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.

  • Linda and Ryan are great to work with. They are extremely professional in all their dealings and make the experience of purchasing property as simple as possible. We have recommended their services to others, and will continue to do so.

  • Our house-buying experience went extremely smoothly with Ryan as our agent. He was extremely responsive at all times and was very friendly and pleasant to work with. He went above and beyond his duty by assisting us with dealing with post-purchase matters before our move-in date which was invaluable to us as we were relocating from afar. We highly recommend Ryan Lowe and would not hesitate to use him again.

  • 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!

  • 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 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.
