Hamza Khamisa

Hamza is the owner of Legacy Estate, a real estate brokerage with over 11 years of experience, known for serving clients with integrity and care. He credits his parents for raising him to be a good Muslim and a good human being, values that guide every part of his life.

He serves on the Executive Committee of the Hillside Islamic Center, where he has volunteered for nearly a decade, and also serves as the General Secretary of the Memon Association of North America. The Hillside community has played a defining role in shaping who he is today.

During Ramadan, Hamza organizes donut distributions to mosques across Long Island on the 27th night, spreading joy and unity within the community. He also works with Muslim organizations during Halloween to create a fun, safe space for Muslim children, hosting donut-decorating events that allow kids to celebrate with confidence and joy.

Giving back is central to Hamza’s character, and his service extends to people of all communities, races, and faiths. Outside of work and service, he enjoys spending time outdoors and riding his horse, which keeps him grounded and grateful.
