Biography :
A REALTOR® since 1999 and a broker since 2012, Carol Drake’s areas of expertise run from luxury properties and residences to farms, ranches and undeveloped acreages, especially in and around Conroe, The Woodlands, and Magnolia, where she moved in 1998.
“Negotiation of offers and contracts are the aspects of the business I
enjoy most and do extremely well,” says Carol, who brings over a decade’s
experience in leadership, coaching and training to the table in every deal. She
prioritizes her clients’ wants and needs, focuses on them with her deep
knowledge of the market, and then proceeds with tenacity, honesty, integrity
and consistency. If Carol says it, she will do it.
Before entering the real estate field, Carol owned and operated her own
gourmet food brokerage, supplying tasty treats to both small retailers and the
likes of Central Market and Neiman-Marcus. In her 12 years as a fine food
purveyor, she learned to handle people from all walks of life, quickly adapt to
unknown situations, and fine-tune her initiative. “Both careers take a
self-starter type of person who makes things happen and doesn’t wait to see if
things will happen,” she says.
Carol enjoys travel, exercise, music, theater, cooking, sewing and raising
cattle and horses. She speaks Spanish and has worked with the United Way’s
Women Who Rock campaign, assisting young mothers who wish to further their
educations.
Carol is a founding member of the Magnolia Education Foundation and a member
of The Woodlands Country Club. Of her many accolades and achievements,
she remains proudest of her children.
