Meet Randal Shinn

Real estate isn't just my career — it's part of my heritage. As the son of Bob Shinn, who founded our family business in 1967, I've had the privilege of growing up in the world of real estate right here in eastern Collin County. From earning my license in 1978 to graduating from Texas A&M with a degree in Agricultural Economics and a minor in Real Estate Appraisal, I've dedicated my life to helping others find their place in the country, just like my family has done for generations.
