing and negotiating strategies to create excellent representation for both buyers and sellers. Their 40 years of combined experience supplies a valuable ability to understand the market and provide insight into things such as the history of neighborhoods, builders' typical practices, and how to work with relocation companies to their clients' best advantage, for example. Through the years the mother and son team have earned the loyal support of satisfied clients who form the core of a strong referral network. As a result of their success, they have been recognized through the years with office and company awards and recognition by D Magazine as "A Best Residential Real Estate Agent." The team serves a wide ranging area of the Metroplex and works comfortably with both pre-owned homes and new construction. We have sold over $160,000,000 in volume and have negotiated countless contracts - for both pre-owned homes and new construction. We have been on the Ebby Halliday Relocation Team for listings and buyers and have participated in most of the major company relocations throughout the Metroplex. We work with all relocation companies and understand their special forms and requirements. We have worked with bank foreclosures through the years on both sides of the transaction. Knowledge: We take 15 hours of continuing education every other year. This includes updates in legal topics and ethics. This enables us to stay current with recent changes in real estate laws to better represent clients. We also take a minimum of 6 hours of education through the Ebby Halliday, Realtors Training Program. This includes courses on Appraisal Guidelines, Effectively Representing Diverse Cultures, Technology Updates and much more. In addition, the Frisco Office provides monthly "Lunch and Learn" sessions that give mini seminars on timely topics for Realtors. Susan and Thomas both hold the Certified Residential Specialist Designation (CRS), a designation held by only 4% of the nation's real estate agents, and they belong to the Council of Residential Specialists. This designation indicates an extra level of experience, commitment and knowledge which will be an advantage for buyers and sellers. The McCrory Team also holds the Accredited Buyer Representative (ABR) designation, and a membership in Real Estate Buyer's Agent Council. Both of these designations are conferred by the National Association of Realtors and have production and education requirements to acquire. The Council provides constant industry information about trends, new technology, marketing techniques and related topics to keep CRS and ABR designees at the top of the real estate community. Commitment to Service and Integrity: The McCrory Team believes strongly in personal service and integrity. While we have the help of an assistant who manages our office, you are never "turned over" to an assistant once you contact us. You will be speaking directly with one of us when you call with a question or request. We will be the ones to show you homes, help you establish a list price, follow up on your transaction with the lender and title company as well as oversee numerous other facets of the purchase or sale. As a team, we work together to provide an even higher level of service than a single agent, and many times, even a large group can achieve. If one of us is unavailable, you can quickly reach the other and always be assured of talking to the agent you hired to represent you. "Selling Fine Homes Is a Family Tradition" is not just our motto; it is part of our philosophy. We treat every family or client we work with like a member of our family and provide exceptional personal service to each and every one. Results: We know that not everyone has the exact same real estate goals, but we also recognize that no matter what the goal is, every client wants to reach their goal with the greatest success and the least difficulty. We are results driven and achieve success for our clients by listening to them carefully, focusing on their needs, employing cutting-edge technology,
utilizing dynamic specialized marketing techniques, maintaining a determined never quit attitude, and using negotiating skills practiced for decades and designed to achieve our clients' goals. That's why...

One of the most overlooked ways to protect and grow your home's value isn't upgrades; it's community. The relationships you build with neighbors can influence everything from safety to pride of ownership and even future resale appeal. If you'd like ideas on how to stay connected and informed about what's happening in your neighborhood or you're considering a move into one that fits your lifestyle, I'd be happy to help.

Many homeowners consider renting their home instead of selling, especially if they have strong equity or a favorable mortgage rate. In some situations, keeping the property as a rental can create long-term wealth and additional income, but it's important to understand the responsibilities, costs, tenant screening, insurance requirements, and local regulations before making the decision. A rental property should be approached like a business investment, not just a backup plan. If you've been wondering whether renting your home could make sense for your situation, let's talk through the pros, cons, and options available to you.
A more comfortable home doesn’t always come from big renovations or expensive redesigns.
Often, it’s the small, thoughtful upgrades that quietly improve how a space feels and functions every day.

Most buyers start with price, but affordability is really about the monthly payment. Your budget depends on your income, debts, interest rate, taxes, and insurance. Two buyers can afford very different homes at the same price point.The key is understanding what monthly payment feels comfortable for you, not just what you qualify for. With today's rates, small changes can make a big difference in affordability.Before you start home shopping, let's map out a realistic range and connect you with a trusted lender who can break down your options. A quick conversation now can save you time and help you buy with confidence.

A cohesive color scheme helps tie a space together by creating visual consistency across furniture, decor, and finishes.
1. Stick to 2–3 main colors and repeat them throughout the space.
2. If you use a strong color, balance it with calmer tones around it. Neutrals give the eye a place to rest and keep the overall look grounded.
3. Use the same colors across walls, textiles, art, and décor. Repeating them in different materials creates a more intentional look.

Many sellers automatically think a price reduction is the only way to attract buyers, but concessions can sometimes be a smarter solution. According to Redfin, there are currently more sellers than buyers in many markets, increasing competition among listings. Zillow reports that nearly two-thirds of sellers in 2025 paid some or all of the buyer's closing costs to help facilitate a sale.Concessions can take many forms, including paying closing costs, funding temporary or permanent interest rate buydowns, or addressing repairs buyers may be concerned about. These strategies can improve affordability and make a home more attractive without dramatically changing the asking price.If your home isn't getting the activity you expected, let's discuss whether a strategic concession might be the key to getting it sold.
