Company History
SHORT STORY ABOUT OUR COMPANY
THE GROWING ROOTS OF SOUTH AMERICA
Las Acacias is an infamous flat-top-looking tree or shrub (Gowanda) found around the world. The name “Great Tree” became popular amongst bands, restaurants, and other attractions in Colombia, South America. During the late 70s, Mr. Ramirez’s father, Dr. Hugo Ramirez, used the name Las Acacias from his childhood memories. When Dr. Ramirez was young, he spent some of his childhood living with his grandparents in a town south of Bogota, Colombia. Here, every morning, when he looked out on the horizon, the “Great Tree” lay in view. Later on, when Dr. Ramirez became a business owner, he would use the name Las Acacias, Inc. in his business endeavors. While Dr. Ramirez was studying medicine at the Universidad National de Colombia, he would be accepted into one of the leading medical schools in Colombia, Pontifical Javierian University.
Eric Ramirez’s mother, Doris Stella Ramirez, went to Venice High School in Los Angeles, California. Here, she would learn about the construction industry from her uncle, David Shaby (Builder). Dr. & Mrs. Ramirez got married at an early age in Bogota, Colombia. From there they moved to Providence, Rhode Island, to begin his medical career. After several years of medical practice in Rhode Island, Dr. Ramirez received an offer from Bayshore Hospital in Pasadena, Texas. As Dr. Ramirez would now call Texas home, he and his wife would start a family, bringing the name Las Acacias with them. The Ramirez family began developing subdivisions in the 80s and 90s (Pasadena River Oaks, Santorini Estates I, II, III, etc.). Now in the present millennium, they have established the first gated community in Pasadena, Texas, named “Colombian Village”.
Over time, Mr. Eric Ramirez’s parents would become well-known as the leaders in the development of many upscale subdivisions of Pasadena, Texas. Not only were they developers, realtors, and real estate investors, but they would develop great relationships with the City of Pasadena’s Public Works, Planning, Community Development, Building Permit Departments, and more. Local civil engineers and custom home builders respected Mrs. Ramirez, for her knowledge of construction and community development.
In the 80s, in the south of Pasadena, Fairmont Parkway was barely developed with only one two-lane highway coming and going to La Porte, TX. Now Fairmont Parkway has four to five lanes. During our family’s best years in construction, they developed a Birthing Center, the World’s Largest Softball Field in the 80s, and managed a multi-family building company, which included rental properties, re-modeling, and restorations.
During this time in the 80s, Mr. Eric Ramirez was a young child. He grew up in the construction industry, starting with the construction of Pasadena River Oaks. He remembers riding bulldozers with Glen Sargent (a partner of Doris Ramirez.) This period of time, he credits to starting his construction career. With this early advantage, he would pursue his education in construction. Eventually, he would reach one of his goals and become a Master Builder with the National Association of Home Builders (Greater Houston Builders Association) in 2008. At the same time, he studied International Code Council’s (ICC) courses and became a Residential Building Inspector in 2013. This would further his skills and education as a future Commercial Building Inspector. He is currently active with the ICC and several other related associations.
In 2008, during Hurricane Ike, a simple phone call would introduce Mr. Ramirez to a whole new industry. This opportunity diversified his career as a Custom Home Builder and Professional Re-modeler in the industry of Insurance with no limits on investigating loss and finding solutions.
In 2011, in order to have a better understanding of the insurance industry, he studied and took his exam to become a Texas All-Lines Insurance Adjuster. Since an Insurance Adjuster is a seasonal job, and had disadvantages if he wrote (1) $50,000 earning $1,750, compare (5) $10,000 earning $1,035 each = $5,175, he could not go to sleep at night knowing that he is cheating the homeowner. (NFIP ADJUSTERS FEE SCHEDULE)
To acquire experience in insurance estimating, Mr. Ramirez would be introduced to the Public Insurance Adjusting industry. After completing a couple of estimates for one of these companies, Mr. Ramirez ran into problems. The company started performing in bad faith toward their estimators. So with this setback, Mr. Ramirez decided that with his experience and passion for the Houston community, he would become a Public Insurance Adjuster in Texas in 2012.
