RENE: Real Estate Negotiation Expert

Helping buyers by providing them with information and resources for whatever stage of the homebuying process they may be in; helping them to save as much money as is possible; and guiding them stage by stage, and step by step, through the homebuying process, until they have keys in their hands! This is what I do. This is what I love to do! And I've been doing it since 1997. Would you like my help too?

Whether HOME relates to a lifestyle choice such as a favorite activity or your speed of life, or a choice to rent or to purchase, or a proximity to something special or necessary, such as near work or a church or school, my team and I are ready to help find you the BEST fit for YOU!

I hold multiple designations and certificates, but what that means to you is that I take my job seriously, and that I go above and beyond the basics, so that my tools are always sharp and ready to go. I hold the ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative), the CNE (Certified Negotiations Expert), the CRB (Certified Real Estate Brokerage Manager), the CREI (Certified Real Estate Instructor), the CRS (Certified Residential Specialist), the ePRO (Internet Professional), the GRI (Graduate, REALTOR Institute), the RENE (Real Estate Negotiations Expert), the SFR (Short Sale and Foreclosure Resource), and the TAHS (Texas Affordable Housing Specialist). All, but the last designation, are nationally recognized designations.

I was graduated from Texas A&M University in 1987 (Whoop!) with a Bachelor of Arts degree! My passion for service and commitment have been lifelong, and pray that it is evident in my results with my clients, felt by my friends, and most importantly, seen in my family, and by my love for God.

Bob Christian is the Founder and Head Agent Motivator for Upside Real Estate in the West Houston/Katy area. Our award-winning agents & brokers have been consistent top producers for almost 20 years.


Bob and his wife Jennifer are proud Cinco Ranch residents where they continue to raise their five children. Their children have all grown up through the local Elementary, Jr High, and Cinco Ranch High School, so Bob is very familiar with the local community and Katy ISD schools. Together, Bob & Jenn have lived in the Katy/West Houston area for over 35+ years.


Bob's family has also been involved in the Greater Houston area real estate industry for over three generations. As a little boy, I fondly remember riding with my Grandfather as he would make his rounds checking on investment properties and building projects and visiting with tenants. Those fond memories are what initially drew me to real estate where I have found my passion.

I grew up on the west side of Houston. After obtaining my BA in Psychology from Nazareth College in upstate New York, I relocated back to the Houston area and now live in the Bay Area. I spent approximately 13 years living in the Middle East, Far East and Euro-Asia. I understand the process of relocating, finding a home and a life in a new city. The home is your family's base and the focal point of the life style you desire. Locating that perfect fit should be a pleasurable experience. On the flip side of the coin, selling a home should be an exciting time with prospects of moving on to other adventures and life experiences. I strive to be the agent that makes both experiences memorable and enjoyable.

My Caribbean roots, as well as my experiences gained while volunteering around the globe, instilled a deep passion for working with and helping people from all walks of life and backgrounds. Upon returning to the US, I found a role that allowed me to use my diverse experiences and talents to help members of my community. I realized real estate offered everything I was looking for, and six short years later, I have helped countless members of the Houston community make their real estate dreams come true. My passion for helping, combined with my professional experience in project management and engineering, has allowed me to develop efficient systems and processes that smooth the home buying and selling experience, and help my clients find the ideal property or buyer. I understand real estate transactions can be stressful, so I make every effort to make my clients' experiences low-stress, memorable, and even a little fun! If you're looking to buy or sell in the Houston market, you deserve to work with an agent that places your satisfaction at the top of their priority list. Contact me today!
