Ryan Khatkar
Sales Representative
Ryan joined the team because Blair Blanchard Stapleton has been established as the go-to commercial real estate brokerage in Hamilton for over 30 years. He saw more of their property signs each year, thought the owners were great people and these things contributed to his decision to join. Ryan likes working in the Hamilton/Burlington market because it makes him feel like he's contributing to a brighter future for the city. Ryan specializes in industrial sales/leasing and land assembly and disposition.
He has a Bachelor of Arts in Geography which helps him see the bigger picture when assembling plots of land for a client. A unique skill he has is that he got his black belt when I was younger and this helps keep him disciplined without letting emotions influence his decisions. The most valuable asset he brings to the table in building client relationships is his view of treating any client as he would treat his closest family members.
Born in 1992, he was raised in Stoney Creek until August, 1998 when he moved to Ancaster where he has resided since. He went to Sir Allan MacNab High School and McMaster University graduating in 2015. He loves the communities / markets he works in because Hamilton has some of the most “down-to-earth” people in the world. He has traveled to other countries and each time he returns to Hamilton he appreciates how generous everyone is and the willingness of individuals to have a friendly conversation.
Ryan's free time is mostly spent hiking, playing basketball, or producing electronic music on the computer. He frequently visits Vancouver and Kelowna to see friends who also hike frequently. On weekends you can find hi, driving around the city getting lunch from one of the many vegan options the city has to offer (Odd Burger, Democracy, MaiPai, or Rise & Above Pizza and Wings).
