Recently recognized by the Houston Business Journal as one of Houston’s Top 25 Residential Realtors (2024), and honored as a Top 25 Compass Houston agent and RealTrends Top 1.5% of agents nationwide (2022–2025), Jihye Deveau has established herself as one of Houston’s most trusted and accomplished real estate professionals.
Known for her deep market knowledge and high-touch service, Jihye specializes in luxury homes, new construction, historic properties, and family homes across The Heights, Memorial, Memorial Villages, Spring Branch, Timbergrove, Garden Oaks and nearby communities. Her business is built on referrals, repeat clients, and genuine relationships, reflecting her reputation for honesty, integrity, and exceptional results.
Grounded by humble beginnings, Jihye brings unmatched work ethic, determination, and empathy to every client relationship — qualities that have shaped her success as one of Houston’s top agents.
Before real estate, Jihye worked in finance and accounting at KPMG and on the Phillips 66 trading floor, where she developed the analytical and negotiation skills that now give her clients a competitive edge. Today, as part of Compass — the #1 brokerage in the U.S., she combines business acumen with creative marketing and cutting-edge technology to deliver seamless, data-driven results.
For sellers, Jihye offers a full-service approach: professional photography, strategic staging, and Compass Concierge funding to prepare homes for maximum return. She treats every listing as if it were her own — and consistently negotiates record-setting sales in her markets.
For buyers, she provides candid guidance on value, schools, and neighborhood dynamics. Jihye often secures access to off-market and coming-soon listings through her strong agent network, giving her clients a competitive edge in Houston’s fast-moving market.
Outside of real estate, Jihye is an avid marathon runner (Boston, Berlin, Houston, and a 50-mile ultra-marathon at Lake Tahoe) and enjoys exploring new trails and restaurants around Houston with her husband, John, and their two boys, Noah and Ethan. After a decade in The Heights, the Deveau family now calls the Memorial Villages home, where Jihye volunteers at Memorial Drive Elementary and stays active in the local community.
“We had the pleasure of working with Jihye during our home-buying journey in Houston, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. From start to finish, she was incredibly patient, always available to answer questions, and truly knowledgeable about the Houston area. Her calm and professional approach made the entire process smooth and stress-free, even when things got a bit overwhelming. Jihye took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and helped us find the perfect home. If you’re looking for a reliable and dedicated real estate agent in Houston, Jihye is the one to call."
