Customer Testimonials
Learn what Ryan Stafford's clients are saying about him
As first-time home buyers, we were very overwhelmed by the market in Steamboat. However, we had very specific needs and wants for our home. Ryan walked us through each step of the process and was able to find a property that perfectly fit our needs. When we heard that the house we wanted to put an offer on went under contract we were very disappointed. A few days later however the contract fell out and Ryan was waiting to put in our offer. With Ryan’s’ quick reactions and preparedness we got the home we really wanted. Thanks to Ryan’s efforts, we now are happy homeowners in the Steamboat community.

After living in Steamboat for a couple of years I was tired of renting and needed to buy a house. Ryan first helped me figure out a plan to get my financial situation ready so I could get a mortgage. I knew that I wanted to live in the mountain base area. We looked at all of the properties in my price range but nothing was really getting me excited. We came across a for sale by owner and Ryan negotiated a deal on the spot with the owner. I am glad that he was there to deal with this less than favorable seller who did not have any love for realtors.
-Jeff S.
I approached Ryan to help me find a new place because I needed more room for my dogs and toys. I did not want to sell my current condo but instead keep it as a rental. This made my needs specific and my budget tight. We looked at property for months and finally found a winner. I am glad Ryan kept me up to date through the process because at times I was getting frustrated. Now I am happy with more stuff and plenty of room to store it.
