That power is magnified many times over when two like-minded people who care about each other team up.

That’s the dynamic at work with the husband-and-wife team of Noahmi and Carlos Parra.

Path of Progress

As Division Presidents with the Jason Mitchell Real Estate Group, Noahmi and Carlos share the same path in life and business. In turn, they appreciate the way they are able to reach further on behalf of those around them … together.

“We really enjoy mentoring others in real estate coming into the business with no help or guidance,” Carlos says. “We have always focused on building teams.”

Noahmi remembers how she and Carlos met.

“We both grew up in ministry. We were pastors’ kids from Phoenix,” she remembers. “That’s all we knew at that time, but we knew that we wanted more. The market in 2007 was insane. Carlos was a bit nervous of me starting. I went into real estate because I thought it would be easy and I loved sales. Of course, as we all know, it’s not easy. I quickly found out that it was totally the opposite, a very tough market with no mentor or guidance and then the crash of 2008.”

Path of Faith

Carlos remembers the sense of satisfaction they had through their work of faith.

“We worked with urban youth through our ministry. At the time, real estate was something to add income to our daily living. It grew from there,” Carlos recalls.

“I’m proud of Noahmi. She started in the middle of a tough market. But she survived it and became Rookie of the Year.”

It was January 2007 when Noahmi earned her license, with Carlos joining her in the business in May 2016.

The two have definitely enjoyed a long, fruitful path together. They’ve been married for 24 years. Their love story first started when they were coming of age.

“I had a crush on Noahmi ever since I was 14 years old,” Carlos says with a warm smile. “We met in church. For a time, life took us in separate directions, but then we met again when we were 20 years old.”

Working with Love

It’s clear that they have a passion for their work and each other.

“I love the fact that I get to work with my husband. Carlos and I help each other a lot,” she says. “He’s understanding of the time that the business demands. He knows what it takes with this business … the hours that it takes.”

Carlos beams with pride about the gifts he sees in his wife.

“Even before real estate, she was always the sales-driven person. We used to sell gold, perfume, clothes, we also did a kiosk in the mall where we sold candles,” Carlos says. “We’ve been working together ever since we got married. I think it has really helped us understand each other. Our goals are set in the same direction. We pick each other up at times.”

On the Move

As they look at their move from Arizona to Texas, they believe it gave them—and their relationship—an important edge and advantage.

“I believe coming to Texas was huge for us … to start something new and focus on building our legacy. When we came here, it was a time for us to build. In the process, our family and girls work alongside us. We enjoy building something of our own. We set goals together and every decision we made was based on that.”

When they came to Texas, they didn’t have a sphere of influence in the area. In fact, they didn’t know anyone.

“We built this from zero. But I don’t believe we did this by ourselves. I honestly believe that God lined things up for us,” Carlos says. “I believe in purpose and destiny, and we became part of the Jason Mitchell Group just at the right time for us. Within the year, we became the division presidents for Dallas, and now within a few years, Noahmi is one of the managing Brokers over the whole state of Texas.”

Rewarding Results

Their results have been remarkable. In fact, in 2021, they recorded $24 million in sales volume representing 77 closings.

Last year, in 2022, they amassed 74 closings representing $29 million in sales volume.

Family makes life much richer for Carlos and Noahmi. They cherish time spent with their three daughters — 26-yearold, Scarlett; 21-year-old Anais; and 18-year-old Viance.

In their free time, they enjoy time with family, traveling, grilling, and enjoying good food.

Day-by-day, Noahmi and Carlos make a difference in the lives of those they get to know and work with. Along the way, they are a prime example of the power that exists when you do what you love with those you love.
