About Ruth Balladares

Personal

Welcome to my page! I grew up in Madrid, Spain, where my parents have always owned and operated their own businesses. From them I experienced first-hand how a strong work ethic and attention to detail is critical to building a successful business. Those experiences early on instilled in me a CAN DO, entrepreneurial spirit that has guided me through the years and remains an important part of who I am today. After finishing college on the East Coast, I wanted to experience the fast-paced craziness of living and working in NYC so I took a job in Manhattan in the commodity trading industry. This career move challenged me in many exciting ways, but also reinforced in me the critical importance of delivering exceptional results consistently. When you are managing multi-million dollar transactions on a daily basis, you learn quickly the importance of attending to every single detail! After years in the corporate world developing expertise in everything from commodity trading and finance, to operations, risk management and contract negotiation, it was time to move on to the next chapter in my professional life, to something that satisfied that entrepreneurial, CAN DO streak in me, Real Estate. Finding houses that become homes, matching buyers and sellers, building valued and lasting relationships. I've been loving it ever since! For 20 years and counting I've called Stamford home. From the hustle and bustle of downtown condo living in years past to the quiet, tree-filled acres of North Stamford today with my husband and three boys, The City that Works, and surrounding Fairfield County provide fantastic places to live, work and play. I look forward to sharing my discoveries and experiences with you.
