I cannot say enough positive and appreciative words about Terry Ryken and Team in the way they handled the sale of my Ocean Bluff Paradise in Hope Ranch after I became a widow and through difficult times. Terry has a very generous spirit and is extremely thoughtful always anxious to please and make things happen.

    He is on top of his game with beautiful photography and advertisements everywhere, and when he has good ideas for caravans or open houses he makes them happen.

    It is a sincere pleasure to recommend Terry Ryken of COMPASS who specializes in the Santa Barbara, Montecito, Hope Ranch markets to handle your real estate needs.

 I want to thank you for the opportunity to have been part of the team to sell Bajada Lane.
I greatly appreciate your assistance and integrity and willingness to stand in the gap between the Buyer and Seller to avoid any misunderstandings and to protect our goods during the transition. This was very commendable and I so appreciate working with you.
 I must also send my compliments about your colleague Judit. She was a calming voice in the chaotic last moments of this deal and she represents your brand with respect and confidence. You are fortunate to have such a dedicated and quality team member!
I look forward to helping you in the future whenever you need design or staging help.

The dust has started to settle on moving into our new home and my wife and I would be remiss if we did not commend your agent Terry Ryken for a job well done. Terry represented us in the purchase of 7744 Kestrel Lane, Goleta, CA, which closed escrow 27 May 2016. His professionalism and caring manner kept the transaction running smoothly from start to finish and we couldn’t be happier with the results. He even purchased a new homeowners insurance policy for us, which we used to repair the water heater.

Terry’s first concern is that his clients are happy and as veterans of many real estate negotiations we would not hesitate to use him again. We would recommend him highly to all. Due to his knowledge, kindness and generosity Terry is a true gem for your company’s team.

We cannot say enough good things about working with Terry. My company had relocated us to the Santa Barbara area and it was clear from the beginning that we had made the right choice. His professionalism and expertise made for a quick and comfortable experience.

Terry’s advocacy for our best interest was always reinforced by his attention to detail and emphasis on quality. He’s a disciplined agent with a strong and personal sense of responsibility and integrity.
We couldn’t be more happy!

His expertise in the Santa Barbara Real Estate market helped us find the perfect property in Montecito that we love to call home. He genuinely cares about the happiness of his client and strives to provide all information possible to make the right home choice.
