Robert M. Kohn is one of the chief architects of the EGI vision, and a Director since the company's inception in 2004. His expertise and "Midas touch" have been well documented in a thirty-year career continuously licensed as a real estate broker in multiple jurisdictions, resulting in an excess of a billion dollars in sales of condos, co-ops, town houses and individual homes. In 1996, he co-founded Homes for America Holdings (HFAH) with Robert A. MacFarlane, with whom he built the company to nearly $190 million in gross assets. He was responsible for Beau Rivage, the first condo tower built in the Fort Myers, Florida area in over twenty years. Thanks to his efforts, HFAH was named the 2003 Business Story in Fort Myers, spurring revitalization of the area and a veritable stampede of interest. Subsequently, he arranged financing for St. Tropez, Riviera and Monaco, three more condo towers in Fort Myers; and obtained land for four condo towers in West Palm Beach. Currently, Mr. Kohn manages land acquisition, construction and sales and marketing for 1,773 units of condominiums.
Prior to founding HFAH, Robert Kohn was the president of Alfred Kohn Realty Corporation and Schuyler Realty, and a managing partner of Kohn Belson Associates, managing more than 22,000 apartments. Mr. Kohn converted more than $100 million of rental properties and warehouses into residential lofts, and orchestrated the financing and acquisition of thousands of multi-family housing units. Mr. Kohn graduated from Ohio University with a B.S. in Economics. |
