Yvonne Cosgrove is a native Houstonian who grew up in West University and has called the Houston Heights home for 25 years. She attended Edgar Allen Poe Elementary School with New Leaf founder David Houston, and then went on to graduate from St. John's School and The University of Texas at Austin.
Yvonne has had a wide variety of life and work experiences that have led her to a career in real estate. She began her career in event planning and then transitioned to fundraising and grant writing for several area nonprofits. Yvonne's connection to the community and passion for our city run deep.
For eight years, Yvonne served as the Admissions Director for Trafton Academy, where she helped students and families find the right school home. For the last two years, Yvonne has worked with her husband, John, of HTX Appraisal, a boutique residential appraisal firm. In this role, she has gained an insider's view into the world of real estate and particularly the Houston market. Taking what she has learned, Yvonne is ready to make her own mark in the Heights, West U, Southgate, Braes Heights, or wherever her clients take her.
Yvonne's love for homes and real estate began surreptitiously. In 1998, when house-hunting for their first Houston home, John came to her and said he found a home that he was passionate about redoing. This home purchase began a years-long renovation project that included multiple additions along the way, and a love affair with redoing homes, and with the Heights. Yvonne and John still reside in that home. Their home won The Houston Heights Association Community Improvement Award, was featured in HGTV Magazine, and is periodically used for broadcast commercials. Yvonne's attention to the details, both inside and outside, and her love for helping people, will inspire her approach to finding her client's new dream home.
Yvonne and John raised their two wonderful children, Jake and Phoebe, in the Heights. Both kids now follow in their parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents' footsteps and attend The University of Texas at Austin! They could not be prouder, Hook 'em!
In her free time, Yvonne loves baking, and she recently appeared on the cover of The West University Buzz for her legendary chocolate cake. Cooking family dinners has always been a priority, and on weekends she is often planning epic dinner parties with friends.
