I am looking to buy a home in Texas and must deal with a realtor provided by our relocation service. I think the information he's provided on the house we want to put a contract on is skewed. How can I find actual sold prices and concessions for the area? I'm specifically looking for closed prices in Flower Mound, Texas. Anyone buy or sell there recently.

Try www.zillow.com
If Texas transactions are public records, it should show up.
The agent should be willing to show you comps for the area. Concessions won't show up, only the final selling price.

You should ask your realtor for written examples of 'comparable sales' from the local MLS. These can be easily printed out and provided to you. Depending on the information contained in the MLS, he may not be able to give you examples of concessions. My particular MLS only shows the actual sale price of the properties in question, with no comment or information about concessions.
