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.
