As a daughter in a Naval family that moved many times, Colleen Hawkins can totally relate to families and individuals relocating from other locales, whether from coast to coast, state to state, city to city, or just across town. In fact, Colleen has lived in California, Florida, Hawaii, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia and now Texas (where her most recent move was one of only about 22 miles, from Katy to Cypress). So, she has experienced firsthand the challenges and dilemmas that families encounter – simple details that loom very large with both big moves and small ones – like housing requirements, neighborhood amenities, schools, shopping, available sports and more.

Added to that, Colleen and her husband have renovated every home that they have lived in, learning much about construction. In the past, they have also been involved in real estate investment, acquiring and rehabilitating properties while absorbing a great deal about the processes involved. This wealth of experience makes Colleen an excellent advocate for buyers as well as sellers.

Willing to spend whatever time it takes to get them into the home of their dreams, Colleen is good at listening to people, managing details and is a good communicator. She is patient and doesn’t stress easily when others around her are. She takes her profession seriously, continuously honing her expertise so that she can give clients the best and most complete information possible and allows them to make informed decisions.

Before beginning her career in real estate in 2014, Colleen was a Manager and Program Developer for hospital-based wellness centers for 30 years, focused on providing great customer service. She assisted individuals with problem solving, helped them define their problem or goal and set up active strategies to reach those goals. In the process, she developed good communication and time management skills and has considerable experience working with the public and other professionals. As a result, she is very confident.

With a BS in Social Work and an MS in Exercise Physiology, Colleen and husband, Jim, have been married since 1977. They have two married children and four grandchildren.
