Daniel Zia is the Founder and CEO of Zia Group, a luxury real estate sales and investment group backed by eXp Realty, the fastest growing real estate company in the world. As the primary Realtor and Broker-Associate for the Zia Group, Daniel has led his team to become the #1 Real Estate Team in the greater Santa Barbara area, selling more homes than any other agent or team. He has been voted the #1 Realtor by both the Santa Barbara Independent and Santa Barbara News-Press Best of Readers Polls, which include the opinions of about 120,000 readers. Most recently, Real Trends and the Wall Street Journal named Zia Group the #1 large Real Estate team in Santa Barbara and Montecito, #14 team in all of California by volume, and #44 team in the nation by volume. This success comes from Daniel's focus on adding value to his clients, rather than pursuing relationships as a means to a sale. He specializes in strategic pricing and marketing to help his sellers achieve the best possible sales price, and provides proprietary negotiation strategies to his buyers, helping them secure their dream homes even in the most competitive markets. Additionally, Daniel is certified as a short sale and foreclosure expert. Daniel sees real estate primarily as a vehicle to impact his community. He uses his real estate expertise to impact families in our community as they pursue their real estate goals. And, his leadership has given Zia Group as a whole a vision for impacting our community. That is why each year Zia Group donates 25% of its profits to nonprofit organizations that are working to support and equip vulnerable women and children in our community. When you choose Zia Group to represent your real estate pursuits, you choose Impact.
