He did and awesome job and was a pleasure to work with. We're first time homebuyers and relied heavily on his expertise to find us the right home, we were not disappointed! Thank you Ryan!

Kurt Joyal

We truly couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. Ryan stuck with us through months of searching and always patient, upbeat, and ready with new ideas and a great sense of humor!. Sometimes he knew what we’d love before we even saw it ourselves. He was so easy to work with by being flexible with showings, quick to respond and full of great local insight and contacts. We felt really taken care of every step of the way!

Carissa Robertson

Ryan was super helpful in getting our house listed, staged, and sold in a tight window. He is easy to work with, brings a ton of knowledge and experience, and gets the job done. Highly recommended.

Ryan made my first time home buying experience as comfortable as possible. He very patiently walked me through the process before any showings, which made writing an offer later much easier. Very responsive to any questions and always felt as if I was a top priority. The insight into quirks and potential areas for improvement in the (older) homes we looked at was much appreciated. Great insight and patience!

This was our first time buying a house, and although the process was stressful, we were so grateful for the opportunity to work with Ryan. We first started looking at houses with Ryan two years ago and quickly learned we needed to save up more before we could be done renting. Ryan was very patient with us until we were ready. We started looking for a house again in May and he made a lot of effort to be flexible with us and fit us in for multiple showings a week. We were thankful to have him along with us for house showings because he would point out things that we should look out for when looking at a home and even suggested things we could easily fix if we were interested in a house. He took the time and energy to really get to know us and feel out what we wanted in a home. He was very knowledgeable about the market and I completely trusted his advice on how much we should offer for a particular house and when we should make the offer. The first offer we wrote (a month after we officially began house searching) was accepted and the house was even appraised for more than we paid for the house. We were able to close and move into our house in July (just two months after we officially started looking)!!Overall Ryan was personable, pleasant to be around, knowledgeable, and trust worthy. I would recommend Ryan to anyone I know.

Ryan has been amazing throughout our two-year journey to find our dream home and helped us navigate an elusive mortgage assumption. He has a wealth of knowledge of the area, and many connections. He was super patient with us, offering guidance through these past crazy housing market swings, and remained level headed even when we were unsure, hesitant, and low key probably frustrating clients at times haha. Highly recommend him for anyone looking for a realtor who truly cares about their clients!

Ryan helped us buy our first house, and we couldn't be happier. We had an accepted offer within just a few weeks! There was definitely some luck involved there, but Ryan did a lot of the heavy lifting. He explained the process clearly so we felt confident at every step. When booking showings, his schedule was flexible and he was able to make additions on short notice. He was also very quick and reliable when responding to messages. Finally, he helped clean up some last-minute repairs to the house so the move-in process was as easy as possible. We can't recommend Ryan enough!

Ryan is phenomenal! Extremely knowledgeable on both the seller and buyer side and so personable. It was both a joy and pleasure to work with him. He gets results and makes it fun to get those results. 5 stars because I would recommend him to anyone house hunting or looking to sell without hesitation! We've collaborated with him and his team twice now and we're so lucky to have him as a realtor.

Ryan made my first time home buying process really easy for me & was there to answer my questions all along the way. He is definitely good at what he does and I would recommend him to anyone looking to sell or buy

Ryan was awesome, HIGHLY recommend his service. He was professional and the only reason I was sane throughout the entire process. We started looking around July and closed before the end of the year. Very patient and had my best interest in mind.

Ryan and his wife, Shelby, helped us prep and sell our home while also working with us to buy a new one. They were very knowledgable of the seller's market we were in and shaped our expectations accordingly. Perhaps the most unique challenge in it all was we started with Shelby, who was pregnant with twins. When the twins came, Ryan stepped in, and we were able to find the home we wanted our kids to grow up in. Thanks for everything you two. Hope you're finding time to sleep.

Ryan was extremely helpful through the entire home buying process. We purchased our first home with him, and he was able to answer every question we had clearly and in simple terms. He gave us great guidance through the process, from what to look for to how much to offer to a recommendation on the lender.

Ainsley

I couldn't be happier with Ryan's service and expertise as a realtor. He really took the time to make sure I was understood the entire process and went above and beyond with his communication and service throughout the entire sale. Ryan had a great strategy from the very beginning and followed through with the plan which made it a smooth and stress-free process. He also has a great network of contractors that were able to complete all necessary work in a timely fashion prior to closing.

Ryan has been very helpful as we search for our house. He has helped us explore different options and see the possibilities in the homes that we have seen with him. He has made a difficult process much easier.

So I had Ryan help me find my first home. He was quick to help me find a home that I was looking for. He had to meet me on random days and random times to help me work around my work schedule for I ran long hours and could only meet with him later in the evenings. Ryan did not complain once and was very responsive during the entire process of purchasing my home. He made the process simple and easy to understand. When it came to time to sell my house because of relocation for a new job he made the process just as easy as when I bought it. Once again Ryan worked around my schedule and made the process easy. I ended up selling my house out of state so Ryan keeps my informed with all the updates and any change that needed to be made. He was available 24 hrs around the clock even on vacation. Ryan also was kind and had returned a laundry load of clothes that when I left in the dryer when i left to reach my deadlines at my new job. He mailed to me from WI to Utah believe it or not. He was very kind, reliable and honest through my entire experience. I would recommend he to anyone buying or selling a home whether it's your first or tenth house.

Ryan is awesome. He has helped my family sell 2 homes and purchase 1 one home. My mom wanted to interview 3 relators but after meeting with Ryan first she did not meet with anyone else. He is always available and prompt with return e-mail or texts or calling. He's got a great sense of humor. He helped with staging a lot and even got into some cob webs looking for the internet cable. He's super dependable and we really like him!

Janet A.

Ryan was very knowledgable of the market and was always giving us good feedback to help us with our decision in choosing our home. He made good recommendations during the process such as the home inspector. Ryan followed up with us after we moved into the house and helped us get some electrical work done.

Mohamed S.

Ryan helped our family find a home while we planned a huge move to a new state. He was incredibly thoughtful and remebered so many small (but important) details that we had prioritized for our home search. In the end, Ryan helped find exactly what we were looking for, in a very competitive housing market. We are very thankful for all his help!

Stephanie S.

Ryan helped my wife and I buy our first home which is a new and scary process. Ryan is very helpful and knowledgeable and made this process very easy for us.

Kevin and Christina Lake

He's friendly, responsive, and honest. We've been working with him for a while. It's a trying time for buyers, but we feel good knowing that Ryan is all-in on helping us find a place to call home.

Wagners

Ryan was wonderful to work with and walked us through all the steps of buying our first home in a clear and knowledgeable way. He was a great communicator and was always available to answer our many questions. I have absolutely no hesitation recommending him to friends or family!

Ian and Kathryn H.

This isn't our first time using Ryan for buying a house! He is a great realtor that puts in the work and effort and it shows! He took care of us when we were living in the Green Bay area and moving to the southern Madison area, which isnt an easy task. So much to do from inspections to negotiations and he made the experience less stressful for us! Thank you again!

Renee and Kelly N.

As first time home buyers, it was very helpful to be working with a realtor who was willing to explain everything to us. He was always willing to talk and very responsive to all inquiries. Knowledge of the local market and what a house would be going for was second to none. Would recommend to anyone!

Jimmy B.

Talk about above and beyond! Not only did Ryan expertly guide us through the home buying process in a hot market (Madison), during a crazy time (Covid), helping us land an amazing home quickly but he was there to help when it wasn't his job to be. Just after closing on the new house, there was a freak appliance fire that caused major damage. Ryan came out to meet me at the house after the fire department left. He's continued to be in contact after the sale to make sure we get the house back in good order. Excellent in both quality of work and character...what more could you ask for?

Alison and Nathan S.

Even though we faced numerous obstacles, including a title that the owner wouldn't clear on the first accepted offer, Ryan kept working hard to find a place that was right for me. We have been in contact, mostly by email, since early June. I just checked and I have received 176 separate email messages from Ryan. There were numerous back and forth conversations within each of those threads. Ryan was always responsive, even late at night and on weekends.Thanks Ryan! We did it! :)

Doug G.

It was my first time buying a home, and Ryan made it feel both super easy and very secure. I was hearing horror stories from my friends' first-home-purchases as the process was going on, and Ryan preempted all of these without even being asked. I would absolutely recommend Ryan to anyone buying a house in the Madison area.

Kyle F.

Ryan was fantastic to work with. We are first time home buyers so we needed a realtor who knew the area well and could walk us through the home buying experience. Ryan was able to help make the process smooth, he listened to our wants/needs and responded quickly to all of our texts, emails and phone calls. As we looked at more homes during our search, we began to like/dislike certain details and features and Ryan listened to those details. We are very excited to be in our new home and thankful to have had such a great realtor to work with!

Tim and Jess M.

My husband and I have worked with Ryan multiple times. Most recently he helped us in buying our home in this tight market. Ryan was very responsive, which is key when houses are moving so quickly. We were often able to see a house the same day. More importantly, Ryan is very knowledgeable of the market and real estate world. He plays his cards well, aggressive but within reason. He is personable, yet maintains a professional relationship. I highly recommend Ryan Spiess.

Jeff and Leslie S.

We cannot thank Ryan enough for helping navigate us through the first time home buying process. He was very knowledgeable and went above and beyond. We appreciate his responsiveness to our questions/needs, patience, expertise, and willingness to advocate for us. We would certainly recommend Ryan to anyone, especially those who are first time homebuyers.

Allison and Bill D.

When we started looking for a house, we had an in-person meeting with Ryan within one day of requesting more information. He immediately got our requirements for home location, size, and price, began his own searches, and set up automatic notifications of new listings. Since we were first-time home buyers, he walked us through the entire process before we even started looking. We never had to wait more than 1-2 hours to for him to return a missed call, even on weekends. After we had looked at everything available on the limited market, Ryan searched in areas we hadn't considered. Eventually, his expertise helped us buy one of the nicest houses we looked at (out of more than 50), for less money than several similar listings in the area. We would highly recommend

Oscar D.

Ryan has excellent connections and knowledge of the sun prairie area that was really helpful in getting our home and feeling good about it. Very responsive and helpful

Mark V.

Ryan is a fantastic realtor. We had a really strange schedule at the time we were searching for houses. He was always flexible and helpful. He knew the area very well and gave us the pros and cons of all the suburbs/neighborhoods. My wife and I were moving from a small town and had never dealt with an aggressive market like Madison before. His help was needed and invaluable during our search and purchasing. We found the perfect home at the right price and are very happy

Scott and Ashley W.

Ryan is not just looking to make money he actually wants to get you the best property/house for you or your family. If you want a worry free process then I would highly recommend Ryan. He’s already been recommended to friends and they had the same experience. There’s no one else I’d go with.

Tyler H.

Ryan is an excellent realtor. He is very knowledgeable, and sold our house very quickly - and over asking price at that. He is also very friendly, and never pushy. My husband and I have used Ryan as a realtor twice now.

Kristi and Ross B.

Ryan is great! We got paired with Ryan through Zillow and were very pleased. He knows the Madison market extremely well. When we began our house hunt, we were not quite sure what we were looking for, but Ryan was extremely patient and took the time to understand us.

Alicia L.

We just wanted to write a quick note to say thank you for everything you have done to help us achieve our dream of becoming homeowners. We sincerely appreciate your patience and kindness and absolutely LOVE our new place!! We hope you to see you around the neighborhood sometime. Best wishes to you and your beautiful family!

Matt & Stephanie Payne

Ryan had great patience and understanding when we were in “worry mode”. He put in a lot of time to make the house purchase a reality. Thanks!

Brad and Julie K.

He sent us links to all kinds of services to the city we were buying in, and offered personal experiences and go to people if we had more questions.

Diane and Dale L.

From the first house he showed us, to the closing on our home, he was attentive. He went above and beyond our expectations.

Wally and Andrea R.

I would give Ryan 5 stars for my experience in purchasing a home. I would use him, and the company he works for, again.

Andy M.

Ryan was available at all times, which was appreciated because of my work schedule.

Amy and Shawn B.
