Ryan Buckingham
Realtor
After more than two decades of service in the U.S. Coast Guard, he built his career around integrity, discipline, and a commitment to serving others. Today, he brings those same values to real estate, helping buyers and sellers confidently navigate one of life’s biggest decisions.
As a retired Coast Guard Senior Chief, he has a special connection to military families and understands firsthand the challenges that come with PCS moves, changing duty stations, VA financing, and transitioning from military to civilian life. His goal is to take as much stress and uncertainty out of the process as possible while making sure his clients feel informed, supported, and well represented from beginning to end.
Based in Virginia Beach, he combines firsthand military relocation experience with extensive knowledge of the Hampton Roads real estate market. Whether his clients are purchasing their first home with a VA loan, relocating to the area, preparing for their next assignment, or selling a home they’ve loved for years, he approaches every transaction with honesty, clear communication, and a commitment to getting results.
His service doesn’t end at the closing table. He believes great real estate is built on relationships, trust, and being a resource his clients can count on long after the transaction is complete. When a move takes them outside Hampton Roads, his national network allows him to connect them with trusted real estate professionals wherever their next chapter takes them.
Outside of real estate, he enjoys staying involved in the veteran community, volunteering, spending time with his family, playing pickleball, working out, and just about anything involving sports.
For him, real estate is another opportunity to serve—and it’s a privilege to help military members, veterans, families, and members of the community find the place they’ll call home.
