| REALTOR® |

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.

  • We recently purchased our first home and were thrilled to have Linda & Ryan Lowe help us through such an exciting process. From visiting multiple houses to answering countless questions, Linda & Ryan were there each step of the way. We will always remember buying our first home and remain grateful to Linda & Ryan for making it such an enjoyable experience. We couldn't be happier to recommend Linda & Ryan, and their entire team!

  • I had the pleasure of working with Ryan Lowe in searching for the perfect house for myself and kids. Ryan is extremely knowledgeable of the industry, the county and does not have the stigma of a pushy Realtor looking to just sell a house to anybody. I felt Ryan and his team always had my back and were honest in sharing their opinions. Ryan made my home purchase go as smooth as could be expected, and when we did hit a few bumps in the road, he stayed by my side until everything was settled. I came to Ryan not having a very high regard for realtors, I am happy to say that Ryan and his team are far from being a usual real a state agent and go above and beyond to assure you find a home that is right for you. Thank you Ryan!

  • We relocated to Centre County, and Mariam Lowe was our realtor. She was fabulous! She always answered our calls and texts, very timely, and was so pleasant and knowledgable. We felt comfortable with her from the beginning, and went to closing on our new home with a feeling that we had a new friend. I would highly recommend her!

  • My agent was a Mariam Lowe. I would be more than willing to recommend her to anyone. As a first time home buyer, I did not have any experience with working with an agent. My father however has bought and sold not only homes but businesses and was also impressed with Miraim. I had many questions going through this process and I asked them whenever they came to me. Mairam was very prompt in replying, even on nights and weekends. I could not asked for anything more from a realtor. Mariam made the experience as stress free as possible for me. Great job Mariam!
