Bio
MIKE CARLSON
Founder & Principal | Metric Real Asset Strategies
Mike Carlson is a 25-year commercial real estate veteran and the founder of Metric Real Asset
Strategies. Navigating three market cycles with over $1B in career transaction volume, Mike
specializes in solving the "technical deficit" within the $5M to $25M middle market. He treats real
estate as an engineered financial instrument, operating at the intersection of street and science.
As a dedicated fiduciary for private principals and family offices, Mike combines elite academic data
with street-level negotiating instincts. He eliminates guesswork by aggressively stress-testing assets
against debt volatility and terminal cap rates before capital is committed. Bridging the Pacific Northwest and the Southwest, he executes complex 1031 exchange arbitrage and precision portfolio audits to maximize client IRR and protect generational wealth.
Pedigree: Advanced quantitative real estate analytics frameworks from MIT, Harvard, Columbia, and
NYU.
Core Expertise: Institutional Underwriting, 1031 Arbitrage, Portfolio Stress-Testing.
