The Quick Version

Emily Shumpert Realtor® | Sales Agent

I'm an apartment locator and Sales Agent with Apex One Realty Group, based in Houston. I grew up in Round Rock, Texas, so I'm a lifelong Texan, and Houston is where I've put down roots as an adult. I'm also a proud Aggie, class of 2013.

Although I'm based in Houston, I personally tour properties all over Austin, San Antonio, and DFW so I know firsthand what each property offers and can match my clients with the right fit. I also film all of the content you see on our social media pages myself.

Before getting into real estate, I spent over 10 years working in apartment management. That background matters. I've seen the leasing process from the inside, so I know what actually makes a property a good fit for someone, not just what looks good in photos. I understand floor plans, application requirements, what to ask a leasing office, and the kind of details that end up mattering once you actually move in.

I became a licensed real estate agent in 2021, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know my clients and figuring out what they really need, whether that's a first apartment, a move across town, or a move to a whole new city. I work on a more personal level than most apartment locators. You're not just another name on a list to me. I want every client to feel like a priority, not a transaction. My goal is simple: make the search easier and help you land somewhere that actually works for your life.

Life outside the office

When I'm not helping clients find their perfect place, you can find me exploring new destinations, spending time with my husband Sean, and tending to my garden. I love trying out new restaurants around Houston, and I'm all in during college football season. I'm also a big F1 fan, always tuned in for race day. At home, I'm outnumbered by pets: my dogs Kota and Bonnie, and my cats Moo and Peanut, keep things lively.

How I Work

What you can expect from me

A real conversation first

Before I send a single listing, I want to understand your budget, your commute, and your deal-breakers.

Curated, not overwhelming

You'll get a short, relevant list — not fifty tabs to sort through on your own.

Honest advice

If a property isn't a fit for you, I'll say so — even if it means a longer search.

Let's find your next place

Free, personal, and usually a same-week turnaround.
