Wendy was always readily available by email or text. She would pull together showings with less than a day's notice sometimes. We liked that she would give information and answer questions about the different properties and the area directly rather than try to sell us. Wendy is a down to earth person which we also appreciated. We moved to Holland from Illinois and the "process" there is much more formal and has a great deal more steps. Sometimes we did not fully understand the process in Michigan which is why we did not give her 5 stars on that one. Don't hesitate to use Wendy. She's on it!
Wendy showed us several homes over the past year and a half. She was very helpful to our family. She was able to show properties at a moments notice as we were in town for short periods of time as we were out of town buyers. At one point, she was out of town for business but was able to get us into the home to look at it by using one of her associates. Thank you!
Wendy has been an excellent agent. We live in Chicago but looked for a place in Saugatuck so we needed an agent that was very responsive and could show us many properties in a short period of time. Wendy was able to take us around to many different properties in one day and explain the market and give her expertise on the area. Once we found our place she was invaluable in coordinating between the property management company, the agent and different vendors. We cannot say enough good things about Wendy. If you're looking for an outstanding real estate agent she is the ONE!
Mary and I have known and worked with Wendy for more than a decade on numerous properties--as buyers and sellers. She always takes the time to understand her clients needs and wants and is transparent and forthright throughout the sale or the purchase. In our opinion her responsiveness and attention to detail is unmatched on the Lakeshore. She operates with an enormous amount of market experience and expertise. Additionally her honesty and integrity has been evident in every interaction that we have ever had over the last decade. Again--Wendy takes the time to understand her clients needs and wants and in our view--she always exceedes expectations. She is passionate about her work and her clients. She is without reservation--one of--if not the best--Realtor on the Lakeshore.Scott and Mary Remenschneider
Wendy was very easy to work with and very responsive! We both bought and sold a property with her, I thought her knowledge of the processes helped them go smoothly. We were impressed by how quickly she would respond to our questions, and if she didn't know the answers she did her best to find out. We would definitely recommend working with Wendy!

We were out of state buyers and Wendy kept us informed on new properties coming onto the market for many months. When we found the condo we were interested in Wendy helped us through the process from beginning to end. Wendy was always available and always very helpful. She went the extra mile when we had a concern that the sellers did not address which was much appreciated. I highly recommend working with Wendy.
We enjoyed working with Wendy. She was very helpful and always pleasant! There was some frustration with one of the buyers, but we never knew it! Wendy took care of it for us. We will use Wendy for future real estate transactions.Thank you Wendy!
We were searching from out of state, and Wendy's best asset was her knowledge of the area. We eventually bought a home in an area we didn't know at all, but that has proven to be just right for us.
Wendy walked us through the process from beginning to end and was always available when needed and always very helpful. She displayed a lot of local knowledge that made the process easy. She always went the extra mile when she didn't really need to, which was much appreciated. I could not recommend someone more highly.
I found Wendy very quick to reply and consistent with email contacts. Waiting on an answer on a property. I'll update as we go as I don't have negotiation or process experience with her.

Wendy contacted me within minutes of sending my email through the real estate app. Others had basically refused to deal with me until I'd gotten pre-approved for a loan, Wendy informed me that I needed to do this but in the mean time she discussed with me what I was looking for and began sending me listings. Although I work an odd schedule Wendy was very prompt about responding to any messages I would have. Once we got to looking at the houses I was interested in, she was very knowledgeable in all the things that are important, such as furnaces, water heaters, windows, etc. She pointed out things that I didn't even think of. After finding my house and all the paperwork was signed Wendy stayed in contact to ask how the house was going for me (I love it) and if I had any other questions. She's very professional yet easy to get along with. I've already recommended Wendy Ryder to friends.
Very professional. Responds very quickly. Trustworthy. Not pushy. Honest. Pleasant. I have found every other agent I worked with was only interested in a sale and their commission. Wendy was the only professional that served as a real buyers agent. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
Wendy was extremely attentive, responsive and knowledgeable. She helped us find the home we liked in the area we liked and quickly negotiated a price we could afford. Though, we later decided to wait a little longer before buying, when we are ready we will be calling Wendy. We recommend her highly!
Wendy has been our realtor for several homes we have sold and bought. She is excellent in her knowledge of the housing market. Wendy goes above and beyond helping you. She makes the whole buying and selling experience an enjoyable and friendly journey!
Wendy is the hardest working realtor and really cares and wants to sell your property". We are so thankful for her perseverance in getting our property sold.
Wendy went above and beyond what might be expected of a real estate agent. I was selling a rental and was not always present in the area. Wendy would go to the unit and be sure it was in "selling" shape. She did not push me to make a sale if I was not comfortable with the price. She was willing to have any number of open houses if necessary. The advertisement in the local paper was excellent. I would totally recommend Wendy as an agent.
Wendy Ryder was a joy to work with! She was available for showings on short notice, responded to my phone calls & emails promptly, and I would'nt hesitate to work with her again.

Our home sold in two days. Fourteen showings and three offers. Wendy was very professional and was the primary reason the house sold in such a short time.
