Join Houston and I for a conversation about his experiences being a real estate agent in San Francisco, CA. 

Houstons Bio:

Born & raised in San Francisco, Houston epitomizes youthful energy, integrity, diligence, & compassion - all important qualities in the world of real estate. At the age of 21, Houston sold his first listing (which was over $2m). At the age of 25, Houston obtained his broker's license, becoming the youngest real estate broker in the SF Bay Area. Valuing relationships with clients and loyalty are integral to Houston’s business ethics. Houston truly cares about his clients and the high level of service he provides: whether his clients are first-time buyers or seasoned investors, everyone receives white-glove concierge service. Houston is also involved with several Young Professionals Groups, notably with the the Bay Area chapter of the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation and the SF Association of Realtors.
