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.

  • Nobody in the area is more knowledgeable about the real estate in Central PA than Linda and Ryan Lowe. I am currently in the process of purchasing my second home through them and I couldn't be happier with their service. I never feel rushed and they continually go above and beyond what I expect of them to make sure I find exactly what I am looking for. No one will work harder to put you in the home of your dreams!

  • Everything was done in the best interest for the client, every detail and explanation was well explained and made a very comfortable feeling. As a first a first time home buyer, I leaned on Ryan Lowe at every moment of the purchase and he treated the whole process as if he were buying the home for himself. Every detail was brought to my attention (positive & negative) and couldn't be happier with my new home!

  • I will definately recommend Linda and Ryan Lowes/ ReMax Centre Realty to EVERYONE buying and selling. I had the pleasure of meeting with Mariam Lowe and from the beginning she was knowledgeable, understanding, and was always reachable through the phone, email . She was prompt and a professional in the field of Realty! We closed on my second home in Philipsburg,PA (Centre County ,PA ) on time. I would not have been able to do this "on time” without Mariam. I love my new house and can't wait to add new memories and make it my home. If you are looking to buy in Centre County, I highly recommend Mariam Lowe. Thank you Mariam for making it happen.

  • Mariam was awesome in working with us. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the local market and told us when we were looking at houses that were overpriced a bit. She was great about finding comps so we could put in a competitive but fair offer, and when it came to negotiations she had our back the entire time! She helped us find a house that was absolutely perfect for us! We couldn't be more happy!!!

  • I highly recommend Ryan and Linda Lowe and the Lowe team for the purchase and sale of a home in Centre County. Our most recent experience with the Lowe team was the sale of our house. We got an honest and accurate assessment of the value of our home . The biggest thing that stands out about the Ryan and Linda's listings is the online presentation. The photography and write up are above and beyond anything you see from other local agents, especially at our price point. The Lowe's sold our home in 2 weeks, in the winter, and I think the online listing was a major contributor. The other major advantage to using the Lowe's is the level of organization and service provided by the entire team. Ryan and Linda were very accommodating of our schedule with young children, and were always on the same...

  • We highly recommend Linda and Ryan Lowe Lowe! We have purchased nine investment properties through Linda and Ryan in the last seven years. They sold six of the properties, which we "flipped." They also sold our own home when we moved out of the area. They helped us list our properties for the right prices and sold them all quickly. We have always been impressed with their professionalism and their commitment to finding the right properties for us. They met our high expectations again and again. We could not find realtors like them when we moved and have called for their input more than once. We have recommended them to many others. They are the only realtors we would work with in Centre County!
