About
Ruben Metz
Top-performing real estate agent at Keller Williams Aruba — Aruba's leading real estate agency. Specializing in luxury properties and investment real estate for international clients.
My Story
From the Netherlands
to One Happy Island
Nine years ago I made a decision that changed everything — I left Ameland and moved to Aruba. What started as a leap of faith became a deep commitment to this island, its people, and its extraordinary real estate market.
Over the past six years I have built my career as a real estate agent at Keller Williams Aruba, the island's leading real estate agency. In that time I have established myself as a top performer — not by accident, but by combining relentless drive with genuine market knowledge and an unwavering focus on quality service.
What I Specialize In
My work centres on the higher end of the Aruba real estate market. Luxury villas, investment properties, boutique apartment complexes, and high-value residential real estate — these are the transactions I know best and where I consistently deliver results for my clients.
A significant part of my client base consists of international buyers and investors from the Netherlands, Canada, the United States, and Latin America. I understand what international buyers need: clear communication, full transparency, and an advisor who actually knows the market inside out.
My Approach
I am a goal-getter by nature. Every client engagement begins with understanding exactly what you want to achieve — and ends only when we get there. Whether you are buying your dream property, building an investment portfolio, or selling at the right price, I bring the same focus and professionalism to every deal.
My clients consistently highlight the quality of my service in their reviews, and that matters deeply to me. Real estate is one of the most significant financial decisions a person makes. You deserve an agent who treats it that way.
Why Keller Williams Aruba
Keller Williams is the world's largest real estate franchise by agent count. On Aruba, our team combines that global network with deep local expertise — giving every listing international exposure while ensuring precise, on-the-ground execution.

Common Questions
Investment
Invest in Aruba
Real Estate
No capital gains tax. USD-pegged currency. Strong vacation rental yields. Aruba is one of the Caribbean's most compelling investment markets.
Why Aruba
The Investment Case
No Capital Gains Tax
Unlike most real estate markets globally, Aruba charges no annual property tax. Your returns aren't diminished by recurring ownership costs.
Currency Stability
The Aruban Florin is pegged to the USD at a fixed rate. For international investors, this removes the exchange rate volatility common in emerging markets.
Strong Vacation Rental Demand
With over 3 million visitors annually and occupancy rates among the highest in the Caribbean, short-term rental properties generate attractive gross yields.
Outside the Hurricane Belt
Aruba sits south of the hurricane belt, meaning significantly lower insurance costs and minimal weather-related investment risk year-round.
Full Foreign Ownership
No restrictions on international buyers. You hold the title outright, with the same legal rights as any Aruban property owner.
