We have used Ryan and Sons Realtors to sell 2 homes and purchase 1 commercial property. With each transaction, we found Ryan and Sons to be knowledgeable, paying close attention to significant details, and patiently willing to educate us on each step of the various transactions. We were selling at a time when the housing market was difficult, but our realtor worked hard to get us the best offer possible. We appreciated their expert advice and wisdom in real estate, but mainly their sincere concern for us as individuals to accomplish what we needed. We would not hesitate to use Ryan and Son’s Realtors again.
