To treat human beings the same way I would like to be treated is my general philosophy in life. I enjoy working with people and is my pleasure to represent sellers and buyers in their real estate needs. I was born in Puerto Rico and came to Texas in 1982. For many years I worked for financial institutions which I also enjoyed very much. The Real Estate industry was and is one business field that fascinates me; enough motivation to change my professional career.

I have earned my Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration at the University of Houston, I have also earned the GRI (Graduate Realtor Institute) designation and continously updating my skills and knowledge in the Real Estate Industry.

Living and working in Texas has given me the oportunity to work with a very much diversified population. It is very interesting to learn about different cultures and people's values; this has helped me to develop the necessary skills to reach more sellers and buyers.

The "green realtor" is what I call myself since I use every oportunity I get to promote energy conservation and recycling. It will be nice to have the state and local governments not only promote, enforce and teach us about it but also to create and facilitate ways for people to participate.

Honesty, fairness, integrity and availability are some words that describes my profesional actitud. I am commited to give my clients the best service. Thanks for serching my personal website.

A detail-oriented, technologically-savvy self-starter, Emily Vidor Porter began her real estate career with a plan. After graduating from the University of Texas at Austin, Emily was on track for law school but soon realized she needed to change course. "I worked for an oil and gas law firm and quickly realized that a desk job was not for me," she says. "I knew it was time to make a different plan that got me out of the office and interacting with people. I signed on as an agent-assistant at Greenwood King Properties in 2013 and learned the business from the ground up!"

After four, very intense, years learning from and working side-by-side with top producers at GK, Emily became an agent without missing a beat.

As a native Houstonian, Emily has an established network of sellers and buyers in the West University area where she grew up, and has expanded that core client base to now include most of Houston's traditional neighborhoods.

No matter who, what, where or when, Emily is extremely goal oriented, providing her clients first class, top notch service from start to finish!
