Home > About Loreena Yeo - Realtor® in Frisco TX | Real Estate Agent | Texas  Real Estate Broker

"I believe choosing a real estate agent is an important and personal decision. The information below provides you some insights of what I am like as an individual and what my qualifications are to handle your home sale or purchase. It gives you the information from which to make a knowledgeable decision."  

I am the founder and broker of my company - 3:16 team REALTY, a locally owned and independent real estate brokerage specializing in residential home sales in the greater Frisco TX areas.
 

 
My extensive real estate sales experience begins with serving first time home buyers, buyers, sellers, sellers with financial hardship, buyers relocating to the greater Frisco TX areas and luxury home buyer & seller markets. My company intentionally keeps our geographic areas in which we operate small because we believe that it is the only way to continuously stay on top of our local housing markets.

I am a highly-organized, highly-motivated individual with a positive outlook in business and life. Coming from an engineering background, I work well in a structured environment but I am willing to adapt and stretch beyond my comfort zone, if needed.

Humble Beginnings

Born and raised in Malaysia, I truly appreciate the opportunity to start a new life here in America with my husband over 14 years ago. I believe that opportunity is abundant for those who are willing to work hard and become a contributor to our local community.
 
Before I entered real estate sales in 2003, I was a structural engineer in my corporate America days. So, details and its nitty-gritty matter to me. I pay extraordinary attention and focus to the accuracy of real estate contracts, effective home marketing plans and pride on my extensive market knowledge by keeping the geographical areas I work in manageable. I do not work all over the Dallas metroplex because I believe that it is not a feasible way to thoroughly understand the local market areas. If you are an analytical person yourself, I speak your language. If you are a free-spirit who knows that these things are not to be taken lightly but you do not want to get  involved with too much details, let my strengths work for you.
 

Most detail-oriented people lack the personal and human touch. They get too bogged down with details and they forget the world around them. I find myself with a unique blend of personalities where I am extremely sharing and understanding of people’s emotions and feelings as well as having the ability to bring my clients through a very emotional process in their lives.
 

I have been called the Voice of Reason by my clients. Looking for real estate can be a stressful and emotional season in your life. With wisdom and experience, we can navigate these unchartered territories together.

Priorities First

I am happily married to my best friend, Michael. We met in college, at the University of Oklahoma. Both Michael and I immigrated from Malaysia but have never met prior to school. It took us half a world around to meet. In early 2010, we became American citizens - a dream which took over 20 years to fulfill.

Today, we are blessed with an active (almost) three-year old. Being a mother of an energetic child turned my world upside down but I am constantly adapting to my new lifestyle. I love motherhood and all its challenges it has to offer. Where there are challenges, there also lie opportunities to grow and discover. God and family come first above all else and my career is a blessing to honor God in my daily activities.
 
With a bold conviction of putting faith first and center in not only my personal life and business life as well, I use a holistic approach to everything I do in business and in life.
 

My Personality
 

I am always planning for the future and want to have emotional and financial securities for the future instead of gratification in the present moment. Hard work and focus are what I operate on daily and I believe that there are no shortcuts in success.
 

I am a quiet, introverted, pleasant person who has been thrust into an ever-changing, extroverted sales business where I found the balance to fit in within this business. What may seem lacking in the ‘selling’ area makes up in the ‘knowledge of the market’ area.

I love to give and enrich the lives of those I meet. I might never know how but I always let the opportunity arise by itself.
 

Designations and Education
 

I grew up in a home where education and discipline were strongly emphasized and have carried that attitude into my adulthood and business. I obtained a Bachelor’s degree education from the University of Oklahoma in 1998/99 in Civil Engineering. In 2003, I completed a Master’s of Science education from the University of Texas at Dallas with a degree in Information Technology Management and Consulting.

I am extremely passionate about learning and sharing…and my website is a reflection of that. As a realtor(R) who spends time, energy and effort in learning how to excel for my clients, I focus on educating myself, thus acquiring important real estate designations along the way. While the designations and acronyms may not mean much to consumers, nevertheless it sets one apart from another who may not put as much importance on education and certifications.

Texas Real Estate Broker & Realtor(R)

As a Broker of 3:16 team REALTY, I manage the daily operations of the brokerage firm. When you do business with a Texas Real Estate broker, you work with someone who has more education and knowledge about the real estate business.  

CRS (Certified Residential Specialist) Candidate
Less than 4% of licensed Realtors are Certified Residential Specialists. In order to qualify for this professional designation, a Realtor must bring significant real estate experience, demonstrates volume in real estate transaction as well as completes rigorous educational requirements. I met the production requirements, however I am awaiting to complete my educational portion of this designation. I am set to complete them by 1st Quarter 2010.
 

ASP (Accredited Staging Professional Realtor(R))

Earning the ASP or Accredited Staging Professional designation has provided me with the advanced marketing knowledge required to sell homes faster, and for more money in today's competitive marketplace. As a part of the benefits in selecting me on your team, I am qualified to provide professional home staging advice and recommendations in order to get your home sold as part of my Systematic Home Marketing Approach.
 

ALHS (Accredited Luxury Home Specialist)
In order to qualify to become a member in this select group, only the top local Realtors® that meet the performance and education requirements of the Accredited Luxury Home Specialist or ALHS for this designation. I am proud to be a member of this elite group.

SFR (Short Sale & Foreclosure Resource)

As a Short Sale & Foreclosure Resource Realtor(R), I have pledge to work with distressed Sellers to help them navigate the uncertain areas of short sales or pre-foreclosures, negotiate with lenders for an approval and setting the expectations for buyers and sellers during this process. Emotions are running high in this stage. You do not have to go through this alone.
 

Ultimately, building relationships and uncommon bonds are what most significant in my heart. People matter to me. I am the catalyst to enrich the quality of lives I serve. A home does bring emotional, financial as well as spiritual benefits. It’s serious stuff. I want my presence to leave significance in your real estate transaction.
