After over 25 years of paying two night minimums at escalating prices for local hotel accommodations while attending various Penn State functions, we contacted Lowe's RE/MAX Centre Realty to inquire into buying opportunities in the State College area. To our delight we were connected with Mariam Lowe. Mariam took the time to listen and understand what we were looking for. She held our hands through the process of evaluating options and was extremely accommodating to our schedule as we visited State College throughout the Fall. Eventually we found a property that met our needs. Mariam proved to be a very effective experienced negotiator on our behalf. She continued to manage all the closing details, right up to actual document signing and us receiving the keys and the "infamous" Lowe...

Ryan Lowe worked with us on two real estate transactions, a townhouse purchase and a townhouse sale. He is personable, conscientious, professional and efficient. Ryan's knowledge of the process and ability to communicate with us concerning the things to do proved invaluable. In a slow market his advice helped us to buy and sell quickly. He made the process nearly seamless, and we certainly appreciate all the hard work he did to make things go smoothly. Ryan Lowe is an experienced professional, and we were very pleased with his knowledge and proficiency.

We were first time home buyers and moved from out of state. My husband made the following comment, which exemplifies our experience in working with Ryan, "I not only feel that we gained a realtor, but a friend." As first time buyers, we naturally had a million questions and not one went unanswered. I jokingly commented that Ryan never slept because his response time was impeccable. Ryan and his team made our experience more than positive and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell in Centre County. Their knowledge, experience and community involvement is evident. Fantastic realtors and fantastic people!

Ryan is a high energy professional that works for you on both sides of the transaction. His local knowledge and customer oriented approach make all the difference.

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,...
