Genevieve Hartley

Genevieve Hartley is a Houston REALTOR® and real estate agent with The Kinne Group at SERHANT. Texas, one of the brokerage's founding Houston teams. Licensed since 2020, she represents buyers, sellers, and investors inside and just outside the Loop, with concentrated experience in The Heights, Garden Oaks, Oak Forest, Montrose, and Bellaire. She has closed more than 185 transactions since 2020, including 65 home sales representing approximately $25 million in volume, more than 120 leases, and several commercial deals.

Most of her clients fall into three camps: first-time buyers, real estate investors, and relocation clients, including physicians, residents, and researchers arriving for positions at the Texas Medical Center. Having come out of a research career herself, she knows how match day and fellowship calendars actually work, and how little room those schedules leave for a long commute. The lease work keeps her close to what Inner Loop rents are doing, which is usually the first question a relocating resident asks and the number investors care about most. She holds the RENE (Real Estate Negotiation Expert) designation and nearly 60 five-star reviews on Google.

Originally from Colorado, Genevieve fell in love with the diversity of Houston and now proudly calls the city home. A scientist in her previous career, she holds a PhD in Cell & Molecular Biology from Colorado State University and spent years conducting research in the field of tumor immunotherapy at MD Anderson, but as an extrovert she found herself drawn to real estate out of a desire to help people in a different way. One of her specialties is patiently educating her clients so they fully understand every step they are taking, along with the risks and benefits of each action or inaction.

What Genevieve Hartley's Clients Say

I LOVE GENEVIEVE!!! Genevieve is the best Houston realtor I've ever worked with, period. She is so informed, so organized, and so thoughtful.

I've never felt so informed! Thanks to her, this was not ...

Genevieve helped us find our first home! I’m not the easiest human in the world and somewhat prone to freak outs. Genevieve made this process as easy as it can be and was there for us for every question as first time home buyers. She is patient, professional, always prepared, and reassured us throughout the whole process. 15/10 rating!

It's hard to find a realtor who is genuinely determined to help you move into the best place for you. Genevieve doesn't cut corners, respects budgets, and will advocate for you.

She’s always on time and just made the whole process go real smooth. We couldn’t have chosen a better agent! 😁

Abigail Tobar

I’m always cautious when working with people. Especially if I think I can do it myself, and asking a realtor to help us find a rental property was one of those cases. BUT I’m SOOOOO glad we didn’t do it on our own. Genevieve was as patient, but as quick and diligent. Patient as in waiting for when we were ready, but quick and diligent when knowing how quickly we need to act to get wha...

Genevieve helped us find our house in Houston in April 2023. We were new to house buying, and she was an invaluable teammate as we navigated the process.

She helped us develop an optimal strategy while negotiating the final ...

My wife and I reached out to Genevieve to purchase a property down in Houston, TX and she was an absolute pleasure to work with.

Zulcoralis Rodriguez

Genevieve was a phenomenally professional and fast-acting realtor who got us our dream rental in a very competitive neighborhood. We had a bit of a unique timeline with moving to the area, leaving for a month for a trip, and returning to Houston with a short timeline to move for work. Mission impossible, it felt like, to find a place in the Heights for two dogs that needed a yard. But...

Always responded quickly regardless of the time of day. I will absolutely ...
