I’m Robert Villanueva, a bilingual real estate broker and owner at Surge Realty, advising buyers, sellers, investors, and developers across Texas.

Licensed since 2016. Multimillion-dollar producer known for speed, strategy, and results. Robert Villanueva is a bi-lingual Texas real estate broker with his own firm, Surge Realty. Raised in Queens New York and now living in Houston TX, Robert has an effective combination of Southern charisma and East Coast tenacity. These traits lend him an upper hand in all facets he oversees in residential rea

l estate, including building and selling new developments, rehabs, and maintenance of invested properties in Texas. Speaking to his tenacity, Robert became a multimillion-dollar producer and broker within four years as a licensed Texas real estate agent. A recurring theme from his stellar 5-star client reviews detail Robert’s quick response time, professionalism, knowledge of the real estate market, and his highly personable communication skills. From humble beginnings to obtaining a BA in Media Studies from Queens College, Robert’s career started in video production. His video production assets proved valuable in promoting and selling multiple properties and investments he oversaw for his brother, during his NBA tenure, including properties in New York, Michigan, and Florida. Robert’s background playing college ball and his brother Charlie’s NBA career helped garner him employment with ESPN, Fox Sports Detroit, where he developed continued relationships with athletes and TV personalities along the way. Thanks to continually adapted skills, Robert is well versed in branding, marketing, advertising, and social media. Robert is proud to now call Texas home and being 100% Dominican with Spanish fluency allowed a seamless transition to Houston TX. Having lived in several different states, Robert views Houston the most culturally diverse and awards its top rank for best food. Taking his love of food next-level Robert invested in Kulture (from renowned owner of famed Breakfast Klub), a salient southern fusion restaurant in the heart of downtown Houston steeped in (you guessed it) culture!

Being a leader often means stepping away, even while everything around you keeps moving. It’s in those quiet, unseen moments that you reset, gather your thoughts, and find your strength again. Sometimes you’re faced with challenges without warning and in that solitude, you decide how to rise, how to respond, and how to lead forward.

Not everyone will understand those moments, but they’re where growth happens. They’re where clarity is built.

This image speaks volumes… if you know, you know.

Our first ever 2026 Retreat and what a weekend it was.

From powerful educational sessions to unforgettable moments of connection, this retreat was all about growing together, sharpening our craft, and celebrating the people who make Surge what it is. We mixed business with a little fun, great wine, incredible meals prepared by a private chef , and the perfect backdrop of beautiful Fredericksburg weather.

More than anything, this weekend reminded me how special this group is. The energy, the collaboration, and the drive in this room is exactly why we continue to elevate ⚡️

Celebrating the sweetest blessing on the way 👶

Today we gathered at to shower my beautiful niece and her growing family with love. Surrounded by family, laughter, and so many well wishes, it was the perfect way to celebrate the little bundle of joy that will soon be joining us.

We can’t wait to meet you, little one! 🍼

Realtor Hack Most Agents Don’t Use 👇

Bring a small ball to your next showing.

Place it on the floor.

If it rolls, the floor may not be level.
If it stays, the floor is likely level.

Try it throughout the home including the second floor.

This little hack could save your client from buying a property that might cost them thousands later in foundation repairs.

And it’ll definitely make you look good as an agent.

Thank me later 😆

Happy 80th Birthday to the man, the legend, my Pops.

The man with genes stronger than anyone I know, passed down to his kids and grandkids.

The man who gave me my charisma and high-energy personality.

The man who first put me on to real estate and since then, I’ve never looked back.

The man who built the foundation of faith and God in me at a young age.

Today we celebrate 80 incredible years of wisdom, strength, and love. Being in NYC with the whole family, all the kids and grandkids in the building made this moment even more special.

Happy 80th Birthday, Pops. We’re blessed to celebrate you today and always. Cheers to many more. 🥂

The Story...

Robert Villanueva is a bi-lingual Texas real estate agent with HomeAgent Brokerage Firm. Raised in Queens New York and now living in Houston TX, Robert has an effective combination of Southern charisma and East Coast tenacity. These traits lend him an upper hand in all facets he oversees in Texas residential real estate, including: building and selling new developments, rehabs, and maintenance of investment properties in Houston and Dallas. Robert is excited to bring this expertise in real estate to his clients. A recurring theme from his stellar 5-star client reviews details Robert's quick response time, professionalism, knowledge of the real estate market and his highly personable communication skills. From humble beginnings to obtaining a BA in Media Studies from Queens College, Robert's career started in video production. Robert's background playing college ball and his brother Charlie's NBA career helped garner his employment with ESPN, Fox Sports Detroit and Tivity Social where he developed continued relationships with athletes and TV personalities along the way. Thanks to skills adapted at Tivity Social, Robert is well versed in branding, marketing, advertising, and social media. Robert's knowledge in video production has been valuable in promoting and selling multiple properties and investments he oversaw for his brother, during his NBA tenure, including properties in New York, Michigan, and Florida. Robert's most important mission is giving back, something of a family trait. His brother Charlie was diagnosed with Alopecia at the age of 10. Acknowledging the effects of Alopecia on Charlie and so many others, Robert allocates free time helping spread the movement What Is Alopecia? Across his journey, Robert is proud to now call Texas home. 100% Dominican and fluent in Spanish, Robert found Houston Texas to be a smooth transition. Having lived in several different states, Robert views Houston the most culturally diverse and awards it top rank for best food. Robert recently took his love of food next level and invested in Kulture (from renowned owner of famed The Breakfast Klub), a salient southern fusion restaurant in the heart of downtown Houston steeped in (you guessed it) culture!
