Personal Profile

Tim Riley was born and raised on a family farm in Northern California where a strong work ethic was ingrained in him. His introduction to real estate came when he purchased a home while still attending his second year of college. He continued to study real estate and decided to dedicate a year to real estate after graduating Cal-Poly. In 1999, he completed his Bachelor of Science degree, majoring in Agriculture Business with a concentration in Marketing. Tim is married to his lovely wife Mary Ann, who is mother to their wonderful boys, Tyler and Bryce.

It's easy to understand why people like working with Tim. His manner is self-assured yet innately humble, with no trace of arrogance or self-importance. He answers questions directly and has a natural way of putting his clients at ease. His own experiences as a real estate investor have given Tim a strong foundation of knowledge and understanding on how best to help his customers achieve their own real estate objectives, whether that be buying or selling their primary residence, or looking to expand into the investment market. He stays up to date on industry trends and changes through continued education, earning him the additional real estate designations of CRS, ABR, SRES and GRI. Tim's clients gain valuable insight from his experiences.

Tim is very familiar with the entire Central Coast, and understands what to expect throughout all types of real estate transactions. Specializing in the county of San Luis Obispo, Tim works with a balanced clientele of buyers, sellers, developers, and investors.

Some of Tim's past accomplishments include: Several Single Family Home, Duplex, and Condo remodel projects throughout the county, lead principle and project manager of two separate condominium developments in San Luis Obispo. Bella Vista, completed in 2008 valued at $4,000,000 and Villa San Luis, completed in 2010 valued at over $6,000,000. Tim was the sales manager of a 62 home subdivision, Oak Haven Village, within SLO County. Tim clearly enjoys new challenges and his vast "hands on experience" often saves his clients money, time, and stress.

Tim maintains a sense of perspective when it comes to his remarkable achievements.

  • Buyer review
    Tim Riley is highly knowledgeable, professional, sincere, personable, hardworking and trustworthy. We live out-of-state and choosing Tim as our realtor was the best decision we made; Tim earned our trust and we became confident purchasing real estate from afar. He went to properties we were interested in and videoed them for us with commentary; it was as if we were there in person. When we were ready to make an offer, he quickly put the paperwork together, looked out for our best interest, and clearly answered all our questions. Tim has built a large network of professional relationships which helped tremendously in coming to contract agreements and kept the sale moving forward to a successful close. Tim's referrals for a lender, homeowner's insurance agent, inspectors, property management company, etc. were outstanding to work with. Moreover, all of the referrals respect and speak highly of Tim which shows he is a person with integrity. We recommend Tim Riley whole heartedly!
  • Buyer review
    We had an incredible experience working with Tim Riley. He is highly communicative, great at setting expectations, and did an excellent job of understanding what we were looking for and weeding out properties that did not fit our criteria. Tim's knowledge of the local area was incredibly valuable and enabled us to find the right home, and his feel for the market conditions helped us to make the perfect offer and negotiate the details of the deal. I would absolutely work with Tim on any future real estate transations in the area!
