Amlan Mitra - RE/MAX Real Estate Partners

I was born in Bangladesh, I moved with my family to the US when I was 7 years old in 1992. My dad wanted a better life for us in America so he switched careers from being a physician to a professor here at USM. My mother is the business lady in our family! My sister was Miss Mississippi 2013 and now works for NASA in Houston, as a rocket scientist. Both me and my younger sister went to Oak Grove High School in Hattiesburg, MS.

I am a father with two beautiful kids that are 15 months apart, my son Mason, who is 3 and my daughter Merritt, who is 2. They are the driving force behind everything I do now.

I got into real estate because my family has been investors in this community for the last 15 years. We have a dozen or so homes and apartments that I was managing growing up, from there I took a larger role and started buying my first investments about 5 years ago. I now have 7 short term rentals (Airbnbs) in the area. Now I have come full circle and joined this amazing team at RE/MAX. I could not be more excited for this next step in my career.

A fun fact about myself, I did video production for the Duck Dynasty in the Bahamas and I play the drums!

I know that there is a lot of uncertainty with the economy with possible recession and election year coming up. I say if you are well educated and are preparing to put your self ahead of this, whatever happens in the near future, we can all benefit from. Its all about positioning and leverage. Work with a REALTOR® that knows the facts and is experienced, and lets buy and sell some houses!
