With more than nine years at Ruhl&Ruhl Realtors, Danielle Schertz brings a practical, straightforward approach to helping buyers and sellers throughout the Quad Cities. She serves clients in Davenport, Bettendorf, Moline, Rock Island, Eldridge, LeClaire, and surrounding communities, with experience assisting first-time homebuyers, growing families looking for more space, and empty nesters preparing for their next move.

Danielle combines years of local real estate experience with a calm, no-pressure approach. She believes clients should feel informed rather than sold to, so she focuses on clear communication, honest advice, and helping people understand their options at every stage of the buying or selling process.

Her background gives her a unique perspective when evaluating a home. Before real estate, Danielle spent more than a decade working in software design, marketing, and architecture. That experience helps her recognize layout possibilities, staging opportunities, and creative ways a property may better fit a buyer’s needs or appeal to potential buyers when it is time to sell.

Whether she is helping a first-time buyer understand the process, advising a family that needs more room, preparing a home for the market, or helping an empty nester simplify, Danielle keeps her clients’ goals at the center of every decision. When challenges arise, she brings a steady approach to problem-solving and works through the details so clients can move forward with confidence.

Danielle is also deeply connected to the Quad Cities community. In addition to working in real estate, she is a small business owner in LeClaire and has been involved with local schools and the elementary PTA. Outside of work, she enjoys college football, softball, and spending time improving her own 1920s Craftsman home.
