Marie Schulte, Realtor

After more than 15 years in real estate, I still get excited every time I list a home or help a buyer get an offer accepted! I began my career with Ruhl&Ruhl Realtors in 2009, and while I've learned that no two transactions are ever alike, one thing hasn't changed. I love helping people find the place they'll call home.

I work with buyers and sellers throughout the Cedar Rapids area, but I have a special place in my heart for first-time homebuyers and empty nesters. I have a bit of a motherly side, and as an empty nester myself, I understand just how exciting (and sometimes emotional!) these transitions can be. My approach is pretty simple: listen, be honest, communicate often, and work through challenges together. I've been fortunate to earn recognition in Ruhl&Ruhl's Double Diamond Club, and I also enjoy mentoring fellow agents. But at the end of the day, my greatest reward is knowing my clients are happy and confident in their decisions.

My husband and I have called Fairfax home for nearly 30 years, and family is everything to me. Our adult children live in Oregon and Texas, so we cherish every opportunity to visit them. My faith and community are also a big part of who I am. I love being involved with A Place 4 Friends where I facilitate a weekly Bible study, the Fairfax Iowa Library Foundation, and Cedar Hills Community Church.

When I'm not helping clients or spending time with family, you'll probably find me reading a good book, enjoying a Hallmark movie, planning a trip to somewhere with sandy beaches, or checking out a local restaurant. I'm also always up for a little wine tasting or a good craft beer flight!

I believe home is where you can truly be yourself, and finding that place should be a positive experience. So, whether you're buying your first home, downsizing, or ready for something new, I'd love to help you make your next move. And if we happen to share a love of Hallmark movies or a good glass of wine, even better!

Great service!

Marie Schulte was great... Loved worked with her and will certainly refer her to friends and family, as well as use her as our agent in our next sale/purchase.

Diane B Jennings

I currently live in Florida and decided early in the year that I wanted to move back to the Cedar Rapids area to be close to my family and long-time friends after my husband passed. Marie and her transaction coordinator, Brooke Harrigan, were fantastic to work with. I am a person who asks a lot of questions and they were always quick to get answers back to me. I also had a number of "must-have" requirements that Marie really worked hard on to find me condos that met them. From the time I contracted with Marie up to the close day, I took only one trip up to Cedar Rapids. I flew up on a Mon and the next day I walked through the condo to look at some things more closely that I had viewed via Facetime, made an offer within a couple hours of the walkthrough, had a counter offer and then I counteroffered and then the sellers accepted by early evening! I was on a flight back home on Wed. Marie made it easy for me to get everything done even though I am in Florida. That meant the world to me with so many things to deal with related to my husband's passing and getting ready to move. I would highly recommend Marie. She's timely with everything, she listens to you, she responds quickly, she really knows the RE market, and she's genuinely nice! I've been through a number of RE transactions over the years as a buyer and as a seller, and almost all of them had some bumps in the road that made things difficult. This transaction was a nice experience from beginning to the close. Many, many thanks to Marie and Brooke!

Marie was absolutely amazing to work with!

Richard & Ann Schulte

We will use Marie again!

James Allen

Marie said she would work hard to sell our house, and she did. She knew what it would take to sell our house, and she kept us informed along the way. When things were not going well we could tell that she honestly felt badly for us, and worked even harder to get the house sold. Marie is honest in her dealings and upfront about answering questions.

Jason Ernst

Marie was responsive and really knew what we were looking for, even more than we did. She knows people and Real Estate. Highly recommended.

David Minehart

Marie’s expertise is matched only by her compassion. She is easily one of the most ethical people I have ever done business with. Those associated with Marie in their real estate transactions should consider themselves exceedingly fortunate.

Diane Voss

Marie was exceptional both when I bought in Cedar Rapids and again when selling. Not to mention she offered advice and friendship while I lived there. She was integral in helping me find financing when I had exhausted my ideas. Couldn't have asked for a better agent!

Jan and Sandy Shultz

Five stars for Marie! Always available and very knowledgeable.

Diane Voss

Marie is an absolutely wonderful realtor to work with!! She helped me find my home in Cedar Rapids and then sell it again when that time came. Without her I would not have found financing for my bridge loan and would have missed the unit I was buying. She responds quickly and is a calm voice of reason during stressful times. When I first moved to the area and had a water issue in my house and didn’t know anyone, she jumped right in her car, came over and helped me make a plan. She is the best!!!

Madison Frericks

Marie was fantastic to work with in selling our condo. She found the perfect buyer and made things very easy for us. She explained everything thoroughly and helped us find our next home too! She is efficient and kind and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy.
