As a first-time home buyer, there was so much I didn't know. Ryan was an absolute gem, helping me navigate the whole process. He was there for me every step of the way, helping me find the perfect place, negotiating the price, helping with references, and even following up post-buying. He was never pushy and always treated me with respect and patience. I have recommended him to everyone I know, and if I buy another house, he will be the first person I turn to for help!

5 Stars – Outstanding Experience with Ryan Perque
Working with Ryan Perque was an absolute dream from start to finish. From our real estate purchase to leasing out our previous home, Ryan handled every step with unmatched professionalism, deep market knowledge, and genuine care for our goals.
Ryan’s expertise in the New Orleans market is evident in everything he does. He guided us through the purchase of our perfect home, offering smart, data-driven strategy every step of the way. He was incredibly responsive—quick to answer questions, thoughtful in his advice, and always two steps ahead. Thanks to his negotiation skills and insight, we ended up with a better deal than we imagined possible.
On the leasing side, Ryan made that process just as seamless. He found us a fantastic tenant and secured a great monthly rent, coordinating all the details with the same diligence and precision.
We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Living in our new home feels like a dream, and Ryan played a huge role in making that happen. We recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone looking to buy, sell, or lease in New Orleans.

Ryan is a real pro. I live out of state and had minimal time to look at properties. In a matter of hours, he had it dialed in and found the perfect home in the perfect area, which fell under the budget I had set. I cannot say enough about his knowledge of New Orleans. In addition, I cannot believe everything he did prior to the closing. He set me up with an insurance agent, plumber, electrician, and handled everything with my bank. He exceeded all expectations of what an agent does or should do. Lastly, Ryan is a cool dude. Seriously. I want to hang out with him. I expect we will be hanging out together in the future. Thank you so much Ryan!!!

I was a first time home-buyer and Ryan was helpful throughout the process to keep my informed. He was easy to communicate and work with and seemed to have good knowledge of the area. I would recommend him to others looking to purchase a home in New Orleans.

Ryan is a very friendly and knowledgeable person. He was a pleasure to work with. He asked what I was looking for in a home and was able to customize a list of properties based on my wishes and requirements. He guided me through the process with ease. Any questions I had for him he knew the answer and if he didn't, he found out for me within minutes. I highly recommend Ryan Perque as your realtor. He is very professional and willing to help you with any of your home buying needs.

Ryan was a great help in all aspects of finding and purchasing my first home. Ryan has extensive knowledge of the neighborhoods in New Orleans. He is a "hands off" type agent when going to visit a potential home. He will let you come to your own conclusion; however, he will also make you aware of any red flags he identifies. He puts in countless hours behind the scenes making sure the contract, inspection, and closing phases go smoothly. I would highly recommend using Ryan Perque.

Ryan was relaxed and on the ball; quick to respond to any questions or concerns, as a first time home buyer the process was a breeze with Ryan on the team!

We liked him so much we used him to sell our house Uptown (which he helped us buy in 2017) and buy our new home in Bayou St John. Ryan helped us relocate to our dream neighborhood. We mentioned to Ryan over a year ago that we were interested in being near the bayou. He kept us up to date as houses came up for sale, kept us updated with homes coming up for sale near the home we owned, helped us develop a strategy to sell our house in less than a week and get our offer for our new home accepted. We couldn't be happier!

There are not enough superlatives to describe what a pleasure it was to work with Ryan. He had a great deal of knowledge about the local market, and found us a number of houses that met our needs, desires and budget, from which we picked a house that is just about perfect. His skills during negotiation, and then in the inspection/leadup to closing, were all we could have asked for an more. His contacts with insurance agents, mortage lenders, inspectors, and all the others that are part of buying a house made it all clean, simple, and less expensive than we were expecting. Just a great experience. Best of all, he is a really good and generous person. You won't do better.

Ryan was professional and knowledgeable about the market throughout the process. He also went above and beyond the scope of work to help arrange remediation assistance during the sale process. The negotiation was also particularly stressful and Ryan was calm and helped navigate each step. I highly recommend him if you are looking to buy or sell!

We are so happy we had Ryan helping us with our purchase in New Orleans. Not only is he totally professional and knowledgeable about the New Orleans area and neighborhoods, but he also went above and beyond to make the whole process super easy since we were buying from out of state. He knew exactly what we were looking for and went to bat for us to help us get the perfect condo for what we needed. We can’t say enough about how great the experience was :))

Finding the right home in New Orleans was a challenge, but Ryan was super helpful every step of the way. Thankfully, I followed Ryan's advice and ended up in my top pick. He definitely knows the market, which was especially helpful in getting the offer accepted. Admittedly, you'll not meet anyone as responsive and persistent as this guy. He was on it -- especially when closing. The lender and seller weren't the greatest, but Ryan kept things moving all hours of the day. I would use him again in a heartbeat.

This is the third time Ryan has been my realtor. He is proactive, tireless, and focuses on all the details that make selling and buying a home a smooth and worry-free experience. He is a true professional. There is no other realtor in the New Orleans area for me!
"
- Deb M.

Ryan was a great help! He was always there for us during our hunt for an apartment. He was super fast in returning our calls and texts. Always had the information we needed. If we ever buy or sell property he will will be our agent! We highly recommend him to anyone who needs a realtor .

Could not say enough nice things about Ryan! My boyfriend and I decided to buy a house in New Orleans while living out of state, and Ryan made the process as seamless on his end as possible - always very responsive with the answers to any and all questions that came up. Now we are happily enjoying our new home and it's all thanks to Ryan getting us to close on time! We will definitely be recommending him to any friends looking to buy in the future.
"

Ryan was very receptive to our wants. He really listened to what was on our list and didn't show us any properties that weren't a real fit. He really helped us negotiate our offer quickly and we are so happy! Was also great with getting inspectors arranged efficiently. No nonsense!!!
"
- Celeste G.
"
Ryan was extremely informative in the entire process of finding a home. He was forthright and honest about every property we visited. He didn't filter his opinions based on better price in my budget verses higher price I would manage. Ryan made my first time home buying experience educational and informative. I've learned a lot through this process that I can honestly say is due to his diligence and honesty. It did not matter what time of day I contacted him, he responded accordingly. As a personal note we spoke the same language (meaning our grammar and way of explanation being blunt) which made talking with him comfortable and reliable. I would obviously recommend him to friends if asked. I thank him for finding me such a great home in my budget with what little knowledge I had coming into this venture.

Ryan is an exceptional real estate agent and we would use him again in a second. He is thoughtful, good-humored, has the patience of a saint, and really went out of his way to help us figure out what kind of home would satisfy our unique needs, budget, and taste. He is friendly and accessible, and as a first-time home buyer, really took the time to walk me through all of the complicated ins and outs from finding a property to financing to getting through inspection to closing. Need a guy? He's got one, be it a lender, termite inspector, etc. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the local market and has his ear to the ground on how neighborhoods are changing and developing. He always has his clients' best interests in mind and is simply a pleasure to work with.

You’re in great hands with Ryan! I can honestly say that out of the many agents we’ve worked with Ryan is the best. He is very knowledgeable and professional. We purchased a home at the same time as selling another. It was a very difficult and tedious process. Ryan’s expertise was like a calm in the middle of a storm. He addressed any concerns and advised/advocated for us throughout the entire process. We were indeed very lucky to have had Ryan as our agent.

This guy made life easy for us. Knowledgeable, on top of every detail. A real pro. There were 2 realtors involved, but Ryan did ALL of the work, and was happy to do it. Highly recommended!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ryan worked very hard on our behalf, located and took whatever time was necessary to show us the homes that fit the specifications we set out for him. Once we selected one of the homes Ryan thought would work and made an offer, Ryan was really very diligent in making certain that the process proceeded through all the required stages -with a very impressive attention to detail. We were able to close on the home at a price-point far closer to Ryan's estimate of true value than the Seller's asking price. A good job by a caring pro.
"

Would recommend Ryan for any real estate matter under any circumstances. Ryan went above and beyond the call of duty on many occasions assisting me in purchasing my new home. He was loyal, responsive, knowledgeable, and effective in managing the process and handling an incredibly difficult deal through to closing. Ryan's expertise, tenacity, and sheer endurance were key in making sure the process went through. His very personable demeanor and great sense of humor were also very valuable along the way. Highly recommended, and I could never have asked for better.

Ryan Perque was extremely professional. He understood the type of home I was interested in and offered me numerous opitions to chose from. This was my third home purchase and it was by far the most pleasant experience I had in purchasing property. I would recommend Ryan to anyone who is purchasing or selling a home.

I don't event know what to say other than if you are looking for an exceptional real estate agent in the GNO area reach out to Ryan!! He knows his stuff and will ensure you get what you want without pushing you to make a purchase. Thanks Ryan! You're awesome!
"
- Andrew R.

Ryan is flexible, patient, and responsive, and he knows the area very well. After some near misses, he showed me a new listing in his own neighborhood, which I had ruled out early on because I never thought my budget would allow it. Against all odds, however, I was able to snag the place. I bought my first house, at an affordable price, in a dream neighborhood. We even got a sizable credit for repairs and modifications. And it never would've happened without Ryan looking out for me and guiding me through.

Ryan is truly a gem! As my buyer's agent he immediately made me feel at ease with the process and expectations. Super knowledgeable, patient, and motivated he works hard to find your dream home. Ryan's communication skills, expertise, and tailored client treatment seamlessly translates into representing the best interests of his clients and a confident home-buying experience.
"

Ryan is totally customer oriented. He anticipates needs and provides suggestions and solutions. He's not afraid to tell you the truth - even when it's not really what you want to hear. He's always responsive, considerate, friendly and concerned.
"

As first time home buyers, we appreciated how thoroughly Ryan outlined the process for us. He told us exactly what to expect every step of the way. It never felt like we were in a situation he couldn’t help us navigate. We especially liked how candid and honest he was with us — he was always upfront and looked out for our best interests. We’re so happy with our experience!

Simply the best! Once we began our house search in New Orleans, we went through several agents. Although some had good local knowledge, none had the local knowledge, the network locally of other listing agents (very important in a hot market), the patience and expertise to deal with customers both unfamiliar with New Orleans and first-time home buyers. Ryan worked within our very limited schedule over a couple of months -to show numerous properties, make back up offers on some that we missed (through no fault of his), and finally find one that met all our needs. I believe most agent would have given up. Given how fast properties move in the Uptown/Magazine St. area of New Orleans, we had to move fast and a big part of that was the trust we developed in Ryan. As a former Army Officer and West Point Graduate, my husband qualified for the VA Loan, and although a loyal USAA customer, Ryan even found a local lender which could not only process a VA Loan faster than USAA and get a better rate. In terms of negotiating a good price, our appraisal came back higher than the offer. He had some of the best quality local inspectors that could work on tight timelines. He was with us every step of the way, and we highly recommend him for anyone moving to New Orleans, particularly if you are interested in the Uptown area. At closing he even had a bottle of chilled champagne for us. Ryan truly went above and beyond, and we will absolutely use him in the future for listing and other purchases and would recommend him without reservations to our closest friends, family and anyone looking for an outstanding and trustworthy agent. We look forward to seeing him and his partner at our house-warming party.

I have had difficult experiences with realtors, and have never enjoyed them. Ryan Perque was a blessing. Not only did he make my experience easy and enjoyable, he became a friend in the process. He actually works for his clients, is not all talk but action, goes the extra mile when he has to, gives unbiased advice and not afraid to tell you what you need to hear even if its not what you want to hear. I was not an easy person to work with because I was not looking on one specific area, so I had Ryan looking and running all over the city, and he did so willingly. He helped me find the home I wanted, not the sale he wanted. Generally, I love people with character and integrity, and trusting Ryan Perque was easy to do because of such traits. I would recommend Ryan to my best friend.

I can't say enough wonderful things about working with Ryan! He not only listed and sold our home but negotiated an amazing deal on our new home. Selling your home can be one of the most stressful situations and Ryan made the entire process so easy. I never had to worry for a moment because he always had our best interest at hand. He worked so hard for us and kept in constant communication! Several times during the buying process I was discouraged about finding the right home and Ryan made sure that I was 100% satisfied with the home I was buying. He even took it upon himself to do a separate plumbing inspection so we wouldn't have trouble down the road. He's a tough negotiator and fought hard for us throughout the process. I hope we stay in the beautiful home that Ryan found for us but if we ever have to move I won't be stressed because Ryan will handle everything and find us a house we love just as much!

Ryan helped me recently as an out of US buyer. Which meant there was much more process explaining to do! I was impressed by the personal service I received. He went out of his way over and above what was required and even assisted me in finding suitable contractors to help in my house renovations after I closed. Assisting me after the purchase had completed for some time with various non purchase issues with sincere pleasure. He was patient with me and helped me swiftly find and close on exactly what i described that I was looking for. Which was a fairly exacting brief and architecture style not that common in the Marigny, I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. The best thing for me in the process with Ryan was that he was not pushy, very patient and calm and he was only clearly interested in making sure I purchased exactly what I was looking for. Its really nice working with a genuine agent who does exactly what he says and with no falseness, I would recommend him to anyone.

Ryan has been our agent for two transactions in Uptown, New Orleans. He is hands down the best agent we've worked with globally. It's rare to find such talent available. If you have the ability to work with him - do it. We bought our primary residence from here a year ago, and had a very specific location and budget in mind. He has also helped us buy our first investment property, and which is already profitable after a month. Any agent can help you find a listing, but a great agent is critical after you are under contract. Both times Ryan has come through in spades - inspectors, contractors, insurance brokers, local mortgage advisors (and not just a few go to, but 3 or 4 of the best - and we have shopped). If you are moving to New Orleans or thinking about listing your space, reach out to Ryan today for an initial conversation. We will continue to use him and consider him more than an agent - he is a friend. Rock solid, trustworthy and still has the 'hustle' to do right by his clients. Call him now, you won't regret it!

Ryan was a pleasure to work with from the first moment to the last. He was able to sell our house with a minimum of drama, which we really appreciated. He's quite knowledgeable and steady, and most importantly, he got the deal done. I couldn't recommend him more highly!

Absolutely the best out there!!! Ryan has helped us on completing 3 real estate transactions. He knows the local market, understands the nuances of real estate in Louisiana, and is just generally a great, trustworthy individual. He has fought and worked hard for us. Ryan has our highest recommendation.

I had been on the hunt for several years for a large piece of property with an existing home within the city limits on the East Bank, something that hardly exists. Ryan was able to find me exactly what I was looking for less than 10 minutes away from my current house. He is professional, knowledgeable, well-respected and hilarious. The closing fell during hurricane Ida and he was able to make something that should have been hugely stressful as easy as it could be. I adore my new home. Ryan did such a great job that I hired him to sell the house I was moving out of. I would not hesitate to work with Ryan again and would recommend him to anyone.

Ryan Perque is an exceptional real estate agent who made my home buying experience truly seamless and stress-free, all while I was out of state. Likely not the easiest client, I had a two day search window to find my new home. Ryan booked 36 appointments within the two days and made sure we stayed on schedule throughout. Ryan not only helped me find a wonderful house but also guided me through every step of the buying process. His attention to detail was especially invaluable as inspections came up - attending all on my behalf and having precise reports sent to me within clear explanations. He was always available to address my concerns and went above and beyond to ensure that I was comfortable and confident with my decision, helping to guide me through negotiations and more. If you are in search of a dedicated, knowledgeable, and reliable real estate agent who will make your home buying journey easy and enjoyable, you would be remiss to look beyond Ryan. I wholeheartedly recommend Ryan Perque to anyone in need of a top-notch agent in the greater New Orleans area.

Ryan was great. He helped us sell our home and buy a new one. He lined up the buy/sell so that we had time to move out of our current home and into our new one over a weekend. He helped us look at about 30 properties and went above and beyond to make sure that we were satisfied. In the process he made sure we understood every opportunity or disadvantage about properties by doing his research and providing us with reasonable feedback. We wouldn’t go with anyone else as a realtor. He is professional, clever, and knows the market well. Thank you for helping us find a great home for our family and taking us to all of the properties during the process. Ryan is the greatest!

Ryan was outstanding to work with. He answered all of our questions quickly and worked hard for us. He was knowledgeable about the area and worked with the owner to make sure all of needs were taken care. He was friendly and professional and makes each client feel as though they are the most important. I cannot say enough good things about Ryan. If you need an agent, Ryan is the way to go!

Working with Ryan was an absolute delight. My wife and I had told Ryan a while back that we were thinking of purchasing a home, but weren't quite ready yet. He asked if we'd like to be set up with periodic emails of listings that matched our requirements and said that if we needed anything, we shouldn't hesitate to reach out. We reached out from time to time with questions about the housing market, the mortgage approval process, and other details about house buying, and Ryan answered with thorough detail and expertise, without ever making us feel pressured. Eventually, we were ready to start looking at houses and Ryan helped us navigate open houses and showings. We found the house of our dreams, around the corner from our daughter's school, and Ryan helped us prepare and present an offer. We knew there were going to be multiple offers, and in fact, there were nearly a dozen! Thanks to Ryan's sage advice, we came out on top (without going over the next best offer) and secured the house. We'd recommend Ryan without hesitation.

After Ryan found me my new dream home, I used him to list the house I was living in. He was instrumental in helping me to navigate dealing with incredibly difficult buyers, multiple delays with their financing and an arduous closing. He made a nightmare situation tolerable. He is a consummate professional, incredibly knowledgeable and well-respected. He is witty, funny and easy to get along with to boot. I would not hesitate to work with Ryan again and would recommend him to anyone.

Ryan is dedicated and 100% committed to helping me find the perfect home. I couldn't be happier with the house I bought! He made the whole process and experience very easy. He went above and beyond with any questions or requests I had. The great thing is that you can tell how much he loves his job and his commitment to make his clients happy. I will definitely be recommending him to all my friends and family.

Recently purchased a property in Uptown with Ryan's assistance. The property had a lot of complexities in regards to renovation financing and repair and Ryan was invaluable in navigating through those issues. I highly recommend him!

Ryan is by far the most accommodating, knowledgeable Realtor I've ever worked with. He was able to get us our dream home even when we lived across the world. He never once allowed our distance or time difference to get in the way of the process. What could've been an extremely stressful situation was made easy because of Ryan. I highly, highly recommend working with him.
