About Donna

I have been a Texas REALTOR® since 1998. This career has been built on being in the relationship business rather than the selling business. Working in a rural area such as ours has given me the opportunity to gain years of experience in residential, commercial, farm & ranch, and unimproved properties. Our buyers, sellers, and property management clients range from multi-family investors to recreational lake home owners to owner-occupied residential homes. Close proximity to Sam Houston State University offers us some unique challenges and opportunities with student and faculty housing needs; we enjoy working with these newcomers to our area. Our area is growing and changing. We look forward to all of the possibilities that this new economic development brings to our communities.

    About Mari

    Hi, my name is Mari Montgomery and I've been either working in real estate or wishing I were working in real estate for as long as I can remember.








    Fourteen years ago, I decided to follow a dream. A dream of helping others find their home and staging and selling homes








    I am as happy as a pig in mud.








    I started on my own, grew into a having a team and employees and a large building.








    I realized management did not fulfill me. I LOVE my clients, and I didn't get to see my CLIENTS & get to really know them. I missed THAT.








    So, I've come full circle to being back on my own.








    I'VE found HOME :-)















    What are Mari's Clients Saying?

    Pinnacle Realty Advisors
    About Celeste

    Does your home no longer fit your needs? Too big? Too small? Not enough land? Too much land? Need to sell your current home before you can buy a new one? How does this process work? What do I need to do first? What's the market look like right now in my area? If you have more questions than answers, Celeste is your local go-to real estate specialist! Serving greater Walker and Trinity counties, including the Lake Livingston area, Celeste knows what it takes to make your home sell. From social marketing to staging to professional photography, she will work tirelessly to make sure you get the most 'bang for your buck'. Choosing the right neighborhood, the right home that meets your needs, plus helping navigate the transaction details like financing, negotiating, inspections, appraisals, closing timeframe and more - Celeste is on top of it all. Here is Celeste's story in her own words: I've always found my niche working in customer service and problem resolution. Give me a complicated issue, and I will untangle it. After years in the healthcare industry, and the burnout that ensued, I found myself wanting to make a change. I accepted a temporary (I thought) part time job as an admin in a real estate office while I figured out my next steps. However, this industry began to grow on me. I'm not a 'sales-y' person, so I wasn't sure this would be a good fit. What I learned was, while agents do help clients buy and sell real property, this business is so much more about our relationships with people and making sure they get the absolute best without being screwed over. Many of my clients have become my friends and repeat customers and I LOVE helping them and keeping in touch even after the transaction closes. No, I won't always tell you what you want to hear. No, I don't just open doors and collect commissions. Yes, I will help guide you through each step of what can be a complicated, and sometimes lengthy, transaction. And y
