Methodology and Sources

How Global Collective Research presents information.

  • Data sources: Official district/county/FEMA links, Texas REALTORS® public FAQs, title/lender process norms, and on-page citations when used.
  • Update cadence: Priority answer pages carry a visible last-reviewed date; hubs refresh when guides change.
  • Geographic definitions: The Woodlands and nearby North Houston communities as named on each guide — not a proprietary “market score.”
  • Sample selection: We do not invent survey samples or “2,000-sale” studies. Calculators use disclosed illustrative inputs.
  • Limitations: General education only — not legal, tax, lending, or immigration advice.
  • Editorial review: Licensed brokerage review by Suzie Castillo, Founder & Broker (CIPS; HAR/NAR/AMPI), where bylined.
  • Corrections: Email Broker@globalcollectivere.com with URL + correction request.
