Mike Brady

Mike Brady has been active in the real estate profession for over two decades. Mike and his wife, Kathy, were drawn to the Valley's beauty and lifestyle. He has lived in Santa Barbara County since 1967 and, now an "old timer," moved to the Valley in 1977. He considers it a privilege to have raised his family here and to, now, watch his son, Micah, raise his family here as well. After graduating from the University of California at Santa Barbara in 1969, he earned a Masters Degree from California State University, Northridge, in1971.

Micah Brady was born in Santa Barbara and moved to the Valley at age 5. He attended Valley schools, graduating from Santa Ynez High School in 1990 and then, following in his dad's footsteps, graduated from U.C.S.B. in 1995. Micah became a licensed real estate agent in 1997 and a broker in 2002. Micah, his wife, Ashley, and their two young children, Laker and Fallin, live a life filled with social activities and friends.

Mike and Micah have a strong commitment to giving to and participating in their community. Mike was President of the Santa Ynez Valley Association of Realtors in 2000 and Micah served in that same capacity in 2004.

Most recently, Mike was actively involved in raising the funds to send our local high school drama department’s students to the internationally known Fringe Festival in Edinburg, Scotland, to stage the highly acclaimed play The Circuit. It was a great success! Mike was also instrumental in the raising of funds for the Amgen Tour of California’s Solvang Time Trail Stage Race.  He has been on the Board of the Pacific Conservatory for the Performing Arts, the Endowment Committee for the Santa Ynez Valley Cottage Hospital and the Santa Ynez Valley Planned Retirement Community Committee.
