Having withstood the test of time, Ryan is aware of the importance of flexibility. Prior to entering the property industry, he had been a soldier, a white-collared office worker and even part-time manual labourer in between. 

With such rich experience from so many industries, he has found that he enjoys constantly learning new things. To date, real estate is the only industry in which he can meet new people, facing new challenges and view amazing home designs. To him, it is truly the best mix of challenge and dynamism.

His first foray into property started in the resale segment, a sector that has now become his second home. Standing apart from other sectors, Ryan fondly describes the resale market as ‘the most challenging parts of the other property markets, times TEN’.

Where selections are often limited and wear and tear expected, resale buyers need a savvy agent to alert them of renovation costs, maintenance estimates and even to walk them away from hidden-cost-ridden units. Likewise, sellers need to find buyers whose tastes match with their own, as interior designs vary from owner to owner.
