Mike Greene - The Future of Proptech and Real Estate

As the Chief Executive Officer, Mike Greene is responsible for all commercial activity at ResiShares.

Mike’s fascination with the housing market began with a guest lecture in his undergrad economics class by Nobel-winning economist Robert Shiller. The lecture focused on Shiller’s eponymous home price indices, which first drew attention to the possibility of liquid, geographically-based investment products.

During his 15 years in the securities industry, first on the sell-side and then as the head trader at Bocage Capital, Mike had a front-row seat to the rapid replacement of human discretion by algorithms in trade execution, portfolio optimization, risk analysis, and even asset selection. The implications of this evolution on the housing market were never far from his mind.

Mike left the securities industry in 2017 to focus on this new housing asset class, working with top SFR and whole loan investors at HouseCanary, leading home valuation and analytics platform. Witnessing the organic emergence of the single-family rental ecosystem convinced him that the world was finally ready to see Shiller’s challenge accepted.
ResiShares is the culmination of this career-long dream.
