Real Estate Broker
$1/2 Billion Success Story
With over 25 years
of experience, Sissy Lappin is one of the most experienced residential
brokers in the business. She has successfully marketed over 1/2 of a billion
dollars (that's right
— a billion dollars) in real estate.
Sissy began her career in the mid-80’s, when the real estate industry was in the midst of one of the worst recessions this country had seen. Always one to see a challenge as a time of opportunity, Sissy joined Century Development Corporation: one of the most active real estate development firms in the country, where her marketing intuition led her to become the youngest vice president of the corporation. After leaving Century, she formed Lappin Properties, which specializes in designing, developing, and executing marketing programs for large residential projects.
A proud native Houstonian, Sissy has been recognized as a market leader and top producer in the Houston area for over 25 years; she has earned the highest level of trust and respect from her peers in the industry as well as her clients. From the beginning of her career, she has served her clients' best interests with independent thinking and a cutting-edge perspective on the real estate market. She has a uniquely personal touch: it's an honor and pleasure for her to earn the trust of the people she works with, representing them in the purchase or sale of their most important and expensive assets. Sissy’s success is defined by her commitment and dedication to a gold standard of one-on-one service. She brings years of experience, a deep knowledge of the market, excellent negotiating skills and expertise in all steps of the process to every single client and transaction.
Sissy has worked for large real estate firms, and has been offered serveral positions for current industry leaders. However, she knew from the beginning that, as a specialty broker, she could put her extraordinary leadership and entrepreneurial skills to a better, unique use. The fact is: many firms offer their agents a higher commission if they sell one of their own listings. But Sissy has no such agenda in her business, and as a result, the client's needs always come first. Where most real estate agents have a 20% referral rate, Sissy’s rate has been at 80% for years. Her secret to success is this relentless striving for only the best for herself and her clients.
