With a team committed to redefining real estate through empowerment, innovation and integrity, Maggie Castillo believes she is living her best life. She and her husband, Jose Castillo, and her mother, Maggie Velasquez, make up Nova Era Realty Group as part of Keller Williams Realty, Inc. “Our personalized approach guides clients towards homeownership while building generational wealth and lasting legacies.”

Adopting the team mantra ‘Building Generational Wealth with a New Perspective,’ Castillo takes pride in her profession and role as CEO. “My team ensures high-quality service when showing homes to clients, guiding them through the entire process,” she explains. They also guide members of the Hispanic community to bring reassurance to those who fear being taken advantage of during transactions.

Recipient of the Platinum Award from Keller Williams Houston Central and the Gold Award from Keller Williams Elite, Castillo’s group focuses on helping clients buy and sell residential real estate, as well as educating those who are beginning to venture into the commercial market. “I am dedicated to empowering others to achieve their dreams by sharing my insights and expertise with others in the industry,” she shares.

Castillo plans to expand her team by adding successful buyers agents and listing agents under one roof, where she can lead, teach, mentor and continue to impact community growth. “I tell anyone who wants to become a real estate professional to have passion, persistence and purpose,” she insists. “The key is to have faith in oneself as well as stay committed to goals despite the inevitable hiccups, hurdles, rainy days and financial problems.” As a working mother with a strong commitment to her family and three children, she continues to be grateful for the unwavering support of her husband and mother.
