Many years of success as a Realtor gives Ron Aga first-hand knowledge of most facets of the real estate industry and an enviable portfolio of clients who refer him to their family and friends.

“I have worked as a Realtor for the last 25 years in Southwest Houston neighborhoods, particularly Bellaire, Sugar Land, Richmond, Rosenberg, Katy, and Missouri City,” Ron says. “I have been a Houstonian since 1985.”

Ron speaks Hindi, Urdu and Gujarati in addition to English, a valuable asset in an international city such as Houston, and one that enables him to assist clients world-wide to purchase and sell real estate here. He works with clients of all ages and at all price points. “I love helping young clients purchase their first home as well as working with clients a bit further up the ladder to find their longed-for dream home.”

Professionalism, integrity, market knowledge and customer service make Ron the Realtor of choice for a growing network. “Most of my business comes from client referrals and word-of-mouth advertising,” he says. “That sort of recommendation is the highest accolade I can receive. It means I’m pretty good at helping my clients reach their goals.” A patient, attentive listener, Ron never pressures clients to make a decision but makes sure they have all the knowledge they need to make informed choices.

Born into a Zoroastrian family in Karachi, Pakistan, Ron graduated from the University of Karachi with a Bachelor of Science degree. He worked for Trans Mediterranean Airways before his family emigrated to the United States and Houston in 1985.

When not working, Ron works to help sponsor community events. He loves to travel, especially on cruise vacations. Ron and his wife of 37 years have one son and a grandson who lives in Austin.

Having moved to Madison county over two decades ago, I have enjoyed most of my adult life here. I worked as a registered nurse since 1984 and moved to Madisonville in 1994 continuing my nursing career. While I enjoyed helping people as a nurse, I also find real estate to be an occupation of helping as well. Navigating the process of buying and selling can be confusing, time consuming and frustrating. As an experienced realtor, I help buyers and sellers through the process making it worry free. Whether it is land, home, or commercial, I can take care of your real estate needs.

Samantha views her role in assisting buyers and sellers as more than a career – to her it's a responsibility and an opportunity to make a positive impact on other's lives. Samantha is known for her easy-going, friendly attitude, her joyful spirit, and her love of laughter. But when her clients' interests are at stake, her intense devotion, tenacity and negotiating skills come to the forefront. Making sure her clients are taken care of is her number one goal.

Samantha possesses a keen awareness of people's needs and concerns during the real estate process. Her innate understanding of people's needs comes naturally for the mother of one with another on the way. Her goal is to help every client purchase a home to provide a safe haven to escape to or to raise a family in. She has developed a strong and loyal customer base already and her early success only solidifies her great future in real estate.

Home is where love resides, memories are created, friends and family belong and laughter never ends.

Samantha looks forward to bringing you home!
