I did not grow up dreaming of becoming a REALTOR®

Real estate was not even on my radar. At the time, I was working in the restaurant industry when someone changed the direction of my life with one conversation. A real estate broker had watched the way I interacted with people - how I remembered names, families, favorite drinks, and the small details that made someone feel welcomed and seen. He told me something I have never forgotten:

I can teach real estate. What I cannot teach is that quality.

He believed the way I cared for people would make me a great REALTOR®. So that same day, I enrolled in real estate classes, even though I knew very little about the industry. I did not know then that it would become one of the most meaningful decisions of my life.

Over the years, I have realized he was not really talking about houses. He was talking about people.

Living room with a dark sectional, white textured pillows, and a light wood coffee table.

Today, that is still what I believe this business is about. Homes matter. Marketing matters. Negotiation matters. Preparation matters. But none of those come before the person trusting me with the decision.

Every client deserves someone who will educate them, prepare them, advocate for them, and always put their best interests first. I am not here to pressure anyone into a decision. I am here to help people understand their options and make the decision that is right for their life.

A client once told me they believed God guided me toward this path to help people. I have never forgotten that either. My faith reminds me that real estate is not a career; it is one of the ways I can serve people during moments that matter deeply.

Amy Ruminski shaking hands with clients after closing on a home

Whether someone is buying a first home, selling the place they have loved for years, helping a parent move, navigating an estate, or searching for the next chapter, I consider it a privilege to walk beside them.

Because to me, real estate has never just been about houses. It is about people - and helping them find a place that truly feels like home.

Testimonials

I am a first-time homeowner, and Amy did a phenomenal job of explaining everything there is to know about the whole process of buying a house: from knowing what to look for during showings all the way through closing. Amy has an excellent personality and is one of the most reliable real estate professionals I know. Thank you for holding my hand through the process, Amy!

Jennifer R.

Amy went above and beyond to help us find our dream home as first-time home buyers. Her thoroughness, honesty, and kindness made the home search and buying process go by more easily than we could’ve imagined. She offered great expertise and demonstrated a willingness to get to know us not just as home buyers but as actual people, which made our experience working with her so enjoyable and worthwhile!

Sydney A.

Selling my first home was a breeze knowing Amy was by my side and had my back every step of the way. Absolutely couldn't have done it, and that quickly, without her expertise and professionalism. Thank you!

Jaime L.

Anthony and Amy were such great partners during the home-buying process! They are experts in their field and, more importantly, were so kind to me and my family the whole way through. I always felt supported by them even after our sale went through. I highly recommend Baird and Warner to everyone!

Rachel S.

We would not use any other realtor than Amy. She was able to coach us through the sale of our home and has helped us manage to find our next home in this crazy market. When everything gets so stressful, she is a pillar to lean on to make all the right decisions for your family.
