I cannot say enough nice things about working with Ruthan O'Toole. Although the property we sold was modestly priced, she treated us like we were selling the most expensive home in the market. We were unfamiliar with the local HOA requirements, and Ruthan walked us through some complicated HOA issues. She priced the house higher than we expected, but by following her advise about how to market and stage the house, we had a contract in less than a week at list price. She went to bat with us when a last minute issue arose at closing. She also communicated with us at each stage of the sale process. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Ruthan, and ...

My experience with Ruthan O'Toole was wonderful. It took me almost a year to buy, but she was right there whenever I needed.

Ruthan O'Toole is one of the most experienced, efficient, compassionate, proficient, cooperative, dedicated professionals imaginable. Unexcelled! All was handled in the best, most professional manner possible. Persistent and proficient.

Knew that Ruthan O'Toole had an excellent reputation in the area. She worked hard to sell the property and was encouraging at all times (even though I got very discouraged.) I would definitely refer Ruthan to anyone needing to sell! Professional in every way! Went above and beyond several times to help! Felt that some of my nondescript questions were unnecessary but Ruthan answered all with aplomb!

Ruthan was very gracious and patient as well helpful and knowledgeable in the house search. Bill Schmarge was extremely helpful with the setting up of the house inspection, walk through and closing. We told Ruthan what we were looking for in a house. She came up with several options for us. We bought one of the houses she chose and are very happy with our purchase. We would recommend Ruthan O'Toole to anyone looking for a home in Lake of the Woods as she is very knowledgeable of the area and of real estate in general. Thanks Ruthan. Michael and Sharon Camp Springs, MD

We have been customers of Ruthanne O'Toole at Lake of the Woods, twice in the last 10 years. The first was to buy our present home at Lake of the Woods and the second -most recently,-the sale of Barbara's Mother's home, also at the Lake. In both cases, she did an excellent job and we would highly recommend Ruthanne to anyone who wants a seasoned,confident, knowledgeable,caring real estate agent. Both of us are sincerely appreciative of all the efforts Ruthanne took to sell our home. After the listing we had a ratified contract in a little over two weeks! Also everything up to and including the closing went very smoothly ,as she handles al...

Ruthan was Honest, Helpful and Dependable. She did a great job in selling our home after we moved 3 hours away to Pennsylvania. We were not available for the entire process.

Ruthan was very knowledgeable and professional. She patiently answered all of our many questions. She did not rush us into a decision but worked with us.

Ruthan Otoole was excellent. When I met with Ruthan I found her to be very honest and personable. She demonstrated a true understanding of my needs and requirements for selling the property.

Moving forward with buying a home was a little intimidating. I had not done this on my own before. Having Ruthan Otoole as my agent made all the difference in the process for me. Her shared knowledge throughout the buying process was essential to me pressing forward, despite setbacks. She continually encouraged me and was readily available to clarify and answer all my questions which helped me to become a more knowledgeable, confident buyer and end up with the home that was right for me and my family.

Ruthan was wonderful. We have already recommended her to others!

The house Ruthan O'Toole sold for our family had been previously listed with several other realtors who were unable to close a deal. She said she would have a deal for us within three months, and she did. With a month to spare. She was always right on top of every aspect of the sale, kept us on track, provided encouragement, and gave us excellent advice. Ruthan is a true professional. Our family could not be happier. I would recommend her without hesitation.

Ruthan is a knowledgeable, helpful and extremely enjoyable person to deal with.

Ruthan is a great person and her knowledge of the real estate market is incredible.

We never before dealt with an agent who went out of her way to move the process along as smoothly and efficiently as Ruthan O'Toole. She is absolutely outstanding in all respects. Bill Marsch her partner also did a fantastic job.

Ruthan knew my family and her knowledge of the area and housing market was a perfect fit for us. As busy as she is, she always gave us her time and never seemed to be in a rush. We called her often during the closing process and her knowledge was so valuable to us. We felt very blessed to have her as our broker.

Ruthan is a very experienced and knowledgeable realtor. She helped us both in the buying and selling field. We highly recommend her.

Excellent on all aspects, kept my best interest at the front line!

Known her for years. Only person we considered for the job.

Ruthan has an excellent knowledge of the area and market. She has a keen sense of what prospects are looking for and helps the seller make necessary changes to capture the sale. Good work Ruthan!

I read so many positive reviews of Ruthan from my neighbors that emphasized how much she truly cares about her clients. Ruthan's background and experience in real estate stand out. She is entirely accessible and someone I trust explicitly. She is truly a remarkable person and agent. Ruthan took the time to go over all aspects of the sale with me. She connected with all prospective buyers following a showing and we discussed whether any changes needed to be made to the sales campaign. As a result, we had many positive showings and eventually found the right buyer. My overall experience was terrific due to Ruthan's dedication to making the best ...

Great asset to your agency, thanks again. Barry

Ruthan kept me up to date every step of the way and was attentive to my needs and suggestions. Virginia Fast Fawn Lake

Our history with Ruthan O'Toole goes back 19 years when she helped us select a lot on which to build our house. Additionally, she recommended a builder to build our custom home and helped us throughout the process. She certainly went the extra mile with us. When it came time to sell that house, there was no doubt that Ruthan would be our realtor. Both times, Ruthan and her staff provided outstanding service from the first step to the last. Would also like to mention the excellent choice of the videographer who made the photos and videos of our home look even better than the actual house. A fantastic first impression for home buyers. Although w...

We have worked with Ruthan over the years and find her to be an excellent agent in regards to taking care of our needs. She always returns or texts or calls in a short amount of time and is very knowledgeable about the local real estate market.

Ruthan is fantastic and is the most professional realtor we have ever dealt with. Ruthan is very smart and delivers with excellence.

Ruthan quickly picked up on what I wanted, was quick to point out a house was not what I was looking for. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area and was really easy to work with.

She was wonderful to work with and went above and beyond to help us. I cannot express enough how much we appreciate her. Such a joy!!!

Ruthan O'Toole did a great job with the selling of my property. Land takes longer to sell and she was patient and continued to answer all my questions. Ruthan helped me by making suggestions and telling me why she suggested what she did. I would recommend her for any real estate transaction.

Ruthan has an amazing reputation and I trusted her to look out for my best interest. I know she is sincerely interested in what is best for her clients and nit looking just to make a sale. It came down to TRUST. Incredibly efficient. She handled everything. I expected this experience of selling to be stressful but Ruthan handled everything. She thought iof everything and kept me informed every step of the way. I would be more than willing to recommend her and your company. There is no comparison to other companies I have encountered in the past. The Best!

I have bought and sold 4 houses now with Ruthan's expertise. I will continue to use her and recommend her to anyone in need !

Ruthan did an amazing job selling our home. She listened to our concerns and went above and beyond to helps us. I would highly recommend her to my friends and family.

Ruthan is extremely professional and knowlegable about her job and interrelationships. She understands and engages a perfect balance between the multi level facets presented by her position. She diplomatically achieves the best results for everyone involved. She embraces the challenges of her job with honesty and integrity. Ruthan consistently applied kindness, patience and consideration to all involved. I highly recommend Ruthan as a Realtor.

Ruthan is an excellent real estate agent and we are fortunate to have her in the area

Very good sale agent, I will recommend her for any real estate sales

Ruthan exceded.our expectations. She was professional but also warm and was patient. I would recommend her to anyone buying and/or selling properties and is by far the best realtor we have ever used and we have used quite a few.

Ruthan is simply the best! She has served us over the last twenty when we bought and sold our first house at Lake of the Woods and then again in August. She has more experience and history with Lake of the Woods then anyone else. She genuinely cares about her clients and over the years we have grown to consider her a close friend through our purchases. She makes the process fun and she has always made us feel at ease during the searches. Never any sales pressure. She was very patient with us as it took a year or so to make our purchase. I have recommended her to close friends who are considering LOWs. Thank you Ruthan!!! We love you!...

I was a first time home buyer and Ruthan O'Toole kept me informed and gave me confidence through the entire process. I knew that I was in good hands and had complete trust in her. I knew next to nothing about buying a house, but Ruthan led me step by step. She was always accessible, reassuring, and had great advice. She gave me confidence and made the experience a pleasant one.

We felt confident from the very beginning with Ruthan and Bill Schmarge. Both were friendly and professional. Both gave advice in a kind way as to not hurt our feelings. We took the valuable advice and applied it to the house. I think it was one of the reasons why the house sold so fast. We could not have asked for a better transaction. It was beautifully advertised with the photographer's work. Exceptional job!! Also, Ruthan's suggestion of putting out the "Coming Soon" sign by the road stirred up a ton of interest. The first day it was on the market there were lots of people wanting to see the house. That's what you want as a seller. ...

Ruthan led me through an experience that I thought would be daunting at best. She explained each and every aspect of the process of buying a home. We even looked into building as well. In the end, she couldn't have been more helpful and compassionate to this first time home buyer!

Ruthan and Bill are a great team. They worked together to get our house sold at our asking price. They have the experience that you need and the abilities you want to get it done and done right. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to buy or sell you a house. Thank you for all that you do to make the experience a less than stressful.

I have bought and sold 9 houses over the course of many years. I have never had a better experience or a better agent than Ruthan from start to finish. She was responsive and handled many extra details in getting the house ready, fixing items, and emptying the house for turnover

Ruthan got me through a very emotional and difficult time and process. She worked extremely hard to prevent a foreclosure on my Mom's property. She's the greatest!

If you let Ruthan run with the ball, your team will score every time! She's a go getter and will work in your best interest throughout the whole sales process.

Ruthan O'Toole was very patient and understanding of my desires for my intended home. Awesome to work with, and knowledgeable of all aspects of the area!

Ruthan O'Toole is a true professional who was on top of things from the beginning and kept me informed through the entire process. Can't praise her enough. She is tops!!!! Choosing Ruthan O'Toole/CENTURY Redwood Realty - Locust Grove was certainly the right choice for me.

Ruthan O'Toole knows the area so well as she has lived here for many years. Ruthan is knowledgeable about real estate and in our experience, selling, that she will practically answer your questions before you ask her. Her upbeat, positive personality put our minds at ease when we had any concerns. I highly recommend Ruthan and the whole team at Century 21 Redwood Reality. Ruthan O'Toole made the whole process practically effortless, and my husband and I are so appreciative.

This was my mother's home, she worked with Ruthan as a realtor for many years and was hired by Ruthan's father John O'Toole to start her career in real estate. This was a difficult home to sell, old and poorly maintained. Ruthan's knowledge of this market was incredible. Selling the home and living in South Carolina was not a problem. The work Ruthan and Bill Schmarge did to get this property sold was superb. Ruthan's guidance throughout this process was priceless. From start to finish, through every challenge she kept me calm! Experience, expertise, great guidance in pricing, a truly great job from start to closing! I cannot be more ...

Ruthan, did a fantastic job in helping secure our purchase. Very knowledgeable and works quickly/efficiently to offer her clients the best customer service possible. Thanks again!

Ruthan O'Toole has a wonderful reputation. Ruthan O'Toole was readily available to us for questions; returned our calls quickly; helped us in so many ways.
