Rob Grainger was born and raised in Houston, Texas and is a 4th generation landowner
in Washington County, just outside of Brenham. In his youth, Rob would spend every
opportunity at their Mayfair Ranch receiving a hands-on education in ranching and
wildlife while working alongside his family. This opportunity and the various leases his
family held in South Texas instilled a deep desire to pursue a career in Ranch
Management and Real Estate. Rob studied wildlife biology and rangeland ecology at
Texas A&M University and moved to Corpus Christi shortly after graduation in 2009.
This move was to pursue his career as the Ranch and Wildlife Operations Manager for
the Dallas-based Jones family on their landholdings and leases in Texas, Kansas, and
Missouri. In 2013 Rob obtained his Real Estate license to pursue farm and ranch real
estate while managing the Jones’ rural lands. He feels very fortunate to be able to both
manage the Jones’ family land assets while also focusing on his real estate career.
Rob also owns and operates Grainger Ranch Recruiting, LLC, placing high-end
employees on farms and ranches throughout the United States. With Rob’s varied
experiences across nearly all facets of rural land ownership, he is exceptionally qualified
to assist buyers and sellers in their farm and ranch transactions. Outside of Real Estate,
he is well versed and practiced in the fields of wildlife management, brush management,
ranch budgeting, capitalizing on ranch revenue streams, staffing, improvements, and
operations.
Rob joined the Republic Ranches team in 2017 and has brokered over 85,000 acres in
rural lands since joining the team. Although he has a hard time choosing his favorite
transaction, the sales of the 7,500-acre Compadres Ranch in Brooks County, the 2,500
acre Papalote Ranch in Bee County and the 2,900-acre 4S Ranch in La Salle County
are among his top three favorite representations.
He lives in Corpus Christi, TX with his wife Georgia and sons Robert and Mitchell. They
attend the Church of the Good Shepherd and serve the church at varying capacities.
Rob also sits on the board of 2 outdoor industry businesses and serves on the Board of
Halo Flight, Inc. Rob is also a member of the Corpus Christi Country Club.
Rob is licensed in Texas.
