MIKE METZGER
The Strength of Teamwork • The Reputation for Results
THE MAN
Mike Metzger is a husband, father, grandfather, team leader, and lifelong problem-solver. Born in 1977 and married to the love of his life, Jana, since 1998, Mike is the proud father of three and grandfather of five. He’s known for his loyalty to family, friends, and clients — and yes, he actually has more than ten real friends (verified).
He runs about 190 lbs., sports brown-and-silver hair, brown eyes, still puts his pants on one leg at a time, has finished two 5Ks, and is unapologetically anti–Daylight Savings Time.
THE MYTH
Mike has:
-
Drove two different body styles of Ford Taurus in the same decade
-
Surfed ten days in a row without missing a sunrise
-
Logged 50+ rides in a single surf session
-
Read ten books to his grandchildren in one week — all different voices
-
Closed over $5 million in real estate in a single week — twice
-
Built over $250 million in career sales in under three decades
-
Started a second real estate legacy in Florida after mastering Utah
-
Hired a business coach not because he was stuck — but because he wanted to become better
Momentum isn’t something Mike chases. It’s something he builds.
THE LEGEND
Mike built the largest and most successful real estate team in Castle Country history, then did something few are bold enough to do — he moved to Florida and started again, bringing small-town care, ethics, and service to a fast-paced coastal market.
Rumors of a secret mansion remain unconfirmed.
Rumors of his love for his wife? Absolutely true.
He’s known for:
-
Losing sleep when deals go sideways
-
Thinking creatively at midnight
-
Answering calls before sunrise
-
And occasionally squeezing in a surf session when the waves cooperate
For Mike, real estate isn’t a job — it’s a responsibility.
