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 and Linda Lowe provided us with quality service during the “relocation” sale of our home. They were prompt, hard working, provided excellent communications, and navigated with precision through the mounds of paperwork required by the Relocation Company. Due to their expertise in real estate sales, and the knowledge of the State College market, we had a full price offer on our home in less than two weeks, making the sale of our home a painless and profitable process.

  • We used Ryan Lowe as our real estate agent in 2008 to purchase a townhouse in State College for our two children who were attending PSU. He was friendly and professional, and we liked his proficiency and conscientiousness so much that we hired him again three years later to sell the townhouse after our children graduated from college. Ryan handled so much of the business end that we did not have to make repeated three hour trips to handle the sale of the house. He was able to communicate a level of real estate expertise to two generations of involved participants, both my wife and I and our two children. His accountability, honesty and efficiency made these two major transactions nearly seamless. I recommend Ryan Lowe without hesitation.
