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.

  • I tell everyone about the great experience i had! I have referred multiple people, and will continue to in the future! I never felt like i was annoying, or bothering, and was always reassured that I could call with any question, or concern no matter what time, or what day it was. Ryan even helped me with things he didn't have to...now that's above and beyond customer service! I've thanked them multiple times, but once again Thank You!!!

  • We relocated to South Carolina and had to sell our house in Pennsylvania while living out-of-state. Ryan Lowe was there for every step of the process, answered all of our questions, and even negotiated the offer Memorial Day! We really appreciated the email notifications for every showing, and the follow-up emails that provided feedback from the potential buyers. Ryan also kept us apprised of every update, attended the inspection, and went to closing on our behalf. Our only regret is he can't help us buy our new home in South Carolina.

  • Being first time home buyers, my girlfriend and I had little experience with the real estate transfer process and it seemed daunting at first, but Mariam Lowe went out of her way to make sure we truly understood every step along the way and ended up with the perfect home. When we first met her, Mariam gave off a warm vibe and was very personable, but also very down-to-business and professional. Mariam was prompt, early to all showings, knowledgeable of the properties, and most importantly, completely honest and open about all property information. She was engaged in understanding what my girlfriend and I truly wanted in a home, and cared that we end up in the right home, rather than just a home. When we had found the right home, we put an offer on it, but another offer came in at the same...

  • 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.

  • I can't say enough positive about Ryan and Linda. It's been just over 3 years since they helped us find a buy a house and how hard they worked for us STILL impresses us. It's not just the finding a home, but once we found the home we wanted, they were invaluable in helping us find the right professionals to get the house inspected and checked to make sure that nothing was going to surprise us later, and when the FHA required us to paint a brick wall, they helped us find someone who was not just able to do the job, but able to do it NOW.... in the middle of a January snowy day! This was critical for us as we HAD to be out of our old home by a certain deadline and we knew absolutely NO ONE in the area. Without Ryan and Linda's excellent service, we never would have made it! I could go on for...

  • Ryan was my agent for buying a house. They took care of almost everything including small details like setting up an account with the borough for water/sewage/trash. Buying a house can be stressful but with them it was no problem at all!
