About Ryan A Howell

Born and raised in Sarasota, I am an Eagle Scout and a second generation graduate of Riverview High School. After obtaining a degree in Economics from the University of Florida, I decided to follow my passions and got my Real Estate license in 2012 and Broker's license in 2014. Since joining the TEAM, my team has substantiated $200 million in closed business and I have had the opportunity to help many people find and sell their dream homes. I am an proud musician, playing the Euphonium as a member of the Tampa Bay Symphonic Winds. I am also a member of Beta Xi, the UF chapter of Tau Beta Sigma which is a service organization dedicated to improving and assisting collegiate bands. When I am not working or playing Euphonium, I like to unwind through Martial Arts, and have obtained Black Belts in Shuriryu Karate as well as Go Dai Henka Jiu Jitsu. I also have training in Kutao, Arnis and Muai Thai. To me, hard work matters and so does giving back. Helping people to pursue their dreams is what motivates me. As a competing Broker of three Real Estate Companies, I oversee transaction management and business development, and credit the skills I learned as a Scout with helping to grow the company. I REALLY love real estate, and working with so many fantastic people. Spending time in the woods teaches you the importance of problem solving. Finding alternative approaches and thinking outside of the box allows me to assist my clients in realizing their dreams.

I lived in Oregon and my work was bringing me to Sarasota Florida. Never have been here, I was clueless as where I should be for my family. I called to several local agents for help, but it wasn't until I found Ryan Howell and his team that I felt comfortable and at peace. They found me the perfect home and really kept my growing family in mind. They found me a home close to good schools, parks for my kids and dogs, and close to all major amenities that I was used to back home. They assisted with my move down, helped place me in a short term rental while I was closing on the house, and provided me with the best contacts in the business to be able to move into the home fast.... the lender, the inspector, the closer's, and even the contractor that helped due some minor TLC to the home. 1st Premier International Properties will always be my first choice for my real estate needs!

FAQS

1) What advice would you give a buyer trying to purchase a home?

Write down your wants and talk to an expert! You can google for hours and still not know, but picking up the phone makes everything more clear

2) What advice would you give a seller trying to sell their home?

Try looking at your home from a Buyer's eyes. Start at the front door and see what would stick out in your mind, and see if this can be overcome.

3) What types of clients have you worked with?

Buyer's, Seller's, Renter's, both foreign nationals as well as locals. From snowbirds looking for a second home, to college kids trying to find a place to stay while in school. I value relationships and have the unique ability and privilege to work with anyone1

4) Describe a recent transaction you are fond of. How did it go?

I listed a home for a nice couple at a price above the market average. They listened to my staging advice, and the professional photos came out awesome. I had an open house the first weekend had had 29 groups of people come through and 4 offers by Monday morning. Good communication from all parties made a smooth transaction until the end.

5) How did you get started in Real Estate?

My dad, Bill Howell, has been a real estate investor for over 40 years and started Hook & Ladder Realty, inc in 2008. He specialized in distressed sales and built up a team to handle over 400 listings a year. After College, I felt that my degree in Economics and passion for the power of Supply and Demand would fit perfectly with streamlining the company so I joined as one of the staff and worked my way up to manager and then to part owner. I have no plans on stopping any time soon!
