Paul was probably the best you could have in an agent. He responded to every email and every call within minutes. He was available and worked all seven days of the week showing homes, preparing contracts, taking calls. He was over the top with his work. When we bought a home he tested out the trampoline with a full Olympic performance. The sellers left the house a mess, he spent several hours cleaning the house himself including scrubbing the oven and vacuuming.

I highly recommend Paul and the team at Lee Tessier. Paul recently helped my husband and I buy our first home in the Riverside neighborhood of Baltimore City. Paul was extremely responsive and helped make a stressful process moved forward as seamlessly as possible. I had a million questions that Paul responded to expeditiously and patiently. When it came time to negotiating a few issues with the sellers, he was informed and helped us make educated decisions. We LOVE our new home and appreciate Paul’s help.

Paul could not have gone more above and beyond to help my family find our perfect home in an incredibly complex move situation. Both my wife and I are active duty military and were slated to transfer from California to Maryland, had just delivered our first child in April, and had deadline to transfer in early July. We were not allowed to travel to home shop due to the ongoing COVID-19 crisis we were desperately looking for a realtor we could trust to help us find our new home site unseen. Paul took a personal interest in helping our family, using video walkthroughs, detailed descriptions and mountains of pictures. Hearing that we were concerned about the neighborhoods just as much as the home itself, Paul came up with the ingenious idea to mount his phone to his dashboard and take video driving around the area. In addition to the vast scope of his home tours, Paul also pointed out minute details; evidence of past water damage, potential appliance age, roof age/condition, even at one point almost crawling under a shed to check for signs of rot. Paul's detailed knowledge left us with the feeling of a full home inspection, not just a tour. You could tell he wasn't in this just for a sale, he genuinely wanted to help us find the perfect place with no hidden problems and recommended against many of the homes we toured as either not the right fit, too high out of our budget or had some underlying problems we may not have seen without such an in-depth look. He further displayed his work ethic through constant listing searches, often working past midnight to line up visits for us. Eventually all of Paul's diligence and hard work paid off with an incredible colonial home with a park-like backyard in our preferred city, with great access to schools and trails, everything we wanted in a house. I can't rate this highly enough and will absolutely recommend anyone looking for a home in this area to consider Paul and Lee Tessier realty.

Paul Johnsen is the best Realtor, very Professional, dedicated to ensuring the best for your family. 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿

I met Paul thru a friend of mine's referral. Due to COVID situation and I was living in different state when we started exchanging emails/text messages. He was extremely reliable and thorough with every step of the process. We ran into some issues with mortgage company but Paul was extremely knowledgeable/helpful to come up with plan B, C and D. Always replied back to my text/email without any delay and I honestly felt like he represented me very well through out the process. Also, he's a very easy going, easy to talk to and just a good person to get to know. I would highly highly recommend Paul to my families.

We were blessed to have Paul help us with our purchase. He was the most professional and helpful agent! Paul fully understood what we were looking for and never stopped looking and trying to come up with ideas. We started our process right as the COVID-19 pandemic began, and he adjusted flawlessly through that, along with dealing with a seller who pulled out of a contract and another seller's agent who was surprisingly and unexpectedly very difficult. If we ever need to go through this again - Paul will be our first choice - hands down! I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for their new home. He is detail oriented and very knowledgeable. Thanks, Paul - you are part of our family now at Oakey Oaks! 😊

Amazing buying experience, he asked us what we wanted in a house and really looked for all we requested, kept us informed always. Was available anytime to take calls and texts. Highly recommend

My husband and I recently worked with Paul Johnsen of the Lee Tessier Team of Tessier Real Estate for the purchase of our first home out in Carroll County. Throughout the entire process, from scheduling showings to ensuring an on time closing despite statewide shutdowns due to COVID-19, Paul worked tirelessly to make the whole experience as stress free and as straightforward as possible. Being first time home buyers, Paul made sure to take the time and effort to walk us through every step of the process and to make sure we fully understood every part and answered all of our (many) questions. He kept in constant contact, maintained schedules for showings and all other aspects of the process and truly took the time to understand our needs when looking for a home. He worked very well with our mortgage lender, the home inspectors, and the title company. Paul made sure everything, and everyone was moving smoothly throughout the process. All in all, we would absolutely recommend Paul for his professionalism, expertise and all the services he offers to any of our friends and family looking to buy a home in and around the Baltimore area.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Paul to purchase my first home. Paul came highly recommended by a friend and I will be forever grateful for that recommendation! Being a first-time home buyer with little knowledge of the process I felt intimidated at first, but after my first conversation with Paul I knew right away that I was in good hands. Paul is unquestionably very knowledgeable, but he also did a great job explaining things and guiding me to where I always felt comfortable and never felt that I didn’t understand any part of the process. Paul was responsive and dedicated, treating me like I was his only client. Paul always had my best interests in mind and I could 100% trust that I was making the right decisions thanks to his guidance. I can’t imagine having a more positive experience during this big moment and I recommend him without reservation to anyone looking to buy! Thanks, Paul!
