Honest, experienced, kind, firm, dedicated,... persistent, Marlene Ruttenberg definitely checks all the boxes and she definitely used her skill set and extremely equipped tool box to get my house sold. The sale of my house had a little bit of everything (don't they all) including a couple moments where I thought the deal was going to fall out of escrow and the sale wasn't going to happen. Marlene dealt with every moment with grace and professionalism. I never felt like she was unequipped or unfamiliar with the path we were on. Having someone who brings so much ability to the sale is very calming and as we all know buying and selling a home can be very stressful so this calm approach is priceless. She knew when to be patient and she also knew when to apply a little pressure. I would give myself 4 stars for my behavior during the transaction and Marlene knew just how to handle my emotions too. Definitely a 5 star treatment from Marlene and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for that next great professional relationship in their life.read more

I had met Marlene a few years back and had... mentioned thinking about upgrading our home, but at that time, it just wasn’t right. Her patience and understanding of our situation only grew our bond closer. Her support and dedication to customer service is infinite - We purchased our upgraded home with her almost 3 years later! Marlene is awesome! The home buying experience can be frightening, but not with Marlene. She is so knowledgeable and walks you through the process every step of the way. Marlene goes above and beyond for her Clients. Regardless of the time of day, she would always respond to my texts/calls. She was excellent, knowledgeable and professional. My purchase was easy and stress free thanks to her! Despite very humble in her ways, my now considered good family friend, Marlene, demonstrates the true definition and value of eminence.read more

Marlene has provided excellent service from the... beginning of the process and continues to, well after closing. She is knowledgeable, approachable, extremely kind, endlessly patient, and incredibly generous with her time. Our experience began in 2018 with the purchase of our first home weeks before giving birth to our 3rd baby. She made the process so much fun and we loved how involved she was every step of the way. Fast forward two years later we decided we needed a bigger home for our family. Marlene put our home up on the market and she sold our house in THREE DAYS...yes three! Not only did she sell our house that fast, it was also sold more than asking price!!!! ? Once we accepted the offer on our first home to sell, she immediately helped us find our forever home?. No matter the time or day she was just a text or phone call away. She always stayed on top of deadlines to make sure both escrows closed simultaneously. Although buying a home can be overwhelming and stressful, it was nice to have a professional like her on our side to get the job done. Marlene is an excellent real estate agent in short words and we would highly recommend her to anyone that needs an awesome agent!read more

Marlene Ruttenberg is AMAZING!!! Marlene is a go... getter. She is driven and motivated. But with all of that she is knowledgeable, kind, caring , helpful and so sweet. From the time we walked through my home together for the first time until the final walk through she was there. She made it seem as if we were her only client and project she had. I know she is extremely busy too! We had difficulties through our transaction and she was there to smooth things over the whole time. She did her best to keep us in the know when needed and handle things they may have caused us stress as much as she could. We closed escrow in 2 weeks time so it was a lot of things in a very short time. Her staff was helpful and kind and kept things moving also.Marlene truly cares about people and clearly loves what she does. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home and would most definitely use her in the future for other transactions. Thank you Marlene to you and your staff for making this the best experience for my situation. Keep doing what you do girl!read more
