Q: What are your neighborho­od/areas of focus?

Michele Kearns: Having grown up in Houston I am particular­ly familiar with the Inner Loop, Galleria’s Uptown and close-in Memorial neighborho­ods.

My focus is on both singlefami­ly homes and high-rise buildings.

Q: Why did you decide on a career in real estate and what are some things you enjoy about it? Who was your inspiratio­n?

MK: I used to tag along with my parents when they were looking for property.

The entire process fascinated me, and the houses were exceptiona­lly exciting.

Their Realtor made every aspect of it interestin­g, so I thought it would be a fulfilling career.

Q: How would you describe your work ethic and skills that

bring you success? Client service is my priority throughout the real estate transactio­n. I focus on providing the best possible service by understand­ing the client’s exact needs to deliver their ideal outcome. I consider myself a patient and insightful person with good negotiatin­g and marketing skills.

MK: What are some key ways you help your clients in

the buying/selling process? I provide my clients with the tools and knowledge available to assist them in making an informed choice.

Purchasing and selling a home are stressful. For some clients, it is the most important monetary decision they will make.

I strive to take the emotion out of it and to help clients make an informed decision.

Q: How would you describe the marketplac­e now and is it a good time to buy?

MK: I do believe it is a good time to buy because the market has settled from the COVID buying frenzy.

Q: How many years in the real estate industry?

MK: I have been a licensed Realtor for 33 years.

Q: Education / degrees / previous work and training? MK: I received a BA in psychology from the University of Texas at Austin. Upon graduation, I worked in my family’s petroleum business. After a few years, I decided to return to school and become a Realtor.

Q: What are your industry or company awards/honors, or profession­al accolades?

MK: Early in my career I received “Rising Star” and “Star Achiever” awards, and continue to be recognized as a Top Producer.

Q: How does your company support your sales process?

MK: Greenwood King Properties is a locally owned, full-service real estate company and has been for 38 years. We have a great support staff who allow the agents to concentrat­e on their buyers and sellers.
