Susan Horak

Susan Horak enjoys her work; you don’t stay in a profession for over 30 years without a passion for it. Having seen 5000+ closing transactions, she is the #1 buyers and listing agent, constantly leading Columbia’s real estate market. As such, she has helped more buyers and sellers to realize the American dream of home ownership than anyone else. With her experience, she effortlessly steps up to bat when clients are thrown a curve. Susan attributes her success to a strong background in retail, marketing, and grassroots political campaigning, with the keystone being education. She relishes the opportunity to learn and is thrilled when offered a chance to teach. While studying Political Science at the University of Missouri, she became actively involved in politics, & served as president of Missouri Student Services and finance chair of the Missouri Student Association. A proud member of the College Republicans organization, she landed her first campaign internship with an unlikely mentor, Democratic Congressman Ike Skelton. Susan’s favorite subjects at MU involved advertising, campaigning, and negotiation. She first applied these skills while working at and managing Gibson’s, a downtown Columbia clothing store. Susan realized her commitment to business involved long hours, hard work and perseverance - habits she continues to exhibit in her field today.
