The Many Hats We Wear as a Central Ohio Real Estate Team

At Vutech | Ruff, we believe the experience of buying or selling a home should feel personal, not transactional. It should feel thoughtful, not rushed. Most of all, it should feel inspired.

Marilyn Vutech and Jeff Ruff have built what is one of the most trusted real estate teams in Central Ohio, in large part because both believed in a different way of doing business. One that prioritized people over process, relationships over volume, and community over competition. 

That same mindset guides our team today. Every phone call, showing, listing, and late-night contract review is approached with care and intention. We don’t try to be all things to all people. We focus on being the right team for those who want a truly personal experience.

While we don’t try to be all things to all people, we certainly wear a lot of hats to ensure our clients get the best experience possible.  

Market Analyst 

We stay on top of pricing trends, neighborhood shifts, and data that helps you make smart decisions. With decades of combined experience and in-depth knowledge of Central Ohio real estate, we offer real insight, not guesswork. 

Matchmaker 

Finding the right home or investment property isn’t about luck. It’s about listening closely and knowing how to connect people with places that reflect their goals and their lifestyle. 

Negotiator 

We advocate fiercely, clearly, and professionally. From the first offer to the final walkthrough, we handle the moving parts so you can move forward with confidence. 

Connector 

Over the years, we’ve built a reliable network of inspectors, stagers, lenders, contractors, and specialists we trust. When we refer someone, it’s because we have worked with them before, and we’d hire them ourselves. 

Teammate 

This process takes teamwork, and we show up every day to make sure you’re supported. We collaborate as a group, share knowledge, and lean on each other to get things right. 

Lifelong Resource 

The end of a transaction is not the end of the relationship. Many of our clients come back to us for years—sometimes decades—after they’ve bought or sold. Whether they’re ready to make another move, thinking about a renovation, or just need advice, we’re always here. 

This is more than a job. It’s a long-term commitment to the people and neighborhoods we care about. We’re proud to own and work from our office in German Village, where our doors are open seven days a week. We believe in being available, in collaborating face-to-face, and in building something lasting—just like Marilyn and Jeff set out to do from the beginning. 

Real estate can be fast-paced and impersonal. But it doesn’t have to be. At Vutech | Ruff, we slow it down just enough to make sure every decision, every detail, and every moment reflects your needs and tells your story. 

We’ve never been interested in following a corporate model. We’re here to do something better. Something more connected. Something inspired. 

Should You Buy a Home in Central Ohio Now or Wait?  

With 30-year mortgage rates hovering around 6.65%, many potential homebuyers are wondering whether now is the right time to buy or if they should wait for rates to drop. 

While it’s natural to hope for lower rates, waiting could cost you more in the long run. Home prices in Central Ohio continue to rise, and experts predict that demand will remain strong. If you delay, you may face higher home prices and increased competition, making it even tougher to find the right home at the right price. 

Let’s take a closer look at why buying now may be the better financial move.

The Reality of Mortgage Rates & Home Prices

It’s understandable that homebuyers want to secure the lowest possible mortgage rate, but trying to time the market can backfire. While some forecasts suggest that rates may gradually decline to 6.4% in 2026, that small difference is unlikely to outweigh the rising home prices and increased competition expected in Central Ohio’s housing market.

Central Ohio Housing Market Trends 

Columbus and the surrounding areas remain one of the hottest real estate markets in the U.S., and the data supports it: 

More Homes on the Market – Inventory has increased by 21% compared to last year, giving buyers more choices right now. 

Home Prices Keep Climbing – The median home price in Columbus reached $315,665 as of December 2024, a 3.3% increase from last year—and prices are expected to keep rising. 

High Demand & Market Competitiveness – Columbus is ranked No. 12 among the most competitive housing markets in the country. Homes are selling fast, and values are likely to continue appreciating.

Why Buying Now Makes Financial Sense  

If you’re holding off on buying in hopes of lower mortgage rates, consider this: 

Home Prices Are Rising Faster Than Rates Are Dropping 

While some forecasts suggest mortgage rates may decline slightly to 6.4% in 2026, the difference is minimal compared to the expected rise in home prices. 

For example, a $500,000 home in 2025 could be worth $525,000 in 2026, meaning you’d pay $25,000 more for the same property if you wait. Even if rates improve slightly, your overall loan amount will be higher, leading to a potentially larger monthly payment. 

More Inventory, Less Competition … For Now 

Right now, buyers have more choices and slightly less competition. But as inventory tightens again, bidding wars could return, making it harder to secure your ideal home. 

You Can Always Refinance Later 

One of the biggest misconceptions about mortgage rates is that you’re stuck with them forever. If rates drop in the future, you can refinance—but you can’t go back in time to buy at today’s lower prices.

Now is the Time to Buy 

The Columbus real estate market remains strong, and while mortgage rates are a factor to consider, home prices and market conditions matter even more. Instead of waiting and risking a higher purchase price and more competition, buying now allows you to lock in a home at today’s value, start building equity, and refinance later if rates improve. 

At Vutech | Ruff, we believe that every home purchase should be an inspired move—one that aligns with your goals, lifestyle, and future aspirations. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, upgrading, or investing, our team is here to guide you with expertise and confidence.

The Homeowner’s Easy Guide to Planting

One of the greatest joys of homeownership is making your space truly your own, both inside and out. Your outdoor spaces should be an extension of your home, offering a place to relax, entertain, and even get your hands a little dirty. But if you’re not a seasoned gardener, knowing where to start can feel overwhelming. While hiring a landscaping company is always an option, tackling the project yourself can be a rewarding way to unwind, soak up some Vitamin D, and even get a bit of exercise. 

To set yourself up for success – and ensure your hard work pays off – we’ve outlined some of our top tips to help you navigate the planting process:  

1) Don’t Plant Too Late (Or Too Early)  

    Planting before the last frost of the season can wreak havoc on your garden, which is why we suggest researching the average last frost date in your area. Columbus, for example, typically sees its last frost around April 27th.  

    2) Know Where (and When) Sun Hits Your Yard  

    Before you choose your plants, it’s important to know the amount of sunlight different areas of your yard receive. Plants are categorized by their sunlight needs – full sun, partial sun, dappled sun, or full shade – and selecting the right ones based on your yard’s sun exposure ensures they thrive. Here’s a quick breakdown:  

    Full sun – Full sun plants need 6+ hours of direct sunlight a day

    Partial sun – 4-6 hours of direct sunlight a day

    Dappled sun (or partial shade) – 2-4 hours of direct sunlight a day

    Full shade – 0-2 hours of direct sunlight a day 

    3) Pick Your Plants 

    When picking your plants, ask yourself whether you want to replant every year. If the answer is no, you’ll want to opt for perennials where possible. The tops of perennial plants die back during winter but bloom again in the spring, minimizing the amount of maintenance and replanting required.  

    Annuals, on the other hand, live for only one growing season, meaning they’ll need to be replanted in the spring. Annuals are also ideal if you want to switch up the colors and varieties of plants in your garden. 

    4) Don’t Skimp on Soil 

    Adding soil – and good soil at that – is a step not to be skipped during the planting process. Once you’ve loosened the soil enough, we suggest sprinkling a handful of nutrient-rich potting soil into the ground before you place your plant.  

    5) Space Your Plants Out  
    It can be easy to forget that plants grow both upward and outward, requiring space for healthy development. A common beginner’s mistake is crowding plants too close together, leading them to compete for water and sunlight, which can stunt their growth and cause disease. To prevent this, refer to the spacing recommendations on plant tags at local garden centers, ensuring each plant has enough room to thrive.  

    6) Water, Water, Water  

    While it’s not always necessary to water every day, aim for 2-3 soaks a week to guarantee your garden gets enough to stay healthy. It’s also important to watch out for precipitation in the forecast, as this affects how often you need to water. If your area is going through a dry spell and it’s especially hot out (think late July through early August in Ohio), you may want to water every day. Some indicators that your plants aren’t being watered enough include:

    Dry soil – If the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry, your plants need a healthy drink.

    Wilting leaves

    Yellowing leaves

    Leaves with browning or crispy edges

    Planting Classes in Columbus 

    If you’re still not confident going into this gardening season, you can always take a planting class or two to sharpen your knowledge.  

    Franklin Park Conservatory – The conservatory hosts a wide variety of classes, including several upcoming sessions that focus on gardening. Whether you want to learn more about certain types of plants, how to support your plants’ growth, or even tips on water conservation – they’ve got it. 

    Columbus Garden School – If you’re interested in more hands-on class experience, the Columbus Garden School might be more up your alley. They offer everything from one-hour workshops to multi-month skill-building courses so you can gain the knowledge and tools you need to perfect your green thumb! 

    Columbus Foodscapes – If you’re more interested in turning your backyard into an edible landscape, Columbus Foodscapes offers several classes – both online and in-person – on how to start, grow and maintain a beautiful vegetable garden.  

    Creating the perfect outdoor space is just one of the many joys of homeownership. Whether you’re planting your first flower bed or transforming your backyard into a lush retreat, taking the time to cultivate your space makes a house truly feel like home.

    At Vutech | Ruff, Cutler Real Estate, we believe that finding the right home is about more than just four walls—it’s about discovering a place where you can grow, dream, and create lasting memories. With nearly 40 years of experience helping buyers and sellers in Columbus, our dedicated team is here to guide you every step of the way.

    Solar Eclipse Viewing Guide in Columbus 

    On April 8, 2024, Columbus will be in the direct path of a total solar eclipse for the first time since 1806. In case you didn’t know, a total solar eclipse occurs when the sun, moon, and Earth all align. Spanning 300 miles, the eclipse’s path will begin around 1:55 PM and reach total peak totality at about 3:12 PM, for a total duration of 2 hours and 31 minutes. 

    You can expect a noticeable temperature change, grayish skies, abnormal behavior from plants and animals, and then at peak totality, a dark shadow will appear just before the solar corona appears and totality hits. 

    Please Note: it is not safe to look directly at the Sun without the protection of specialized eye protection. Do not look at the Sun through a camera, binoculars, or telescope without a solar filter secured over the optics.
