Mitch Galyean
I'm Mitch, a Huntington Beach native who's quietly found my way through life in Orange County. I have deep roots in the community, and my journey includes a modest stint in the local music scene, spanning five years. During that time, I toured with my band, managing others and picking up valuable business skills negotiating contracts with record labels, concert venues, and various industry vendors.
Life took an unexpected turn, guiding me towards Real Estate during one of the nation's toughest economic periods since the Great Depression. With a resilient spirit, I obtained a Real Estate license and immersed myself in the industry, viewing adversity as a chance to learn important lessons. "If I can understand the business during tough times, I believe I can better serve my clients throughout my entire career," is a principle I hold dear.
Today, I find myself among the ranks of young agents, continuously striving for self-improvement. Beyond obtaining a Broker’s license, I've played a role in elevating the Galyean Team to its current stature. My approach centers on authenticity, emphasizing the significance of genuine connections with those I work with. "Clients should feel we're more than agents; we're like family," I believe, drawing parallels to my music industry days.
Outside of work, I cherish moments with my wife and daughter. An adventurer at heart, I've explored 22 countries, finding balance by planning our next trip, reading, playing my guitar, and enjoying time with family and friends.
Mark Galyean
I'm Mark, born and raised in Orange County, I've been a constant presence in the Real Estate industry since 1978, earning my Broker's license in 1981. Over the years, I've witnessed the county's growth and navigated the ebbs and flows of Real Estate markets. My commitment is to guide clients through various investment landscapes, always emphasizing, "We're not salespeople; we're real estate advisors."
As a perpetual learner, I returned to school as an adult, earning honors with a degree in Business Administration/Finance from Cal State University Fullerton. My dedication to knowledge shines through in my meticulous approach to property marketing, offer submissions, and property valuations.
Beyond the borders of Orange County, my comfort zone extends throughout Southern California, with property ventures even reaching as far as Texas and Costa Rica.
Outside the realm of real estate, I find joy in family life, cherishing moments with my wife, children, and grandchildren. My interests include traveling, surfing, and exploring my vast music library.
