What got you into Real Estate?
What got me into real estate was my yearning to be a community leader. After graduating college I accepted the first corporate job offer I received. Working day in and day out for someone else’s dreams and never having a chance to connect with people in my community just didn’t fulfill me. I’ve always had a passion for real estate and the industry and knew that the best agents were individuals who were well networked within their communities. That sounded like everything I wanted to be.

How do you stay in peak shape? What’s your workout and diet regime?
The way I stay in peak shape is mainly because of my personal trainer Lane Bunch (BodybyBunch on Ig). He has created personalized workout plans for me to follow and help me achieve whatever my current physique goals are. I’m also someone who is very active and enjoys sports like boxing, Rock climbing, Volleyball, and Rugby to name a few.

What does self care look like for Amir? (We love to encourage our readers to take part in self care)
Self care for me looks like cooking! I’ve had a passion for it ever since I was young. To the point that my mother actually enrolled me in culinary summer camp classes. Cooking is one of the only things in my life where there is no rushing the process. There’s nothing like taking a bite of something that you labored over and letting out a sigh of relief when you’ve captured the exact flavor that you’re looking for.

What is something you wish you knew before getting into Real Estate? 

Something I wish I knew in real estate before I got into it was that just because you have a desire to help everyone doesn’t mean that everyone wants your help.

We are all about black beauty, what does black beauty mean to you?
To me Black Beauty is the culture. The fact that no matter what shade of black, blackness is still blackness and it is all beautiful and unique.

With a growing fan base and platform, what is something you want your followers to take away from following you on your journey?
No matter what you want as long as you’re willing to work for it, ANYTHING is possible. It might not happen today or tomorrow but with a little bit of consistency it’s bound to happen some day. Keep Showing Up. 

Lastly, what’s next for Amir?
What’s next for me is to make it as one of the youngest top producing agents in Austin and start speaking at high schools and junior highs to make an impact on the youth of America.
