The Shawn M Team is a Multi-Million Dollar Top Producing husband and wife team with Coldwell Banker United, Realtors in the Heights Houston Texas.

Working alongside my husband and business partner for over 10 years, we offer our clients unsurpassed knowledge and expertise in many areas of the Houston Real Estate market that truly set us apart from other Agents. While earning a B.S. in Accounting at Excelsior College, I was consistently named to the honor roll, inducted into the prestigious Beta Gamma Sigma Business Honor Society based on academic merit and eventually graduated cum laude. Starting my career as an accountant with a local Houston advertising firm, I quickly expanded my skill set to include different aspects of marketing, advertising and computer technology, which benefit our clients today. After becoming the Controller for several branches of a medium sized international aviation firm in Houston, I chose to turn my attention to being a successful entrepreneur and started my first online company in early 2002. It quickly became a success and I sold it to gain funding for real estate investment projects. Investing in over 25 different properties, I continue to invest in real estate today which gives me a unique perspective of the Houston Real Estate market that further benefits our clients.

A self-taught computer guru, I am skilled in several computer-related areas including online and email/print marketing, SEO, social media, mobile technology and graphic/web design. I use my keen eye and marketing savvy to create visually stunning marketing materials and campaigns both online and in print for both the company and clients, which truly set us apart from other Agents. We employ several strategies both online and offline to ensure client success both in buying and selling homes in the Houston area. My unique skill set, knowledge and expertise are invaluable in helping guide our clients’ successfully through transactions and meeting their personal real estate goals and we consistently strive to exceed our client’s expectations.

In my free time I enjoy local and international travel, discovering new cultures, exploring nature, learning more about digital photography, keeping up with the latest mobile applications and tools, blogging about Houston life via The Houstonian Insider, sipping a heaping glass of iced tea, good conversations with family and friends, relaxing on the back patio, warm meals and the sunshine on my face on a cool day. We have three furry doggies that think they are kids and I enjoy spoiling them.
