Ruth & David: A story of love & business.

Ruth and David dated for just 11 days before getting married; having a romantic love affair with each other for nearly 3 decades thereafter. Now that’s magic! Two brains were better than one and they quickly realized there was no problem they couldn't solve together in real estate. As business partners, the two could be seen jetting around the city in a smart car together - connecting with people, sharing laughs and lattes. Over the years they renovated and built, bought and sold homes with hundreds of clients, neighbors and friends; growing their network and passion as Realtors. They began to build a team of real estate superstars that would go on to become the top team in the city. David's passing in early 2017 came as a great shock and a harrowing loss for the community and the team. But the lessons he taught them about doing good work and living good lives are not soon forgotten. Ruthie and the team move forward today with more strength and passion than ever in David's stead. They clearly love each other and the work they're doing; and they are committed to doing his legacy proud.

David Jones David, Founder of The Ruth & David Group – was our brilliant and fearless leader until his abrupt passing in early 2017. To say he was a legend does little to describe him. David was a beloved Realtor in Vancouver for 3 decades, taking our team to #1 in the city for number of sales done in 2016. He left an incredible impact on his local community in Commercial Drive, but also his wide circle of clients, colleagues and friends who deeply connected with him. He lived and worked with unwavering integrity, powerful charisma, and an infamous sense of humor. He taught our team to never compromise on our values and forever strive for excellence in everything we do. Many people would tell you he was one of the best real estate agents in the city, and certainly he was the most popular. But more than that he was a generous and thoughtful coach to us and the people around him; always eager to offer some advice, a joke, a confidence boost or a helping hand. He can be best remembered for his infectious passion for the finer things in life, the intense adoration he showed for his wife and business partner Ruthie, and his proud moments as our team’s forefather. We move forward as a team today with more strength and passion than ever in his stead. We will continue to do his legacy proud. “CLEAR EYES, FULL HEARTS, CAN’T LOSE”

Well versed in all neighborhoods, zoning changes at the City and the direction the City seems to be heading, he can be a valuable resource. If he’s not working he’s at the dog park with his rescue Lab Blue, caring for his wife and new baby, or playing hockey in a local league. At Corey’s wedding, two words were repeated in speeches throughout the evening: loyal and trustworthy. To be described this way by your friends is great…but by your clients – it’s fantastic. Really a solid guy. Corey Martin: 778 836 8842 \| corey@ruthanddavid.com

Ayla White Ayla knows the importance of finding the perfect place to call home. Having lived in several communities from Toronto to Vancouver, she’s spent many hours packing and unpacking along the way and she is sensitive to the impact this has on people’s lives.

Having this background and over 15 years of sales experience, her passion for Real Estate did not come as a surprise over 8 years ago.
