About us
My name is Kollin Ruiz, and I’m an investor-focused real estate agent with the Horizon Homes Group in Milwaukee, WI. I specialize in helping buyers purchase duplexes and small multifamily properties for house hacking and long-term rental investing. Growing up in a family of real estate investors, I developed a strong appreciation for how powerful real estate can be when approached with a long-term strategy. Today, I primarily work with local owner-occupants and buy-and-hold investors looking to build wealth through well-located rental properties in Milwaukee’s strongest neighborhoods. My focus is on house hacks and stable long-term rental properties, rather than short-term flip or BRRRR strategies. As part of Horizon Homes Group, our team has helped 50+ house hackers purchase duplexes in the Milwaukee area. Because we actively invest in the market ourselves, we understand the numbers, the neighborhoods, and the strategies that make these deals work. If you're actively looking to purchase a duplex or small multifamily property in Milwaukee and want an agent who understands house hacking and rental property fundamentals, feel free to reach out.

After a 6+ month search, nearly 50 tours (I lost count), and several competitive offers, we finally landed in a home we love — and we have Kollin to thank for it.
Kollin is a great listener. He always heard our thoughts and opinions, remembered what we discussed in past conversations, and we never doubted that he had our best interest in mind. His market knowledge and offer strategy were a huge help in a competitive market where we were up against multiple offers more than once.
As hopeful and eager buyers, we felt a lot of rejection and defeat along the way. Kollin remained cool, calm, and confident through it all. He kept showing up, kept advocating for us, and never let the frustration get to him — even as our little tag-a-long toddler grew wilder and fussier each month.
We truly appreciate Kollin and his team and can't recommend him enough.

Kollin was a great realtor for our first home buying experience! He made sure we felt comfortable through out the process and confident with every decision made. When making big decisions, Kollin was incredible! He always presented all options for us and gave his own opinions based on previous successful situations while still letting us be in the driver’s seat. Kollin helped us obtain our first home and we are forever grateful. You rock, Kollin!

Kollin has been great to work with! My wife and I are first time home buyers and Kollin has helped us every step of the way. From showing us houses on weeknights and weekends, to answering random questions we have about the process, Kollin has been the man!

Kollin did a fantastic job helping me through my first transaction as a seller. He walked me through the process with detailed instructions that, besides niche cases, already answered any questions I would have had. When listing the house he went out of his way to advertise through any avenue that was available. Advertisements, mailers, emails, contacting other agents, door to door, the list goes on and on. Once we had an offer in hand he walked me through it in a way that demonstrated his strong grasp on the process. Throughout the process he offered solid advice, I can't say enough good things about his proficiency as an agent. I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Kollin is a fantastic agent. He worked with me for months to find just the right investment property. He's patient, thorough, responsive, and a great negotiator. As an out-of-town investor, I was so grateful to have such an honest and industrious agent in my corner! Even after closing on the property, he's always just a text message or phone call away if I need a referral for a job, or just a thought partner as I consider a new investment strategy. I cannot recommend him more highly!
