It was during her time working at the Mosaic on Hermann Park, a luxury high-rise condominium development, that this top producing Broker, decided to put her contract-to-closing experience to work and pursue her Realtor's license. Fast-forward eleven years, and she has not only achieved incredible success, but she now has her own full-service, boutique real estate firm, HTX Living, LLC. She was recognized by the Houston Association of Realtors as a Top 20 Under 40 Rising Star, and her success as an agent has translated to big accomplishments with her team as well. While at KW Memorial for almost 5 years, her team was honored for 1st place in gross closed income and 2nd place for both listing volume and closed units. As a Baylor University graduate, she smartly carved a unique niche for herself as an estate property sales expert early in her career. After working as a licensed assistant for a top producer at Martha Turner Properties, she built strong relationships with probate and estate attorneys, certified public accountants and financial advisers by billing herself as the "Queen of Probate." Doing so allowed her to gain footing in the more luxury-type neighborhoods early on. "Estate listings aren't always the nicest or prettiest, but they typically sell the quickest," she explains, adding that this experience established her credibility with real estate investors. It is one of the driving forces behind her decision to start her very own brokerage. After gaining some knowledge as a Broker Associate at a smaller firm called Tammy Bateman Properties, Jessica decided to make her final move with her team and open HTX Living. The reputation that she and her colleagues have established precedes them and she believes this is because they closely monitor contractual deadlines, skillfully manage expectations and remain in close communication, even executing after the transaction.
