A second-generation Houstonian, Jim Rosenfeld acquired a passion and enthusiasm for all aspects of real estate very early in life. Growing up in Sharpstown Country Club Estates, Jim remembers admiring the grand old homes in his grandparents’ Montrose neighborhood and fondly recalls attending open houses and exploring new construction homes with his mother. As a student at the University of Texas, he assisted his parents in building one of the first custom homes in one of Houston’s first master planned communities, Sugar Creek, in Sugar Land.

After graduation from UT with a BBA in finance, Jim became a trust officer at the headquarters of First City National Bank in downtown Houston. He received his Texas real estate license in 1976 while still at First City and began his real estate career working with many of the original developers of townhouse, condominium and residential high-rise projects in the Tanglewood area. Jim eventually founded and was the broker/owner of his own independent real estate firm, San Felipe Properties, which he operated for more than 30 years. As a Realtor with Martha Turner Sotheby's International Realty, he focuses his business on Houston's close-in, prominent neighborhoods as well as most of the high-end master planned communities surrounding the metropolitan area.

Jim’s reputation for integrity and character has consistently been the foundation of his business, and his exceptional communication and negotiation skills are complemented by impeccable follow-through and outstanding professionalism. Jim provides clients with up-to-the-minute product and market knowledge, enabling them to make the most informed decisions possible, and includes information on everything from the latest interior design trends to the most recent construction standards. He is dedicated to achieving the highest level of satisfaction for the buyers and sellers involved in every transaction.

Maintaining close rapport with all of his clients nurtures Jim’s decades-long friendships developed from his real estate interactions. His loyal clients and their generous referrals to friends and family have, time after time, been the key to his success and allowed him to proudly serve multiple generations of many Houston families.

A long-time resident of the West University area, Jim is an active member of numerous board, honorary and underwriting committees for many of Houston’s prominent charitable organizations. His affiliations include:

• • Lifetime member- The Partnership for Baylor College of Medicine

His leisure time is spent reading real estate and financial publications, biographies and non-fiction; gardening; and pursuing his fitness training. He enjoys traveling and makes a point of discovering and exploring luxury communities across the country.

Having sold real estate for more than 39 years, I have experienced many trends Houstonians have encountered. My career began in the West University area and has slowly grown to encompass the Upper Kirby District, River Oaks, Royden Oaks, Oak Estates, Afton Oaks and the Villages of Memorial.

Dealing with predominantly high-end properties, I have met many market-savvy buyers and sellers. I am always learning new ways of educating my clients and myself to deal with the current market trends and everchanging market cycles.

My professional goal is to provide the absolute best service to my clients by always giving 110%. I am a very ethical, honest, reliable and motivated individual. I take the care of my client's needs very personal, and due to my high standards of business practice, I have been featured in the Houston Business Journal several times as one of the Top 25 Real Estate Agents in Houston.

I believe that authenticity leads to a meaningful relationship. Please allow me to be of service to you in life's most important investment, YOUR HOME!

Over that period, I was responsible for a $20 million monthly budget and $25 million in Revenues. Service and Profit were key responsibilities.

An enthusiastic fan of all styles of architecture, interior design, landscape architecture and the many innovations in the field of home building and remodeling, Robin is 'right at home' in the fascinating world of real estate. She obtained her license 11 years ago and has enjoyed working with home buyers and sellers, and renters from all over the globe. She has worked side by side with several top producers at Martha Turner Sotheby's, so when she joined the Leasing Department, she brought many years of experience and on-the-job training with her. Robin is thrilled to be collaborating with like-minded colleagues in the satisfying process of assisting rental clients to find the homes of their dreams and landlords to quickly lease their properties to well-vetted tenants. As we know, leasing a home is a very personal experience that requires an immediate partnership between a Realtor and her client, and this is where Robin shines.

Robin was born in Chicago, grew up in Houston with four treasured sisters, and then moved away for many years before finding her way back home to our fair city. Prior to her career as a Realtor, Robin recruited attorneys for several major law firms, sold new homes for many builders, and treaded the boards as a professional stage actress for more than 20 years.

Robin, who has a BFA in theater, is proud to have read the complete works of Shakespeare (now, whether or not she understood those plays and sonnets - well, as Hamlet said, that is the question). Married to a fifth generation Houstonian, they enjoy traveling when the opportunity presents itself and taking delight in Houston's exceptional restaurants. Robin's many hobbies include walking the incomparable Tanglewood Blvd., watching classic movies, and caring for way too many cats.
