Lisa Kornhauser credits her extraordinary success in the challenging field of residential real estate to hard work for each and every client. A recognized Top Producer for John Daugherty, Realtors since she was licensed in 1999 and currently ranked as the company's number two agent in sales volume, Lisa always keeps her clients' interests in mind. "I work around the clock," Lisa says. "This is not a '9-to-5' job. Emails have been known to come from me after midnight."

A highly personable, easy-going and level-headed demeanor enables Lisa to relate and work well with clients from all cultures and through every walk of life. "Anything is possible with the right attitude. Negotiating the best outcome for my client while maintaining a calm atmosphere and presenting resolutions that all parties regard as positive is one of my primary strengths."

This affable approach does not deter the determined, tenacious core work ethic that drives Lisa to push on for her clients when other agents might give up. "I never take 'no' as an answer. Where there is a will, there is a way, and I will find it. I give 110 percent to everything because I know that will make the decisive difference every time."

Lisa represents sellers and buyers in Houston's traditional close-in neighborhoods, focusing predominantly on areas in and around Bellaire, West University, Texas Medical Center neighborhoods, River Oaks, Tanglewood, and the Memorial Villages. She provides her hallmark personal attention and service for each and every client aided by a trusted, hand-picked, professional team of three licensed, long-term assistants: Kevin Johnson, Marcus Selander and Ellie Albritton.

The essential skill set for a top Realtor must include organization, attention to detail, and the firm belief that the customer is always right. Prior to entering residential real estate as a career, Lisa honed these sales and business skills as a highly-successful marketing and sales representative in the southern U.S. for luxury clothing firm St. John's Knits.

A Houstonian since the age of two, Lisa attended Bellaire High School and graduated from the University of Texas at Austin. She and her husband, Matt Kornhauser, a partner in a real estate law firm, have three grown children, two of whom are twins. With a demanding schedule that leaves her little free time, Lisa prioritizes leisure hours with Matt and her children, whom she regards as the greatest influences in her life.

“If you want something done, ask a busy person.” It’s an oft-spoken adage but one that rings true. A busy person has probably mastered the art of organization – which perfectly describes Ruthie Porterfield, a residential Realtor for more than 30 years. Ruthie has acquired an enviable clientele, none of whom would use anyone else for their real estate needs, and has been recognized for producing the highest volume of closed referral business within the company. Such outstanding repeat and referral business keeps her on the hop, but Ruthie always manages to maintain an even keel. Her exemplary professionalism and production consistently place her among the Martha Turner Properties Circle of Excellence top five producers every year, and she is a charter member of the Martha Turner Properties Hall of Fame. In 2010, Ruthie was recognized for 20 years in the Circle of Excellence and is a member of the Martha Turner Properties Pinnacle.

According to Houston MLS, Ruthie has been the number-one Realtor in all residential categories for the Tanglewood/Briargrove area every year from 1991 to the present. She is recognized every year in the Houston Business Journal Book of Lists for selling some of the top-50 most expensive homes in Houston. Both H Texas magazine and Texas Monthly magazine have recognized Ruthie as a top Realtor in central Houston.

Ruthie specializes in luxury residential sales. She loves finding the right house for the right person and listens intently to what her customers consider to be their most essential criteria for a new home. She takes a serious and comprehensive approach to market statistics, updating her neighborhood sales data on a monthly basis and serving as a valuable resource for her fellow Realtors. Clients are impressed by Ruthie’s in-depth knowledge of houses and have confidence in her advice and guidance, and a licensed Realtor assistant helps keep her business running smoothly.

A native of Fort Worth, Ruthie graduated from the University of Texas with a degree in interior design and a minor in architecture. She was a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority and is a retired member of the Junior League of Houston. Ruthie has served on the Texas Christian University Clark Board, the TCU Parent Council, and the boards of several Houston charities. She belongs to St. Martin’s Episcopal Church and is the mother of three grown sons.
