Licensed REALTOR® · Luxury & Waterfront Specialist · HAR Top Producer
For over 13 years, Lisa Marie Sanders has been the trusted guide for Houston home buyers, sellers, and relocating families. With $70M+ in closed sales and a reputation built on transparency and results, she brings certified expertise across luxury estates, waterfront communities, and out-of-state relocations.
Lisa Marie Sanders began her real estate career in Houston in 2011, drawn to a market that was as dynamic as it was diverse. What started as a passion for connecting people with the right home quickly became a calling — and over the next 13 years, she built one of the most recognized personal practices in the Greater Houston market.
Her work spans the full spectrum of Houston real estate: from luxury waterfront estates on Clear Lake to first homes in Katy and Sugar Land; from investors seeking income-producing properties to families relocating from California, New York, and the Pacific Northwest who needed a trusted guide in an unfamiliar city.
"Real estate isn't just a transaction — it's one of the biggest decisions a family will ever make. My job is to make sure they make it with full information, zero pressure, and someone genuinely in their corner." — Lisa Marie Sanders
Lisa Marie's luxury credentials — including the Certified Luxury Home Marketing Specialist (CLHMS) designation — positioned her as one of Houston's go-to agents for high-end waterfront and estate properties. She has represented buyers and sellers on properties from the $300Ks through $5M+, with particular depth in the Clear Lake, League City, Friendswood, and Bay Area waterfront corridors.
Her work in relocation earned her the Certified International Property Specialist (CIPS) designation — a credential that reflects her ability to guide buyers who may be purchasing sight-unseen or navigating an entirely new metro. She has helped hundreds of out-of-state families land in the right Houston-area community, from school district research to neighborhood tours conducted virtually.
What sets Lisa Marie apart isn't just her transaction volume — it's her process. She's known for exhaustive pre-search consultations that surface what clients actually need, not just what they think they want. She provides written summaries of every showing. She negotiates hard — her buyers regularly close below list price — and she never rushes a decision.
Her 127 verified five-star reviews across Zillow, HAR.com, Google, and Realtor.com speak to a consistent experience: clients feel informed, never pressured, and fully supported from first showing through closing day.
Lisa Marie is licensed with Living Vogue Real Estate and is an active member of the Houston Association of Realtors (HAR), the Texas Association of Realtors (TAR), and the National Association of Realtors (NAR).
While Lisa Marie has deep expertise in the waterfront communities of the Houston Bay Area — Clear Lake, League City, Friendswood, Seabrook, and Kemah — her practice spans the full Greater Houston metro. She regularly works in The Woodlands, Sugar Land, Katy, Pearland, and inner-loop Houston neighborhoods including River Oaks, The Heights, and Memorial.

Lisa Marie made our relocation from San Francisco completely seamless. She knew every neighborhood, every school district, and every pitfall to avoid. Found our dream home in The Woodlands in under 3 weeks.
As first-time buyers we were nervous, but Lisa Marie walked us through every step. She negotiated $18k off the list price and made sure we understood everything before signing. Cannot recommend enough.
We wanted waterfront with a very specific wishlist. Lisa Marie found us a property in Clear Lake Shores that checked every single box — including a private dock. She knows this market better than anyone.
