"With our move back to Houston from overseas Jihye made our experience seamless. She was organized from the very beginning and was always very responsive. We could not be happier with our experience and would recommend her time and time again. She worked hard to ensure we had a good experience and got a good deal on the house we wanted. We can not recommend her enough!"

★★★★★
"If we could give Jihye 10 stars, we would! Within the past several months, Jihye has helped my wife and I buy and sell a house in the Houston Heights. In both instances, we came out ahead due to Jihye’s excellent negotiator skills and impressive market knowledge. On the sale, she provided us with professional staging consultation service, pricing strategy, and comprehensive marketing plans to help us get top-dollar. But, most importantly, it is clear that Jihye views real estate as a relationship business and not a transactional business. I can say this with confidence, because through this process, Jihye has become a true friend and confidant to us. Although the process of buying and selling a house is typically quite stressful, Jihye goes above and beyond for her clients to make the process a smooth and fun experience. She truly was always accessible, available, and prompt whenever we needed her. I have quite literally never received such customer service or seen someone work so hard for his or her clients. We really cannot recommend her enough."

★★★★★
"Jihye is a miracle worker! We moved across the country with our family of four (2 under 2!) with very little lead time, and Jihye orchestrated the smoothest sell. Our biggest stresser was selecting one of the multiple offers, which actually wasn't a stresser at all thanks to Jihye's thoughtful guidance (and her spreadsheets...those things are LEGENDARY. So helpful!) We closed from out of state and Jihye made the process easy and effortless. She truly has a gift. Make your life easier and hire her immediately."

★★★★★
"Jihye is absolutely the best. Knowledgeable, attentive, takes care of everything, excellent communicator - absolutely on top of her game. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is buying or selling. You can't go wrong with Jihye."

★★★★★
"Jihye was highly recommended to us and she did not disappoint! She is thoughtful, thorough, efficient, knowledgeable, and professional. It truly was a pleasure working with her. I don't think we could have had a better experience selling our house!"

About Jihye

Being awarded the 20 Under 40 Rising Star in Real Estate by the Houston Association of Realtors in 2021, and consistently in the top 1% of all Houston real estate agents in production volume, Jihye has risen to be a young leader in the real estate profession. She has experience across the real estate spectrum, including single-family homes, historical properties, lots, townhomes and condos. Her success continues to grow thanks to hard work, attention to detail and referrals from prior clients.

Her career started out in accounting and finance at KPMG and then Phillips66, and the valuable skills she gained has enabled her to serve her clients and provide them with the best combination of business acumen, professionalism and attention to detail. As an agent with Compass, the nation's #1 real estate brokerage, she is equipped with best-in-industry technology and can provide her clients with support and services that they won't find anywhere else. Due to her highly personable nature and exceptional customer service, people come to Jihye as clients but leave as friends.

For sellers, she provides the best suite of services you can ask for: professional photography, staging consultation with a professional stager and available funds through the Compass Concierge program, to prepare your home for sale by fronting the cost of home improvement services like staging, painting and more. She treats each listing as if it was her own home for sale and negotiates for top dollar!

For buyers, she knows that this is one of the biggest investment decisions they will make, so she strives to be transparent and honest about the market and the process.

She keeps her pulse on the market daily. Due to her great relationships with many agents, Jihye has knowledge of coming-soon homes and has been able to get her clients previews before homes are even listed.
