I’m Rodrigo Ruda, a Realtor with Keller Williams in Cupertino, California. Whether you’re buying or selling,  I’m here to guide you every step of the way and make the process clear, smooth, and strategic. Before real estate, I spent 25 years in carpentry. As a proud Nor Cal UBC member, I’ve contributed to numerous large-scale construction projects, including working as a foreman on the Apple Park “spaceship” project here in Silicon Valley. I’ve also worked as a subcontractor on major projects with builders like Toll Brothers, KB Home, Ponderosa Homes, and Pulte Homes, and helped run my family’s home remodeling business. I grew up in the Bay Area and have lived in multiple cities, including San Francisco, Union City / Fremont, and San Jose, giving me deep local knowledge and insight into the communities I serve. That hands-on construction background gives my clients a real advantage. I know how to evaluate a property beyond the surface, identify smart, cost-effective upgrades, and break down the true pros and cons of a home. Bilingual in English and Spanish, I work with clients from all backgrounds and walks of life. I focus on personalized service, strong negotiation, and powerful marketing to deliver a confident and rewarding real estate experience.  Let’s connect and build a strategy that puts you in the strongest possible position.
