Local real estate specialist and South Coast Metro resident Michael Wortel has a quality not many agents possess: he instantly connects with clients in a profound, genuine way. Michael’s strong analytical skills and deep understanding of what home really means to people create a unique, universal insight that differentiates him from others in the industry.

Michael’s extensive experience as the editor of two popular print publications has refined perhaps the most important skill in real estate: strong communication. His background managing all aspects of a 642-unit apartment community in South Coast Metro—and leading the leasing department for well over a decade—has also proven to be a great asset in his present-day career as a REALTOR®. Thanks to Michael’s ability to establish and understand clients’ needs as well as guide them through nuanced transactions, he is able to build trust and offer the most seamless home buying and selling experiences possible. 

When Michael isn’t working, he loves giving back to his community. He is deeply involved with ABC7’s Spark of Love Toy Drive, a charitable effort that distributes toys to underprivileged children in Orange, Los Angeles, and San Bernardino Counties.
