Native Houstonian Linda Ricca's professional portfolio includes a 20-year-plus, wide-ranging career of significant accomplishments within the health industry. Prior to becoming a Realtor, Linda earned a nursing degree from Houston Baptist University, practiced as an ICU nurse in the Texas Medical Center, transitioned into healthcare technology services and consulting, and finally moved into sales and executive oversight.

According to Linda, the dynamics of that previous career - managing multiple, detailed projects and providing guidance and counseling to families, clients and consultants - are similar to managing a real estate transaction. "In consulting, there were always new systems and processes to learn and new projects to develop and manage, as well as new clients and people to meet and assist, just as there are in real estate sales," she says. "There's also a strong emotional element present in both fields that requires caring, sensitivity, and understanding."

Linda uses her communication, service and financial skills to understand each client's unique situation and goals. A successful, proven business leader, she has a keen understanding of complex contracts and possesses the expertise and confidence to guide clients through their transactions from start to successful finish. "I am proactive and positive and continuously search for opportunities to learn more and share with clients what I learn so each transaction is better than the last."

Houston's traditional inner-Loop and near-Loop neighborhoods - Bellaire, West University, Tanglewood, Museum District and close-in Memorial - encompass the major areas where Linda sells. In addition to drawing on her innate knowledge as someone "born and raised in Houston and Sugar Land," Linda employs a wealth of valuable experience gained from working closely with her former husband, a residential builder, on many of his projects. "That exposure to the intricacies of home construction now helps me to assess a property's strengths and weaknesses and communicate that information to my clients. It also helps me explain inspection reports and contractual issues."

When not selling real estate, Linda is an officer on the Baylor College of Medicine Partnership Board and serves as Landscaping Lead for the Indian Circle Home Owners Association. Her leisure time includes traveling or at least getting away to the country whenever she can to spend time outdoors. Linda loves spending time with her daughter and son-in-law who live in LA and her son and daughter-in-law who live in Austin.

Rylie is a native Houstonian with over 6 years of sales experience. In her last two years as a Realtor, she has sold over 100 homes and won over 45 multiple offer situations.

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.

I will be honored to assist you to either acquire the home of your dreams or to promptly and aggressively market and sell your property. Looking forward to working with you. Sincerely, Jorge H. Sampayo M (713) 305-0000
