Ryan assisted us in selling an income property-coordinating everything through the closing. Without question, Ryan is one of the best agents in Hampton Roads- and coordinated communications with our tenants, condo owners association and prospective buyers. Without fail, he took care of everything.

Ryan was so helpful to us buying our house. We weren't able to come out to VA to look at any houses before buying and he made the experience so much less stressful. Anytime we asked to see a house or get info on a house, he jumped right on it. There was never any hesitation on anything. He was completely honest and upfront about the way the house looked in person. He and his partner, Sue, really made buying a home from 2700 miles away very easy and made us feel very comfortable going through with the purchase without seeing the home first. We can't say enough good things about him and we will definitely be using him again when we sell our home in a few years.

Ryan was a pleasure to work with ! He was responsive and proactive. I was selling the house while living in Florida. He took care of all the details and issues with the house.

After getting to know Ryan by attending some of his open houses, we decided to use The Hometown Advantage team (Ryan and Sue) when it was time for us to list our house. Even though we listed in a buyer's market and had a very unique house and circumstances, Ryan stayed positive all the way through our listing/selling. They used creative marketing techniques and held relevant open houses and we never had any doubt in them. Ryan cares about his clients and it shows. We would definitely use the team of Ryan and Sue if we were to buy or sell in the area again.

We had a great experience with Ryan and he held in there with us in the sale of the condo that was left to our Church endowment. We recommend Ryan and would use him in the future.
