Ryan Sherman is a Realtor® with Compass serving buyers and sellers across the Monterey Peninsula. Based in Carmel, he focuses on helping clients navigate one of California’s most distinctive coastal markets with clarity, thoughtful guidance, and a strategy tailored to each property.
Ryan believes that real estate is not only about the home itself, but about how a place supports the way people want to live. Whether someone is searching for a full-time residence, a coastal retreat, or preparing to sell a property they have owned for years, his approach centers on understanding lifestyle, timing, and long-term goals before recommending next steps.
Before transitioning into real estate, Ryan spent a decade as Vice President of Product at a technology company, where he led teams focused on strategy, data, and customer experience. That background shapes how he approaches the real estate process today. Clients benefit from clear communication, thoughtful analysis of market conditions, and a steady hand from first conversation through closing.
Ryan lives full-time on the Monterey Peninsula and enjoys helping people discover what makes each community unique, from the quiet charm of Carmel-by-the-Sea to the coastal energy of Pacific Grove and Monterey.
If you are considering buying or selling along the Monterey Peninsula, Ryan is always happy to share local insight and help you explore your options.
