Ryan Cochrane Real Estate - The Agency

Ryan is definitely a top Victoria Realtor He did great job of insuring that our daughter best interests were more important than him makin a real estate sale. We found him very professional and knowledgeable. If you are looking for an honest and hard working Realtor, I would recommend that you should contact Ryan

We met Ryan through family when he gave a volunteer talk for a community organization. As first-time home buyers we found Ryan provided constructive step-by-step advice as we navigated the finding and purchasing process. He listened to what we were looking for and asked insightful questions to help guide us. He promptly followed up on our questions and was always encouraging us to ask more. He kept close track of the search/purchasing process and proactively contacted us on where things were at. He urged and supported us to take our time to find the right fit, which we really appreciated. Ryan provided friendly, professional, punctual service - it was a pleasure doing business with him. I would recommend him to my friends and family.

Ryan recently helped us sell a property in Victoria and from beginning to end the experience was simply excellent. I knew Ryan as an Olympic swimmer, but I can tell you as a Realtor he is just as high performing. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Ryan Cochrane was the realtor for the sale of my condo and did an exceptional job. At our first meeting Ryan explained the process, listened to my concerns and answered all my questions. I was comfortable with Ryan's manner and suggestions. He always responded quickly to text or email questions and remained calm and positive with his approach. Throughout the process I trusted Ryan and respected his ethics, knowledge, and organizational skills. I would absolutely recommend Ryan to friends and family wishing to sell or purchase a home.

I particularly like the way Ryan handles people. There were a few 'different' situations that he was adept at saying the right thing to keep everyone, including me, on track.

Xceptional Realtor - Highly Recommended!
I recently had the pleasure of working with Ryan in my search to find my first home, and I must say that my experience was nothing short of excellent. From start to finish, Ryan demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for my needs and budget. In addition to his professional expertise, Ryan displays a genuine passion for helping people find their dream homes. He genuinely cared about my happiness and well-being, and it was evident in the personalized attention he provided. I wholeheartedly recommend Ryan to anyone starting this process!

Ryan was an absolute dream to work with and we would be happy to have him represent us again in the future! From the very start he was very responsive to our questions, kept us up to date throughout the process and demonstrated a high level of professionalism. His neighborhood knowledge was a great asset for us, since we are new to the island. Highly recommend!

My husband and I reached out to Ryan upon relocating from the lower mainland to the island to help us in our search for a new family home. Ryan was great with introducing us to the area, sharing “insider” tips about various locations and builds based on what we were looking for, and remained extremely patient with us as we continuously changed our priorities! What really impressed us though was his communication and responsiveness. He always kept us very well informed, was completely on top of things, readily available seemingly at all times (does this guy ever take a break? !) and would even keep us updated when there was no update ;).
If you’re looking for someone reliable, responsible in the industry, trustworthy and an overall great realtor look no further! We were super happy with him and with our new purchase!

Ryan was a gift for us first time home buyers! His knowledge and experience helped us a lot; guiding us on what to look at in a house, future use, etc. And he was always there to answer any questions we had. Can't recommend him enough.

We chose Ryan to sell our Victoria home based on speaking with him at various open houses we had attended. He seemed an enthusiastic and caring young man.
We made the right choice! Ryan was helpful, communicative and spot on with his marketing of our home. The plan Ryan laid out came off exactly as Ryan had suggested.
We can highly recommend Ryan for any real estate transaction you are considering. Not only a great agent but a caring and considerate young man as well.

After about 18 months of looking, found our perfect house, and so grateful that the journey was with Ryan! He is super fast in replying to any messages, honest and direct, very caring about needs and budgets, has lots of helpful contacts, great colleagues and so patient with my countless questions!

It was a pleasure working with Ryan while buying my first home. Admittedly I was skeptical about all stages of the process and had lots of questions. Ryan was able to answer these continual and often nuanced questions, always making sure I was satisfied and understood the answers. Ryan walked the fine line between giving his honest (and accurate!) opinion when I needed it, while also giving me space to make my own decisions. When it comes to responsiveness and booking viewings, Ryan is uncannily fast. This was a requirement in the current market, and ultimately facilitated my successful purchase. When it came to reviewing documents and drafting offers, which we certainly did a lot of over the multiple months it took me to make a purchase, Ryan caught multiple issues within the often large mess of paperwork. While initially skeptical, it did not take long before I knew Ryan was looking out for my best interests. All in all, Ryan is principled, patient, and thoughtful, he went above and beyond what I initially expected, and was a pleasure to work with not just as a realtor, but as a person.

It was a pleasure working with Ryan. He is a great communicator, responsive and knowledgeable. As first-time home buyers out of province we didn't know what to expect. Ryan was always happy to answer any questions, providing guidance and suggestions. It took us a while to get a place in this crazy market, he was always patient, professional and helpful. I would highly recommend Ryan.

We were searching for a home in Washington and reached out to Ryan to see if he had suggestions for an agent we could trust. Given the market is so competitive and fast paced, we wanted someone super reliable. The agent Ryan connected us with turned out to be incredible. We got our dream home in under a month, and throughout the process Ryan was always available and supportive, helping us through all the typical homebuying stresses and answering questions. We got super lucky not only to have an agent on the ground, but Ryan helping us out the whole way.

Ryan has been absolutely fantastic.

He helped us navigate a very tough real estate market in Victoria with the end result of securing the perfect home at the right price. With the current market so popular and so fast moving - this is not an easy thing to accomplish!

Ryan was professional, knowledgeable and very patient - he kept us on track having clearly listened to our original goal as we ended up with a home that ticks every box on our list which in such a frenetic market I had almost pushed to one side! Thank you Ryan!

I would recommend Ryan to anyone starting their property search in Victoria.

Ryan went above and beyond in guiding us through all stages of buying and selling in a very fast-moving market. He helped us find the perfect home in a great neighbourhood by listening to what was important to us, and being realistic when it came to viewing a variety of properties in Victoria. He also had great advice when it came to selling our current home, and was extremely prompt and professional in all his communication. He is also well-connected in the realty community and was able to provide excellent recommendations for a variety of services. We highly recommend Ryan for your real estate needs!

Ryan was just the Realtor I was looking for. Very friendly, responsive and knowledgeable. He priced and sold my Victoria condo for me with no problem and navigated the multiple offers very well to get me the best price. He also had excellent tips on local lawyers and services I needed to get through the process, which was a great help since I don't live in the area. I would definitely use him again!

We were so glad to have Ryan guide us through the fraught process of buying our first house. His relaxed and friendly demeanor put us at ease when we first started looking and he encouraged us to take as much time as we needed. Once we found something we liked he was 100% engaged and committed to helping us to develop our offer and conduct due diligence. We look forward to working with him again when we are ready for our next move.

Awesome to work with - incredibly responsive around the clock. Really listens to what you want and is never pushy. Strongly recommend!

Ryan (and Ashley) were lovely, competent, professional agents who provided a rare combination of confidence and warmth that really worked for us in looking for a home. We especially appreciated Ryan’s capacity to vision what “can be” in a space, combined with a very shrewd and calculating eye to what are financially worthwhile decisions (and what are not). We felt supported and listened to every step of the way - and were given very honest and direct opinions when asked. Ryan is also kind and has a great spirit that’s infectious - along with his more practical and strategic approach to real estate. We highly recommend him.

I cannot speak highly enough of my experience with Ryan. From start to finish he was very responsive, kind, and a constant professional. He listened to my specific wants and needs and truly delivered. He was able to walk me through the process and make my purchase as stress free as possible. Thank you Ryan!

Ryan helped me find my first condo!

Ryan was able to answer all of my questions immediately, making the process of buying my first home and made it extremely easy for me.

One thing I really appreciate about Ryan is that he was able to understand what I wanted and find something even better than what I described.

Ryan is not only very professional but also easy to talk to.

I would absolutely highly recommend his services if you were looking for a good realtor!

We sold our home in the Estevan neighbourhood of Oak Bay in May of 2021, using Ryan as our seller's agent.

Ryan was very responsive, communicated well, and friendly.

He proposed a approach to selling our house that worked very well; by the time it was listed with MLS, there were already interested potential buyers ready to see it, and the house sold well above asking (which was also higher than we expected) in less than two days.

Ryan managed the process very effectively; we knew at all times what was expected to happen next.

We would certainly use Ryan again, and have no difficulty recommending him to others.

We cannot speak more highly of Ryan as a real estate agent. He is trustworthy, patient, punctual and professional. We trusted Ryan had our best interest in mind throughout our whole house-hunting process. He provided us good insights on where to look, when to be flexible and when we should walk away. We are so grateful that helped us find our beautiful home and would highly recommend him to others who are looking for an agent who they can trust to find their dream home.

Ryan is and exceptional Realtor. His research and work ethic combined with a kind nature is standout. We were looking for a second home and being from the mainland Ryan was our ears and eyes. He made us feel we had nothing to worry about when it came fine print and history of everything we looked at. We would reccomended him and use him again in the future. He made the process easy.

Ryan was an AWESOME agent! We were very fortunate to have found Ryan who assisted us in finding and purchasing our home! Even in difficult situations, he was patient, working very hard and solved problems right away. He always replied to our emails swiftly even on weekend evenings! Ryan had a really good understanding of the local market and we would definitely use him again next time we buy or sell a home. Highly recommended!

Ryan recently helped us purchase our home in Victoria, and I couldn't recommend working with him enough! He was incredible the entire way through the process - from helping arrange viewings at convenient times, to helping scrutinize potential properties, to making offers and the negotiation phase. He was very responsive to all our communication. Most importantly he made us feel that he understood what we were looking for and helped us to find it - we never felt rushed or pushed to settle, if anything Ryan actually encouraged us to realize that what we wanted WAS out there and that we just had to be patient. We would certainly use him again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Very hard working and dedicated! You can tell he obviously loves what he’s doing. Would highly recommend!

Ryan was a great realtor. He persevered with us through the uncertainty and difficulties of a house hunt during a pandemic, and we finally found our dream home. He then worked with us on a competitive bid and helped us close the deal on a home we never thought we’d have. Couldn’t be happier!

Ryan was great. We were looking for a condo that met very specific accessibility needs, which Ryan immediately understood. He went around to the condos on our viewing list in advance to confirm whether they would meet our accessibility needs, which saved us a huge amount of time.and frustration. And of course he helped us find something that is just perfect for us. I highly recommend Ryan.

I am very impressed with the service received from Ryan Cochrane. He is professionally cool, efficient and always on top of things. He is articulate and communicated with me all the information that I needed to know. Thanks Ryan for selling my house!

I was extremely happy working with Ryan Cochrane and highly recommend him for several reasons. Not only is he does he know the market well, but he is personable, punctual, extremely hard working, and responds very quickly to any correspondence. He took the time to learn what our needs and preferences are, and showed us a variety of homes to help us sort out our priorities. When our dream home came up on the market, he messaged us immediately and arranged for us to see it before anyone else had the opportunity. We put an offer in that same day, and won a bidding war without overpaying because Ryan is a skilled negotiator and advocated strongly for us. My husband and I are so happy about new home! I would recommend Ryan Cochrane to anyone looking for a home!

Ryan helped me purchase a condo this month. His professionalism, helpfulness and overall work ethic surrounding the process was second to none. His knowledge of the industry is nothing short of impressive and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ryan to anyone looking for assistance in buying or selling a home.

Ryan made our sale a simple and straightforward process. Always professional and courteous, the timely updates along the way made working with him a pleasure. No question was too small or insignificant, and no ask was too much. Anyone who is looking for representation either buying or selling, should stop searching and call Ryan. He will demonstrate the dedication needed to see your Real Estate transaction to a successful conclusion.

We hired Ryan to sell our oceanfront cottage and couldn't be happier with how hard he worked to represent us. We appreciated his updates and communication and how quickly he would get back to us if we had questions. Ryan makes it easy to trust him with the entire process and we would happily buy or sell with him in the future. You will not be disappointed having Ryan represent you in a purchase or sale.

Working with Ryan on our recent home purchase was an absolutely wonderful experience. He was professional and courteous throughout our time working together and can be counted on to provide an unbiased opinion. We viewed a number of different properties together and found Ryan to be very patient and diligent as we searched for the right property to fill our families needs. I have been through the home buying process on a number of occasions and highly recommend him for all of your real estate needs. Thank you so very much Ryan.

Had a great experience with Ryan.would definitely recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a Real Estate Agent.
