"I must say the following right off the bat about Ryan Pederson: He is whip-smart He is extremely responsive He is honest, transparent, easy to talk to He has a deep understanding - both big-picture and current - about the real-estate market He knows houses and has a keen eye for detail He gives great advice but is never, never pushy And a little more for good measure: Ryan is humble and pleasant, and has a great sense of humor. I cannot imagine buying a home without his guidance, and when the time comes to sell, I will refuse to do it without him on board. We were referred to Ryan by another realtor, and it is clear that he has the respect of his fellow professionals. He made us look forward to home viewings, even when the homes didn't turn out right for us, and he made everything easy when it came time to make an offer and proceed with a purchase. For Seattle homebuyers in 2022, we were small fish with a small budget, and yet Ryan was always available, did fantastic work on our behalf, and made us feel like we were his only clients. He has our eternal gratitude!”

• Jill and Kevin - Buyers - Burien

“Ryan was an amazing guide and advocate for us during our first venture into real estate. As first time buyers we inundated him with questions, he was incredibly responsive and always delivered. Ryan was able to provide both a thorough overview of real estate 101, while also getting into the granular details when needed. We have already recommended Ryan to friends, and would definitely work with him again.”

• Jake and Rachel - Buyers - North Bend

“Ryan Pederson meets you where you are in your knowledge of the home buying process. His home buying/selling knowledge is encyclopedic. He can get technical and also paint the big picture of why something matters. Ryan is a problem solver who can help you navigate inevitable hurdles and negotiate skillfully on your behalf. Once your real estate transaction is complete, Ryan is the kind of agent you'll invite to your housewarming party.”

• Mick and Amanda - Buyers - Shoreline

“As first-time homebuyers in the intense Seattle housing market during the peak summer season, we needed a lot of guidance and support. Ryan provided that and more as we searched for our dream home. He was honest, patient, and persistent through a difficult and sometimes nerve-wracking process. More than an agent, he was a partner to us. We were so grateful to him for helping us to find a beautiful home in one of the most incredible cities in the country. Flash-forward five years and we were ready to move our growing family to the east side, one of the most competitive housing markets in the country, and of course, we called Ryan. This time, using his deep market insights, strategic planning, and thoughtful timing, he helped us to sell our house for over the asking price and purchase our new house for under. What more could you ask for? We're hoping to not move again for a while, but when we do, we know that we've got the best in the business in our corner. Thanks for everything, Ryan.”

• Rekha - Seller and Buyer - Central District / Sammamish

“We met Ryan through a friend who had purchased their home with him a few years ago and subsequently also sold it through him last year. I met him when we were given first look at their house and he immediately struck me as a very likeble, knowledgeable and straightforward agent. We had been in the market for about 6 months and had our share of realtors we dealt with, but none who managed to give me the feeling that they were working for "us", rather than for "themselves". I engaged Ryan to help us find a house and he spent a fair amount of time showing us numerous listings in and around the Seattle area and was there to satisfy my curiousity of new listings that would pop up and had no issues with presenting offers quickly in a hot market. One of his best qualities is to provide feedback on how to structure offers according to the seller's needs. He additionally opened us up to looking in areas we did not originally consider, but still met our needs. I found him to be patient and someone that and will always have your best interest in mind and go above and beyond. I highly recommend him.”

• Munish and Andeep - Buyers - Bainbridge Island

“Ryan Pederson helped us list and sell our house recently, which has been a volatile time in the market due in no small part to rising interest rates. With Ryan's forethought and planning, we were able to begin a cross country relocation knowing he was handling things while we were away. His network of contractors and professionals helped us get everything ready for our plan of selling a move-in-ready house, and much of it was thankfully hands off for us. I've got over 20+ years in home construction and repair, and have been involved as a contractor in hundreds of home sale improvements, repairs, and inspection reports. Ryan is among the best real estate brokers I've seen to have his market research done, a plan coming in, and a process for getting it done. If I sound like I'm gushing it's because with all the stress of relocating out of state on a fixed time schedule, we knew Ryan was handling anything that came up. We were happy with the offer we eventually accepted, and thank Ryan for helping us to get a jump start in our new part of the country! There's nobody I would trust more.”

• Luke - Seller - Tacoma

“I’ve purchased three and sold two homes now. Ryan is, hands down, the best agent I’ve worked with. He was incredibly courteous to me while maintaining a professional but hard stance with the seller. The result was a completed sell with discounts… I will 100% use Ryan again for future sales and purchases. With Ryan, I feel like I have found a lifetime agent.”

• Blake - Buyer - Bothell

“Ryan is amazing! I was super nervous about selling our home and buying a new one, especially since there are never any guarantees throughout the process, but Ryan kept me sane! He was upfront and honest throughout the entire process, answered any and all questions that we had, and gave his honest opinion on everything. He helped us not only sell our first home but purchase our forever home! Ryan also helped us find an amazing loan officer along the way. Ryan so personal and amazing, even when I would call him with minor freak outs or when I started crying at Starbucks reading offer letters on our home. LOL Ryan went above and beyond to put our mind at ease and make the process as seamless as possible. I cannot recommend him enough.”

- Jamie and Eric - Sellers and Buyers - Mountlake Terrace

“If you are looking for a home to buy, Ryan is your guy! He make the complicated aspects of buying a home understandable and truly wants his clients to feel comfortable and confident. He's also willing (and 100% capable) of working quickly and on short notice. My girlfriend and I inquired about a house with Ryan, set up a time to view the house, made an offer, and got the house in a matter of 3 days! Ryan helped make it possible and we couldn't have done it without him!”

- Hannah J - Buyer - Burien

“We chose to work with Ryan when purchasing our first home and could not have picked a better agent! Ryan was easily able to hone in on our needs and wants, while also serving as a natural teacher for us as newbies to the home buying process. Ryan's top priority was finding a safe place for us to call home, and he consistently demonstrated this through his words and actions. He quickly earned our trust and never pressured us into any decisions. He also empowered us by inviting and welcoming our many questions and sharing his thorough knowledge in the super-competitive Seattle market. It's also worth noting that we started working together during the pandemic! Ryan always followed the most recent safety guidelines, including wearing a mask and gloves. Even despite these barriers, Ryan easily built a rapport with us, making us feel safe and comfortable. If you're looking for a kind, considerate, knowledgeable, and responsive agent, Ryan is a great choice!”

- Sarah and José - Buyers - Burien

“We worked with Ryan to sell our Seattle home and buy a new home, also in Seattle. Anyone shopping in this market knows how difficult it can be, with multiple offers, escalating prices, and low inventory. Ryan was amazing throughout the entire process, always available to chat about our ideas of what we were looking for as the market and our budget evolved. He listened carefully, offering thoughtful suggestions all along the way. We never felt like we were just one of a long list of clients-- our experience felt very personalized, and that he was truly in it with us. When we found "the one," and were putting in our offer, he had several excellent suggestions about some of the "levers" that we could pull as buyers beyond purchase price to make our offer attractive; one of those was probably the reason we are now living in this wonderful home (just ask him about it.) He also connected us with a fantastic loan officer. Highly recommended!”

- Joel - Seller and Buyer - Phinney Ridge and Green Lake

"For us as first-time homeowners, we needed explanations of every single detail from A to Z. I remember our first meeting with Ryan when my husband and I kept saying, 'just one more question.' Ryan handled it with incredible patience and was thorough in all of his explanations. Buying a house is stressful, and in this market, even more so. But Ryan approached the entire process with a soothing, calm attitude that made us feel well taken care of. We've already recommended him to a few other friends, and would highly recommend him to anyone!"

- Anika and Ken - Buyers - Ballard

"Ryan was very helpful and was able to help out our house situation fast. He response fast and always be there for us when we need his expertise. We are able to find the house we love because of his help and was able to stay on top of the whole process while we are going through. He was great~!!!"

- ChanHo - Buyer - Lynnwood

"The prospect of purchasing our first home was daunting until we began working with this very skilled, confident, and personable agent. Ryan brought amazing expertise to our home buying experience and was a solid advocate throughout the entire process. Initially, we knew our parameters but were overwhelmed by possibilities. Ryan consistently and promptly fielded our questions while providing clear background on the topic at hand. Working with him was an education in the field of real estate which he made very accessible, engaging, and fun. The knowledge we gained in working with him built our confidence greatly and we could not be more pleased with the outcome. Our new home holds the qualities that are most important to us and our avenue here was made very enjoyable by Ryan."

- Kris and Rich - Buyers - West Seattle

"This was our first time purchasing a home in the Seattle area, and Ryan was with us every step of the way. We explored seemingly countless neighborhoods trying to get a feel of what kinds of properties my wife and I would both enjoy, and Ryan's ample patience and attention to detail allowed him to hone in on our evolving tastes quickly. When it came time to put offers down on properties Ryan was VERY fast, and knew exactly how to bargain for the kinds of prices we were looking for. He was well equipped with the knowledge of what made a good new home and what was a fair price for it, and he made the whole process seem very easy. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose Ryan every time."

- Kyle and Elena - Buyers - West Seattle

"Ryan had excellent pictures that presented the house very well. He helped us through the task of settling on a starting price for the house. He also gave us excellent guidance on what we should do to get the house ready to sell. Ryan was also very quick to respond to phone calls and did a good job elaborating on questions so we could understand/appreciate answers. We were very comfortable with the entire process and fortunate to have a quick and decisive sale!"

- Gary and Jean - sellers - Kent

"As a foreigner, I knew nothing about real estate until I met Ryan. At first I was not confident of the complexity of buying a condo near UW for my daughter and sort of hesitated when I gave Ryan my first check for the down-payment. But you are just getting better when working with Ryan! With patience, professional, elegance and other nice feelings he could offer, Ryan helped us to reach the point that we competitively got our desirable condo as well as my acknowledging the real estate market. "

- Shu - buyer - Seattle (Sand Point)

"Ryan helped us navigate buying a new house and selling our old one at the same time. He was patient, knowledgeable, and available whenever we needed help. He has a client-centered, no pressure approach and acts zealously on his clients' behalf. We wouldn't hesitate to give Ryan our highest recommendation to someone looking to buy or sell a home!"

- Heather - buyer and seller - Edmonds and Shoreline

"We had a very positive experience working with Ryan. His process for determining our selling price was thorough and accurate. We sold our house quicker than we expected, and couldn't be happier!  He responded quickly when we wanted more information about properties that were for sale. His ability to work on purchasing our new home contingent on the sale of our previous home, was huge for us as it allowed us to buy our dream home!

He is very personable and approachable.  He was easy to reach by phone or email, and always willing to answer our questions throughout the selling/purchasing process.  He is an excellent communicator. 

Ryan is professional and trustworthy. We wouldn't hesitate to use him again or recommend him to others."

- Jennie H  -  buyer and seller   -  Bothell and Seattle (Ballard)

 "Ryan's relaxed attitude and lack of pushiness made it easy to work with him, in addition to knowing that I could trust him 100%. I also appreciated his patience and his willingness to jump and negotiate the best deal when I was ready. I also appreciated his attention to detail during the inspection process."

- Neha C  -  buyer  -  Seattle  (Phinney Ridge)

"Ryan was very clear and I always felt very comfortable. I felt like I could ask for more explanation on some things (terms) that were new to me. I always like the "what-ifs" and scenarioizing even if I know it's probably a dead-end. It's a process that helps me make decisions. Ryan always took it in stride and humored the ideas."

- Kris R - seller - Seattle (West Seattle)

"I always felt like Ryan knew what I was questioning and had an answer. He did a good job keeping me informed and going with me all the way."

- Verna E - seller - Seattle (Bitter Lake)

"Thank you so much Ryan for the professional way in which you managed the listing and sale of our condo in the Tribeca! You provided quality service in so many ways: Canvasing the local area for prospective buyers, proactively locating possible lenders for buyers in a complex that is a challenge to find financing for, your attention to every detail, and keeping in touch with the selling agent, her buyer and the lender. The list goes on! A job well done Ryan!"

- Jim J - seller - Seattle (Mercer/Queen Anne)

"We felt very comfortable and enjoyed the thorough research that you presented to us. Loved having you as our realtor, Ryan!"

-Leena and Bharat S - buyers - Seattle (Eastlake)

"We appreciated Ryan's help and expertise in pricing, preparation of property, marketing and follow through to closing. Ryan made the entire process easy and worry-free."

-Tim and Harriet Y - sellers - Seattle (Magnolia)

"Ryan was a joy to work with because he was informative, prompt, and responsive. I sold a Condo in the Magnolia area and I was impressed with his research and knowledge of the market in the specific area. This is the first home I have sold and he talked me through every step in the process, answering my questions until I felt confident with my own understanding. 
I highly recommend Ryan Pederson. You will enjoy working with him and you can be confident that you will be making a good decision."
