Shannon and Leigh went above and beyond to sell both our FL properties and we are so appreciative of their persistence, guidance, thoroughness, professionalism, responsiveness, and integrity. Although the multiple transactions could have been very challenging, Shannon and Leigh kept everything well-organized and kept us informed at every step in the process. We reside out of state, making these transactions more difficult, however, Shannon and Leigh made the miles between us appear seamless.

Our transactions were completed in a very timely and efficient manner and we were very thankful to have them representing us. In the future, we will be sure to call on Shannon and Leigh for all our realtor service needs in SW Florida! We highly recommend them if you are in need of a great realtor team that produces results!

Shannon contacted me about selling my Florida lot. It had been on the market before with another real estate firm and they were not able to sell it for me Shannon felt like he could get it sold. I was skeptical since the last realtor wasn't successful. Shannon made good on his word and the property sold and closed quickly. Thank you Shannon and Thomas Ryan Real Estate.

I'd like to highly recommend Jim Miller for your property management needs. I am more than impressed with his professionalism and knowledge of the SW Florida rental market. He always keeps me informed every step of the process, providing quality applicants for my rental property and efficiently following through with the details like thorough walk-throughs, deposits, cleaning, taxes, etc., so I can enjoy being a landlord without the headaches. Well worth it!

I just want to say THANK YOU to Shannon and his team for selling my lot in South Gulf Cove. Shannon and his team were very professional to deal with! Leigh and Heidi always answered the phone with a SMILE! They always responded quickly to any calls I had and I know they all worked hard not only to list my lot lot but more importantly to sell it. I would definitely recommend them for their integrity, professionalism, customer service and hard work!

Our experience with Thomas Ryan Real Estate was very positive. They met all our expectations and returned phone calls and emails in a timely fashion. The listing was very effective which lead to the quick sale of our condo. Special thanks to Shannon and Leigh. Would strongly recommend this company.

Jim Miller and Thomas Ryan Property Management helped me purchase my first investment property, and have been managing the property ever since. Jim, and the team at Thomas Ryan are very helpful and well-informed about the property selection process and finding and placing the best tenant they possibly can. If you are looking for an investment property, or already have one and need property management, I could not be happier with this company. If I could give more stars, I would.
