My name is Ryan and I'm an Agent here in South Georgia. I've been working in Real Estate for over a year now. I got into real estate for a couple reasons, the main being that it just simply always interested me. I bought my first home in Jacksonville Florida when I was in my early 20's. I must have gotten lucky because I did no research on my agent, didn't even think to do so, and ended up finding a great home. I used the same agent to sell that same house a few years later for a nice profit. Every experience was good, from the paperwork, to finding a mortgage, to selling the house, everything.

When we sold the house we moved to South Georgia. I was married by this point and had my first kid. We decided to move here because we could get a little more space with our home, plus South Georgia is a pretty area. However, this is where I had my first bad experience. It wasn't the agent or broker that was working for us; it was the listing broker who also just happened to own the home that we were trying to buy. It was a mess and a horrible experience. I won't go until detail because it doesn't really matter anymore, but dealing with "Boss Hog" was the final nudge that I needed to get my license. I had always enjoyed Real Estate and hoped that I could help others.

My goals today are simple. Now that I've been doing this for over a year I've decided that I want to be involved with everything and anything dealing with real estate. I've had several deals since I started and not one of them has been text book or the same. I've learned something new every time. I'd like to keep learning; get involved with investors, commercial property, land, residential, fixer uppers, etc. I hope that this website can help become my gateway.

Thanks for taking the time to read my short novel and I look forward to meeting more of you. This is a great site.
