About Jeff Ruff

Licensed in 1990, Jeff launched his real estate career with Brunner REALTORS® after owning and operating a distinguished men’s clothing store in German Village and Downtown Columbus. Having grown up in the city, Jeff brings lifelong knowledge and genuine enthusiasm to helping clients—especially those relocating—discover what makes Columbus so special. From historic neighborhoods and arts institutions to local dining and trusted resources, Jeff has built a reputation for making transitions seamless and informed. His deep appreciation for history and architecture has made him the go-to agent for many unique and historic homes across Central Ohio.

 

Jeff’s passion extends beyond homes to horses. After more than two decades in German Village, Jeff and his partner, Roy, relocated to a small farm near New Albany to pursue his longtime love of raising and showing hunter/jumpers. This hands-on experience has also made him a trusted guide for clients searching for equestrian properties. Jeff is a proud member of Rocky Fork Headley Hunt and a committed supporter of organizations such as Dreams on Horseback and PBJ Connections, which connect children with the healing power of horses. To call Jeff an animal lover is an understatement—his compassion for animals shines just as brightly as his dedication to his clients.
