Houston Real Estate Agents

Christian Leach knows real estate from the ground up, literally: from purchasing a lot to picking out finishes, she has walked hundreds of clients through the process of buying, selling, and investing in residential property. But walking isn't exactly the right word ... with Christian, it's more like a dance: she is dedicated to ensuring that you will love not only your home, but the life you live in it and the whole experience of making it yours.

Finally, she became the REALTOR ® she was meant to be: the confluence of all her past experience and connections, overlaid with her personal brand of grit, good humor, and grace under pressure.

Christian's clients remain in her life long after the deal is done, which speaks to her steadfast loyalty and magnetic personality.

This distinct perspective allows her to appreciate and speak to the full breadth of what Houston offers a vibrant tapestry of culture, arts, cuisine, and, most importantly, remarkable people.

Before entering residential real estate, Lauren was industry-adjacent, working in sales and business development in the commercial real estate world for over 12 years.

She knows that every person and situation is different and that listening and understanding what is truly needed is the basis of success.

Outside of work, Lauren and her wife, Annie, love to travel and experience different cultures through food and wine. They also find joy in the art of hospitality, delighting in curating memorable moments through gatherings and dinner parties. In her free time, Lauren taps into her creative side through painting, stays active through running, and enjoys the outdoors with their dog, Truman.

While I enjoy working with folks of all ages, I specialize in working with senior citizens and their families. As a Senior Real Estate Specialist I have the training and experience in dealing with the unique issues that our seniors face when it comes to the sale of their home. I have the resources to put you in contact with other similarly trained professional advisors such as senior placement advisors, move managers, estate sale planners, and elder law attorneys to name a few. My mission is to help seniors and their families navigate the maze of financial, legal and emotional issues that come with the sale of the home.

When I'm not helping my clients with their real estate needs, I enjoy traveling, reading, photography, scrapbooking and spending time in the outdoors with my four kids and husband.
