Diana Blackman, a Dallas native, swears she is “the Search Queen,” as she loves nothing more than finding the right fit for her clients when it comes to neighborhood, schools, commute, etc. Focusing on working with buyers, Diana is in constant pursuit of hip pockets and other hidden gems that will spark joy for her clients.
Mary Markey, a fourth-generation Lakewood resident, enjoys all aspects of home buying and selling. From assisting sellers in staging their homes or helping buyers envision the potential in a property, Mary’s clients are guaranteed an enjoyable real estate transaction.
Mary Katharine brings invaluable skills, relationships, experience, and energy to all her clients. Formally trained in sales with over 15 years of experience, her passion for what makes a house a home so evidently suits her real estate endeavors.
Lisa graduated from The University of Texas in Arlington with her BBA in Accounting after 8 years in McDonald’s polyester. She began her professional career with Grant Thornton as an auditor and spent two years being exposed to many different industries as well as 60-hour work weeks. After her time at ‘Grant’, she was hired as a consolidations accountant with PepsiCo Foods International, accounting for turmeric flavored yam chips and learning to call the soft drink machine a ‘Pepsi’ machine and NOT a ‘Coke’ machine. She then moved onto the real estate world doing personal accounting for the Trammell Crow family working with the family investments in Trammell Crow Residential and The Wyndham Hotel Company. Her next career move introduced her to Chris while working at a distribution company in Fort Worth. Chris and Lisa stayed in touch and as Chris’ business grew, he brought Lisa on as his controller. Lisa enjoys rescuing animals, vegan cooking, reading, riding her motorcycle and spending her summers ‘back home’ on Long Island, NY.
