About Me
Welcome! I'm Mary Ruiz, a dedicated real estate professional with over 24 years of experience helping families find their perfect homes in the Santa Clarita Valley area. My passion for real estate stems from my genuine desire to help people achieve their homeownership dreams and make one of life's biggest decisions with confidence.
Throughout my career, I've successfully guided over 250 clients through the buying and selling process, earning a reputation for my attention to detail, market expertise, and unwavering commitment to client satisfaction. I believe that every client deserves personalized service and honest guidance, whether you're a first-time homebuyer or a seasoned investor.
When I'm not helping clients navigate the real estate market, you can find me volunteering at the Bella Vida Senior Center or exploring new restaurants with my family. I'm proud to call this community home and would love to help you find your place in it too.
As a Senior Real Estate Specialist (SRES®), I provide patient, tailored guidance for older adults and their families—whether downsizing, exploring aging‑in‑place options, or coordinating an estate sale. From preparing a longtime home for market to navigating timelines and logistics with care, my focus is on clear communication, trusted resources, and a supportive experience at every step.

What My Clients Say

Mary will forever be our go-to realtor
' Working with Mary was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. From the moment we met her, we felt a warm and welcoming connection that made the entire home-buying process feel less stressful and more exciting. She was not only professional and incredibly driven but also had a genuine way of making us feel like we were her top priority. Her dedication to representing us was evident in every step, and we knew we were in good hands. One of the most memorable aspects of our experience was how wonderful she was with our baby. Bringing our little one to showings could have been challenging, but Mary was so attentive and sweet, making it a comfortable experience for our whole family. Thanks to her hard work and determination, we are now about to settle into our dream home, where we look forward to making countless memories with our family which we Olán to expand. While we don't see ourselves moving anytime soon, we know exactly who to call if that day comes. Mary will forever be our go-to realtor, and we won't hesitate to recommend her to all our friends and family. She truly cares about her clients and goes above and beyond to ensure they find the perfect home. We couldn't be more grateful for her efforts!'

We had very focused and enjoyable experience with Mary Ruiz as our primary agent.
'Through Mary's expertise in marketing, we were able to sell my recently deceased sister's home within a week - above the listing price. Through Mary's experience and moving connections we were able to close within a very short escrow window. Because of Mary's availability and her willingness to help us deal with difficult communication situations brought about by lending institutions, we were able to save ourselves from needless anxiety and costs. Mary is, in every way, a consummate professional!'

Easy to reach with a question
'Assertive but not annoying. Can answer a wide range of home & escrow questions honestly. Seems to enjoy her job .'
~ Santa Clarita - Seller

She instantly clicked with us!
'Mary, we truly miss seeing your radiant smile & vibrant willingness to help us find our dream home. Thank you so much for helping our little growing family. She went the extra mile on multiple occurrences that truly kept us so happy with our choice to work with her. Funny story, this is my 2nd time working with Mary. I last worked with her as she helped my parents find there forever home in Santa Clarita over 20 years ago. We remembered her professionalism back then and were eager to work with her. She instantly clicked with us; we'd enter a home and she would immediately know if this was the one or not. She would send us personalized listings with small notes, offer her time to go view a home on her own if we saw it on an open house to help us make the best offer, and was so detailed with scheduling open houses. We knew it was an adventure every time we'd meet up to view homes and we believe it's because she is a local here herself which truly offers the best perspective of a realtor. If you're looking for someone with many years of experience, a bilingual realtor who truly loves what she does, look no more, Mary Ruiz is the one for you. We cannot wait to recommend you to our close family and friends Mary, we wish you much success and thank you again for helping us find the perfect home.'
~ Danaelle Arroyo
