The Silva Empire
We’re Michael and Beth Silva —partners in business, in life, and in the belief that the most meaningful success comes from surrounding ourselves with the founders, the doers, and the synergies that shape Houston. Over the past decade, we’ve built a multi-faceted, highly sought-after real estate company that touches every stage of the homeownership journey—spanning construction, brokerage, investment, design, and more.
What began as a shared passion for real estate and design has evolved into a nationally recognized portfolio of brands. Together, we’ve built Harvard Homes , an award-winning custom construction company; Happen Houston , a forward-thinking real estate brokerage; Six Two One , a direct-to-seller investment arm; and Twine Society , a curated collection of luxury short-term rentals in Fredericksburg.
Each brand plays a unique role—but all are designed to work in sync. Today, we guide clients through every phase of the real estate lifecycle with a model that fosters long-term relationships and measurable success.
From leasing and first-time buying to custom building and high-return investing, we house the entire ecosystem under one roof. Whether we’re consulting with sellers on how to prepare their homes for the market, connecting buyers with exclusive off-market opportunities, or building dream homes from the ground up, we bring a proven system dedicated to making every real estate and design experience seamless.
Why It Matters
As the only Houston duo selected to host a dedicated show on American Dream TV, we’re bringing national exposure to the city’s most compelling founders, developers, and design-forward thinkers.
The Houston Collective offers rare access to the homes, businesses, and visionaries shaping one of the fastest-growing cities in the country—from once-in-a-lifetime architectural gems to the conversations happening in private boardrooms, curated boutiques, and design studios.
We feature the elite and the essential—from record-breaking developers and pro athletes to local restaurateurs and rising architects. The people who aren’t just living in Houston—they’re building it, investing in it, and pushing it forward.
This is where high performance meets high impact.
Where connection leads, and culture follows.
Where real estate meets media, design, and community.
Whether you’re a sponsor looking to align with a trusted voice, a developer with a story worth showcasing, or a guest shaping Houston in your own way—this is your platform.

Be Seen. Be Shared. Be Part of It.
A Platform with Power
Before our first episode airs, the numbers speak for themselves. With 18 million views, 21 million impressions, and millions more in reach and engagement, American Dream TV is already capturing attention nationwide. And The Houston Collective is next.
Beyond the Feature
Every guest, partner, or brand we feature walks away with more than just screen time. You’ll have access to high-production video content you can use across your own platforms—plus the credibility of being featured on an Emmy-nominated, nationally recognized show.
We’ve created a space where real estate, culture, and connection converge—and where every guest leaves with the kind of visibility that keeps opening doors.
