Hello, my name is Fran Marino. I am a full time licensed real estate professional. I was born and reared in Houston Texas and a residence of the same subdivision for many years. I look forward to working with you on all of your real estate needs. After all “Nobody Knows the areas better than a Lifetime Houstonian Resident & Realtor®”.
I am a South Texas State College of Law Graduate. I came into the real estate profession with a legal background for a large law firm here in Houston. My extensive career as a paralegal was very rewarding and taught me many things that I believe I have benefited from in the real estate industry.
Being a multi-million dollar producer I had more than five million dollars in listings; I know firsthand the emotions and stress involved with the home buying/selling process. That is why I always take a proactive approach to ease the tension of the whole process, by assessing your needs up front so it will enable me to not only meet but to exceed your expectations.
I have sold property in Austin, College Station and out of State through preferred Brokers that I work with & interviewed thoroughly before placing my client into their hands. I also have acquired National and International Investors.
I hold the nationally recognized Graduate Realtor Institute (GRI) designation. The GRI designation signifies the graduate has completed an advanced education program in specialized subjects such as legal issues, finance, marketing, real estate investments, professional standards and technology tools. Less than 10 percent of the Texas Association of Realtors holds the GRI designation.

Laura Gerardi has been in the real estate industry for nearly nine years. What motivated her to get into the industry was the interaction she and her husband had with a listing agent when they decided to buy their first home. The relationship she formed with the agent showed Laura the true impact a Realtor can have on their clients. Laura has been helping people find their dream home ever since!
Her extensive background in management and sales has helped equip her with unparalleled hospitality skills and customer service. The hard work, diligence, and professional networking skills Laura used in her sales career still lends itself useful when it comes to marketing her sellers homes and partnering with buyers to exceed their needs and expectations.
The best part of her job is being able to guide her clients through the real estate process and assisting in making their goals become a reality. If Laura can play a role in making the home buying or selling experience seamless and enjoyable, that's a huge win in her book. Her extreme attention to detail and service-oriented nature differentiates her from other Realtors in the industry.
A Houston native, Laura loves how the city is so diverse and encourages different lifestyles. She truly believes there is something for everyone here. When not with clients, Laura can be found enjoying quality time at Frostwood Park with her kids. She also loves entertaining alongside her chef husband in their new neighborhood in Bunker Hill Village.
Laura specializes in the Galleria and Memorial areas but provides her clients with exceptional service at an elevated level all over Houston. For a meticulous, hardworking agent you can trust, call Laura Gerardi today.
As an agent who's an expert in this local area, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise about buying and selling real estate here. It's not the same everywhere, so you need someone you can trust for up-to-date information. I am eager to serve you. Here are some of the things I can do for you:
You need someone who knows this area inside and out! I can work with you to find the right home at the right price for you, including all the neighborhood amenities that matter - not to mention the essential criteria you have for your ideal home
When it's time to move, you need someone who will advertise your home, show to prospective buyers, negotiate the purchase contract, arrange financing, oversee the inspections, handle all necessary paperwork and supervise the closing. I can take care of everything you need, from start to close.
Oftentimes buyers don't visualize living in your home the way you do. I can make your home attractive to its ideal audience - which can help you get top dollar. Things like staging the home, making repairs or minor improvements, or even simply painting the walls can be the difference between a home resting on the market and one that's sold fast.

For Me, the best part of being a REALTOR® is that "moment" with a client. I've always enjoyed working with contracts and protecting my clients, but I'd have to say my absolute favorite part is seeing my clients smile when they find "the one." We all know how incredibly emotional and exciting house hunting can be, and that moment is so special for everyone involved.
I'm well versed in laws, rules, policy and procedure and do whatever is needed to protect my clients and their best interests. It's always done so with a smile that makes you know for sure you're in the right hands.
