Brands by Integra expands Texas leadership with new brokerage, state director roles

Brands by Integra has expanded its Texas leadership bench, naming Matt Dominguez vice president of brokerage operations for Century 21 Integra and appointing veteran broker Chris de la Garza as director of Texas and state broker.

The company said the moves, announced Tuesday, are aimed at supporting continued growth and agent production across its Texas footprint.

Dominguez to oversee brokerage operations

Dominguez brings nearly 20 years of real estate experience spanning brokerage leadership, production, investing and business development, according to the company announcement.

He most recently served as a team leader at one of the top-performing market centers in North Texas, where he oversaw recruiting, retention and agent development for more than 150 agents. Under his leadership, the office grew in both headcount and overall performance.

Dominguez is also an active real estate investor with experience in creative financing, fix-and-flip projects and multifamily acquisitions. Brands by Integra said that background is expected to help agents connect day-to-day production with longer-term wealth-building strategies.

In his new role, Dominguez will focus on driving agent productivity, strengthening recruiting and retention, and building what the company described as a high-performance, collaborative culture across Century 21 Integra’s operations.

De la Garza to lead Texas growth, serve as broker of record

Joining Dominguez on the Texas leadership team is de la Garza, a Texas-licensed broker with more than 25 years of experience developing agents, teams and offices in competitive markets.

De la Garza is known for helping agents increase production, win listings and create scalable business models that generate consistent income, the company said. He has led business development and expansion efforts across both brokerage and title operations, with a focus on increasing market share and per-agent productivity.

His approach centers on accountability, systems and hands-on coaching to improve conversion rates, build stronger pipelines and support six- and seven-figure agent businesses.

As director of Texas and broker for the state, de la Garza will concentrate on attracting growth-minded agents and building “dominant” offices across the state through tools, training and leadership.

Why this matters for Texas agents and teams

Brokerage operators across Texas are competing hard for productive agents as inventory remains tight and transaction volumes lag recent peaks. Firms that want to grow share in this environment are leaning on leadership hires with a track record of recruiting, coaching and improving per-agent output rather than just adding headcount.

For agents and teams, the additions at Century 21 Integra signal an emphasis on structured coaching, business planning and investment-minded advisory support. Dominguez’s investing experience and de la Garza’s operational background suggest the company is betting on a model that pairs traditional brokerage support with more intentional business- and wealth-building frameworks.

“Bringing in and elevating leaders like Matt and Chris reflects our commitment to investing in people who drive results,” Jim D’Amico, CEO, broker and owner, said in the announcement. “Their combined experience, leadership and passion for agent success position us for continued momentum across Texas.”

Brands by Integra noted that Dominguez, a former professional athlete, is expected to bring a team-oriented, high-discipline approach to the role, while de la Garza’s experience building scalable success models aligns with the company’s focus on creating growth paths for agents.
