"I believe that residential real estate is a relationship business," says Jessica Forsdick. Jessica transitioned to residential real estate from careers as a commercial agent and an eight-year stint in Houston's oil and gas industry where she negotiated contracts with major and smaller operators while actively focused on mitigating risk."Working in two high-octane industries, commercial real estate and the oil industry, taught me to thrive under pressure," Jessica says. "I always am better with more on my plate."Analytic but creative, focused but very social, Jessica loves helping her clients through the home sale or purchase process. As a child, her family was a part of the oil and gas business and she remembers bouncing between Houston and Midland as the market demanded. "I am well-versed in transitioning a household from place to place," she says, "and that's a real plus for my relocation clients."Jessica understands how daunting a real estate transaction can be for many clients. A home is typically a client's largest investment and she takes guiding them through the process very seriously. "My strongest attributes are negotiation on my client's behalf and building lasting relationships," she says.Jessica volunteers with Houston Alumnae Panhellenic Association (HAPA) and the Houston Alumnae Panhellenic Foundation (HAPF); serves on the board of Be An Angel, a non-profit aiding children with multiple disabilities and/or profound deafness; and serves as president of Alpha Phi Houston Alumnae chapter.A native of Midland, Jessica attended Midland High School and earned a degree in art history/English from Texas Tech University. She enjoys shooting sporting clays and is the president/executive director of Lady Clay Shooters, Inc. She also runs and is the veteran of three half-marathons; plays golf; collects art and attends art exhibitions; frequents the symphony, theater, and ballet; and loves spending time with friends and her rescue pup.

A believer in the power of positive thinking, Sharyn knows that attitude has an impact – on other people, situations, and most importantly, outcomes. "I've learned along the way that when you have a good attitude, are focused on your goal, and work hard, then you will always succeed."

When Sharyn worked in pharmaceutical sales some years ago, she learned a phrase that she still lives by: "Prior Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance." She is organized, detail-oriented, and a stickler about providing excellent customer service, and she thrives on the dynamic nature of the real estate industry. She stays abreast of fast-paced changes in neighborhoods, design and construction trends, and her clients' needs for housing. She keeps clients' needs at the forefront and always tries to be helpful.

"Every client is my most important client," says Sharyn Short. "My target clients are those who want to work with a professional who dedicates her time, energy, and expertise to help them buy, sell, or lease a home. Most of my business comes from word-of-mouth referrals from loyal clients - and that's marketing you can't buy."

Sharyn believes that community involvement is necessary for all communities to be great places to live and she stays actively involved in her own. She is a member and past president of the Memorial Forest Women's Club; a member and past member of the Memorial Forest Club Board; a past president and board member of the Memorial Forest Civic Club, Inc.; a member and volunteer at St. Martin's Episcopal Church; and a PTA member and volunteer at Frostwood Elementary, Memorial Middle, and Memorial High schools.

Sharyn is a native Houstonian and very familiar with many neighborhoods across Houston. She graduated from Cypress Creek High School and earned a BBA-marketing from the University of Texas. Her cherished leisure time is spent gardening, playing tennis, decorating, enjoying a movie night with her family, or reading the latest best-selling thriller.

Scott Landreth is a proven, award-winning real estate professional who consistently ranks among his company’s top producers every year. Outgoing and accessible, Scott enjoys the variety of people and transactions characteristic of residential real estate. “It’s not about finding a house as quickly as possible and moving on to the next ‘deal’,” Scott says. “It’s about helping people solve a housing problem. Because I do real estate everyday and my clients don’t, I am with them every step of the way as a strong advocate. My market knowledge, negotiation skills, and contract strategies serve them well to get through the process. I’ve been complimented many times on my ability to make things proceed smoothly even in the face of adversity, and I’m fortunate to receive a lot of referrals.”

Previous clients are happy to acknowledge Scott’s hard work and expertise. One wrote, “We started as clients and ended up as friends. Scott understood our needs and managed to take us through each step of the process – despite being six time zones and 5000 miles away!” Another stated, “People like Scott do make a difference and not just in his line of business. We found him to be extremely open and direct. He listened to our needs.” And a final testament, “Scott is a superstar, and if we ever move again, Scott is our man.”

Scott brings a diverse entrepreneurial and financial background to his real estate career: Contract Coordinator for foreign military sales at McDonnell Douglas Corporation; Director of Project Finance for a real estate development company; PC Software Developer for his own copyright; Director of Information Technology for a multinational consulting firm; and owner/operator of a title search company for 12 years. “All of this groomed me well to become a successful real estate professional, having dealt with contracts, financing and title issues,” Scott says. “Real estate is the only profession I know which makes full use of my knowledge and experience.”

Born in Washington, D.C., Scott spent the first half of his life abroad in Europe, Asia and Africa. He returned to the United States and earned a degree in Finance from New York University. “My extensive overseas travels and fluency in French give me a world view which enables me to identify with people from all walks of life, cultures, and socio-economic levels,” Scott points out. A resident of the Memorial area, Scott assists buyers and sellers in many neighborhoods across the Greater Houston area.

When not working, Scott enjoys boating (sail or motor), going to restaurants, and cooking. He is the father of an adult son who attended St Francis Episcopal School, Strake Jesuit College Preparatory, and the University of Texas at Austin.
