Columbus Real Estate Agents

I am a graduate of Texas A&M University, a licensed Texas Real Estate Broker, and an Accredited Buyer's Representative. After graduating from A&M I relocated to Houston and then San Antonio to pursue my career in property management. The larger cities were wonderful for my career but when my husband and I were blessed with a daughter, I started reminiscing about life growing up in a small community. In 1993 we relocated to the Columbus area. After ten years of being a stay-at-home mom, I activated my broker's license and joined Keller Williams Realty out of the Houston area. Two years later, I joined a local real estate firm, Texas Star Realty, and managed the office but still enjoyed listing and selling real estate. Texas Star Realty was purchased by Coldwell Banker - The Ron Brown Company in January of 2015. In March of 2015 I was blessed to join Double G Realty, LLC a locally owned and operated company. In addition to being a full time Realtor, I was also involved with numerous school and community activities such as Parent Teacher Organizations, Girl Scouts, Columbus Aquatic Team and Tri-County Aggie Moms Club.

Kimberly Johnson is a third generation Texas Real Estate Broker, born and raised in Katy, Texas. Kimberly graduated a year early from Katy High School and went on to graduate from Texas A&M University. Starting at 14, Kim gained valuable experience in land development while working for her fathers engineering and surveying company, Clay & Leyendecker, Inc., where she still fills in when needed today. After A&M, Kim went to work for Stewart Relocation, a division of Stewart Title. She learned the title business and relocated mid-level managers through CEOs across the U.S. and Puerto Rico. At the advice of her broker/rancher grandfather she obtained her real estate license for her own investment purposes in 2008, joining the company her grandfather founded in 1978. She enjoys flipping homes and investing but she quickly realized that all of her experience had cumulated into something she really enjoyed and that was helping her friends and family buy homes, farms/ranches, and investment properties. She left Stewart Title to pursue this career that has been a natural fit for her love of helping people and the love of the hunt for the right property. In 2016 Kim was named a "Top 20 Under 40 Rising Star in Real Estate" by the Houston Association of Realtors. Kim sat on an advisory board for the Houston Association of Realtors from 2015-2017. Kim took over her Grandfathers company, with her cousin, Currie Luedecke, in 2017. She was named a Director with the South Central Board of Realtors in 2019. She has been married to her husband, Ross, for 16 years and has two daughters that she foresees being the 4th generation in this business.

A note from Lea Ann: I am so proud to be able to call myself a native Texan, born and raised in Austin, Texas! I began my real estate career at the age of 27 in the beautiful community of Friendswood, Texas. I was excited to be working with and learning from the Friendswood Mayor and Broker/Owner of Century 21 KEY Realtors, Mrs. Evelyn Newman. After dedicating 8 years to that firm, I made the decision to join RE/MAX in the Clear Lake area where I enjoyed a challenging and successful career before gravitating back towards the beautiful Texas Hill Country that I call home. After 32 years, I still very much enjoy my chosen career as a real estate professional. I have earned the distinguished Accredited Buyer Representative Designation through the National Association of Realtors and am the proud Broker and Owner of Living Texas Real Estate located in beautiful downtown & historic Columbus, Texas. I am a dedicated real estate professional who will be excited in helping you find your new home or that perfect piece of land, or if it's time to sell your property, give me a call! I'd love to meet you!
