Alvin Kamara Lists New Orleans Mansion for Sale, But Not for the Reason Fans Might Think
Alvin Kamara, the fan-favorite running back for the New Orleans Saints, has put his Belle Chasse mansion on the market for $2.75 million, sparking a flurry of speculation among fans. With Kamara heading into the final year of his contract and no extension in sight, many immediately jumped to the conclusion that he is preparing to leave the Crescent City. However, Kamara himself has stepped in to set the record straight: this move isn't necessarily about football or his unsettled contract.
Kamara's home, a 7,000 square-foot estate built in 2022, boasts luxury features such as custom wine storage units, a home theater, and an outdoor entertainment area complete with a pool and fire pits.
But beyond the flashy amenities, Kamara's decision to sell is part of his broader passion for real estate, a venture he has been involved in for some time. His brother, Allen Kamara, is handling the sale as his real estate agent, which means he literally has family ties to the industry.
"I’m pretty intentional when it comes to those moves that I make with real estate. I’ve got other properties around the city, too," Kamara told reporters. He has several ongoing projects, including residential and commercial developments across New Orleans, reflecting his ambition beyond the football field.
Kamara's real estate ventures are just one aspect of his entrepreneurial spirit. Known for his investments in juice bars, his role as a NASCAR growth and engagement advisor, and his collaborations with fashion brands, Kamara has always been more than just a football player. His diverse interests and ventures have positioned him as a true entrepreneur, and selling his Belle Chasse home is simply a strategic business move.
Despite the ongoing contract talks with the Saints, Kamara has made it clear that his focus is on the current season, not on potential future moves. He has been upfront about his intentions, stating that he doesn’t want to discuss his contract until after the season. "If it gets done, cool. If it doesn’t, cool," Kamara said earlier this week.
As for his current living situation, Kamara has moved in with his friend and Louisiana auto dealership mogul, Matt Bowers, while his house is on the market. Kamara’s decision to stay local highlights his commitment to New Orleans, regardless of what the future holds with the Saints.
For now, Kamara remains a part of the New Orleans community both on and off the field. His house may be up for sale, but Kamara’s love for the city and his entrepreneurial ambitions continue to flourish. Whether he's breaking tackles or breaking into new business ventures, Kamara has always been more than just a running back — he’s a savvy businessman with a clear vision for his future beyond football.
But in the meantime, his house is for sale, and you can see the listing here via Zillow.
