Meet Raul Arriaga

We had the good fortune of connecting with Raul Arriaga and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Raul, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
When I decided to start my own business as a real estate agent 20 years ago, I was really excited about the idea of helping people achieve the American dream of owning a home. I wanted to guide families and individuals through the process of finding a place they could call their own, where they could build memories and a future. Owning a home is also a big part of building wealth, and I wanted to be there to support my clients in making smart investments. By starting my own business, I knew I could give each person the attention and care they needed to make these important decisions. Helping people reach their dreams and secure their financial future was a big part of my motivation

What should our readers know about your business?

From local to international clients, whether it’s new homes or commercial buildings in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area, I am honored to support my community’s prosperity in any economy. One of my proudest achievements is turning multiple clients into multimillionaires through real estate, leaving lasting legacies and changing lives. Help international clients to invest in the USA What drives me is elevating people’s lives, turning challenges into opportunities.

My mission is to inspire others to own a piece of America and celebrate their achievements, continuing to light the path to success and fulfillment.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
Yes definitely, many people helped me along my journey, and one of them is my sister Laura who saw something in me and helped me get into real estate from day one. She is the reason I got involved in real estate and have been in the game since then. So much love and admiration for her and her husband who runs a successful real estate company in Dallas
