TESTIMONIALS

What my clients have to say about me:

Ruth Pettler is completely dedicated to her seller and making sure the transaction closes successfully and as timely as possible. She's easy to work with and really works hard for all involved on both sides. Her assessment of the market value and what steps would be needed to prepare our home for sale were very practical and proved to be perfect for an efficient sales experience. Ruth was very knowledgeable of the local market conditions, which added value to our transaction. I appreciated her proactive management and diligence during the close process, after we entered into contract, which ensured that the transaction was completed by the expected close date. Thanks so much Ruth! We would be happy to use Ruth Pettler again.

We had a great experience working with Ruth Pettler during our move from Berkeley, CA to the Lamorinda area (Orinda, Moraga, Lafayette). She helped us understand not just home values and the physical landscape, but also the cultural spaces, which was very different from where we were moving from. Also, she helped us with a winning offer on a house in a very competitive environment. We recommend her highly!
Michael

Ruth was very helpful in guiding us through the home-buying process. We had already found a house we wanted to purchase and she ensured that the inspections, negotiations, and escrow processes went smoothly. She was easy to get hold of via text, email, or phone whenever we had questions (which was quite often!). She was also a kind, competent, efficient, and reassuring presence throughout a stressful process. We highly recommend Ruth if you are looking to buy a home in the Walnut Creek area, she will have your best interests at heart.
Julie and James

This is the third time we worked with Ruth and it was a pleasure. We also worked with Ruth buying a house and selling another condo. Ruth is very professional, knowledgeable and honest agent. In sel ling our condo, we got $30K over the asking price! We would definitely recommend Ruth.

Working with a real estate professional is a matter of trust, and our experience with Ruth Pettler at Better Homes and Gardens was extraordinary. Ruth worked with me and my wife to help us understand both the geography and the cultural landscape of a new city, as we contemplated a move from Berkeley to Lamorinda. We ended up in Orinda in a fantastic neighborhood and couldn't be happier. Her knowledge and savvy with property values, bidding and negotiating on price, and inspecting the property were all excellent. We couldn't have asked for a better partner in this complex and emotional process. We highly recommend her.
Estee and Michael

Ruth is absolutely one of the hardworking, and determined realtor in the Bay Area. She is an expert in the growing housing market. She is full of knowledge, experience, credentials, research, and at the same time is personable and very easy to get along with. She is responsive to all your questions and answers emails and phone questions within minutes. She will be by your side throughout the entire confusing process to make sure you understand everything. She will negotiate for you, set up inspection appointments, and provide referrals to the best, most reliable and reasonable services to ensure your prospective property is safe and secure enough for move in. As you can see we highly recommend contacting Ruth to assist you in purchasing or selling your home.
