Seller

Ryan and the rest of the Burns team are a pleasure to work with. They know the market and the community; they have a deep network of brokers, service providers, and homeowners; and they are both professional and fun to spend time with. They're great negotiators and partners on getting deals done. I couldn't recommend them more highly.

Burns Team was great. They were very involved in the whole process. The team is very knowledgeable about the area and worked hard to make the deal happen.

I had the pleasure and good fortune of meeting Ryan Burns at property in East Hampton. He was hosting the open house there. The property turned out to not be a good fit for me, but I was so impressed with Ryan's professionalism and assertiveness that we entered into another deal in which he listed and then rented one of my Southampton properties, earning a new high for me in rental income. I attribute that to his acumen of the market and client, combined with his eagerness to satisfy his clients and foster long lasting business relationships. Additionally, the photos he took of my property truly are the best ever and really showed its charm and beauty. For any homeowner looking to rent their property, or sell or purchase, or for any client looking to rent, I highly recommend you contact Ryan. He will certainly match you to your needs. I guarantee he will become your "go to" realtor for any property investments you wish to consider. - November 2019

I was first put in contact with Greg in the spring of 2015 when I put my house on the market to rent for the summer months. He was very friendly and professional from the moment we met. Within a few days the house was photographed and on his website. I explained to Greg what type of tenant I was looking for (ie no sharehouse situations) and he was very understanding. He was showing the house within a few weeks, and was really honest with me regarding what type of tenant he felt they would be. This made me feel very comfortable. After several showings, he found the perfect tenant. The negotiation and contract signing was absolutely seamless. During the summer, a few issues arose with the house and Greg was extremely helpful. He is friendly, hard working and professional, and I will definitely be using him again this season. - October 2016

Alex

Ryan was great to work with. He grew up in the area so is very well connected and has been a great resource for us throughout the process and even after our closing by connecting us to contractors in the area. Super patient as we saw over 20 homes with Ryan and we never felt like we were being rushed or pressured. Ryan was always very responsive, available and flexible. He came recommended from a friend of ours and we can see why. Our 3 year old is even a fan, he continues to ask if he is going to see Ryan Burns when we are out East! - October 2018

Joe

I worked with the Burns Team twice. The first time I was looking at possibly selling my house in the Hamptons and buying another house but ultimately decided to renovate my existing house. The second time I asked them to find me a rental while my house was under construction. Both the houses they showed me when I was considering buying and the house they found for me to rent showed knowledge, appreciation of what I was looking for, and integrity and honesty throughout the process. - December… I worked with the Burns Team twice.

Ryan was great. He was very involved in the whole process. Ryan is knowledgeable about the area and worked hard to make the deal happen. Ryan showed me many houses before I decided on the one I finally bought. He was very patient and knew which houses I would be interested in. And, after the purchase, Ryan was also able to help put me in contact with local contractors etc. Overall, Ryan was a pleasure to work with. - April 2016

Greg was amazing, he found us the perfect house for our summer in Montauk. He was great dealing with us and bridging the gap between us and the owners. We gave him a tight budget and he was able to make it work and then some. He was quick to respond and was on top of everything from start to finish. - April 2017

Matt is very easy to work with. He is from the area, knows it well and is super responsive to questions. He is a good listener and try to find just what your looking for in the price range you request. He also knows what things are worth and can advise on offers in the tricky Hamptons market. - September 2020
