Hi, I'm Ruth Bruno!
Ruth Bruno Real Estate
Hey, I'm Ruth!
Real estate is my third and final career, and the one that turned out to be my true calling. I came from the marketing world, got my license six months before COVID, and never looked back.
The stats:
- 190+ families helped in just 8 years.
- Top 1% in Orange County, Orange Coast Magazine 4 years running.
- Every home sold helps relieve hunger through local organizations I support.
At the heart of Ruth Bruno Real Estate is a simple philosophy:
I'll maximize your home's value, simplify the process, and protect you every step of the way. That's the whole promise.
When I'm not selling homes, you'll find me at an Irvine crosswalk in a bright vest. I'm a City of Irvine Crossing Guard, and giving back and enjoying all Irvine offers, I love this community.
For me, success is not just measured by homes sold, but by the relationships built, families helped, and the difference
we can make together in our community.

Team Behind the Scenes and Events
It truly takes a village to run a small business, and I’m so lucky to have mine!
Lisa, Mitchel, and Michelle help keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes, from communication and marketing to events, organization, and all the little things that make a big difference.
Their help allows me to stay focused on what matters most, my clients, my community, and giving back. Together, we keep things moving, stay creative, and make sure every detail gets the care it deserves (and we manage to laugh a lot along the way too!).
Grateful every day for my amazing team who make Ruth Bruno Real Estate feel like family.

Sincerity, attentiveness, and commitment to our clients ensure you feel supported every step of the way. Success, for us, is not measured by awards but by the trust and satisfaction of the families we serve.
What others are saying
As an experienced Irvine Realtor, Ruth made the entire process seamless, even from a distance. Ruth helped us shop virtually, visited many homes on FaceTime with us, and gave great input about building quality, school districts, and local market dynamics. She went above and beyond to ensure everything fell into place, including working with the seller's agent to be flexible on timing of close. She exceeded our expectations every step of the way. -Kirksey Family
We recently had the pleasure of working with Ruth Bruno Real Estate and the entire experience was absolutely exceptional. From the very first conversation, Ruth was warm, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about the market. She took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and helped guide us through every step. Ruth was always available to answer questions and made the process feel smooth, even during moments that could have been stressful. What really stood out was Ruth’s attention to detail, her honest advice, and how genuinely invested she was in making sure we found a home we truly loved. -Y. Kobak
