About Me
Howdy, I'm Niyi, a Texas A&M Engineering graduate and owner of Grand Welcome Houston. I worked in the Construction, Oil & Gas, and Tech Industries for over 15 years. During those years, I travelled to multiple countries, experienced different cultures and stayed in various types of accommodations, and noticed the tiny details that made my stay great, or otherwise. As I thought of creative ways to provide quality service, my interest in hospitality grew, and eventually led me to vacation rental property management.
At Grand Welcome Houston, we value our relationship with the community. We enjoy helping homeowners achieve their property goals while we provide their guests with a boutique-like experience. I have an amazing team excited to serve you!
What I Love About Houston
My family and I enjoy exploring our favorite local eats around Houston, seeing a movie at one of the city’s outdoor movie theaters or enjoying a football or basketball game at one of Houston’s sports stadiums. When I'm not working, you can find me playing squash or tennis, or planning my next high thrill adventure.
