Andrew Byer

Andrew Byer

Andrew Byer, Attorney, was born in 1962 in Jersey City, New Jersey, into a family enriched by his Italian immigrant mother's heritage. This bicultural environment, which included significant time spent in Italy, ingrained a deep appreciation for diverse cultures, influencing his aspirations and later career in international law. He pursued a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science at Columbia University, graduating in 1984, and his global perspective was further enhanced by a semester abroad in France.

After completing his Juris Doctor at Syracuse University College of Law in 1987, Andrew began his legal career in South Florida. His initial role was as Lease Administrator and Legal Counsel at Miracle Marketplace in Coral Gables, where he honed his skills in commercial law by managing lease negotiations and tenant relations.

In 1990, Andrew's career path shifted toward international business when he assumed the role of Director of Operations for Maria Pia, an Italian shoe manufacturer, in closing its U.S. operations. His fluency in Italian and comprehensive legal knowledge were crucial in overseeing the orderly shutdown of the company's American presence. He continued to build on this international experience from 1991 to 1994 as General Counsel and Director of International Sales at Intracorp, Inc., a firm that developed video gaming software. In this role, Andrew was pivotal in securing licensing deals with Hollywood studios, allowing for the creation of video games based on popular films, which dramatically expanded the company’s reach into global markets.

In 1994, leveraging his extensive legal and international business experience, Andrew founded the Law Offices of Andrew Byer. His practice specializes in helping European companies enter and thrive in the U.S. market, offering legal guidance and strategic business insights. His multilingual skills and deep understanding of cross-border transactions made his firm a valuable asset to its clients.

Driven by his love for high-quality audio, Andrew opened Magnum Opus Audio in 2007, a Fort Lauderdale boutique specializing in high-end audio and home theater systems. As the retail landscape evolved, he shifted his entrepreneurial focus to real estate, founding AJ&J Holdings, LLC, and later Bozhlona, Inc. in 2024, focusing on property management.

Outside his professional life, Andrew is an active philanthropist, mainly engaged in animal welfare and community service initiatives. Today, Andrew Byer significantly contributes to his industry and community, utilizing his vast experience in law, business, and real estate.

Manny Khoshbin

Manny Khoshbin

Manuchehr “Manny” Khoshbin’s rise in the real estate sector is a story of tenacity, foresight, and hands-on leadership. Forced to leave Iran as a teenager, Khoshbin arrived in the United States at the age of 14, facing the daunting challenge of starting over in a new country with limited resources. Early hardships shaped his character; he quickly learned the importance of hard work through jobs like stocking shelves at Kmart and by launching a door-to-door nut-selling venture. Although these first steps were humble, they provided him with valuable experience in entrepreneurship and persistence.

By his early twenties, Manny Khoshbin had established himself in the mortgage and real estate industries. At 23, he diversified further by purchasing a supermarket in Santa Ana and then reinvesting the returns into acquiring overlooked properties. His strategy focused on identifying assets others missed and repositioning them for maximum value. This knack for timing was most evident in 2007, when he sold more than a million square feet of office space ahead of the real estate market downturn, safeguarding his investments.

As founder and CEO of The Khoshbin Company, Khoshbin expanded his portfolio to span multiple states, with holdings in industrial, retail, and office properties. Based in Costa Mesa, California, his company is distinguished by a hands-on approach and a philosophy of active asset management, which has contributed to more than $1.5 billion in closed transactions. Initially operating as a family office, the firm now partners selectively with outside investors, maintaining a streamlined structure that enables flexibility and responsiveness.

Beyond his achievements in real estate, Khoshbin is committed to philanthropy. He has contributed over $600,000 to causes supporting children’s welfare and pledged $1 million to the CHOC Thompson Autism Center. His commitment to giving back is a reflection of his gratitude for the opportunities he has received. As an author, Khoshbin shares his strategies and life lessons in works like “Contrarian PlayBook” and “Driven,” inspiring others to overcome obstacles and pursue their paths to success.

Khoshbin lives with his wife, Leyla Milani Khoshbin, and their two children in Newport Coast, California. His collection of rare and exotic cars is another facet of his disciplined investment mindset, which is built on thorough research and a focus on long-term value. Through his career, philanthropy, and personal pursuits, Manny Khoshbin demonstrates how resilience and vision can turn adversity into lasting achievement.
