Richard Ruggaber - California Real Estate - (800) 591-5788

My Story

Originally from Toronto, Canada, I moved to Los Angeles in 1997 and have citizenship in both countries. I've been a Realtor in Los Angeles for over 11 years now, and I love what I do. In my previous careers, I was in the advertising business in New York, and also a casting director in Toronto. I have purchased three homes myself in the last 10 years. I have renovated all 3 homes and this is what started my expertise with home remodeling and renovation, which I have worked with so many times with clients. I am extremely detail oriented and observant when I walk into someones home. Many of my clients have become friends over the years and I really enjoy the connection and friendships I have developed with them.

I have worked with a full spectrum of clients from first time condo buyers to multi-million dollar estate buyers and sellers. A large percentage of my business comes from referrals, and it is due largely to my genuine concern for my client's best interests. I have, and will always be a service-oriented professional.

I truly enjoy helping someone purchase their first home. It's a step by step process to walk them through carefully. I have also worked with the most sophisticated buyers and sellers and for me I believe service service service is the name of the game.

“I've had the pleasure of knowing Richard for nearly 10 years but have used his services for seven. In a nutshell, Richard is the ultimate professional, He is kind, trustworthy, hard-working and always keeps his word. He is accessible and answers questions with candor. I've built a relationship with him where we just check in to say hi and get caught up. I know I can call Richard and ask his opinion on matters related to real estate, and he is always happy to hear from me and readily offers his opinion and advice. I highly recommend Richard to anyone who can benefit from his services. I know working him will yield fantastic results.

“I have used Richard several times on a variety of Real Estate transactions and I could not be more pleased with the results. Unlike many other agents who are only interested if you are ready to sign a deal this week, Richard is truly customer service oriented. He pays close attention to the details, listens carefully to my comments and does his best to meet my needs. Richard has real integrity and takes no shortcuts, he speaks up, tells me his concerns and then tries to find a better alternative. I wouldn't even consider another agent for any of my real estate needs.”
- Jim, Sherman Oaks, California

Richard Ruggaber is one of the best Realtors out there, without any exaggeration. He works tirelessly for you, and will advocate to save you money. He doesn’t try to get the most out of you that he can—he tries to get the most for you. He is terrific at negotiating for more favorable terms for you. He is a kind and caring Realtor, which is not the norm (from my personal experience). In tough economic times when so many Realtors have gone out of business, he is non-stop busy because so many of his referrals are word-or-mouth, from very happy clients. He doesn’t use pressure tactics, buts allows you to figure out if you love the house or not. He’ll educate and guide you, but will never give unsolicited advice, or try to steer you into buying a more expensive property. He is a stellar human being, as well as a magnificent Realtor!
