Fred Mazaheri

Chief Executive Officer

Fred Mazaheri is the CEO and President of Mazaheri Properties.

Mazaheri began his career in real estate in 1987, purchasing foreclosed residential properties during the recession and fixing them himself. Fred could see the value in saving the properties and making them rentable to tenants. Mazaheri was so committed to doing the work himself and the right way – he enrolled in specialized tech courses to earn knowledge in HVAC, plumbing and electrical work. Mazaheri from beginning to end would take personal pride in every project he undertook.

After a decade of building his residential portfolio, Mazaheri sold the properties and moved his career into multifamily investments which then led to commercial real estate. Mazaheri began to take on development projects in 2010. The most recent development is a two-story 90,000 square foot building on May and Memorial that has become a restaurant hotspot as well as featuring exciting retail and office space. With over 30 years in the real estate business in the Oklahoma City Metro area, Mazaheri now boasts a large diversified portfolio that includes retail, office, medical, hotel and land investments.

Mazaheri received his Bachelors in Science in Industrial Engineering from Sharif University of Technology in Tehran, Iran in 1976. He went on to receive a Master’s Degree in Industrial Engineering from the University of Central Florida in 1977. Mazaheri graduated first in his class and then received the David Ross full scholarship for an Industrial Engineering Ph. D program at Purdue University. He developed an econometric model which was widely used by engineers and econometricians. The technique was published in the Journal of Computer and Industrial Engineering.

Mazaheri has built a business he loves with his wife, four children, and grandchildren. In his spare time you will find Fred farming crepe myrtles on his land, drinking tea, or playing with his grandchildren.
