Welcome to my Ruhl&Ruhl website — I’m glad you’re here.

Whether you’re buying, selling, or simply exploring your options, my goal is to make the process clear, strategic, and successful — because you should never feel like you’re navigating real estate alone.

About Me

I bring both deep real estate roots and high-level marketing expertise to every client relationship.

As a New England native raised in a real estate family, I learned early what professionalism and client service truly mean. My mother founded the first women-owned real estate firm in Massachusetts, and my brother later served as President of the Rhode Island Realtors Board — so real estate is in my DNA.

Before transitioning fully into real estate, I built a consulting firm in 2003 after leading marketing strategy for three nationally recognized gardening brands. That background allows me to strategically price & position homes, market properties effectively, and negotiate with a clear plan.

I earned my BS/BA from Boston University and moved to the Midwest in 2012, drawn by the genuine warmth and sense of community. Since then, I’ve remained active in local leadership, serving with the Chamber of Commerce, Rotary Club, and United Way. When I’m not working with clients, you’ll likely find me in the garden, visiting MLB stadiums (28 of 30 and counting), or staying active outdoors. My wife, Carrie, and I live in Davenport in a beautiful century-old home, appreciating all the Quad Cities has to offer.

What My Clients Say About MeTestimonials

Galen & Joyce Hiveley

Guy & Linda P - Davenport

My wife and I feel Ken is one of your best realtors, he communicated with us on every part of sales/buying. He is a great asset to your business and we will recommend him to any of our family or friends if they are buying or selling.

Lara Kimmer

Ken was wonderful to work with. He made me feel like I was his only client. He was knowledgeable and went above and beyond. He quickly learned my must haves and made sure he was showing me properties that would meet many items on my checklist. When I made the offer on the home I purchased, he worked into the evening to help facilitate the transaction. From the time the offer was accepted, Ken made sure everything stayed on track to ensure my closing would go as planned. I would highly recommend his services to friends and family. If I am ever in the buying or selling market again, Ken will receive my business. Thank you Ken!

Logan T. - Davenport

Ken was more than helpful in every way. As a first time home buyer I knew absolutely nothing about the process but he was patient and explained everything to me perfectly. I trusted him through the whole process as his knowledge and expertise was very apparent. I would definitely recommend to a friend/family, and I have.

Karl M - Davenport, IA

Ken was perfect. He answered all of my questions without judgement. He was very knowledgeable about the whole process. I will be recommending him to everyone I know! I trusted him fully by the time we closed on our house. Thank you again for making everything as smooth and easy as possible!
