A keen interest in homes, real estate and sales at a very young age became the foundation of Cheri Fama's career.

A native of Beaumont and a Houston resident since 1978, Cheri graduated from Texas A&M University with a BBA in marketing. Her decision to learn the real estate business from many angles was a wise one. She launched her career as a consultant with Houston Lighting and Power (now Reliant Energy), allowing her to work with many of the most prominent commercial and residential developers, architects and builders during a period of explosive growth in Houston. This experience propelled her into a position with Lincoln Property Company, a national commercial firm. Cheri handled commercial office leasing for the firm as well as marketing efforts and build-to-suit jobs.

Her interest in residential real estate was always in the background, and in 1982, Cheri moved into Custom New Home Sales representing seven builders in the Sugar Land area. Her new-construction knowledge and experience served her well as she later associated with a prestigious real estate firm in 1986 and quickly became the firm's primary "go to" person on new construction in the redeveloping of close-in neighborhoods including Tanglewood, Memorial, River Oaks, etc.

Cheri ultimately became the president of the firm, which was purchased by Zarr & Company Realtors in 1994. Her diverse background provided the knowledge and depth necessary to maneuver into the exciting and expanding Downtown Houston residential arena. Cheri moved the company into the Central Business District in the fall of 1998 with the Keystone Loft project, followed by the Capital Lofts and other developments. The company became the prime source for developer consultation prior to launching Downtown residential projects.

In 1999, Zarr & Company merged with House Hunters, and Cheri's role expanded to include management of the firm's largest branch operation. This position afforded her the opportunity to work one-on-one on a daily basis with sales associates by supporting them in their sales efforts and continually providing them with the knowledge and training that truly set them apart in the marketplace. Continued involvement with new construction has included marketing and sales of the Tanglewood and Venti mid-rise condominium developments as well as numerous single-family homes and townhome projects. Cheri's extensive experience in real estate led her to John Daugherty, Realtors in 2010. She is currently President and Chief Operating Officer.

Cheri has been extensively involved with the Houston Association of Realtors since 1990, serving multiple terms on the Board of Directors and chairing numerous committees and events.

Her community involvement includes the Junior League of Houston, Duchesne Academy Parents Association, Kinkaid Parents Association, Baylor University Parents Association, Texas Christian University Parents Association, The Nancy Owens Memorial Foundation, Houston Ballet Guild, Visionaries for Neighborhood Centers, Inc., Dress for Success Advisory Board, Rice University Guest Lecturer and Briargrove Property Owners Board of Directors.

Cheri and her husband Alan, a fine art broker, have two children and enjoy traveling and sports.

To treat human beings the same way I would like to be treated is my general philosophy in life. I enjoy working with people and is my pleasure to represent sellers and buyers in their real estate needs. I was born in Puerto Rico and came to Texas in 1982. For many years I worked for financial institutions which I also enjoyed very much. The Real Estate industry was and is one business field that fascinates me; enough motivation to change my professional career.

I have earned my Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration at the University of Houston, I have also earned the GRI (Graduate Realtor Institute) designation and continously updating my skills and knowledge in the Real Estate Industry.

Living and working in Texas has given me the oportunity to work with a very much diversified population. It is very interesting to learn about different cultures and people's values; this has helped me to develop the necessary skills to reach more sellers and buyers.

The "green realtor" is what I call myself since I use every oportunity I get to promote energy conservation and recycling. It will be nice to have the state and local governments not only promote, enforce and teach us about it but also to create and facilitate ways for people to participate.

Honesty, fairness, integrity and availability are some words that describes my profesional actitud. I am commited to give my clients the best service. Thanks for serching my personal website.

I was born into real estate. My grandmother, Ethel Rogers, became a broker and opened her first office in 1972, the same year I was born, and I have been surrounded by it and loved it every second since. I grew up in the Houston area and became passionate about helping the community develop and grow.

Real estate is what I do; I am hooked on constantly gaining more knowledge about the industry to help my clients best. When I'm not coming up with new innovative ways to market our resources or training members of the John Rogers Home Ownership Team, I am out and about attending conferences and events to gain more information and contribute ideas on the business systems for real estate teams.

As for hobbies, as I said before, I do real estatehowever, I do devote every weekend available to my family. I'm also into Houston Sports, big boats, and ATVs when I have the time.

I love working with the John Rogers Home Ownership Team because it is a great group of people who are not afraid to think outside of the box while still maintaining the enthusiasm and perseverance that is necessary in the real estate business.
