    About Daniel Zia

    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.

    Jorden went above and beyond helping me find the right new home for me in Santa Barbara. Very responsive and organized, Jorden was a tremendous help trying to me since I was also trying to purchase a property while living in another state. I leaned on Jorden for his local knowledge and expertise. He exceeded my expectations!!

    Lynda was thoughtful and resourceful throughout our entire experience with her. As first-time homebuyers, we needed a lot of education throughout the process. Lynda took the time to walk us through every step of the process. She worked endlessly to make sure we felt prepared and secured to make the biggest transaction of our lives thus far. We would recommend her to anyone in the SB area looking to purchase their home. We couldn't have asked for anything more from her! S

    Alexander Stoeber is phenomenal. As my buyer's agent in a highly competitive Santa Barbara market with low inventory, Alex tapped his deep contact list to find a phenomenal off-market vacation property, then initiated a quick offer and handled all the complex paperwork. Alex is patient and responsive, always willing to help, and he invested substantial time in my success. I found his professionalism really shines when you work with him closely. He engages in a personal way that inspires confidence, identifies critical issues and raises them fairly, and knows when to step aside and let others do the talking. His team, Zia Group and EXP Realty, are the best real estate team in the greater Santa Barbara area, and Megan Phillips the Transaction Coordinator handled all the details smoothly. Five Stars out of Five.

    Trying to buy a home during the height of the market with low inventory was a frightening undertaking, but Todd made the journey so much more comforting. Todd worked with my family and me to outline our goals, budget, and vision to find me a perfect home in a great area of town. Todd also worked extremely closely with my mortgage broker directly to make sure that I had everything in order to make closing as seamless as possible. Todd was a joy to work with, and made the process easy and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a realtor in the Santa Barbara area. Thank you Todd for all of your help and I look forward to working with you again on the next one!
