South Saint Paul, MN
My husband and I had a great buying experience with Ryan! Its a competitive market so I was shocked at how quickly we were able to find and purchase our dream home. Ryan was great at communicating on our behalf with other realtors and connected us to a fantastic lender and made the whole process way easier than we expected. Very professional, but also a fun and cool guy!
My partner and I recently worked with Ryan on the purchase of our first home, and we truly could not have asked for a better experience. Going into the process, we were very nervous and overwhelmed because we didnt know much about buying a home or what to expect along the way. From our very first conversations, Ryan made us feel comfortable and supported. He took the time to explain every step of the process in great detail, answered all of our questions (no matter how small or dumb they were), and always made sure we felt informed and confident before making any decisions. One thing that really stood out to us was Ryans passion for real estate. Its clear that he genuinely loves what he does, and it was exciting and reassuring to hear him share his knowledge and expertise throughout the process. We never felt pressured or rushed. Ryan wanted us to find the right home and have a positive experience doing it. As first time homebuyers, having someone we could trust made all the difference, and we are so grateful that Ryan was the person guiding us through such an important milestone. We feel incredibly lucky to have found such an amazing real estate agent during our first experience buying a home, and would confidently recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell in the future. When we are ready to sell our house someday, Ryan will absolutely be the first person we reach out to. Thank you, Ryan!
Ryan did an outstanding job assisting us with the purchase of our townhome.

He would go the extra step esch step of the way, and was truthful about the houses we were looking at and if they were something he would recommend buying. He onlu ever wanted the best for us and is someone who i would gladly work with again and refer to everyone that I know who are looking for houses. I would give him 6 stars if i could!
Ryan was super responsive right from the beginning. He helped us look at a home we were eyeing up for weeks.

Ryan did an outstanding job, just as he had done in the past, he helped us sell 2 homes, and buy 2. He is knowledgeable, patient, and flexible, making the process a success! Les and I couldnt have done this without him. He is not only our go to realtor, we consider him a friend!
Ryan was truly a dream to work with. He really knows his stuff and got me the price I wanted when selling a difficult estate. Ryan took plenty of time going over the property with me and we set it at a fair price that he knew it would sell for. He also worked to clean the property and stage it for the photos which turned out magnificent!! You really need to work with him. He is incredibly skilled and would be an asset to you for either buying or selling a property. Edit: He has now helped with our purchase of our new home and his knowledge and professionalism where again on display. More than just knowledge though he is EXCELLENT with his ability to connect on a personal level with his clients. He really cares and works to take care of you and your mental health as this is never a smooth as silk process. I felt expertly taken care of every step of the way. You would be doing yourself a huge disservice to NOT have him in your corner.
Ryan was there through every step of the process to help my FiancA(C) and I find exactly what we were looking for. As we were both first-time home buyers it can be an intimidating process to start. He gave us a great idea of what is for sale within our price range and worked with our schedule to view homes. Although we have closed on our home Ryan continues to be a trusted resource!
Ryan Ecklund did an outstanding job for us. He guided us every step of the way. His marketing expertise paid off in a big way!

Ryans knowledge, professionalism, and unfailing support also helped us find a new home that is perfect for us at a great price. We are eternally grateful. Ryan is an excellent realtor and a really nice guy, as well.
My FiancA(C) & I are not only first time home buyers, but this is our first time living away from our parents as well. I was connected with Ryan through Zillow when I scheduled a tour. From the beginning, Ryan this entire daunting process of looking at & buying a house for the first time fun and easy to understand. Through the entire process, he has always been extremely pleasant and quick to respond. It was clear that he is very knowledgeable about the entire process and I feel like he always had our best interest at heart. I never felt pressured to settle, he showed us a lot of great options, and was always honest about his thoughts. He was great at understanding our wants and needs and showing us properties that were reflective of those preferences. He not only would point out what may need updates but also how we could add value to the property. He made us feel like there were no stupid questions, which was great because we had a lot of stupid questions to ask, lol. He held our hand as much as we needed it through the entire process, and even after closing he has still been easy to reach for any other questions we have. I would recommend Ryan to anybody that was looking to buy a house and I couldnt have asked for a better first homebuying experience.
Ryan did an amazing job helping us find the perfect home. He's extreamly knowledgeable, professional, and kind. I could not have asked for a better realtor.
Ryan was amazing. After a sudden life change I needed to find a place pretty fast. He made the process really easy, worked with my budget and timeline, got me into see places right away, and helped me find my new home. From first viewings to closing was a little over a month.

I cannot recommend Ryan highly enough. We chose Ryan after already having met with another realtor we trusted, and it was 100% the correct choice. As first time home buyers he carefully lead us through every step of the process and let our search take us where it was going to take us with zero pressure involved. He was as patient with us as we could have possibly hoped for while answering every question we had in detail without making us feel overwhelmed at any point. We left the process feeling 100% confident in our home choice and any future home buying protects will be run through him as well. Go see Ryan. You will not be disappointed.
Ryan was an absolute delight to work with. As first time home buyers, my spouse and I were nervous about the process but Ryan made us feel completely at ease. He answered all of our questions fully and never made us feel like we should have already known the answer. He was patient as we searched for our home and helped us navigate the entire process as painlessly as I think is possible. Id recommend him to anyone.
Ryan's availability to help us find a place was always open for showings even across the Twin Cities. We knew the style of home we envisioned buying. He helped answer our most basic questions, to more indepth ones about the property. Ryan made buying feel more relaxed during such a big life decision.
Ryan was professional and detailed in helping me understand what sort of home I wanted. He was fast answering my numerous texts and went out of his way to send me resources that I needed. He led me through the process while never pressuring me. I'm grateful that we worked together.
Ryan made the home buying process less stressful, exciting and memorable. He was always available to answer our questions even if they were minor. He made us feel like his priority and that we felt good about the process the whole way through.
If you are looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, enthusiastic, responsive and an advocate for you, Ryan is the agent you want on your side! Ryan helped me find my very first home and never let me settle for aEURoejust okay,aEUR? he patiently walked me through the process of looking, finding, financing and buying my home. I am so grateful to Ryan and will never even consider going to a different agent when I sell and then buy my next home - thank you, Ryan!
Ryan quickly learns what you looking for and looks for houses that he thinks fits your needs. He is a full time realtor and was very responsive and available for showings. He has knowledge about houses and points out things in houses that most wouldn't think about when considering a house. I would highly recommend Ryan and will use him again if we ever move!
Ryan has been fantastic to work with! His strategic planning on getting my home on the market got me multiple offers over asking in just 2 days! He is very knowledgeable on how the market is trending and suggested the best course of action for my house. I highly recommend Ryan to anyone and everyone for their selling/buying needs!
Ryan handled both the listing/selling and the buying process for me. He was ready and willing to look at houses any time and not afraid to offer his opinion when asked. Ryan was calm and reassuring when I was stressed, and handled all the details of both transactions professionally aEUR|even with a few challenges and unforeseen hiccups. I always felt like he had my back and clearly communicated my options when decisions needed to be made. I would 100% recommend Ryan to anyone looking to buy or sell!
Ryan is, hands down, the most communicative, fierce, supportive, and knowledgeable realtor Ive ever worked with. He made the sale of our home a breeze, kept us informed every step of the way, and always made sure our questions were answered. It was clear he did extensive research into our neighborhood when deciding how to price our house, and we ended up getting multiple offers above asking price- our home sold within 2 days! His communication style is direct, which was a perfect fit for us and helped in the necessary communication with other realtors. We chose to work with Ryan during our most recent relocation and he worked seamlessly with our relo company to make our (very) quick move simple. I cannot recommend Ryan enough! Selling? Buying? Call Ryan.
I purchased a home and my cousin recommended I use Ryan Ecklund. Ryan was very helpful throughout the process, he is very great and prompt with communication. Ryan made everything painless.
We love Ryan! We met with him and immediately we felt at ease and in good hands. He is very knowledgable, thorough, and hard working. When we met with him, he provided honest feedback on our house, putting it on the market and next steps. Everything moved quickly and efficiently. We had a stager come out, then pictures soon after. Our home was on the market a few weeks after we met with him. We had a few items to do on our end otherwise, he would have placed it on the market even quicker. We had 4 offers on our home the next day. He reached out to us and talked us through each offer. Ryan is extremely professional, easy to work with, honest, respectful and an overall wonderful realtor. We would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone. He is fantastic!
TL;DR: Hiring Ryan Ecklund for your real estate transaction is an outstanding choice. Old friends of ours recommended realtor Ryan Ecklund to help us buy a home in the Twin Cities area, and we are so grateful for this recommendation. We moved from out of state, and though we'd been keeping an eye on the market from afar, we really needed someone knowledgeable about our target communities to help us make the right choice about where to live. Ryan helped us navigate this incredibly quick-paced, low-inventory market and, with his expertise, knowledge, and wisdom, helped us buy the home of our dreams. We could not have done this without him. Ryan quickly developed a very good sense for what our family was looking for, and identified interesting prospects the moment they came up on the market. He was always able to meet us for a showing the day a property came up on the market. He was as persistent with this process as we were; we began our house hunt in earnest in early November 2021, and didn't go under contract until mid-February 2022. He earned our trust with his professionalism. He had a very good eye for the structure and condition of the homes we toured, and looked carefully at roofs, windows, and utility rooms/furnaces. Ryan was immediately responsive to any questions we had throughout the process, and made everything move smoothly to closing. There are a lot of realtors out there - the Star Tribune recently published that there are over 22,000 in this great state - but Ryan Ecklund is truly one of the best. Our plan is to never sell this beautiful house, but if we find ourselves needing to make a change, we will only hire Ryan. When we finally convince our dear friends to move to the Twin Cities, we will only recommend Ryan. We've purchased four houses and sold three, and Ryan has been the best buyer's agent we've ever seen (and we've had some great realtors!). I can only imagine how competent, helpful, and reassuring he would be as a seller's agent.
Unfortunately, we only had a short time working with Ryan, but he was impressive in every way. Smart, friendly, responsive, and so knowledgeable about the industry -- everything you would want in an agent. Anyone who works with him will be lucky and I'm sure will have no less than an excellent experience.
Ryan did an amazing job! I would recommend him to anyone needing to sell their home. I was nervous as I never sold a house before, Ryan put me at ease and my house sold for more than I thought it would.
Ryan Ecklund did an amazing job selling our home. From preparing us to be market ready, to his knowledge and guidance, and selling our home in 3 days, great work. Highly recommended.
Ryan Ecklund helped make this experience of buying our dream home such a smooth and relaxing experience. He was extremely knowledgeable about the property prior to the showing and was extremely flexible with our busy schedules. Hands down, best realtor to work with on the Kris Lindahl team!
Was super helpful in search and navigating closing process, while we had others not responding Ryan was always there and even double checked some items before we even thought of it
Ryan was extremely knowledgeable about our area and the entire home-buying process. Not only was he responsive, but he was pro-active in making sure everything got taken care of all the way through closing. Go with Ryan!
Ryan called us to get an idea of what we were looking for prior to seeing homes. He showed us 4 homes and we made an offer that day! Ryan had great communication with us throughout the purchase process.
A+ , Ryan does a great job and is patient and understands what to look for when viewing homes. Negotiations were great & I couldnt be happier with the new home I'm in.
Ryan was great, he traveled all over the metro with us as we determined the areas we'd be ok to move too. That meant traveling all over the northern metro. He was gracious in allowing us to take some time and was there for us during some of the darker moments when an offer wasn't accepted. The whole process of buying and selling at the same time is already hard, scary, and nerve-wracking, but Ryan made that process so easy for us. Thanks again, Ryan!
Ryan was fantastic throughout the whole process of selling our home. He was very knowledgeable on our house price we received several full price offers on our home. The whole process was fantastic. Ryan is a fantastic agent.
Gave an honest appraisal of my house. Got more than asking price. Sold 3 days after listing. Gave good feedback on each offer. When the buyer pushed back after the purchase agreement was signed, Ryan gave good advise for handling it.
Ryan was incredible in all aspects of our sale and purchase. He was very responsive to all my worries and questions. Ryan was a consummate pro for our family. Selling and buying is a stressful and busy experience but Ryan assisted is the entire way. I couldnt recommend Ryan more.
