Testimonials

I was introduced through a friend, and as an expat receiving support for the first time, I truly appreciated how kind and professional the service was. Ruth Bruno was especially helpful in clearly organizing the situation in a way that was easy to understand, even for someone new to the U.S. She also guided me on key points for negotiating with the property owner and communicated smoothly with my company on my behalf. I am very grateful for her support and would gladly recommend her to other expats in the future. Thank you very much!

Ruth with Ruth Bruno Real Estate, Orange County Realtor, helped sell our (my brother's) home that has been in our family since 1951. We had searched for an exceptional Real Estate professional who also gives to our favorite charity, Forward Edge International program: Sell A Home, Save A Child. FEI provided Ruth's contact info and from the moment we met her, we KNEW she was not only exceptional at her profession, but her compassion for others, her diligence and encouragement to provide the best outcome for the home and value outshined any other RE professionals we had interviewed to represent the sale of this home. She empathetically understood the emotional ties to a family home of 75 years as well as the needed updates and obstacles that we faced. Due to her incredible insight into the market and professional contacts that provided the work needed to get the best market value for the home, the sale FAR EXCEEDED the value of the home we had believed it was worth. It sold in 7 days in a market that usually is 30-45 days. We couldn't recommend anyone higher that Ruth Bruno!

Ruth was absolutely a joy to work with. She held a meeting to understand my goals for selling my house, she stayed connected with me while I was deciding which realtor to use and then once I selected her, Inwas beyond happy with the results. Ruth is extremely honest which is so necessary when selling a home and she knows what works. She had resources to be able to stage and fix up my house. She was highly communicative through the offer process. I had an offer above asking within a week of putting it on the market. She held my hand though the selling process as it was my first time. I would choose Ruth again because I found her and her teams honesty, communication, and negotiation skills far exceeded my expectations.

Her marketing strategy was incredible. The professional photos, video, digital marketing, and exposure she created brought strong attention to our home, and we were able to get our Santa Ana home into escrow in just 10 days!

We had previously tried to sell our home with another agent and unfortunately it did not sell. After that experience, we were referred to Ruth Bruno with Ruth Bruno Real Estate, and the difference was night and day. Ruth immediately knew what needed to be done to properly prepare our home for the market. She guided us through the process, brought in beautiful staging, and the professional photos and marketing were outstanding. Because of her strategy and exposure, we were able to get into escrow quickly, even during the holiday season. Like many transactions, we had a few bumps along the way during escrow, but Ruth stayed on top of everything. She communicated clearly, kept everyone focused, and worked hard to keep the deal together all the way to a successful closing. If you are looking to sell or buy a home in Orange or anywhere in Orange County, we highly recommend calling Ruth Bruno. We are so glad we did.

Had a great experience trusting Ruth with selling my first home that I had to come back to her to help me with purchasing a second time. Ruth is well-connected, professional, and moves quickly with each aspect of the transaction. We spent around 6 months together looking for a place and she was helpful, and communicative, each step of the way. She gave us a chance to explore several different options and her team worked fast with each offer we put in.
