Lissa Zapata, ABR®, CPE, Certified Military Residential Specialist,

As a proud first-generation American with Dominican roots and a devoted mom of two amazing daughters, my journey has been full of adventure, growth, and purpose. It all began in San Antonio, Texas—but as a military spouse, I spent over a decade moving around the world, supporting my family through each transition.

From Puerto Rico to Virginia, then Lisbon, Naples, New Orleans, and San Diego, every relocation gave me a deep, personal understanding of the unique challenges military families face when buying, selling, or renting a home. In 2015, life brought me full circle—back to San Antonio, the place I still proudly call home. In 2023, I embraced a new chapter as a single mother and former military spouse, carrying forward the strength and resilience those years gave me.

Since becoming licensed in 2016, I’ve made it my mission to serve as a trusted advocate for veterans, military families, and first-time buyers. I don’t just help people move—I help them move forward, with confidence.

To date, I’ve helped over 100 families navigate the real estate process and hold multiple designations, including:
ABR (Accredited Buyer Representative)
CPE (Client Protection Expert)
CRMS (Certified Military Residential Specialist)
NHC (New Home Construction and Buyer Representative)
PSA (Pricing Strategy Advisor)
SRS (Seller Representative Specialist)
Proud member of VAREP (Veterans Association of Real Estate Professionals)

I was selected as one of Platinum’s Top 500 - 2020 Semi-Finalists as well as The National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals (NAHREP) Top 100 - Latino Realtors 2018. In addition, I was nominated and won Military Spouse of the Year for Joint Base San Antonio two years in a row-2017 and 2018. For our brokerage, I was awarded the Rising Star-2016, Spirit Award-2017 Chairman’s Club- 2016 and 2018, Executive Club 2018 and 2019, 100’s Club 2018 and 2019.

When I’m not working with clients, I love catching up with friends over a glass of wine, trying new restaurants, road-tripping to hidden gems, or unwinding near the coast.

Let’s make your next move your best one yet.
