ABOUT OUR OWNER
Muhamed Becovic
In 2005, Muhamed Becovic established Becovic Management Group of Indiana, marking the genesis of a journey into multifamily acquisitions in the vibrant Indianapolis market. By 2010, this venture flourished, overseeing the proficient management of over 1,000 multifamily units. The company's expansion into the Florida market in 2014 marked another milestone, as Becovic Management Group of Indiana successfully added 152 multifamily units to its portfolio through a strategic acquisition in Jacksonville. This pivotal moment heralded the onset of sustained prosperity in the Florida market.
A graduate of Knox College, Muhamed brings a wealth of knowledge honed through various trade and industry-specific programs and training initiatives. His expertise in multifamily rehabilitation and construction dates back to the 1970s, where under the mentorship of his father, he gained invaluable field experience while working directly on properties owned by the Becovic family name.
With over 30 years of hands-on experience in owning and managing over 2,000 multifamily apartment units, Muhamed's passion for complexity found new expression with his foray into the aviation industry. Following the acquisition of his first aircraft, his fascination deepened, leading to the full acquisition of Mach Point Aviation in 2024. Under his leadership, a team of seasoned aviation professionals, each boasting over 20 years of experience, was assembled to establish a company committed to excellence in every aspect. Muhamed envisions not only expanding the charter and management arm of the company but also acquiring infrastructure and other aviation firms.
Amidst his professional pursuits, Muhamed treasures his time with his wife and children, relishing moments of leisure and family bonding.
