Client Testimonials

CRES + Associates and Connie Rankin are an active and well know part of the Houston Real Estate Community. Connie does extensive work in the Community assisting Woman Owned Businesses build their businesses and provide much needed services to companies like Shell that are interested in seeing this segment of the economy grow and prosper. In addition to her being an outstanding real estate broker in her own right, Connie’s firm allows Shell to demonstrate its commitment to WBE businesses so that other WBE firms are encourage to apply for business with Shell.

CRES + Associates has worked with the Women Business Enterprise Alliance to negotiate lease terms for three different office spaces. The most memorable is, following hurricane IKE, they assisted the WBEA staff in the preparation of the closing of the damaged offices and relocating us to temporary space. In addition, their firm opened a hot line for businesses to offer free assistance and resources as they recovered from the hurricane. CRES has been a great asset to our organization and to our certified women owned companies over the past 10 years of being in business.

Connie as President of CRES + Associates is a very professional real estate manager and leasing agent. I have watched her successfully manage buildings and then take over the leasing aspects and do extremely well with making deals that other brokers could not. Her level of integrity in all aspects of her work is at the highest point.

CRES + Associates uses their extensive commercial real estate expertise to ensure all businesses have the same level of negotiating power that building owners bring to the table when they negotiate a lease. It is amazing how much they can save you, and how much better the terms can be when they represent you in your lease negotiations.

CRES + Associates are wonderful to work with. They gave us straight answers and advice, even when we didn’t want to hear the answers they provided. CRES worked diligently to find just the right space for us. They listened to our needs and exceeded our expectations with the office space they found for us. They are a delight to work with. I have recommended CRES to others and will continue to do so.

I called CRES + Associates because I needed assistance with leasing office space. They put my interest first (by giving up a potential commission) and recommended I remained with my current arrangement. When timing is right, I will definitely go back and also recommend them to anyone needing tenant representation.

I highly recommend CRES + Associates. From beginning to end, they displayed innovation and expertise to ensure the best possible results. Any tenant seeking a renewal or new lease space should use her.
