What was your first job in the realty industry? I actually first worked at a title company, before obtaining my license.
Where did you grow up? In The Woodlands and in Conroe, Texas
What do you do to relax when you’re stressed? There is something about sitting on the back porch overlooking our property that just takes any stress away.
Growing up, what did you want to be? A veterinarian
If you could have lunch with a well-known figure (living or not), who would it be and why? Our current president. I would love to let him know that there will always be critics, but as a citizen we are backing him. I would love to discuss with him the reform of the VA on behalf of all our veterans and the importance of different programs for our buyers.
Where is your favorite place to hang out? Our job demands that we are always out and about. A quiet night at home with our little family is always welcomed!
What do you love most about the industry? Each transaction is different, every client has different needs and getting to help clients fulfill such major goals in their lives is so rewarding!
How do you distinguish yourself from the crowd of agents? My husband and I are a team. With his nine years in the Marines and my prior title knowledge we are able to help our clients at a whole different level!
What is the most difficult aspect of your job? Finding clients that have the potential to purchase a home, but are afraid of the commitment! It is such a blessing to say, “This is my home!” and I want that for all of my clients!
Where do you go to network and meet new clients? Honestly, we have such great clients that have referred us to their family and friends! We have been so blessed to have helped different members of a circle of family and friends, just from them sharing their homebuying experiences!
What has been your greatest accomplishment? Becoming a mom! After five years of marriage, we welcomed our first little one into the world in September of 2016 and we are over the moon!
What was the last good movie you saw or book you read? I am a hopeless romantic, I have read every Nicholas Sparks book he has ever written!
What is your favorite restaurant? Hands down, El Bosque in Conroe!
Architecturally speaking, what is your favorite building in Houston? The NRG Stadium! We have attended so many events here, we do not know what we would do without it!
What kind of car do you drive? I have a Nissan Pathfinder and my husband drives a Dodge RAM.
Smartphone or paper? I like the best of both worlds! I use my smartphone on the go to be able to answer emails or schedule showings, but have to have my documents printed out for my files!
What is your favorite city after Houston? Conroe is our home and will always hold a special place in our heart!
In 10 words or less, what is your advice for someone new to the industry? Treating your clients like family will help you make it!
What’s your favorite real estate iPhone/Android app? It would have to be my HAR app. I do not think I could live without it!
Who are your favorite people to follow on Twitter? I have not quite explored the Twitter world just yet!
Clarissa & Sam are the Best!!
