“Ryan was incredible to work with. He's been our family agent for years and will continue to be. We're grateful for how Ryan knows us personally, cares about our success, invests the time to make sure we find the right house for us, and makes himself available for any questions throughout the entire process. We consider Ryan not only our agent, but our great friend. Thanks for everything!”

“Ryan has been a friend for a while. We have watched how he has marketed homes for other clients over the years and knew his dedication to the OKC area as well as the specific area we live. His working knowledge of the REAL value of our home as well as those around us made this an easy decision to work with Ryan on the sale of our home. He brought his team in and staged it making it look better than we had it, making it "Ryan-ready" and then received multiple offers over asking price. Do yourself a favor if you want to sell. Get in contact with Ryan and his team today and let them make your home "Ryan-Ready" to sell for top dollar. Do not be afraid of the process, Ryan makes it all very easy!”

“Ryan is so calm; he calmed me being around him. He made the process of purchasing a home rather seamless & with no frills, to boot. He had previously worked with my sister and my brother-in-law on their recent home purchase. Thus, I had a great referral. He's a damn good Realtor and first & foremost, a gentleman. Thank you, Ryan! Stephen.”

“Ryan made the process so easy for me. I knew nothing about anything going into it. He also was very supportive when I would being my dad. He understood how important it was to support your child buying their first house and was very polite in all transactions. I've recommended him multiple times to people when they ask for relators. He also found me a great lender who made my process so easy. They worked together really well to stress off of me.”

“I can’t say enough about what a godsend Ryan was to our family. He came highly recommended by a dear friend when I was at my complete wits end. I am a pretty “extra” person and he was super patient and always available to calm every nerve. Our move was a crazy rush situation with a lot of weird factors and he made it all easy. There is no dollar value for the peace of mind he provided.”

“In selling our dad's home, we needed an agent who was not only knowledgeable of the market, but was willing to work with us, even though both my sister and I live out of state. We also wanted someone who had a plan for marketing, was willing to listen to our concerns, and was not high pressure. Ryan Hukill in particular and The ShowMeOKC Real Estate Pros were recommended to us by a friend. After interviewing other agents, we felt Ryan listened to us and was more in tune with what we needed, and we weren't wrong! We loved the app that was available for us to see how frequently appointments were made to see the house and to see the feedback after those visits. We appreciated how quickly we heard back from Ryan Hukill if we emailed or called and left a message. We could not be happier with our dealings with both our real estate agent and with the title company who finalized the sale. It was great that many of the papers could be signed electronically, and it was very convenient that a notary was arranged to go to my sister's home, so she could sign the other papers. It made it so much more convenient for us that neither of us had to physically be present for the closing! We appreciated the quickness with which all of the closing documents were emailed to us and the money was wired to the correct account. We were also quite impressed with how quickly the property sold, and over the holidays, no less! Everyone we dealt with was pleasant, efficient, and very helpful.”

“Ryan and Sheila are awesome, they work really well as a team and always had quick answers to my questions. It's one thing to just get an answer to the question that's asked, but it's another thing to feel like you're actually being educated on the whole home buying experience, and they are amazing at educating you and making sure that you are well taken care of!”

“Ryan sold our home in 2 weeks for more than we had originally planned on listing it for in the first place! I think one of the main reasons he is so good at selling is his ability to market your home and get potential buyers in it and interested.”
