BORN IN THE BAY

FORTY45 Management was created to honor the legacy of David Himy, who began his real estate investment career investing in California real estate in the early 1970’s. An immigrant from Morocco, David’s humble beginnings were established by operating a textile wholesale import business from his Emeryville warehouse under the flagship “Bon Motif”. As his textile business grew, David invested the proceeds into Bay Area real estate, eventually overseeing a diverse portfolio of properties, ranging from office and industrial to specialized facilities and logistics centers. 

FORTY45 Management was established to continue the sound investment criteria used by its founder, continuing the tradition of real estate acquisitions and property management. Our team takes a hands-on, personalized approach to every project. When you engage with Forty45 Management, you interact directly with experienced principals who are committed to understanding and exceeding the needs of our partners and the communities we serve.
