Michael Mannino

My approach is very different from traditional lenders; I don't believe in "selling" mortgages. Instead, I partner with my clients to create customized mortgage plans for their real estate wealth. Focusing on tomorrow’s needs as well as today's, I work in a way that is both strategic and mindful of their short- and long-term goals.

I don’t believe in “selling” mortgages to my clients. Instead, I become their trusted partner and advisor to create customized mortgage plans for their real estate wealth. Focusing on tomorrow’s needs as well as today’s, I work in a way that is strategic and mindful of their short- and long-term goals.

I live in Tustin Ranch with my wife (Mandy) and our 3 young children (Van, Lucy, and Beau). We are active members of our local Catholic church. Our family vacations are usually spent visiting the desert and relaxing in the pool, or spending long weekends on the beautiful central coast. In addition to immersing ourselves in nature on family hikes, and spending the day with the kids in the sand on the Balboa peninsula. I also enjoy coaching youth sports.
