About Us
Neighborhood Renovation Company, LLC is owned and operated by Mark and Evelyn Cambria.
In 2007, we began buying and renovating single family homes in the Houston area for use as rental property. The enterprise has evolved from a retirement strategy to a growing business involving the purchase, rehab, sale, and/or rental of several properties per month.
​
Flipping houses allows us to help more sellers of unwanted property, providing more opportunity for growth and more business for the many people we work with. We have developed a particular expertise at identifying and rehabbing fixer uppers that can be bought at a discount and resold or turned into good rental property.
​
​This expertise helps us to offer competitive prices to sellers of fixer uppers and to reassure our partners and lenders that we know exactly what repairs to make, how much those repairs will cost, and what to rent or sell the renovated property for.
​
Mark Cambria has over 30 years of experience in Real Estate. He began by personally renovating older homes as a Real Estate Agent, Broker, and Investor in Homewood, Alabama, a suburb of Birmingham. Two of his renovated homes were featured in Southern Living magazine. He owned and operated a small real estate brokerage, buying and renovating numerous properties for resale and contracting with clients to renovate their homes.
​
​
Evelyn Cambria has over 20 years of experience as a Corporate Controller and is currently the Chief Financial Officer for a non-profit institution.

Over the past several years, the Cambrias have leveraged their renovation experience and financial management expertise to build a rental property portfolio of single family homes in Charlotte, North Carolina, and the Houston, Texas market area.
