Sherry Campbell is the founder and designated broker of Energy Realty, an independent real estate brokerage in west Houston with offices in the Energy Corridor and in Katy. She holds Texas broker license 405210, she is a working broker who still represents buyers and sellers, and she built the brokerage around a specific idea: that the families and executives moving to Houston for the energy industry, many of them from other countries, deserved a brokerage that understood relocation from the inside.

That is the short answer. The longer answer is what this page is for, because the question people are really asking when they type her name is not biographical. It is whether the broker on the other end of the call understands the specific problem they have: a two-year assignment and a lease that has to work before a purchase does, a home purchase from another country, a subdivision that sits inside a reservoir flood pool, a tax rate that swings a full percentage point between two streets. West Houston is not one market. It is a corridor of employers, a set of master-planned communities with their own utility districts, six independent cities that most newcomers assume are Houston neighborhoods, and a flood history that is street by street. Expertise here is not a title. It is knowing which of those things applies to the house in front of you.

Where does she actually work?

Two offices, and the distinction matters because they sit on opposite ends of the market she serves. The Energy Corridor office is at 1111 Eldridge Parkway, Suite 200, Houston 77077, in the middle of the district where bp, Shell, ConocoPhillips, Baker Hughes, CITGO and McDermott keep their Houston campuses. The Katy office is at 23033 Grand Circle Boulevard, Suite 150-B, Katy 77449, at the edge of the master-planned communities where a large share of relocating families end up buying.

Those two addresses describe the brokerage’s working geography better than any list of neighborhoods could. The Energy Corridor is where the jobs are and where a newly arrived family often leases first. Katy, Memorial and the neighborhoods along Memorial Drive and Eldridge Parkway are where they buy when the assignment turns permanent. Energy Realty’s own neighborhood guides cover the Energy Corridor, Katy, Memorial, Cinco Ranch, Barkers Landing, Briarhills and Meadowbriar, Fleetwood, Green Trails, Lakes of Parkway, Nottingham Forest and Wilchester, Parkway Villages, Terraces on Memorial, The Villages and the Heights, which is the map of that lease-then-buy pattern drawn as a list.

The phone numbers differ by office: (281) 679-6266 for the Energy Corridor and (346) 307-7464 for Katy. The brokerage email is info@energy-realty.com and Sherry’s direct line is (281) 797-7892.

How did Energy Realty come to exist?

The brokerage’s origin is best told in her words, because she has written it down more than once. After more than ten years abroad following her husband’s career, she wrote in 2022, “in 2004, I found myself in Houston and decided that it was time to venture into the real estate profession again while my children were at school.” What started as a part-time job while the children were in school became a full-time career, then a decision: “My vision of Energy Realty was simple. Someone needed to open an office on Eldridge Parkway, and one day I decided that would be me.”

The idea behind the brokerage was narrower than “sell houses.” She wanted to build, in her words, “a small brokerage where I trained agents to be professionals rather than knock on doors,” and to be prominent in the Energy Corridor specifically. Before opening her own brokerage she had been a top producer at RE/MAX and Keller Williams, according to her profiles with the Houston Relocation Network and the Top 100 Real Estate Agents directory, and had been recognized as a Five Star Real Estate Agent starting in 2011.

On the dates: her own site states that she “established Energy Realty in 2012.” A January 2024 press release and her 2024 Houston Agent Magazine profile give 2004 as the founding year, which is the year she returned to real estate in Houston. The Texas Real Estate Commission issued the current corporate broker license to Sherry Campbell & Associates I on October 31, 2018. Those are three different milestones rather than a contradiction: the year she started selling, the year she opened the Eldridge Parkway office, and the year the current corporate entity was licensed. The Katy office followed; in March 2022 she wrote that she was “preparing to open a second office in Katy,” and it is open today.

Two more decisions shaped the brokerage as it exists now. In 2021 Energy Realty partnered with the technology platform Side, and in January 2024 it left that arrangement and partnered with Blok, which she described at the time as “the opportunity to grow my brokerage under my own rules again.” The brokerage’s stated plan in that announcement was to expand toward 150 agents across three to five offices over five years. In November 2024 Renée Eads joined to lead a formal relocation program, and in March 2025 the Commission licensed a second entity, Energy Realty Legacy, LLC, with Sherry Campbell as its designated broker.

What does the record say, and what does it not say?

Here is the production and reputation record with the windows attached, because a figure without its window is how a page like this gets discredited. The third-party numbers come first, because they are the ones anyone can check.

What this page deliberately leaves out: any ranking that names a publisher we could not verify. The brokerage’s site references a RealTrends 2024 volume ranking and a set of “top team” badges on its recruiting page. Until the exact list, category, rank and year are in hand from the publisher, they are not repeated here, and they are not in this page’s structured data. That is a choice about how a professional record should be stated, not a judgment about the underlying awards.

What does she demonstrably know about this market?

The clearest evidence is what the brokerage publishes. Since April 2015 the Energy Realty blog has carried 238 posts, and every month of 2026 so far has opened with a market update signed by Sherry Campbell as broker and owner. Those updates are not generic. The August 2026 edition, for instance, reports that in some areas of Katy homes are taking longer to sell than in recent years, that the luxury segment is moving faster than mid-priced homes in certain areas, that leases between roughly $2,500 and $4,000 a month are moving at a healthier pace than the upper rental tiers, and that the brokerage is seeing fewer oil and gas companies relocating employees to Houston with the large rental budgets that historically supported the high end of the leasing market. That is a broker reading her own book of business out loud, and it is the kind of observation a portal cannot make.

Three lanes run through everything the brokerage does:

• Relocation, domestic and international. Her HAR biography puts it plainly: “Having lived in other countries through my husband’s career, I have a personal insight into the needs of people relocating from other countries.” Houston Agent Magazine’s 2015 profile names her as a co-founder of the Houston Relocation Network. The brokerage’s relocation program is now led by a Relocation Director with four relocation designations, and its site describes the classic energy-sector pattern of lease first, buy later, as the business it was built for.
• International buyers and the mechanics that trip them up. Energy Realty partners with Advancial Federal Credit Union on financing for foreign nationals and publishes a vendor list, the Orange List, for lending, insurance and relocation services. The team’s own bios name agents from Venezuela, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, El Salvador, Iran, Scotland, England and Canada, and languages including Spanish, Portuguese, French, Farsi and Lebanese Arabic.
• The full lifecycle of a relocated household. Leasing on arrival, purchase when the assignment extends, property management if the family is transferred out again and keeps the house, staging and resale when they finally sell. The property management arm, Energy Realty Management, describes much of its book as homes owned by people on work assignments.

Her own community footprint sits in the same geography: she has served as president of the Memorial Thicket Women’s Association and on the PTO boards of Barbara Bush Elementary and West Briar Middle School, and the brokerage raised money for the I Love Venezuela Foundation at the first Energy Corridor International Festival in 2019 and has donated staged furniture to the Houston Furniture Bank.

Who else carries the brokerage’s expertise?

A brokerage with more than 30 licensed agents is not one person, and the three people below are the ones whose lanes a relocating client is most likely to need. Each has a profile on energy-realty.com.

Renée Eads, Relocation Director

Renée Eads leads Energy Realty’s relocation program. The brokerage describes her as having more than 25 years in residential real estate and nearly two decades specializing in relocation, and her Texas sales agent license was first issued in May 1999. She holds the Certified Relocation Professional (CRP), Global Mobility Specialist (GMS), Global Relocation Professional (GRP) and Specialist in Global Destination Services (S-GDS) designations, has served on educational panels at national relocation conventions, and was Vice Chair and later Chair of the LeadingRE Advisory Council. Houston Agent Magazine reported her joining Energy Realty in November 2024 to lead a new relocation program. She grew up moving between states from Connecticut and spent a decade as a travel agent before real estate, which is the kind of background that tends to produce someone who notices the detail everyone else missed.

Sam Jaoude, REALTOR and Certified International Property Specialist

Sam Jaoude works with clients moving to and from the United States. He came to real estate after a 25-year corporate career, works across both commercial and residential transactions, has lived in Houston for nearly 36 years, and speaks English, Lebanese Arabic and French. He has served on the City of Houston Mayor’s Advisory Council on International Communities since 2013 and received a City of Houston Proclamation from Mayor Sylvester Turner for his service to the city’s international communities.

Amber Hill, Property Manager

Amber Hill runs the property management side under the Energy Realty Management name. A native Houstonian, she earned her real estate license in December 2021 and began in property management that year. The brokerage describes many of the owners she works for as people who relocated for work and kept their Houston home, which is exactly the client a relocation brokerage produces when an assignment ends. Operations run on Buildium with owner and tenant portals, and the brokerage’s published terms include monthly statements, direct deposit of rent on the fifth of each month, annual inspections and security deposits held in a separate escrow account as Texas law requires.

What should a buyer or renter arriving in west Houston expect?

Expect the conversation to start with the assignment rather than the house. How long is the posting, who is paying for what, and does the household want to lease first? The honest answer for a two- or three-year assignment is often a lease, and Energy Realty treats that lease as the beginning of the relationship rather than a lesser transaction; the office record on HAR shows more rented listings than sold ones.

Expect the Houston-specific questions to be raised before you ask them. Whether a subdivision lies within the Addicks or Barker reservoir flood pool. What the seller’s disclosure has to say about flooding and what it does not have to say. Why one Katy subdivision’s tax rate is a full point higher than the next because of its municipal utility district, and how to read the district notice a seller must give you before you sign. What no zoning means for the lot next door. Those are the topics the brokerage’s guides cover, and they are linked below.

Expect the transaction to be run by a Texas brokerage in the Texas way. The Information About Brokerage Services form comes at first substantive contact, the Consumer Protection Notice is linked in the site footer, and the broker of record on every document is Sherry Campbell.

What should a west Houston seller expect?

A pricing conversation grounded in the market update she publishes every month rather than in the number the seller had in mind in January. Her August 2026 note says it directly: every home can sell at the right price, and that price may not be the one the seller expected at the start of the year. Expect staging to be raised early; the brokerage runs an in-house staging service and has written that a buyer’s market has brought staging back as a necessity rather than an option. Expect the international network to be part of the marketing, because a relocation brokerage’s buyer pool includes people who have not landed in Houston yet.

If the seller is the one relocating out, expect a second conversation: whether to sell at all, or to keep the home under management until the assignment ends. That is a question most brokerages cannot answer from inside one company. This one can, which is the point of the structure.

How does the brokerage work?

Energy Realty is independent. It is not a franchise and it does not carry a national brand’s name, which the brokerage frames as a deliberate choice: “Boutique does not mean limited. It means intentional.” Since 2024 it has operated on the Blok platform for its website, marketing and agent tools, and its recruiting page lists Follow Up Boss, MoxiPresent and a custom agent portal as the working stack. The training philosophy has been consistent in every interview for a decade: “I train agents to be professionals, not to knock on doors,” and, from her 2021 profile, “It’s easy to get a license, but it takes a lot of work, reading and training to become a professional.”

The stated standard for clients is the one she gave Houston Agent Magazine in 2023: “Under promise and over deliver.” The brand line is less formal. Orange is the new sold, and the signs are orange.
