About Ryan Cochrane

We were searching for a home in Washington and reached out to Ryan to see if he had suggestions for an agent we could trust. Given the market is so competitive and fast paced, we wanted someone super reliable. The agent Ryan connected us with turned out to be incredible. We got our dream home in under a month, and throughout the process Ryan was always available and supportive, helping us through all the typical homebuying stresses and answering questions. We got super lucky not only to have an agent on the ground, but Ryan helping us out the whole way.

There is not enough space to write all the wonderful things I’d want to about Ryan. He helped my partner and I buy our first home, which should have been overwhelming but he guided us expertly through the process taking away much of our stress. He went above and beyond providing us great guidance throughout the entire process. Ryan is very friendly, knowledgeable, and prompt – highly recommend!

Ryan was absolutely amazing for my partner and I. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. We were new buyers and Ryan was helpful, patient and extremely knowledgeable. Ryan walked us through the entire process and went out of his way to answer any and all questions we had...and there were a LOT of them! He was responsive and tremendously reliable for booking appointments. I would absolutely recommend Ryan to anyone looking for a realtor!

Ryan was an absolute gem of a realtor. I looked for a place to buy in a very tough market and I had pretty specific needs. It took many months to find what I wanted, and I gave up a few times. It every time I was ready to look again Ryan was right there helping me and answering all my questions. On possession day he calmed me down, went the extra mile making sure I had everything I needed and continued to communicate with the sellers realtor to get a missing set of keys. I highly recommend him as he always goes above and beyond to make sure you get great service in finding what is usually the most important purchase you will ever make.

Ryan has been absolutely fantastic. He helped us navigate a very tough real estate market in Victoria with the end result of securing the perfect home at the right price. With the current market so popular and so fast moving - this is not an easy thing to accomplish! Ryan was professional, knowledgeable and very patient - he kept us on track having clearly listened to our original goal as we ended up with a home that ticks every box on our list which in such a frenetic market I had almost pushed to one side! Thank you Ryan! I would recommend Ryan to anyone starting their property search in Victoria.

Ryan went above and beyond in guiding us through all stages of buying and selling in a very fast-moving market. He helped us find the perfect home in a great neighbourhood by listening to what was important to us, and being realistic when it came to viewing a variety of properties in Victoria. He also had great advice when it came to selling our current home, and was extremely prompt and professional in all his communication. He is also well-connected in the realty community and was able to provide excellent recommendations for a variety of services. We highly recommend Ryan for your real estate needs!

Ryan was just the Realtor I was looking for. Very friendly, responsive and knowledgeable. He priced and sold my Victoria condo for me with no problem and navigated the multiple offers very well to get me the best price. He also had excellent tips on local lawyers and services I needed to get through the process, which was a great help since I don't live in the area. I would definitely use him again!

It was a pleasure doing business with Ryan. He was always friendly and professional, and extremely responsive when contacted. What we really appreciated was his candour around pricing and the market. We always felt supported and that he had our best interests at heart. We highly recommend his services!

Ryan helped us purchase our first home during the height of travel restrictions in March/April. This certainly was a challenge with us being out of town and not being able to view in-person. Ryan was very accomodating and helped us through multiple remote viewings and bids prior to finding the winner.

Ryan was my realtor as I hunted for a home in Vic as a first-time buyer. From the start, he was super friendly and never made me feel my 100lb dog was a difficult obstacle (like previous realtors had). He knows the island well (super helpful as I did not) and made the process really easy and fun! He was always quick to respond to my requests despite his busy schedule and was so positive we would find my dream home-- important since house hunting can sometimes leave you feeling impatient & disappointed! I also didn't have a car at the time so Ryan and Ashley were very accommodating, always being able to pick me up for open houses. During negotiation...

We were so glad to have Ryan guide us through the fraught process of buying our first house. His relaxed and friendly demeanor put us at ease when we first started looking and he encouraged us to take as much time as we needed. Once we found something we liked he was 100% engaged and committed to helping us to develop our offer and conduct due diligence. We look forward to working with him again when we are ready for our next move.

Ryan (and Ashley) were lovely, competent, professional agents who provided a rare combination of confidence and warmth that really worked for us in looking for a home. We especially appreciated Ryan’s capacity to vision what “can be” in a space, combined with a very shrewd and calculating eye to what are financially worthwhile decisions (and what are not). We felt supported and listened to every step of the way - and were given very honest and direct opinions when asked. Ryan is also kind and has a great spirit that’s infectious - along with his more practical and strategic approach to real estate. We highly recommend him.

Ryan helped me find my first condo! Ryan was able to answer all of my questions immediately, making the process of buying my first home and made it extremely easy for me. One thing I really appreciate about Ryan is that he was able to understand what I wanted and find something even better than what I described. Ryan is not only very professional but also easy to talk to.I would absolutely highly recommend his services if you were looking for a good realtor!

Awesome to work with - incredibly responsive around the clock. Really listens to what you want and is never pushy. Strongly recommend!

I was so lucky to work with Ryan. He is everything you could possibly want in a realtor - incredibly responsive, very knowledgeable about both the properties and their surrounding areas, and 100% honest with you. His expertise was so appreciated at every step in the process, from helping me determine what exactly I was looking for to guiding me through an offer. Bonus points: He's also super fun to look at property with - my family and I had a great time at every place we saw!

It was truly a pleasure to work with Ryan as my real estate agent in Victoria. He provided me with timely and valuable advice on the sale of my condominium. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to my family and friends.

I cannot speak highly enough of my experience with Ryan. From start to finish he was very responsive, kind, and a constant professional. He listened to my specific wants and needs and truly delivered. He was able to walk me through the process and make my purchase as stress free as possible. Thank you Ryan!

Very hard working and dedicated!! You can tell he obviously loves what he’s doing. Would highly recommend!

Ryan is and exceptional Realtor. His research and work ethic combined with a kind nature is standout. We were looking for a second home and being from the mainland Ryan was our ears and eyes. He made us feel we had nothing to worry about when it came fine print and history of everything we looked at. We would recommend him and use him again in the future. He made the process easy.

Ryan was an AWESOME agent! We were very fortunate to have found Ryan who assisted us in finding and purchasing our home! Even in difficult situations, he was patient, working very hard and solved problems right away. He always replied to our emails swiftly even on weekend evenings! Ryan had a really good understanding of the local market and we would definitely use him again next time we buy or sell a home. Highly recommended!

We sold our home in the Estevan neighbourhood of Oak Bay in May of 2021, using Ryan as our seller's agent. Ryan was very responsive, communicated well, and friendly. He proposed a approach to selling our house that worked very well; by the time it was listed with MLS, there were already interested potential buyers ready to see it, and the house sold well above asking (which was also higher than we expected) in less than two days. Ryan managed the process very effectively; we knew at all times what was expected to happen next. We would certainly use Ryan again, and have no difficulty recommending him to others.

Ryan was amazing helping us get our new lakehouse. He's incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and prompt. Everything was easy and low-pressure. Thank you!

Ryan delivered excellent service. Being new to Victoria he gave very worthwhile advice and was very patient but always available if we had had any questions or concerns. My wife and I really appreciate all the work he put in and we love our condo.

Ryan is amazing. My husband and I just bought our first house through him, and cannot imagine doing it with any other realtor. Throughout the entire process, Ryan was a calm, super friendly, and very responsive expert. He made the process easy and stress free. We recommend him to everyone. Hugest thanks, Ryan!

Ryan has always delivered his BEST performance in sport and now he has taken that skill and applied it to The Agency. All the years of training as a high performance athlete has given him the edge in his passion area of real estate. He is knowledgeable, calm under pressure, professional, responsive and an excellent communicator. We would highly recommend Ryan for your next property adventure and can't wait to work with him again!

How lucky for us that my husband and I chose Ryan Cochrane as our realtor! He is a pleasure to deal with, responds quickly to queries, answered all our questions in a timely fashion, walked us through all the properties that interested us and basically made shopping for property from a different province--thanks to the pandemic and travel bans--relatively painless. His patience, in-depth knowledge of the area, good humour, thoughtfulness and professionalism were much appreciated. We look forward to working with him again.

We cannot speak more highly of Ryan as a real estate agent. He is trustworthy, patient, punctual and professional. We trusted Ryan had our best interest in mind throughout our whole house-hunting process. He provided us good insights on where to look, when to be flexible and when we should walk away. We are so grateful that helped us find our beautiful home and would highly recommend him to others who are looking for an agent who they can trust to find their dream home.

Ryan recently helped us purchase our home in Victoria, and I couldn't recommend working with him enough! He was incredible the entire way through the process - from helping arrange viewings at convenient times, to helping scrutinize potential properties, to making offers and the negotiation phase. He was very responsive to all our communication. Most importantly he made us feel that he understood what we were looking for and helped us to find it - we never felt rushed or pushed to settle, if anything Ryan actually encouraged us to realize that what we wanted WAS out there and that we just had to be patient. We would certainly use him again and would...

I was extremely happy working with Ryan Cochrane and highly recommend him for several reasons. Not only does he know the market well, but he is personable, punctual, extremely hard working and responds very quickly to any correspondence. He took the time to learn what our needs and preferences are, and showed us a variety of homes to help us sort out our priorities. When our dream home came up on the market, he messaged us immediately and arranged for us to see it before anyone else had the opportunity. We put an offer in thet same day, and won a bidding war without overpaying because Ryan is a skilled negotiator and advocated strongly for us. My hu...

Working with Ryan on our recent home purchase was an absolutely wonderful experience. He was professional and courteous throughout our time working together and can be counted on to provide an unbiased opinion.

I have been through the home buying process on a number of occasions and highly recommend him for all of your real estate needs. Thank you so very much Ryan.

No question was too small or insignificant, and no ask was too much. Anyone who is looking for representation either buying or selling, should stop searching and call Ryan.

We hired Ryan to sell our oceanfront cottage and couldn't be happier with how hard he worked to represent us. We appreciated his updates and communication and how quickly he would get back to us if we had questions. Ryan makes it easy to trust him with the entire process and we would happily buy or sell with him in the future. You will not be disappointed having Ryan represent you in a purchase or sale.

He walked us through each step of the process to ensure we understood everything until we finally found the right house for us. I highly recommend Ryan to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. Thanks Ryan!

Ryan was great. We were looking for a condo that met very specific accessibility needs, which Ryan immediately understood. He went around to the condos on our viewing list in advance to confirm whether they would meet our accessibility needs, which saved us a huge amount of time and frustration. Of course he helped us find something that is just perfect for us. I highly recommend Ryan.

Ryan helped us to buy a home that Lynn was unable to visit during the pandemic. He provided her a virtual walking tour of the home and answered every question she had, also offering insightful advice on improvements to make it "ours". He is an excellent communicator, extremely helpful, very friendly and open, and very knowledgeable. We recommend him without hesitation.

We have known Ryan personally for years and this was the first time using his services as a realtor. His knowledge of the city is excellent and was so well prepared for each showing.

His knowledge of the industry is nothing short of impressive and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ryan to anyone looking for assistance in buying or selling a home.

Ryan was a great realtor. He persevered with us through the uncertainty and difficulties of a house hunt during a pandemic, and we finally found our dream home. He then worked with us on a competitive bid and helped us close the deal on a home we never thought we'd have. Couldn't be happier!
