Ryan is a knowledgeable data-driven professional who is connected to many different networks from his involvement throughout the Greater New Orleans Community.
Ryan began his immersion in Real Estate earlier than most, with three generations of family ties, from brokers, asset managers, to firm founders, in the local and regional Real Estate Industry. Real Estate has long been a common topic at family gatherings. Early childhood memories include touring properties with his father and hearing his uncle and grandfathers industry war stories. These childhood influences primed Ryan for the family footsteps he would eventually follow, while also carving his own career path in the Real Estate Industry.
Early experiences in Residential Property Management with Latter & Blum primed Ryans eventual Commercial Real Estate career in the GNO. There he expanded his foundation of experiential knowledge through firsthand observations and interactions with Multifamily property operations. Ryan also more finely tuned his internal compass and geographical knowledge of the local area while fostering relationships with agents at L&B branches citywide.
Ryans career path veered from a Residential to Commercial focus after he received a CID scholarship toward what would be a niche-affirming CCIM 101 course. He joined NAI Latter & Blums New Orleans office and began turning heads as a rookie commercial agent, recognized in his first year by the Commercial Investment Division of the New Orleans Metropolitan Association of REALTORS for sales and leasing production in excess of $2.5 million, corecipient of Largest Retail Sale, and for being one of two Rising Stars. NAI Latter & Blum also recognized Ryan as the Rookie of the Year in 2012.
Ryans professional approach to Real Estate negotiations and customer service continues to evolve with the industry. He has closed an increasing number of investment property transactions via sealed bid offerings, through which he continues to develop an ever-growing database of buyers, investors, and brokers. He continues to pursue collaborations with out-of-state brokers looking for a connected agent with a nuanced understanding of the local markets.
Its worth noting that Ryan has also spent much of his free time pursuing other professional and community leadership opportunities. Such experiences offered Ryan opportunities to
foster a sense of camaraderie, purpose, and connection with the local community, its needs and their potential solutions.
