ABR: Accredited Buyer Representative

Maria Grant-Bormann has been a licensed Realtor since 2008 and has already earned million-dollar producer status twice. No doubt, her ability to work well with people and her eagerness to please her clients is crucial to the stellar results she has received. Add in her designations as an Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR), Short Sales & Foreclosure Resource (SFR), and Certified Home Marketing Specialist (CHMS), and it is clear that Maria is a Realtor who stands out in the crowd.

Maria feels that clients who most benefit from her services are those who are looking for farms and ranches in the country, especially if they enjoy and ride horses. Why this area of specialty? She believes her experience as a horsewoman and competitor is an added value. She is also bilingual in English and Spanish and welcomes the opportunity to work with Spanish-speaking clients.

A former international missionary and commercial flight attendant, Maria chose what she calls the challenging but rewarding real estate profession as a career because, as an investor in several country properties, she wanted to learn more about the business and earn extra money. She feels she brings a unique perspective and upbeat personality, with a “Latin flavor,” to the profession.

She describes herself as caring, kind, tenacious, feisty, positive, friendly and hard working. Customer service is her top priority and the transforming of clients into raving fans is her ultimate goal.

Born in El Salvador, along with her teenage sister, Maria was adopted at the age of 14 by a family in Maine. She now makes her home in Brenham, Texas, and is the mother of a beautiful daughter named Mariah.

In her spare time, she enjoys playing soccer, horseback riding, cooking and reading Christian books. Because she feels so blessed to have been adopted herself, orphan ministry is her passion. She wants to be a voice for orphans and supports several orphanages in Central America.

The combination of Carrie's integrity and desire to help others find the perfect place to call home is the driving force behind her success as a real estate agent. She is an advocate for her clients and they benefit from her attention to detail and can-do attitude. Whether buying or selling, her clients know she will fight for their best interests and will work hard to produce a successful outcome.

Carrie's love for country properties brought her and her husband to Washington County in 2005 to raise their four children. This is an amazing part of Texas with rich history, beautiful rolling hills, and gorgeous trees, all while being centrally located between Houston and Austin, and 40 miles from Bryan/College Station. Her vast sales experience extends past Washington County into the surrounding counties and Houston, making her knowledgeable and experienced in several markets. Carrie also works with an amazing team of agents who have extensive experience in residential & farm and ranch sales. They work together to give their clients top-notch service and amazing results.

Growing up in a small town, I learned the value of hard work from a young age. I've never been one to wait for things to happen for me, but instead to seek every opportunity I could find to make things happen for myself. Now, I'm putting those skills to work assisting my clients in Real Estate.



My greatest joy has been raising my three children in a small town much like where I grew up. I've lived in the Brenham area for a little over 10 years and am proud to call Washington County home. I fell in love with Brenham for the small-town charm, community involvement and of course the Bluebonnets! My kids, however, fell in love with Blue Bell!



When I'm not assisting my clients, family adventures top my list of priorities. I love to go camping, hiking, fishing, playing board games and am always up for a fun new adventure. There are so many places to explore but floating the Frio River is a family (and Texas) tradition!



Whether your path is leading you to buy, sell, or invest, I'd love to take that journey with you! Give me a call today and let's explore all the possibilities that are waiting just for you!

I am committed to placing the goals of my clients first and to providing the highest level of service.

I am a firm believer that having a vision for your life and continually working towards self-improvement are vital keys to success. As an Army veteran and actor (starring in the 2008 movie Garrison as well as numerous commercials), my experience has taught me the importance of having vision. It's what helped launch me into my acting career. But it was my constant need to push myself, to improve myself, to do something more that led me to a highly successful real estate career. I started in real estate in 2000, investing in properties and working with 3 different home builders (2 of which have ranked in the top 10 homebuilders in the country for over 10 years). Wanting to do more than just invest, I obtained by realtors license in 2004 and worked for major companies such as GMAC Real Estate, REMAX, and Keller Williams. Not content with just sticking with the status quo, I obtained a broker license in 2009, starting my own brokerage in 2012. Starting a brokerage is no small feat. To make sure I lived up to my potential, I was coached by 2 of the top real estate coaches in the world—Jay Kinder (Coldwell Banker's #2 realtor in the world) and Michael Reese (creator of the National Association of Expert Advisors/NAEA). This led to me becoming a certified home buying and selling advisor with the NAEA. I've received so much amazing help from trade experts and I'm aware of how much it has helped me grow to success. In turn, I've now partnered and collaborate with Jay Kinder to help other agents grow successful businesses and teams with eXp Realty. Along with my real estate business, I'm also a fitness instructor for Lifetime Athletic Club. I firmly believe that fitness has had a huge impact on my physical and mental well-being, helping me to excel in the real estate business. I want to help others have that same physical and mental health to be able to succeed at whatever they do. I'm proud of my success and I work hard to make my beautiful wife of 16 years and 2 won
