Independent, entrepreneurial agent Chris Phan has become one of Houston’s best-kept secrets through his diligence, integrity, and unique knowledge of the real estate industry. Chris’ expertise extends far beyond the process of buying or selling a property: He’s the exclusive Realtor® for well-known builders and developers throughout Houston. With Truss Real Estate, Chris uses his rigorous understanding of the market, as well as real estate lending guidelines, products, and cost-effective borrowing to lead a dream team of agents whose talents truly go beyond real estate. Data-driven from a young age, the native Houstonian grew up learning about business from his mother. After managing the family liquor store, selling it at a profit, and creating a thriving career as a foreign exchange market trader at a Houston-based Wall Street firm, he entered the mortgage banking industry at a client’s behest. Since then, he’s utilized his obsession with numbers to win for his clients. During his 14-year tenure as a mortgage banker, Chris was the go-to financing expert for warrantable and non-warrantable condos and the preferred lender for developers such as Randall Davis, Post Properties, and Caspian Homes. Many of their buyers were first-timers, so he soon became a first-time buyer specialist and the preferred lender for a nationwide brokerage, where he trained more than 60 agents. Since then, Chris has built his business almost entirely on referrals. He uses his meticulousness, tenacity, honesty, and open communication to make a positive difference in his clients’ lives. Though he specializes in investment, new construction, and real estate development, Chris takes tremendous pride in serving a wide range of people with diverse real estate goals. No matter what his clients want, Chris ensures they get it — quickly, seamlessly, and profitably.
