Sarena Smith

Property Manager • Leasing Specialist

A former educator with a B.A. in Psychology from San Diego State University, Sarena brings a rare combination of people instincts and process discipline to property management. Credentialed by Texas REALTORS® as both a Property Manager and Leasing Specialist, she approaches every tenant placement and lease with one standard: do it right the first time.

People Skills. Process Discipline. Both.

Sarena grew up in Northern California and made her way to Texas — where she's stayed ever since. Before real estate, she spent years as a 6th grade reading teacher, and that background shows in everything she does: clear communication, genuine patience, and the ability to explain complicated things simply.

She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from San Diego State University, and earned her Texas REALTOR® designations as both a Property Manager (TRPM) and Leasing Specialist (TRLS). She is also a member of the National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM), staying current on industry best practices and market trends in both residential leasing and property management.

Sarena has a sharp eye for market trends and a natural instinct for what owners and tenants both need to feel confident in a transaction. Honest by nature, she doesn't sugarcoat — which is exactly what the people she works with appreciate most.

Outside of work, she's an avid reader — nonfiction, historical fiction, apocalypse fiction, Southern Living, Magnolia — and an active member of the Saginaw Library Boosters, organizing community events to support local library programs for adult and youth literacy.

The Right Tenant, Every Time

Sarena specializes in the full leasing cycle — from marketing vacant properties and qualifying applicants to executing leases and managing move-in coordination. She understands that placing the right tenant is the single most important decision in property management, and she treats it that way.

Her proactive communication style keeps tenants informed and owners confident.
