Ryan Stieg
Fund Manager
Ryan Stieg’s career began in the mortgage industry after obtaining a degree in finance. He then transitioned into the insurance industry, which had family roots for most of his career. Over that span he held various positions in accounting, management and five years as the company’s CEO before the company’s sale. Since leaving insurance in late 2021, he has focused on opening a local fitness studio under a franchise umbrella. Since 2020, he’s also honed his passion for alternative, private investments as a co-Founder at Left Field Investors.
Starting his real estate journey with one investment in 2007, he didn’t become more active until 2016. He acquired a small portfolio of one to three-unit properties nationwide before focusing on more passive opportunities in 2018.
Ryan’s experience as a limited partner spans an individual and group portfolio that now includes well over 50 individual investments across asset classes that include NNN industrial sale-leasebacks, multi-family, self-storage, office, retail, preferred equity, notes, ATMs, operating businesses, and several others.
Patrick Wills
Fund Manager
An active real estate investor since 2017, Patrick Wills’ investing journey began like many others: after reading the “purple book” by Robert Kiyosaki. Patrick started with single family rentals and while they performed well, he quickly realized their inability to scale efficiently while remaining passive. He discovered syndications via podcasts and local meetups and never looked back. He discovered Left Field Investors in 2022 and has quickly become an integral part of the team.
An I.T. Systems Engineer by trade, he experienced the limitations of traditional Wall Street investing firsthand in his career and knew there had to be a better way to truly have financial freedom.
Unfortunately, that better way is inaccessible to those who need it most. His mission is to make alternative investments accessible to everyone who seeks to take control of their financial future to pursue their passions in life.
David Haire
Fund Manager
David Haire has been involved both actively and passively in the finance and real estate sectors for 17+ years. In this time, he has grown his real estate portfolio to 120 single family, duplexes, and small multi-family units in addition to numerous fix and flip and rehab projects.
Passively, he has invested as a limited partner in 11 deals covering a wide variety of asset classes including private equity, first lien debt positions, multi-family real estate, and hotel development and operation. After obtaining a degree in accounting and passing the CPA exam, he worked in public accounting, corporate America, and now works in an outsourced CFO/Fund Accounting role in the Alternative asset space.
As an active real estate broker and life insurance agent, he has successfully closed over 410 real estate transactions and continues to actively work in the marketplace. David’s experience is broad and relevant, and he brings real estate expertise and financial acumen to the team.
