Layton Lowry

Layton is a Vice President at NRG Realty Group, where he specializes in real estate across shale play markets throughout the country, with a particular focus on serving companies in the oil and gas, oilfield services, and broader energy sectors. Since joining NRG in March 2020, Layton has been involved in transactions totaling more than $125,000,000 in value, representing clients across acquisitions, dispositions, lease transactions, development projects, build-to-suit assignments, and investment opportunities.

Layton’s interest in real estate began well before his professional career, influenced largely by his dad and grandfathers and their involvement in real estate. That early exposure developed into a broader interest in the business and transactional side of the industry and ultimately helped shape his career path. Today, as part of NRG’s energy-focused real estate platform, he works closely with clients to understand not only their immediate real estate needs, but also the operational and business objectives behind them.

A graduate of Texas Christian University, Layton earned a Bachelor of Science in Political Science and Pre-Law Studies before earning his Juris Doctor from Oklahoma City University School of Law. During law school, he found himself increasingly drawn to the transactional side of business and real estate. Although he ultimately decided to pursue a career in real estate, his legal education continues to play an important role in his professional approach. The critical thinking, analytical reasoning, reading comprehension, written communication, negotiation, and contract skills developed in law school all provide a valuable foundation that he draws upon daily in his work.

Outside of work, Layton and his wife, Ashley, enjoy spending time with their Bernese Mountain Dog, Benzo, family and friends, traveling, and being outdoors.
