Ryan Nickell is legitimately the best realtor I have ever worked with. My family and I aren't entirely new to the real estate game, so we've dealt with a couple real estate agents in the past, but since working with Ryan, I don't see how we could ever work with anyone else again because the bar is now set at an incredible level. Let me just say that buying a house in 2021 is no joke and if you are in the position to be looking, consider yourself extremely lucky. The market is insane! Throughout the whole process though, Ryan put my family and I at ease. In addition to the crazy market conditions, I had planned to use my VA loan for the home purchase. In such a hot market, most realtors try to steer veterans away from using this amazing benefit that they've earned. Ryan and his team are super knowledgeable about the ins and outs of the VA loan process and thanks to his network, we were …

Ryan Nickell is legitimately the best realtor I have ever worked with.

Let me just say that buying a house in 2021 is no joke and if you are in the position to be looking, consider yourself extremely lucky. The market is insane! Throughout the whole process though, Ryan put my family and I at ease. In addition to the crazy market conditions, I had planned to use my VA loan for the home purchase. In such a hot market, most realtors try to steer veterans away from using this amazing benefit that they've earned. Ryan and his team are super knowledgeable about the ins and outs of the VA loan process and thanks to his network, we were able to do a 21 DAY CLOSE WITH A VA LOAN on a property that had some section 1 damage. We even got to move up the close date from the initial expectation. Even after closing, Ryan opened up his network to us for one of the best general electricians in the area who rewired the whole house and made modifications and completed it all before our original close date! I have friends who've made offers on almost a dozen houses before finally getting accepted. My wife and I were prepared for the long haul going into this adventure, but thanks to Ryan with his market expertise and negotiation skills, the second house we made an offer on got accepted, and we weren't even the top offer. My family and I can't thank Ryan, our real estate coach (as I like to think of him), enough for helping us to find our forever-home and we want to spread the word through this review so others can benefit as well. Good luck and happy house hunting.

I'm one of those people who rarely write reviews, especially for real estate brokers! However, I'm writing this one because Ryan Nickell and his team truly changed my mind about them. At least this one. I have bought 10 houses over the years and sold 5. I have never had a good experience with an agent and never wanted to use one again after a transaction. From dishonest to just lazy I have had them all. I was dreading working with another one, but I did a lot of research and decided to list my house in Cupertino with Ryan Nickell. He did everything he promised and more! He had great recommendations on what needed to be done to the property before listing to get maximum value for my investment. One example was his recommendation that doing a bathroom upgrade would provide a great return on investment. Then he found all the skilled tradespeople to get the work done in a short amount of tim…

He did everything he promised and more! He had great recommendations on what needed to be done to the property before listing to get maximum value for my investment. One example was his recommendation that doing a bathroom upgrade would provide a great return on investment. Then he found all the skilled tradespeople to get the work done in a short amount of time, and even managed all of the work! I'm pretty detail oriented and it took me a bit to realize I could relax as Ryan had it all taken care of. He also did a great job negotiating with the buyers. The result of all of this was he got me a top-dollar offer on my property. The closest neighboring home sales at the time were a quarter million less than what Ryan negotiated for mine. This was quite an accomplishment given the market is cooling off with the interest rate hike last spring. I have never had an agent work as hard as he did. They usually do the bare minimum to get their commission. So if you want someone to sell your property and get the most value for it, I highly recommend Ryan. I'm sure he is just as great as a buyer's agent if you have him on your side. If I could give him twice the stars I would. He is amazing!

Ryan was instrumental in the sale of our home in Campbell. It was such a great experience to work with Tim and Ryan from start to finish. During our initial consultation, they went deep into market analysis, what I could expect, and what they'd recommend we do to maximize our ROI. They then took the lead in helping secure and line up contractor bids, schedules, etc. During the remodel, they were able to help set us up with everyone from contractors, and photographers to stagers. Any time we wanted to play a more active role Ryan let us, any time we wanted to lean on his expertise we could. In the end, his true negotiation skills showed and we received 17 offers and closed on a price much higher than we expected we'd get in this economic climate. I'd use Ryan Nickell for all of my real estate needs 10 times out of 10.

If I could give more stars I would! Ryan was an amazing agent. Unlike other agents we have WASTED our time with, Ryan actually has strategies for winning the bidding war. Without him and his team, I do not believe we would have gotten our forever home. He and Tim are VERY knowledgeable in all aspects of the real estate market. They've guided us through the financing process to make us a stronger buyer, helped us devise a plan for winning the bid, and even stuck with us after the sale to assist with the remodeling. Do not waste your time (and opportunity cost) with other agents. Go with this team. They truly earned their well-deserved commission. Will recommend Ryan & Tim to all our family & friends in the future!
