Syed Abbas Ali
Broker/Principal
Meridian Real Estate

With a background in residential and commercial property management and real estate investing, Syed Abbas Ali shares his 25 years of expertise with clients all over Houston and San Antonio. The co-principal of Meridian Real Estate with his wife, Nafees, Ali serves investor clients for single-family homes, retail, office buildings and land — representing commercial tenants, including high-credit companies. “I give each and every client honest advice just like I would expect any advisor of mine to give me,” he says. “If I think a property or situation would not be good for them, I let them know.”

With a heavy reliance on word of mouth and referrals, Ali has retained clients since the early years of his brokerage in 2001.

In 2019, Ali expanded his brokerage to more than double its original size, ensuring that both longtime agents and new hires have the training and support they need to thrive. “Our company dynamics are those of a close-knit family, and it is amazing to see our family members be successful,” he says.

Ali is a member of the National Association of Realtors, Texas Association of Realtors, Houston Association of Realtors, and San Antonio Board of Realtors. He has an e-Pro designation and is currently working on his Certifeid Real Estate Brokerage Manager designation.

Outside of work, Ali teaches at a Sunday school and volunteers at a local organization to provide meals for the less fortunate. He loves to travel and enjoys woodworking and breeding tropical fish.
