What moves the price in 77650
Mostly one-story. Only 20% of homes in 77650 have a second story. Painters can work most walls from the ground or a short ladder, which keeps labor down compared with ZIPs where two-story homes are the norm.
Similar-sized homes. Most homes here are close in size (middle half 1,150–1,760 sq ft), so the typical-home range is a fair guide for most of the ZIP. Siding share, trim detail and repairs move it more than size.
Newer homes, first repaint. The typical home here was built around 2011. Builder-grade exterior paint often needs its first repaint after 7–10 years in Houston sun and humidity; the first repaint usually needs fresh caulk around trim and windows more than wood repair.
Worked example
A 1,410 sq ft one-story home in 77650, brick and siding with painted trim and soffits: pressure wash, caulk, two coats on the painted surfaces. Labor about $1,900–$3,500.
