Carlos has been our realtor through two property transactions, one a purchase and the other a sale. Both transactions were smooth and successful thanks to his hard work and efficient coordination. At all times it was a pleasure to work with him. He was very knowledgeable as to the market conditions and gave very sound advice which clearly was not self-serving. We always felt that he truly had our best interest in mind. He was consistently available to discuss any issues that arose and handled everything with patience and diligence. He clearly has significant experience and his background in architecture proved to be quite valuable when assessing property conditions. I hope Carlos will be available for any future property deals we pursue, as it would be a real drag to have to find another realtor who could live up to his performance. We whole-heartedly recommend him to anyone in need of a good realtor. Thanks again Carlos!
Sincerely-
Nick and Patricia Gilmore

I highly recommend Carlos Ruiz not only for his outstanding abilities as a Realtor but also for his business ethics his ability to anticipate client needs. Carlos brings with him years of experience resulting in the highest level of customer service, local knowledge, transactional expertise, responsiveness and keen negotiation skills. Moreover, he delivers differentiated value by anticipating client needs and addressing all issues and opportunities exquisitely. He is a delight to work with.

Dear Carlos,
We are most grateful for your guidance and work to purchase this office building. From the search to its purchase and delivery of the keys, your guidance and diligent work were superb. Not to mention your list of qualify contacts to help us with all the inspections in a timely manner (less than 30 days), which was a challange in itself. We cannot think of any one else that could have done a better job.
We will be most pleased to recommend you to anyone regarding purchasing or selling a property, specially a commercial property that requires additional knowledge. Being an arquitect, you provide additional skill and knowledge that an average Real Estate Agent without this education couldn't provide.
As a friend and as an agent we were always in the best hands. Thank you for all your great work and support.
Sincerely,

Hi Carlos,
You told me a few months ago that you will find me a home! I heard your words and thought how could this gentleman be so confident after all the rejections that I'd been through. But you kept moving along with such diligence and poise that eventually I started to believe. Today was one of the most exciting time of my life and I have you to thank for that Carlos. Thank you for your professionalism and persistence in helping me accomplish my goal of owning a home and thank you for always being there to answer my many questions and being so responsive and supportive. You have no idea how much these meant to me! You've been more than helpful, and I won't ever forget it. Best wishes to you in your future endeavors.
Sincerely,
Lorna.

Dear Tere and Van,
I just wanted to thank you for your help with connecting me to Carlos Ruiz. Carlos was huge help and made my move to Miami really easy -- from finding the apartment to handling the paperwork and documentation to actual moving and teaching me to find my way in the new neighborhood. I´ll be happy to recommend him and you can use my name as a reference in the future.
All my best,

I wanted to write to thank you for all your help in purchasing our home. Moving from Rhode Island was both a long distance move and lifestyle change for my family. We had many concerns about neighborhoods, schools, home values, real estate stability and finding the right house to accommodate our new life in a southern climate. I have been particularly appreciative of your listening to our concerns and the great efforts you made in making this as smooth a transition as it was. With your help we have found a home beyond our expectations and even more surprising, within our budget! We have owned several homes over the years and I can say without reservation that you are top of the list of any realtor I have dealt with. My family and I thank you for all you have done for us. Please feel free to use me as a reference at any time.

Earlier this year, my fiancée and I had the privilege of working with real estate agent Carlos Ruiz de Quevedo in the search for our first home. The home buying process can often be a stressful and confusing one, especially for inexperienced first-time home buyers. Carlos not only had endless patience in explaining each step to us, but was always available! night, day, or weekend - to answer questions. We were consistently impressed by his professionalism, knowledge, courtesy, and willingness to go that extra mile to ensure that we found exactly the home that we were looking for. I would highly recommend Carlos´s services to anyone who is also searching for that perfect home.
Sincerely,

Miami,
Beth and I wanted you to know how very much we all appreciate the way you handled the sale of mother´s house this past summer. You took us step by step in a way that I know another realtor would not have done - from praying with us over each detail to spending time with mother´s lawyer and financial planner to insure a smooth transition. You helped us understand each step in the process of listing and selling the house and assist us in all decisions - you soothed Mother´s concerns about selling her home of forty two years and answered our many questions in a manner that we could understand.
The sale of the house went quickly and I know that you, next to God, played the largest part in the smoothness of this transaction...
Thank you for everything you have done for our family above and beyond what was required of you.
Sincerely

We wanted to thank you for all your help in the process of buying or first home. Being new to home buying and the Miami area, we know your insight and experience in the local market was the difference between making a sound investment and making a large financial mistake.
When we chose you as our real estate agent, we knew that you would make the sometimes very stressful and frustrating process of buying a home more enjoyable. You were very patient with our many, many questions and concerns. Although we know that you had many other clients, you always made us feel like we were your top priority.
Our new home is the perfect match for our lifestyle and personalities. We are enjoying it so much.
Best wishes,

Angela and I want to thank you for all you hard work and help, in trying to find us a winter home in Homestead. We believe you went above and beyond what a typical Agent would normally do.

Dear Mayra,
I can't thank you enough for the contact information you offered me regarding the Realtor. I have been dealing with Carlos Ruiz since November 2005. He is absolutely a wonderful individual. Mr. Ruiz has gone out of his way to help us find a suitable place for the visiting professor arriving in January. During this entire ordeal, Mr. Ruiz has been patient, very professional, honest, amicable and understanding. I will forever be grateful to Mr. Ruiz and cannot thank him enough for all he has done for us.

As many people who have been thru the process may know, shopping for and purchasing a home can be one of the most mentally and emotionally exhausting endeavors one can ever undertake. My wife and I were fortunate enough to come across Carlos Ruiz. As it turns out the whole process was a truly serendipitous event. My wife happened to spot Carlos´ open house sign and pointed it out to me. As it turned out I have been a recipient of Carlos´ indispensable and infinitely informative monthly trade newsletter for the better part of 2 years now. The best part of Carlos´ newsletter is that it shows the truth about market trends based on actual data. None of the self serving hype of realtors that continued to put a spin on things and refuse to admit that the market was rapidly changing. It was his free distribution of valuable and honest information that always out stuck in my mind and caught my attention. It was this name recognition that brought us to view our new home, totally by chance.
From there on out the process was as smooth as silk. Easy negotiation, kid gloves attention to details and follow thru on every detail assist both his client the seller and now us the buyers. The realty community could learn a great deal from a person like Carlos. Honesty, integrity and excellence in service have no substitute.
Lastly I firmly believe that his years of experience as an Architect added an additional depth to his knowledge and attitude. An edge that no other realtor we have ever dealt with ever had, nor would I guess could ever acquire.
Thanks again Carlos, we could not have done with without you!

I want to let you know how pleased I am that you were the realtor I chose to sell my house. The current market was not the best time to be selling but with all of your help it only took a couple of months. The problems were many and you stood by your promise to help in any way to make this a successful transaction. I can not thank you enough for all of you help.

Dear Mr. Ruiz,
I wish to thank you for the phenomenal service you rendered in the successful sale of my home at 8905 SW 115 Terrace, Miami, Florida, a success in the face of a crashed real estate market.
First problem area involved some open permits, unknown to me, dating back for years. I was at a complete loss as to the procedures to follow with the Miami Dade County Building Department. You personally led me through the process which was a great relief.
You also personally educated me on the analysis of the market in my neighborhood, a totally new learning process for me.
Lastly, you persevered with open houses, follow ups with those who showed potential interest in the property and maintained a continuous interaction with me through the process which took several months as the seller's market kept changing for the worse, even for desirable locations as was mine.
A remarkable outcome was the coordination that took place with the completion of my newly constructed home in Tallahassee. The sale of my house and the transition to my new home fit perfectly.
For all this, plus more, I am eternally grateful. The amount of effort and time you devoted to my assistance was outstanding and exeeded my expectations.
Most sincerely,
Joseph H. Davis

Dear Mayra,
I´m writing to send a belated "thank you" for recommending that I contact Carlos Ruiz (EWM Realty) during my family´s recent housing search. We have since found and purchased a home (earlier this summer) and Carlos´ expertise was invaluable in all stages of the process.
Carlos worked with us as our realtor and we could not have been more pleased. Carlos (and his assistant, Alex) was on all occasions thorough, patient, and proved to be well-informed of the South Miami housing market, He was also personable and attentive to my and my wife´s questions, concerns and requests. Again, we could not have hoped for a better experience.
Thanks again for putting us in touch with Carlos and I hope your summer is going well.
Best regards,
