Ron Koenigsberg is the founder of American Investment Properties, Inc. As one of Long Island's most successful commercial real estate brokers, Ron Koenigsberg has had an amazing journey through the intricate maze of real estate. Ron's passion for real estate ignited as a young boy going along with his father to survey construction sites and buildings.

Graduating with a bachelor of science in accounting from the Kogod School of business at American University, Ron set out to make his mark on New York's elite business world. In the late 1980's, he joined Arthur Andersen & Co., one of the country's most prestigious accounting firms. Ron excelled at the firm and gained invaluable insight on the economic aspect of real estate. His time at Arthur Andersen & Co. made him recognize that although he had a talent for comprehending numbers and figures, he sought after a position which would allow him to be more creative with his talents.

The next leg of Ron's journey would take him to New York University's newly established Real Estate Institute. Mr. Koenigsberg was among the first to attend NYU's Real Estate Institute. Earning a Master's Degree in real estate development and investment from NYU improved his understanding of the complexity of commercial real estate.

In the early 1990's, Chiyoda Life, the eighth largest life insurance company in Japan acknowledged Ron's ability to manage and oversee capital. Chiyoda hired Ron to lead their real estate acquisition department located in New York. Ron was entrusted with a $360 million a year budget. While working with top executives from Chase Bank, Jones Lang LaSalle Americas, Inc., Eastdil Secured and Eastern Consolidated, Mr. Koenigsberg was exposed to the ideas of countless seasoned professionals. Throughout his endeavors, Ron maintained a humble notion, which he still adamantly adheres to. "There is something to be learned from every person you meet, that's why I never turn away from an opportunity to learn something new". Ron worked along side some of the most powerful names in the financial industry. With his newly gained expertise of the financial aspect of real estate acquisition, Ron was prepared for the next step.

He was now prepared to immerse himself in what would turn out to be his ultimate dream; helping people like his father find the perfect piece of property to call their own. Ron is committed to doing whatever it takes to serve his clients. "I believe in doing whatever is hardest. I remember waking up one morning at 5a.m. to go measure the size of a building. I literally got down on my hands and knees with a tape measure to make sure my client had the exact measurements". After brokering deals as Senior Vice President of a Long Island based commercial brokerage firm, Ron founded American Investment Properties, Inc. Ron applied his principle of providing knowledgeable and exemplary service with unusual integrity to the formation of long term relationships with his clients.

Experience and talent have made Ron the person to track as his plans for the future surpass his remarkable accomplishments. American Investment Properties is the fastest growing brokerage firm on Long Island.
