A real estate agent is a person who must play many roles: from helping one to see the potential, pointing out the flaws or difficulties, researching the codes that might make or break the deals, predicting the financial trends that impact housing, marriage counseling, driver, tour guide, and translator of all paperwork. The agent must befriend the buyer and get to know them enough to understand what they are really looking for even if they arent sure themselves. They must also proactively seek to stage, market, and advocate for their selling clients with efficiency, up-to-date knowledge of trends that impact selling, and clear communication at every stage. Ryan McGlone flows through each role effortlessly and is certainly the most personal, efficient, effective, and helpful agent Ive worked with. I'm the sort of client who sent frantic texts, asked the same question with different words if I didnt like the answer or didnt understand, and needed many repeat visits- and he always replied right away, researched everything I asked about, and gave me all the time I needed. It made me feel like I was his favorite client; the most important client; the one he was friends with so wanted to call after hours and help. Its his sincere approach to everything that allows everyone to feel that special when working with him. Ryan is trustworthy. You can trust him with your biggest hopes, your finances, your worries, your vulnerable mess when moving, and your big emotional swings that inevitably come with moving, buying and selling. He doesnt let things fall through the cracks even when there are big cracks like pandemic housing markets or holidays or inclement weather- he is steadfast through it all. To be honest, I am writing this review a year after we bought our home because a year later I am still grateful and still sort of wish he was as much a part of our family as he was for those few weeks of house hunting. I could sometimes use help reframing a decision or someone to calm my nerves about other big decisions or meet with me for scary appointments so I dont have to go through them alone. Thats the final role of an agent- to be deeply embedded in your family for a short time, and then, when you are safely moved in, to know that you have moved on and are now deciding paint colors, what to plant in the empty corner of the backyard, and pet-sitting your neighbors dogs. So a year later I am looking back and realizing how deeply grateful I am to him even while I am still looking forward to all that this home offers me and my family. I hope that you are able to find your dream home too with Ryans help!

Working with Ryan was a wonderful experience, he is truly an expert on the area and market. Ryan's expertise was apparent from day one when we met with him to discuss our needs and wants for our new home. Honestly I don't think it could've gone any smoother with the purchase of our property!

We had a wonderful experience working with Jana and Ryan at the McGlone Property Group at Cascade Hasson Sotheby's Realty. During our home buying process, they went above and beyond by touring us around the community with personalized commentary in order to familiarize us with the neighborhoods. They were reliable, transparent, and dependable which is just what we needed trying to by a home from out of state. We built a great relationship over a short period of time and plan to foster that relationship over the years. We are so grateful for their help and couldn't be happier with their services.

We just closed on our home and are moving in today! Working with Sofia was really enjoyable. She was knowledgeable, patient and dedicated. We started looking at houses a year before we were going to be able to buy and Sofia was accommodating and informative even that far in advance. I was impressed with her dedication even throughout the whole year-long process. Once we were buying the home, she was always available or ensured someone else could step in for her and we felt cared for throughout the process. We would highly recommend working with Sofia!

Sofia did an incredible job helping us find the right place that met all of our picky needs. Leveraging her vast knowledge of Bend and the surrounding area, Sofia helped us understand what options were available based on what was most important to us. While I thought buying in Bend from out-of-state would be challenging, Sofia made it so easy! She was always available to answer any of our questions and even FaceTimed us while she was touring homes we were unable to visit. Sofia helped us not only buy the home but also navigate all of the additional paperwork and processes that come with being a new homeowner. She was there for us from beginning to end, and then some. I highly recommend Sofia if you are thinking of buying a new home.

Sofia made our first home buying experience a breeze. We were purchasing from out-of-state and Sofia went above and beyond to make sure we were confident in our purchase and gave us so many tips and tidbits on how to handle the process. She explained each step well and was able to help us get the best rates! She is super responsive and was always willing to answer our questions whether they felt stupid or not. Totally would recommend Sofia!!

Ryan and his team were great to work with for buying and selling our last two homes. We initially planned to only sell our home and rent for a while but ended up finding our dream house, so we worked with Ryan on both transactions. He did an outstanding job coordinating everything with the other brokers, the title company, our lender, home inspectors, and contractors to meet our close dates, which shifted a few times throughout the process, and he kept us updated every step of the way. He even got us multiple offers in the first week and had our home sold in less than a month in a difficult market, and we were in our new home a week later. And I'm still impressed that it all happened during the busy holiday season between Thanksgiving and New Years. We couldn't be happier with our experience with Ryan and his team. Highly recommended!

Ryan and Jana were absolutely fabulous to work with in searching for my new home. They were patient and willing to go the extra mile to make sure I found just the right place to meet all of my needs. Moving here from out of state, I appreciated Ryans expertise on the market trends as well as his knowledge of the different builders and neighborhoods that make up all of Bend. Jana provided such a relaxed and caring vibe right from the startaEUR|it felt like going to look at houses with my friend each time. She made herself available anytime of day (or night!) when I wanted to go see a new listing. She was so patient and made me feel that every house we looked at (and we looked at a LOT!) was leading me to the right one. This totally proved to be true. I couldnt be happier. Ryan knew just how to write the offer when it came time to do so. It was a multiple offer situation, but the way he presented mine almost 100% assured me of winning the bidaEUR|and I did! The first house I made an offer on became my forever home, and I'm so grateful!

Ryan McGlone is far-and-away the most capable real estate agent whom we have ever engaged over the years. He began our interactions with a detailed Zoom session, where we were able to share our criteria and preferences. Ryan came prepared with deep analysis on the Bend market, having pulled a wide range of very useful data from multiple sources. He on short order put together a full two days of property visits, revealing very impressive familiarity with nearly every house we entered. He was always very transparent, never pushy. He assisted in our negotiations masterfully. He added an analytical approach which we have not seen before, supporting our desired price with extensive due diligence of comparable houses. The seller indicated that he took our price largely because of the quality of our background research on the market, which he found convincing. We have just moved in to our new house and Ryan continues to "check in" on us.

Ryan and his team were absolutely exceptional. He knows the area, and he is thorough. He navigated us through this experience so positively and authentically that we would recommend him without hesitation. He understands the strategy of real estate in Central Oregon; we benefitted tremendously from his wisdom. Thank you, Ryan!
