Real Estate That Fits Your Family
Houston Realtor • Family-Focused • Autism-Aware
As a Houston Realtor for families, I understand that buying or selling a home is a big transition, and there are a lot more moving pieces than just the house. I’m here to make the process feel easier, more personal, and built around what your family actually needs.
And when you work with me, you work directly with me- from our first conversation to closing day.
What Does Home Look Like for Your Family?
Family-Friendly Communities
More space, neighborhood amenities, parks, and communities built around everyday family life.
Schools & Everyday Life
Search with the bigger picture in mind- schools, commute, activities, therapies, routines, and the places your family goes most.
Homes That Fit Differently
Need a quiet room, first-floor bedroom, fenced yard, extra living space, fewer stairs, or something else that matters to your family? Let's build the search around you.
Here for More Than the Move
Buying a Home
A home has to work for more than your budget. I’ll help you consider the space, location, schools, routines, and everyday details that matter to your family.
Selling Your Home
From preparing your home and getting it photo-ready to showings, open houses, negotiations, and closing, I’ll be there with you through it all.
Relocating to Houston
New to Houston? I’ll help you make sense of the neighborhoods, schools, commutes, and everyday life so you can find an area that feels right for your family.
Some Families Need a Different Kind of Home Search
Every family experiences a move differently. For families with children with autism and children who are neurodivergent, changes in routine, school, surroundings, and even the layout of a home can carry extra weight. That’s something I understand personally.
I bring that understanding into the way I help families search- with more patience, more flexibility, and more attention to the everyday details that can make a home truly work for the people living in it.
The Home
Quiet spaces, secure outdoor areas, flexible rooms, first-floor living, or whatever features help your family feel comfortable at home.
The Routine
Commutes, therapies, activities, family support, work, and all the places your week actually revolves around.
The School
Helping you research districts, campuses, programs, transportation, and available resources so you can make an informed decision for your child.
Cypress
Master-planned communities, established neighborhoods, parks, trails, and plenty of options for families looking for more room to grow.
Finding Your Place in Houston
Houston is huge, and choosing where to live can feel like its own home search. I’ll help you look beyond the map at the things that shape everyday life- schools, commute, community, activities, services, and what matters most to your family.
Katy
A huge range of neighborhoods and home styles, with schools, activities, shopping, and everyday conveniences woven into the community.
Richmond & Rosenberg
Growing communities with newer construction, more space, and options for families who want suburban living while staying connected to Houston.
Sugar Land
Established communities, beautiful parks, diverse neighborhoods, and easy access to the everyday places families rely on.

Helping Houston families find a home that fits their real lives.
Every family lives differently, and your home should work for the way yours actually lives. I bring a personal, family-focused approach to Houston real estate, with an understanding of the extra considerations that can come with raising a child with autism.

HOUSTON REALTOR® • LOCAL MOM • FAMILY-FOCUSED • AUTISM-AWARE • HERE TO HELP
Real Estate Built Around Real Life
Your family doesn’t need to fit into a standard home search. Whether you’re buying, selling, or simply figuring out what comes next, I’m here to make the process feel personal, manageable, and built around the way your family actually lives.
NICE TO MEET YOU.
I'm Shannon Torres.
I’m a Houston-area REALTOR®, but I’m also a mom who understands that where your family lives affects so much more than your address. Schools, routines, commutes, support systems, space to decompress, and the little details of everyday life all matter.
That’s why I take the time to understand your family first. Whether you’re buying, selling, or relocating, I’m here to make the process feel more personal, less overwhelming, and built around what actually works for you.
My connection to the autism community is personal, and it has shaped the way I think about home, school, routine, and major transitions. I bring that understanding with me when helping families with children with autism and children who are neurodivergent- while creating that same patient, thoughtful experience for every family I work with.
Ready for your next move?
Whether you’re ready to buy or sell, relocating to Houston, or simply trying to figure out where to begin, I’m here to help. Tell me what’s going on, and we’ll figure out the next step together.
How I Can Help
BUY A HOME
Finding the right home is about more than bedrooms and price. I’ll help you consider the neighborhood, schools, commute, routines, space, and everyday details that matter to your family.
SELL YOUR HOME
Selling is already a big transition. I’ll be there personally to help you prepare your home, get it photo-ready, market it beautifully, navigate showings and offers, and make the move feel more manageable.
RELOCATE TO HOUSTON
Houston is huge, and finding the right area can feel overwhelming. I’ll help you compare neighborhoods, schools, commutes, taxes, services, and everyday life so you can find where your family fits.
Houston, Home & Real Life
My favorite role
Home and family are at the center of my life. Being a mom shapes the patience, flexibility, and perspective I bring to the families I work with.
Family
Because the person you choose to guide your family through a move matters, too. Here’s a little more about the person behind the REALTOR® title.
A Few Things That Matter to Me
Making room for different needs
My connection to the autism community is personal. I care deeply about helping families feel understood, supported, and never like their needs are “too much.”
Advocacy
The city I call home
Houston is more than a market to me. It’s schools, neighborhoods, parks, restaurants, communities, and the everyday places that make life feel like home.
