In this lively episode, Michael Ryan shares the incredible and winding path that brought him from turning wrenches in Alaska to navigating the complexities of commercial real estate and mortgage consulting in California.

Raised in the Santa Cruz Mountains and seasoned by hands-on trades like construction and automotive repair, Michael’s early experiences taught him grit and resourcefulness. After an injury ended his blue-collar career, he pivoted—on a dare—into real estate, and never looked back.

From selling land during Alaska’s 1980s crash, to building deep knowledge in mortgage strategy, Michael walks us through how he guides clients with one goal in mind: doing what’s right for them. His practical and transparent approach to real estate and finance is grounded in his values and vast experience—from options trading to flipping homes to helping people craft balanced wealth plans.
