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.

  • Went above and beyond to find properties that met our specific needs. Found properties that we had already passed over. We ended up buying a house we assumed we went interested in.

  • Ryan did a great job helping us find our home. We were first time home buyers and he answered all our questions and helped us through every step of the way! Would definitely recommend Ryan to anyone! He got back to us almost always on the same day if we had a question.

  • I worked with Ryan Lowe and he did the best job of any real estate agent I have ever worked with in the 40 years that I have been buying and selling real estate. I would recommend him with no reservations.

  • When we decided it was time to downsize to prepare for retirement, the Lowe's where there to help sell our older home and buy a new condo. Remarkably, this all happened within 90 days, thanks to the expertise of Linda, Mariam and Ryan Lowe. This team worked relentlessly to negotiate the buy-sell of the two properties. They not only met our budget but found the perfect new home as well! They really know the market. What we wanted was the first thing they asked us when we first met. And I can honestly say that throughout the process, my wife and I never once doubted the Lowe's ability to make it happen for us.

  • My husband and I were in the process of relocating to the State College area and came across Ryan's sister hosting an open house. She gave us Ryan's card and we never looked back! Ryan has the patience of a saint and has a way of being so supportive especially during a stressful time with moving. Ryan always made time to show us homes when we were up for the weekend, without hesitation. Ryan even took the time after we made an offer to let my mom see the house when she came down to visit us. Ryan, being from the area, knew where to take us from our laundry list of wants and needs. He is very knowledgeable not only with the area, but also gave us many recommendations on who to call for little upgrades that we wanted to do. I would recommend Ryan and Linda to anyone and I consider them our...
