American Real PM started in 2016, however the story of Scotty and Kyle began almost 20 years earlier. In early 2000’s, Scotty Mitchell decided to move from Dallas to New York to help his wife pursue her dreams of being on Broadway. Scotty had always worked his way up to management in different jobs, however he never settled on just one industry! After having experience in retail, food delivery, wait staff and telecommunications, he decided to get his real estate license and start a new career.
He found a team in a large brokerage firm that was looking to break off and start their own company. Scotty wanted to be able to manage his own team so he joined the new venture and put out a Craigslist ad to start recruiting. Kyle Karker found the ad, met with Scotty, and immediately Scotty knew he had to hire him. Within four years, Scotty was the Director of Operations and Kyle was his #1 agent. After several years of successfully running the brokerage, Scotty decided to move back to Dallas to start a family, while Kyle had decided to start a new brokerage with his mentor, Greg.
Scotty became a Senior Property Manager for a large single family management company in Dallas for a few years. In 2016, he was presented with the opportunity to start his own property management company with one of the top four turnkey investment companies in the country. He built many B2B relationships in the industry, had his first two hires in just a few months and was quickly growing. He then started his search for the perfect business partner to help him grow the company.
Meanwhile, Kyle had continued to run his brokerage in Manhattan, but his partner and mentor had recently passed, so he was looking for his next new opportunity. Kyle and Scotty reconnected and Scotty offered Kyle to partner up with him on American Real PM. Kyle’s response was “I wouldn’t be opposed” and a few days later, Kyle was packed up and on a flight to Dallas! Thus, American Real PM as we know it today, was born.

Meet The Team
Talulah
Chief Happiness Officer
Talulah’s story began at the age of two, when she was found running wild at a dog park, trying to make new friends. A rescue group was attempting to take her in, but she ran up to a man to see if he would save her instead. This man was Kyle, and he became her new dad. Next thing she knew, she was living in an Uptown Dallas apartment with super comfy furniture and pillows to play with/snack on. Talulah deserved more, so her humans packed up and bought her a house. Now, she looks out the window to make sure all the cats in the neighborhood don’t infiltrate her house. Sometimes, her dad makes her go to work and sit through long meetings, and she hasn’t ever seen a paycheck. Life has been difficult without having people around the office as often, but Talulah is always there to make people happy! The team at American Real PM can always count on her for kisses and cuddles, and that’s all it takes to keep smiles on everyone’s face.
