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's lovely wife Mary Ann is also his business partner and mother to their adorable 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 you at ease.

He stays up to date on industry trends and changes through continued education. His clients gain valuable insight from Tim's experiences. Tim is very familiar with the entire Central Coast, and understands what to expect throughout all types of real estate transactions. He never stops learning, and this allows him to offer his clients valuable insight, whether they are buying or selling a primary residence, or looking to expand into the investment market. 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 is the current sales manager of a new 62 home subdivision within SLO County.

Seller reviewTim is the best of the best. Wouldn't want to work with any other realtor. Have gone through a few sales and purchases with Tim, and he provides excellent service every time. Very happy with the experiences and results.

Seller reviewI just feel SO BLESSED to have found Tim, he fulfilled everything I could hope for. I knew nothing about selling a home and Tim was especially patient and helpful in many ways, I'm out of state and he even drove out and helped the old tenant get her mail out of my locked mailbox. I am so grateful to Tim Riley, not only did he de-escalate a legal situation with overdue tenants, but he coordinated all my needs with professionals that were excellent, like • the team who hauled away all the items left behind, • the cleaning crew, • a really great deal on new carpeting that went in immediately. • He published AMAZING photos which lead to 11 offers, one of which was all cash and $53,000 over the asking price! • Tim also saved me money in ways like buying and installing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors on his own dime, instead of hiring it out! Unbelievable! He went over and beyond, communicated well, answered all my questions, I can't believe how seamless everything went and I can't recommend him enough!

Buyer reviewTim was really great to work with! As people who had just moved to town, his knowledge of the area and willingness to help us purchase an affordable home was amazing. He is a great realtor to work with, both kind and caring and an aggressive negotiator. We are looking forward to working with Tim again when we buy our next home!

Buyer reviewTim is the best. We have bought four properties with Tim in San Luis Obispo and would not use anyone else. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell in this Market.
