Lloyd Goldman is the son of Irving Goldman, a real estate broker, and Joyce Goldman. Sol Goldman, his son, was one of New York City’s most influential real estate developers in the 1980s, with a portfolio of nearly 600 commercial and residential properties.

Being a billionaire heir, Goldman inherited a real estate portfolio in New York City, allowing him to start purchasing distressed assets at government auctions in the 1990s. He later founded BLDG Management in 1984, which now owns over 250 residential and commercial properties around the country and has a real estate portfolio worth over $2 billion. He expanded his asset by purchasing the shopping space in The St. Regis Hotel for $117 million in 2009 with Jeffrey Feil and Stanley Chera and sold it for $380 million in 2012. Goldman built BLDG Management’s first residential building in New York City in late 2018. M&T Bank’s New York City Director’s Advisory Council and Mortgage Investment Council all have Goldman as a member.
