Born in Bangalore, India, I discovered the power of discipline and commitment during my formative years. To strengthen these qualities, I joined the National Cadet Corps the youth wing of the Indian Armed Forces, where I learned life skills that continue to shape my approach today. Following a diploma in soft electronics, my journey shifted towards luxury jewelry and watches, leading me to the vibrant Caribbean. Over two decades, I thrived in the high-end luxury industry, earning recognition from prestigious brands and earning authentic testimonials highlighted by local press. Transitioning into entrepreneurship, I founded and chaired Shree Jewelers, where I navigated challenges with grace and innovation. The onset of Covid prompted a new chapter as I moved to Katy, TX, and embraced a career in Real Estate. Real estate isn't just about appearances or DIY narratives it requires strategic planning, a strong mindset, and human connections. At my company , my motto "Out of Many, One" symbolizes my dedication to trust and integrity.

Hello, I am Larae Blanche Benitez. My family and friends call me Blanche, but since I have two names, most people call me Larae. I came to the United States when I was nineteen years old to take care of my ailing father. At age 21, I lost him to liver cancer and from then on I have to be on my own. This has given me an opportunity to be independent, resourceful and resilient with God's help. I became a licensed real estate agent in 2017, and finished my masters in Business Administration in 2018.
My career in the real estate business started in California. I have been in the property management field for more than ten years. I have had extensive exposure to the housing market since I started working in the affordable non-profit field, then eventually moved to managing conventional and luxury apartments as well. It is my pleasure to be an instrument to fulfill a family's yearning - a roof over their head or their ultimate dream home. I am grateful to God for providing me with all the right set of circumstances to be of service to people.
I am blessed to be married to my husband, Victor, who is my big motivator and supporter. Together we have five kids, four boys and a girl. They are Zenas, Eliakim, Hezekia, Seth and Phoebe.
I am looking forward to being of service to you, may you be renting, buying or selling a home, I am just a phone call away.

Hank Denton has been a Realtor for over fourteen years and is guided by the principle that, "the clients always come first!" He takes pride in knowing that every relationship, be it client or customer, is built on respect; thus, building a solid foundation for all future transactions. Hank is an Accredited Buyers Representative and has been representing buyers interest for over twelve years. The buyer is normally the person that a relationship is established with, so representing them just seemed to make sense. After spending twenty-three years in the Marine Corps, Hank decided to try his hand at real estate. Having moved twenty times in his military career, he feels that he has a good handle on what people are looking for when they move to a new area.
