In all major categories in the Quad Cities, Ruhl & Ruhl Realtors served more clients than any other company in 2012.  Ruhl agents accounted for 39% of the closed market share of residential and condo sales in the Quad Cities Area (IAQC/ILQC).  That is bolstered by our New Construction Market Share that accounts for nearly half of all dollars spent (49%).

Our land sales account for a whopping 53% of the market.  Finally, we are proud that we are also #1 in Residential Income this year accounting for 29% of the market, up from 2008, when we were #3 and had 14.7% market share. Thank you Quad Cities for allowing us to serve you. We look forward to another very exciting year at Ruhl & Ruhl Realtors.

CEDAR RAPIDS – Even with Jack Frost nipping at our nose – the Cedar Rapids real estate market is still warming up. Homes pending in November, meaning those real estate transactions that have a contract signed but have not closed, are up 3% this month compared to November 2011. Pending sales are a good predictor of the market one or two months from now, as a percentage of those sales end in closed transactions. "This increase in pendings shows us that the uptick we saw in 2012 is going to continue into the New Year," said Caroline Ruhl, President of Ruhl&Ruhl REALTORS. "We were fortunate to not have the huge downturn in the Cedar Rapids real estate market suffered by others and we are lucky that we are already back on track from the dip we had." Here's what else is happening i...
