Our Mission

Choosing a real estate professional that knows more than what they read off a “sell sheet” is important when buying a home.

That is what separates RYAN Realty from other Realtors in the Greater Rochester area – they know many of the properties from the ground up!

Charles F. Ryan II was born and raised in Rochester and established the brokerage arm of homes by RYAN after many requests for advice on buying and selling property in the Rochester area.

He and his father, the late John H. Ryan, were responsible for developing and building many of the most sought communities in the area such as:

Tobey Meadows and Tobey Crescent

Tobey Court, Tobey Brook, and Tobey Woods

Tobey Estates and Clover Estates

The Margaret Woodbury Strong Estate

3000 East Avenue Condominium

Tobey Village Office Park

The Barn Bazaar

And now, Joe Ryan, the 5^th Generation in the family business, spent the last 18 years making his mark by becoming a perennial Multi-Million Dollar producer and learning the important facts of quality home construction from his grandfather and father.  This is priceless information needed when buying or selling your most important investment in life…… and they don’t teach that in real estate school.

Joe Ryan continues to carry on the tradition of quality service to all clients by handling every aspect of the transaction personally.  As a RYAN Realty client, you will always be talking directly to your agent in each stage of the buy or sell cycle.  We realize that you carefully chose and entrusted your agent with a big investment decision….and at RYAN Realty we respect that, so you will not be “handed off” to any assistants, specialists, coordinators, etc.

We offer large company capabilities….with unparalleled attention to detail that only can be delivered by a private, boutique, and family-owned company – isn’t that what the discriminating client is looking for?
