Melvin M. Navedo was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and grew up in the towns of Dorado
and Toa Baja. He has a Master of Accounting degree from the University of Phoenix. He
is a financial advisor, investor, Real Estate Broker, Real Estate Instructor, founder of
Melvin M Navedo Real Estate, owner and president of Latin American Financial, a
mortgage bank on our Island, and founder and president of the Navedo Family
Foundation.
Through his companies, he has managed to help many Puerto Rican families, not only to
own their home, but also to help those who already have a home to maintain it. During
his more than 25 years of experience as an entrepreneur on our Island, Mr. Navedo has
had the opportunity to help a few talented young people start their journey both personally
and professionally. This through numerous activities to promote entrepreneurship,
community leadership and economic development. Today, there are many young
entrepreneurs who have had the opportunity to be part of this initiative. It is for them and
for each of the young people who do not have the necessary resources to develop their
talents that the Navedo Family Foundation was born.
