Broker Associate Cheryl Ford understands customer service. According to Cheryl, "Understanding customer service means treating each client as if they were the only client."

Cheryl has lived by this credo since beginning her real estate career in 1983. Her market area includes many of Houston's most desirable neighborhoods including River Oaks, Rice/Medical Center, Tanglewood, Briargrove, Briarcroft, Memorial, and most notably, Briargrove Park. A 30-year-plus resident of Briargrove Park, Cheryl provides her clients with valuable insight into this world-class neighborhood's many amenities. A second-home resident of Galveston since the 1990's, she is also very active in the island's West Beach real estate market.

Positive and outgoing with personal attention, hard work, reliability and attention to detail have lead to Cheryl's consistent high production placing her in the top-producer echelon as a member of the coveted Martha Turner Sotheby's International Realty Circle of Excellence and the company's Hall of Fame. Named one of the "Texas Super Realtors," Cheryl attributes her phenomenal success to her clients who provide consistent repeat business and personally staying current on market trends to keep up with the ever-changing Houston-area dynamic.

This kind of success in Houston's highly-competitive market can only be the result of the highest standard and a dedicated work ethic. Cheryl and her team have incomparable professional integrity, have their client's best interests at heart at all times and the ability to really listen to the client's needs and desires. Decades of success, an extensive knowledge of the Houston market while working in all price ranges results in hundreds and hundreds of satisfied buyers and sellers.

A native Houstonian, Cheryl taught handicapped children for ten years after graduation from the University of Houston. She has served on the board of the March of Dimes, St. Thomas Mothers' Club, and Strake Jesuit Mother's Club. Cheryl is also a member of The Houston Junior Forum who named her their Professional Volunteer of the Year.

Cheryl's leisure hours are spent with her husband, twin sons and two sets of twin Granddaughters.

Her business successes are secondary to the pride she feels about her family.
