Terri Cox

There is just something about her! To get the inside scoop on real estate legend Terri Cox, it would take a reporter all day and night. Fortunately, her clients and colleagues were able to share plenty of insights on this one-of-a-kind professional.

Reaching the pinnacle of success as the No. 2 individual producer in 2016 at Allie Beth Allman & Associates, the market leader in luxury real estate, illustrates perfectly the can-do winning attitude that radiates from Cox. Here's how others describe her: contagious, committed, courageous, and client-centered with clear business acumen. She really knows real estate. She cares, and it shows.

Cox began her career in commercial real estate and property management in 1985, moving to residential sales at Ellen Terry, REALTORS in 1995. In her first year, Cox sold millions of dollars in real estate and was awarded the Rookie of the Year Spirit Award. She was also Ellen Terry's first recipient of the highly regarded Service with a Heart Award. In 2007, she joined Allie Beth Allman & Associates where she is an executive vice president, a position earned through leadership and achieving consistent high sales volume. Her career continues to soar.

What is it about her? Charisma? A sixth sense? It is much more than that. Cox is an authentic individual who is in a unique place to empathize with her clients' real-life experiences. Widowed at an early age and the now-single parent of a dynamic 16-year-old, courage and commitment stand out among the best of her character qualities. She meets life and business head on with courageous perseverance, maintaining a fully orchestrated, high-performance schedule–up at 5 a.m. (no kidding), committed all day long to helping her clients achieve their real estate dreams.

Whether her clients are going modern in Preston Hollow, living the unhurried Lakewood lifestyle, or gaining space for a growing family in the Park Cities, Terri Patrick Cox is the consummate real estate pro. After hearing Cox's story, it is not surprising that she is one of this year's top producers.
