“We are in the people business, we just happen to sell real estate.” —Alex Salazar

From the moment you walk into the office doors of The Salazar Group, you will feel like you are at home, not an office. When Alex Salazar first started his real estate group in September of 2019 and opened an office in Madera, CA, he wanted to give that very feel because it is truly how he has run his business for over 17 years, with a personal and homey touch, putting the people first. As a member of the Planning Commission himself and group member Lucy Salazar on the local school board, the group values their local community and strives to help make it a better place for all who live there, through their personal dedication to the community and real estate services.

One of the most impressionable parts of The Salazar Group is that they not only value their clients but each other as group members.  Alex explained that when he brought on Kirsten Sainz, his admin and transaction coordinator, he did not feel right asking her to send her son, Ezekiel, off to daycare.  Instead, he set up a daycare room in the office just for Ezekiel, with his own plaque on the door that reads “Agent in Training”.  By doing so and getting to see Ezekiel each day, Alex explains it is a reinforcing reminder that in their group, they truly value family. 

This core belief stems from where Alex began his career in real estate, in the family. Growing up, he was taught strong work ethics from his mother and father.  Both parents worked in the fields and always worked hard.  They taught Alex and the rest of his family to work hard and play hard.  He has fond memories of working hard during the weekend, but then getting to enjoy a movie together that evening.  

Lucy Salazar, Realtor at The Salazar Group

His mother and group member, Lucy Salazar, was the first in the family to start a career in real estate in 1999. As a high schooler, Alex began working for her doing repairs, staging, putting signs up, and assisting in any other way needed.  After Alex graduated high school, he went right on to get his real estate license and has been a Realtor ever since, for now over 17 years.  Today, he and his mother still work together.  They’ve been through the thick and thin together, making it through two recessions, but he knows that together they can do anything. 

In 2019, Alex decided to start what he had been envisioning for years, to start his own real estate group. The Salazar Group, powered by RE/MAX Gold, is 13 members strong and one of the top producers of RE/MAX Gold Nation. As a group, Alex enjoys motivating his agents through quotes, fitness, and more, ultimately helping them to become better people.  Alex teaches his group that they are always real estate agents.  To be a better agent, you have to be a better person. He explained that when you’re in the people business, you have to always be a people person and put your clients first.  He loves working with his clients to help make their personal and financial lives better, and in turn teaching his agents how to best serve their clients.

Hosted by RISMedia and National Association of REALTORS® on April 8, 2021, Alex joined panelists from accross the country to share his knowlege and expertise about “Creating an Engaging Online Presence with Social Media”.

Alex looks forward to what the future holds for him and his group.  “I don’t feel we are successful, but we are succeeding.  We are not at the end, we are constantly growing,” Alex explained.  He has been pleased with the partnership he has made with RE/MAX Gold after he met with manager Rip Hovde. He has appreciated the personal relationship and attention he has received from the partnership, the same feeling so many agents with RE/MAX Gold Nation share.
