 Ryan Sandstrom

Harcourts The Garner Group has officially welcomed a powerhouse to its ranks: Ryan Sandstrom, a well-connected local with a sharp mind for real estate and a heart firmly rooted in the Bend community.

Based in Bend’s coveted NW Crossing and Discovery West, Ryan isn’t just working the local market—he’s living it.

“This is where my kids go to school, where we recreate, where we’re building our life,” Ryan said. “I want my clients to feel like they’ve got someone who’s truly part of the community they’re buying into.”

Ryan brings more than just local insight. With a background that spans working alongside engineers, attorneys, and government agencies, he’s handled complex deals involving everything from easements to construction headaches.

He’s walked the tricky paths, solved the hard problems, and now brings that depth to Harcourts The Garner Group.

So, why Harcourts?

For Ryan, it was simple: alignment. “It’s not just the location—it’s the culture.

The leadership is hands-on, the support is next-level, and there’s no ego in the room. Everyone’s rowing in the same direction,” he said. “It’s refreshing.”

That collective mindset—collaboration over competition—is exactly what Ryan was seeking as he takes this next step in his career. Known for his adventurous spirit, he’s ready to scale his business in bold, creative ways—whether it’s showing listings by motorcycle or connecting with clients through Bend’s vibrant music and outdoor scene.

“Ryan is the kind of agent who fits right into our DNA,” said Shelley Griffin, Broker and Co-Owner of Harcourts The Garner Group.

“He lives and breathes the Bend lifestyle, and his commitment to family and community mirrors everything we stand for.”

Expect to see Ryan everywhere—from the trails to the stage to your next open home.

Welcome to the team, Ryan. Bend’s in for a treat.
