I have used Ryan as my buying agent to purchase two homes in the State College area. I've had a lot of friends complain about how much work goes into buying a home. I didn't have that experience at all because Ryan was willing to do anything and everything to make the process as easy on me as possible. I plan to use Ryan anytime I have to buy or sell a home in the State College area. I don't think it is possible to find a better real estate agent!

We dealt primarily with Mariam Lowe as our buyers' agent. She did an excellent job taking care of our needs and working with us. This process went very smoothly and she was very prompt in answering our questions. We were very pleased with this experience.

I could not have been happier with the way the whole process went. Ryan was excellent, and there is a reason he and Linda are the best year in and year out. I will recommend him to anyone I know who's buying a home. As a first time home-buyer, I also learned a lot in the process from Ryan.

When we move here from Washington, DC, Linda was the sellers' agent, and Ryan was the buyers' agent for us. Ryan moved us seamlessly through finding a killer house on the Penn State golf course (2nd tee!), coordinating with us while we put our place in DC on the market, working with the myriad of mortgage lenders, home inspectors, etc. and getting us into our home within ONE MONTH of our putting in our offer. There was so much to do, and Ryan was instrumental in getting everything moving, planning contingencies, and doing everything for us long-distance to get all the gears to mesh perfectly. He was incredibly responsive to every question and request, spoke to us honestly about our options and strategy, and worked really hard with all the other players on this end. Far and away the best,...
