Hey there! I'm Brandie Warren, a licensed Real Estate Professional here in Houston,TX. Born and raised on the South side of town, I am the daughter of an Army Veteran and have 18 siblings! I guess its safe to say I'm a people person haha! I entered Real Estate from the investment side of the business, beginning with an AIRBNB property that was very successful and since have furthered my knowledge in Airbnb, Fix and flip properties, first time investment and single family homes. "A home is not an investment unless you intentionally use it for that purpose." I enjoy the benefits of passive income through investments and I love showing people how to do this with real estate. Prior to real estate and after completing my service in the U.S. Army I spent years as a mail carrier, exploring different parts of the city and networking with thousands of business and real estate owners. That has provided me with countless connections to lenders, investments, contractors and the list goes on. With my knowledge and network you and I will go far! Contact me today to begin your real estate journey!

Lara Nesmith is a Realtor whose successful practice incorporates a major part of the Houston metropolitan area. Lara is experienced and knowledgeable, works in all price ranges, and introduces her clients to the very best properties.

A top producer since 1989 and a member of the Martha Turner Sotheby's International Realty's Circle of Excellence and Hall of Fame, currently a Luxury Specialist at Coldwell Banker, Lara works in Memorial, Memorial Villages, Sugar Land and has an expanding practice in Galveston as well. She is also experienced in the particular requirements of relocation buyers and sellers moving into or away from Houston.

Lara is proud that the majority of her business is referrals and repeat clients. I have worked with some of my clients as many as five times in the purchase or sale of their homes, Lara says. She attributes her success to long hours, strong market knowledge and top negotiating skills. My favorite compliment is when I'm told that I helped a client find the perfect house and made the transaction not only successful but enjoyable. We also help our sellers to stage their home prior to putting it on the market in order to help it sell for the best price, and we can also help buyers design and plan their remodel of a home. Lara has earned the Certified Senior Residential Specialist (CSRS) and Certified Negotiation Expert (CNE) designations, Luxury Specialist and has been recognized with the Texas Monthly Five Star Real Estate Agent award.

One of Lara's greatest assets is the ability to really listen. Once a client has described what they are looking for, I can search for property through their eyes, Lara says. And I always remember that purchasing a home or land for a home is one of the most important decisions most people will ever make. My working partner Trey also means a client gets two for one personal service.

Lara is a fourth generation Houstonian who grew up in Spring Valley and Memorial. She attended the University of Houston and Texas A&M University. Lara is married and has two adult sons, one of whom, Trey Nesmith, is a Realtor and has worked alongside Lara for many years as her working partner.
