Sarah Ruhland - The Reliable Realtor Licensed in MN and WI - Real Broker
2020-2024 Super Real Estate Agent
Director of Team Operations

Sarah pulls double duty as a Realtor and also the Director of Operations for The Property Geeks Team. In addition to helping clients buy and sell what is most likely their biggest investment, Sarah is the super glue holding the many divisions of The Property Geeks together. When she’s not at listing appointments or out showing homes, she’s managing calendars, budgets, and office accounts. In every

interaction, her positive, bubbly attitude and amazing organizational skills keep everyone in smiles and on task.

“I find joy in helping clients remain calm during the selling process, or assisting buyers in locating the perfect home to fit their family and lifestyle. Our team can also count on me to do my best to help everyone succeed and shine.”

She geeks out about food, and loves trying new recipes or tweaking ones she already has. Some of her favorite moments are when people gather around a table with great conversation and fun while enjoying a meal she’s made. Sarah and her high-school-sweetheart husband, Todd, live in Lakeville with their three busy children, a rescue pup and feisty cat. When she’s not wearing her realtor hat, you can find her volunteering at her kids’ activities and cheering them on, reading a good book, or planning the next place to travel to.

I’ve known this buyer since he was about 5 years old — back when “big decisions” meant picking a snack or a bike helmet. Watching him grow up, work hard, and now purchase his first home is one of those moments that reminds me why I love what I do.

As an empty-nester mom, helping our “babies” reach milestones like this is emotional in the best way. I’m beyond honored that he trusted me with such a big step, and I am so dang excited for him!!

Congratulations on your first home Brody!! 🏡💙

Some closings stick with you a little extra—and this was one of them. 🏡✨

A few years ago, I helped this amazing family relocate out of state. Life brought them back to Wisconsin, and I was lucky enough to be part of their journey, again.

We spent months searching for that perfect blend of “homey” and “nature,” juggling travel, virtual showings, and days packed with tours. It wasn’t always easy—especially being split between two places—but they trusted the process and kept going.

And recently… we made it official. SOLD.
Acres of peaceful land, a home that feels like them, and a fresh start exactly where they’re meant to be.

So grateful for clients who become friends, and for stories that come full circle. ❤

Thinking mortgage rates should be lower by now? 🏡💸

Even with Fed cuts and cooling inflation, rates are still stubbornly above 6%. Why? Lenders base rates on long-term market factors like the 10-year Treasury yield, plus economic uncertainty and ongoing inflation pressures.

Just Sold! 🎉

The right home is worth the wait. 🏡 This wonderful family took their time to find the perfect home — one that fit their lifestyle, goals, and dreams for the years ahead. While searching for “the one,” they were rockstars at prepping their current home for sale, which in turn sold in only TWO days on the market!

It’s a great reminder that timing in real estate isn’t just about the market — it’s about finding the right fit for you. So happy for this family and the exciting new chapter ahead! Congrats Scott and Kristy!! 💛

Just sold! 🎉

Downsizing isn’t something most people rush into — it’s a big emotional and practical decision. My clients took their time to find the perfect home to fit their next chapter, and it was worth every moment.

If you’re dreaming of a simpler lifestyle, less maintenance, or something that feels “just right” for the years ahead — I’d love to help guide you through that process. There’s no deadline when it comes to finding the home that feels like forever. 🏡

Congrats Bernie and Joe!!!

Choosing the agent that only tells you what you want to hear will cost you in the long run. Literally. 💰

👉🏻 All agents know the tale of the overpriced home. It goes through multiple price reductions and eventually sells for less than if it had been priced right from the start, with 10x the hassle and your valuable time wasted.

Talking price is TOUGH- how can you put a number on priceless memories? It can feel personal, but pricing is based on data and facts alone. Even with the possibility of not being hired, I am committed to having those hard conversations because overpricing NEVER works. 🙅🏻‍♀️

Inventory is up, buyer urgency is down. 📊

Here's what this really means 👇🏻
Buyers are taking their time and negotiating (as they should!). Homes are still selling, but strategy has become especially important. Things I make sure to include in my home selling strategies are:
☑ Pricing rooted in reality- based on current market data & comps.
☑ Marketing that meets buyers where they are already looking.
☑ Prepping & staging the home to attract move-in ready buyers.

Navigating this market can be a tricky at any stage, making it key to have an agent by your side that's ready to tackle challenges head on (and with a few tricks up her sleeve 😉). Reach out, I would love to answer any questions you have!
