Ryan Young

Ryan Young is more than a realtor. He’s a fierce competitor. He’s a community man, Toronto born and bred, the youngest of four boys from a High Park family that still calls the neighborhood home. He’s a family man: a father and proud husband to a furniture business proprietor, who in keeping with family stages many of his properties.

It is these qualities—familial, community, competitive—that make Ryan a unique and admirable part of the Toronto real estate landscape. For more than a decade, he has been not only working within Toronto neighbourhoods, but helping them grow in finding families and businesses—proud and passionate people—to populate their main streets, sides streets, and cul-de-sacs.

His work has resulted in record-breaking selling prices, but more importantly, he has provided foundations for families and communities to grow and prosper in a complicated yet incomparable city. And “status-quo” and “stasis” are not in Ryan’s vocabulary; he is constantly pushing himself—fueled by that competitive impulse—to expand the breadth and boundaries of his knowledge and experience, which helps himself, his clients, and his community grow.

But Ryan knows that communities are built not simply by populating them with happy homes, but with successful businesses. Ryan works intimately with a variety of investors and investment groups to continue to build Toronto in every aspect of its economy.

Ryan is a full-experience realtor. He has personal and professional hands-on experience in everything from renovations to home inspections to mortgage shopping to flipping properties to furnishing homes. He has always had one foot in the boardroom and one in the mudroom—able to speak “contractor” and “banker” with ease and excellence.

He is an epic negotiator.

He is a closer.

Buying and selling homes and properties isn’t an occupation—it’s an experience, and Ryan Young has cultivated a reputation for perfection and passion in Toronto real estate. To invest in real estate in Toronto is to become a part of a unique community—to find not a house, but a home. Not an address, but a community. Whether you’re buying, selling, or both, Ryan Young provides singular insight and expertise, maximizing potential, profit, and peace of mind.

Testimonials

We were moving to Canada and buying our first home in Toronto remotely, from the UK. We worked with Nick and Ryan. They were incredibly patient with our many questions about Toronto neighbourhoods and housing stock, and about the processes of negotiating and buying, and they gave us fantastic help and advice. Because we were overseas, Ryan visited numerous houses for us and sent really helpful video tours of them. He has experience as a contractor, so he also had excellent advice about their condition. He secured a lovely house for us in a great location at under asking price. Then, after visiting it a second time, he negotiated a further price reduction due to some maintenance issues that did not appear in the home inspection. We are delighted with the outcome and would wholeheartedly recommend Nick Pavlov Real Estate Group.

— Ryan Gatner

Ryan did an incredible job for us. His commitment to helping us find the right home was unwavering and his knowledge of the marketplace very impressive. Not only does Ryan possess an incredible intuition with respect to the Toronto market, his extensive experience in home renovation and construction proved invaluable. Ryan’s attention to detail and passion for high quality workmanship ensured that we avoided multiple properties with concerning structural and/or design issues that would have otherwise gone unoticed. This is the type of insight that puts you in your dream home with clarity and confidence
— Iain and Ashley Fleming

Ryan recently helped us purchase a home in Toronto and the experience was exceptional. He was able to find us a property to meet our needs and provided extensive knowledge and support throughout the process. Ryan patiently took the time to answer all our questions, gave us lots of useful information and worked very hard to negotiate and get us our house. Highly recommend!
— Jill

When purchasing a house with Ryan Young you do not feel like a customer. He is kind, patient and always goes above and beyond. His knowledge of the market and of renovations is vast, yet it is shared freely and meticulously. He is very attentive and always has time for you. Ryan took the intimidation out of buying our first home and made it exciting. He does not steer the process but empowers you to make educated and confident decisions
— Chris Pierson

Ryan did a fantastic job from start to finish with helping us find our first home! We were outbid in our first attempt at a purchase in Toronto, and felt that we would not find another suitable unit in our price range. But Ryan added us to his list of property matches, and within days, we found a property that fit what we were looking for. As a matter of fact, instead of the 2 bedroom condo that we initially bid on, Ryan found a 3+ bedroom condo for us instead! He negotiated well for us and saved us thousands of dollars off of the asking price. He comes highly recommended by both my wife and I. Thank you Ryan for all of your work on our behalf. We literally would not be homeowners at the moment without you
— Yuri & Lisa Smieska

Ryan Young was our real estate agent and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. As first time home buyers, we had a lot of questions and concerns but Ryan went out of his way to make us feel comfortable. He is extremely knowledgeable about renovations and gave so many great suggestions and guidance. We will definitely be recommending him to all of our friends
— Soraya Benaissa Teacher

I had such a great experience working with Ryan and I navigated being a first-time buyer. Ryan always made me feel completely confident, let me trust my instinct, and was generally a pleasure to work with. He was patient until it was time to move quickly on an offer! Ryan (and his colleague Rachel) were great as they helped navigate a complicated arrangement (buying a condo unit from an estate while the will was in probate) and went above and beyond to ensure the process was smooth. I never want to leave this wonderful condo, but when I do, I look forward to working with Ryan and the team again!
— Bailey Greenspon

We cannot thank Ryan Young enough for his patience, knowledge, and professionalism throughout the process of purchasing our first home. We have been working with Ryan for over a year to find the perfect home, and he always made himself readily available whenever we needed information or wanted to view a house in person. Frankly, his level of responsiveness is unparalleled.

Ryan is a very experienced agent whose vast knowledge of the GTA market gave us terrific insight to comfortably make a huge decision. Every time we viewed a new property Ryan would perform a methodical inspection, looking for signs of problems and commenting on the quality of construction and the finishes, from the furnace to the foundation. It’s really nice dealing with someone who not only knows the market so well, but has extensive experience with residential construction and renovations and has a real passion for what he does.

The best part about working with Ryan was that he was always more focused on answering our questions, giving us good advice, and finding homes that met our needs than he was on closing a deal.

Perhaps most importantly, we both trust Ryan very much and would highly recommend him. We will definitely be engaging his services again in the future after we outgrow our new home.

Thank you Ryan!
— Cristina Campbell

My husband and I were very happy to have found our agent, Ryan Young, of Pavlov Real Estate, and his colleague, Rachael Ryan! We had a hard time selling our condo due to some poor decisions made by a former Board of Directors, and were struggling with an agent who was disrespectful and didn’t use up-to-date technology. When we read about Pavlov Real Estate and looked at the positive reviews, we decided to switch, and never looked back. Yes, there were still issues with our condo’s status certificate, but Ryan patiently helped us to understand them. He was extremely professional, arranged for attractive online marketing materials, held well-attended open houses, and even loaned us some of his own patio furniture for our balcony because we didn’t have a matching set! Within only a few weeks or re-listing our property, and during a pandemic, Ryan was successful in making the sale. We highly recommend Ryan, Rachael and Pavlov Real Estate!!
— Lauren W.

I originally met Ryan when he helped me purchase my home in 2016. My experience with him was fantastic so I recently called him when my rental property became vacant. I was worried about finding tenants in these times and was not sure if I should sell or rent again. Ryan took the time to answer all of my questions and concerns and I ended up deciding to keep the property! He did exactly what he promised and found great tenants for my space. I was honestly shocked at how much work he put in to helping me – from lining up a contractor to do minor repairs to recommendations on new appliances. Despite it being a rental listing, Ryan treated the transaction as if it was a multi-million dollar sale! I would highly recommend working with Ryan as he is extremely knowledgeable, very attentive and above all he truly cares about his clients.
— Anya Sobkowska

Working with Ryan for the second time was just as positive, if not more so than the first. After buying a home with Ryan, we called him a few years down the road and worked with him to sell it and buy another house to accommodate our growing family. Ryan was responsive to any request we had at any time of day. He provided sound advice, based on his experience and his understanding of our family’s needs and values. When it came to negotiating and seeking the best outcome for us, we couldn’t have asked for a better result. We would work with Ryan again without hesitating and recommend him as a dedicated, attentive, personable and knowledgeable real estate agent to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.
— Kim and Jon Scratch

Great service, very professional and knows the Toronto market better than anyone. I would recommend Ryan to anyone looking to list or buy a home in Toronto.
— Kyle Stadnyk

Ryan Young was our realtor and he was fantastic! He has a lot of experience and was able to guide us through a seller’s market, with helpful information and insights. He is very professional and was a pleasure to work with. He also has lots of contacts for banks, contractors, etc. We would highly recommend him and will be using him in the future!
— Joanna Vatavu

Ryan is the perfect partner in real estate. He is extremely knowledgeable about the market and construction and was able to address all our questions about investment and rental properties. He is very responsive and professional and definitely someone you want to have on your side. He has been a pleasure to deal with and an all around nice guy. We would highly recommend working with him!
— Patricia DS

Ryan was great to work with! We are so glad we chose him out of the realtors that we were considering. He was professional, organized, diligent, thoughtful and always available when we needed him. He guided us through the process of buying our first house, and provided valuable advice and insight into the world of residential real estate. It was a pleasure working with Ryan and we couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you.
— Alla and Andrew

Ryan Young guided us through the purchase of our house and we are very glad he did. His knowledge of the market is second to none. He is also a very hand man! The house we bought is old and his practical knowledge of renovations left us in no doubt about what we were purchasing. He replied to all our texts promptly no matter what time we contacted him. You won’t go wrong if you work with Ryan.
— Philip and Maeve

[Ryan’s] polite and professional introduction was perfect for us, who as first time home buyers, did not quite know where to begin. Throughout the home buying process, Ryan was prompt, available, responsive and as informed as possible. He has diligently booked showings, sent property details, comparable and corresponded with selling agents regarding any and all questions or requests that we have had. We would gladly recommend Ryan to any of our friends or family looking to purchase real estate in Toronto.
— Jonathan and Kimberly

In my experience, [Ryan] has an above average level of knowledge about building structures and renovations. He is astute in assessing both actual and market values of the many properties we looked at. More importantly, he is a highly skilled negotiator. I was impressed with his ability to manage a situation that resulted in my getting a desirable property for a reasonable purchase price against the competition.

This is our second experience with Ryan, and we will be retaining his services again in the near future.
— Michelle Somers

Ryan and Nick [Pavlov] are seasoned Realtors and are known to handle niche client situations. Their expertise came in handy when dealing with multiple projects, successfully executed by their team. […] resourceful in helping their clients with other spectrums that fall along a purchase or sale of property. This sets them apart.
— Krupal Shukla

My wife and I sought Ryan’s help in finding a house after he found my brother a beautiful one in East York. The entire experience was great from start to finish. Ryan is professional, diligent, and pleasant to work with. He curated a series of houses at the outset to help us get a better idea of what we were looking for. He showed us anywhere from three to five houses a day — sometimes in both the west and east ends of the city. Ryan has considerable experience in home renovation and was able to identify both good and shoddy work on houses, which certainly helped with our decision making. He is also good at pricing houses. We paid under asking price, ending up with a house we are over the moon with. Even months after the sale, Ryan has been kind enough to get us information from the listing agent and seller regarding questions we’ve had about the house. He made our first home-buying experience a great one!
— Peter Altosaar

Ryan was awesome. We are first-time investors in real estate and he patiently took us through our very detailed questions. The property we got met all our needs and his instincts were great. If that wasn’t enough, he spent a lot of time answering our questions about being a new landlord even after the sale and rental was complete.
— Vani Pasupathy

I was very fortunate to have the help and guidance of Ryan Young as I was looking for my first place! He was very pro-active and ensured that the process of moving into my first condo was as smooth and stress-free as possible. I absolutely love the location that we found and it was within my budget too! I would highly recommend Ryan to my family and friends!
— Kathleen Kurman

Ryan was always quick to respond to any emails, texts, and calls, and gave us great confidence in his skills as he helped us to navigate the crazy Toronto real estate market. Ryan is very knowledgeable about renovations and was able to point out things we may not have noticed, which really helped us to assess when viewing properties.

We admire Ryan’s tenacity and perseverance – we really felt like he was fighting for us and rooting for us – just the kind of person you want on your team! He made sure we were comfortable and took great care of us, helping steer us in the right direction to find the perfect home for us. Thanks for everything! We will definitely be recommending the Pavlov team to our friends and family.
—Heather Corner

When I first met Ryan, I was very impressed with his knowledge of the Toronto real estate market. He completely understood my needs, was patient and found me the perfect home (that ticked all my boxes and was in my price range)! Then Ryan went above and beyond. He helped me rent out my existing property and found me an amazing tenant in less than a week. While clients are simply a commission for many real estate agents, Ryan showed genuine kindness and care. I look forward to working with him again in the future.
— Anja

We have sold two homes and bought one home with the Pavlov Team. We couldn’t be more satisfied with the knowledge, expertise and level of service we received from Nick, Rachel and Ryan from beginning to end. Their organizational and management expertise made the selling process easy and stress-free. We handed them the keys and they took care of any renovations, repairs and staging required to prepare our homes for sale. We sold for over asking and within less than a week. As a buyer, I was really impressed with the Pavlov Team’s care and attention to ensuring that we didn’t buy a house with potential pitfalls. When we found the house we loved, they guided us through a multiple bid offer and we came out on top on the first bid.

Nick, Rachel and Ryan are the experts you want working for you. They are efficient, responsive and dedicated. I couldn’t recommend them more highly. They are IT!
