It's a wonderful day at RE/MAX and here in Centre County and Happy Valley!! I've been blessed to call Central PA my home since 2004 when I relocated here from Phila.  I married an amazing hometown guy, the 6th Grade Instrumental Band Director for SCASD, my parents live five minutes away from us and I get to be part of an amazing community. I feel so very blessed with where my journey has brought me.

My dad enlisted in the Air Force the year I was born. It set the tone for the first part of my life, being continually uprooted, and being far from family and friends and the security that can bring. It presented both challenges and lifelong opportunities.

Besides PA, I have lived in Washington State, Idaho, Louisiana, Hawaii, and Colorado. I've lived in busy and loud cities as well as small and rural areas. I've met a wide array of people throughout all of my travels, and have always taken care of others, whether that was part of my job or not.

So, getting into Real Estate and making my clients feel at home since 2014 was a natural fit for my customer service background. It's exciting because every day is different, the market is ever changing, technology is always evolving, and trends are constantly updating. People will always want a place to call their own.  A safe space to lay their head at night. Somewhere to grow their roots and I love being a part of  that!!

In addition to Real Estate, I enjoy being involved with my church, Faith United Methodist, in Bellefonte, as well as travel, especially to the Adirondacks every Summer for hiking, canoeing, and boating. We are avid history buffs and enjoy studying battlefields. For indoor activities, I love reading and doing puzzles.

I look forward to helping you in every way I can. Please allow my knowledge and know-how to guide you through the buying, selling, or investing process. There are so many things to consider and you need someone who has your best interests at heart. I can't wait to hear from you. Let's chat.

All the best to you and yours, now and always.

  • Ryan is a great realtor and communicator. His knowledge of the local area was impressive and he was always responsive to my husband and I in the process of buying our first house. Even when we asked him a million (and at times, silly) questions, Ryan was patient and understanding and I never felt pressured. He did a wonderful job of walking us through the steps it takes to buy a house and we felt that he truly cared about finding us the right house for us. Oh, there were bumps in the road in terms of buying our first house, but I always felt as though Ryan was on our side and made sure to present all of the options and then let us choose the path to the future. I loved how when showing us a house, he let us do the exploring instead of leading us around. I would highly recommend Ryan and...

  • I can't say enough positive things about my experience working with Team Linda & Ryan Lowe! Mariam Lowe was AMAZING! As a first time homebuyer, she worked hard to find my family and I the home of our dreams and respecting our budget. ANYONE looking to buy or sell in the Centre Region should definitely give Team Lowe a try; I know Mariam and her team worked hard to ensure my family and I recieved the best deal on our home. Mariam personally attended all meetings, both formal and informal and represented my family in a positive manner. I never had to worry about whether or not I was in good hands.

  • Ryan was a pleasure to buy a house with. He went above and beyond to show us properties at all hours of the day and night, making sure we got to see every possible property. He was informative and made sure we understood every step from the offer through the closing. I would recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a great Realtor.

  • Really easy to work with. Pretty accommodating as well. Gives great suggestions but will not force them upon you. Made the whole buying/selling experience much easier.

  • My husband and I were sure that our home would take a very long time to sell, because we had started remodeling it and were not able to complete the renovations before we needed to relocate for my husband’s work. Ryan knew exactly how to list the home and also was able to convey to other realtors what a great value our home actually was. We signed a seller’s agreement with the new home owners in one week from Ryan actually listing our home and posting the "For Sale" in our yard. We also received almost full asking price, which was completely amazing to us. I would highly recommend Ryan to all my friends and family!
