The arrival of The Agency Aruba marks our very first office on the island and further expands our presence in the Caribbean. Located in Oranjestad and serving clients throughout Aruba, the new office will be led by Managing Partners Cindy Ruittemanz and Toine Schoofs, who bring extensive local market knowledge and a deep understanding of the island’s residential, investment and vacation property markets.
“Aruba has tremendous international appeal, from its year-round climate and beautiful beaches to its strong second-home and investment market,” said Mauricio Umansky, CEO and Founder of The Agency. “The island attracts buyers from around the world who are drawn to its lifestyle, accessibility and sense of community. Cindy and Toine bring the local knowledge, relationships and service-driven approach we look for in our partners, and we are thrilled to welcome them to The Agency as we establish our presence in Aruba.”
Located in the southern Caribbean (and outside the hurricane belt), Aruba pairs more than 300 sunny days a year with 40 miles of powdery coastlines, including the top-rated Eagle Beach. A beloved Caribbean destination, this Dutch-and-English-speaking island blends laid-back, tropical charm with modern amenities.
Buyers from the U.S., Canada, and the Netherlands are increasingly drawn beyond vacation stays (seeking second homes and investment properties) thanks to direct flights, a stable economy, and strong rental demand.
“Aruba is a natural fit for The Agency’s continued international expansion, with its global appeal and international buyer base,” said James Ramsay, EVP of The Agency’s Franchise Division. “We are excited to partner with Cindy Ruittemanz and Toine Schoofs, whose local expertise, combined with our global network, will help connect sellers on the island with buyers across our markets.”
“We chose to partner with The Agency because the brand’s global reach and collaborative marketing approach put our Aruba listings in front of the right buyers, while keeping the personal service our clients expect,” said Cindy Ruittemanz, Managing Partner of The Agency Aruba.
“Clients choose us because we know Aruba’s neighborhoods, market and buying process inside and out, and that local expertise guides every decision, from a full-time residence to a vacation home or rental investment,” added Toine Schoofs, Managing Partner of The Agency Aruba.
The Agency Aruba will be located at Caya Taratata 3A, Unit 12, Oranjestad, Aruba.
