Email MeRyan Holland is a commercial real estate agent with McBride Kelly and Associates, bringing a builder's perspective to commercial development that few agents can offer. Before stepping into real estate sales, Ryan spent years in the field managing construction projects from the ground up — experience that now shapes how he evaluates sites, advises clients, and structures deals in the commercial space.
Ryan's real estate career began in residential sales with Keller Williams and most recently with Realty One, where he built a strong foundation in market analysis, negotiation, and client representation. But it's his background in general contracting that sets him apart. Working across both commercial and residential construction in the Tampa Bay and St. Petersburg area, Ryan served as a project manager responsible for taking projects from permitting and site work through completion — managing budgets, timelines, subcontractors, and code compliance along the way.
On the commercial side, Ryan's project management experience spans retail shell construction, ground-up warehouse and industrial buildings, and commercial tenant build-outs — the exact project types that make up the core of commercial development and leasing activity today. That hands-on knowledge of construction sequencing, site readiness, zoning and permitting requirements, and build-out costs gives Ryan a practical, on-the-ground read of a property's true potential and the real cost and timeline of bringing a project to completion — insight most commercial agents only have secondhand.
On the residential side, Ryan worked directly with homeowners to build custom and spec homes of 4,000 SF and larger, managing every phase of construction while balancing an owner's vision with the realities of budget, design, and craftsmanship. That client-first discipline carries directly into how he serves commercial clients today.
For developers, investors, and tenants, this combination of construction and real estate expertise means working with an agent who doesn't just find a property — he understands what it takes to build, permit, and deliver one. Whether the project involves a ground-up retail center, an industrial warehouse, or a complex tenant improvement, Ryan brings the technical fluency to speak the language of contractors and architects while representing his clients' interests at every stage of the deal.
