Paul helped me sell a condo in 2019. It was tough season because the real estate market was slower than prior year. He did open house every week and the result was good. He was knowledgeable, patient and deligent. Paul is also very responsive in communication and always replied my email in a timely manner.
When I decided to buy a home during a pandemic, let alone in the SF Bay Area, I knew I was in for a major challenge. But when I met Paul, I was able to count on him throughout the process. Paul's greatest traits are his patience, knowledge, and communicativeness. He greatly exceeded my expectations in every regard. As a first time homebuyer, I had a myriad of questions. He is incredibly patient and knowledgable. After looking at several homes, I finally found the one I loved. He gave me realistic expectations on what I should offer to get the home, and was very candid about the risks and benefits, never once pressuring me to make a decision. Paul ultimately helped us get the home of our dreams. Better yet, it was first home that we bid on, all while paying a very reasonable price! It felt like the odds were against in the beginning, and I'm still shocked by how smoothly the process went during these unprecedented times. I really have to give Paul a lot of credit for this. Once our offer was accepted, Paul was very effective at communicating with listing agents and my loan officer, ensuring that I closed escrow on time. Before receiving my keys, Paul left no stone unturned, ensuring the house was in tip top shape like the day I first saw it. His attention to detail was admirable. I would highly recommend Paul to any prospective buyer.
Paul helped us buy a house in Fremont. He is a very reliable, trustworthy and detail-oriented agent. During house selection phase, Paul could always find houses that met all of our requirements and we really appreciate it. Paul is also very responsive in communication and always replies our emails in a timely manner. Paul is super helpful and knowledgable. He not only guided us through the home buying process but also provided us useful information in other areas such as tax, insurance and local restaurants to name a few. I will definitely recommend him to my friends and work with him again in the future.
paul and his partner jean-luc are the best rel estate professional in compass (former APR). they are super knowledgeable and responsive, which is critical for real estates selling. i am totally satisfied with their excellent services and strongly recommend everyone who is planning sell talk to them!!!
My wife and I worked with Paul to purchase our first home, as a first time homebuyer, we were not familiar with the terminology or the best process people to involve. Right away, Paul was incredibly friendly and took time to sit down with my wife and I to determine what would be a good fit for us. He even recommended a lending agent, which we ended up using and greatly appreciated. Paul is very knowledgeable, approachable, personable, endlessly patient and incredibly generous with his time. He answered every question and explained every form and every part of the process clearly and thoroughly. Buying a home in summer 2018 market was very challenging, but working with Paul made it as painless and straightforward as possible. Paul used to provide Comparable Sales numbers and his own assessment for every home before bidding, this tremendously helped us make informed decision. We highly recommend Paul.
My family (of 5) recently moved from Boston to Fremont, California. We’d only been in the US for 2 years so things still felt new to us. We couldn’t have asked for better support and partnership from Paul and we were only looking for rentals (which is when you usually get ignored)! He kept our needs and wants in mind when searching for places. He had priceless information of all the areas we were looking at (none of the websites know what he knows)! He was responsive, made himself available at all times and was open and honest throughout the whole process. I couldn’t recommend him any more highly. I hope to be able to work with him to purchase a home one day!
I was in the market for my first home in the area and as a first time home buyer, I was so lucky to have met Paul. He is extremely patient, knowledgable, and helpful from the moment we met to even months after we closed escrow. Throughout the whole process, he made himself readily available to be there when we needed him. He listened to what I wanted, was proactive on things I didn't even know I needed and spent a great amount of time helping me track down the perfect first home. Paul made my first-time home buying experience the best it could have possibly been. I would highly recommend Paul to anyone and everyone looking to purchase a home in the Bay Area.
Paul helped us with the purchase of our dream home recently in a very competitive market. He guided us through the entire process from screening through listings to providing us with invaluable resources. I would recommend him to my friends and family without hesitation. He is professional, energetic, patient, thorough, reliable, and efficient. He is the agent you can count on for your big purchase!!
I'm so incredibly grateful for Paul. He has clear industry knowledge and expertise that he uses to represent his clients in the best possible way. He helped me accept a strong offer for my previous home and negotiate a winning offer for a new home. We are in an incredibly competitive market, and Paul made sure to give me his honest opinion on what I should be doing in order to protect my best interests and find a home that I love. He spent an incredible amount of time with me to prepare my home to show (he even helped me move furniture and hung up artwork!) so that it was in tip top shape for photos and open houses. My house looked incredible on the fliers and the website (and definitely in person, too). He took so much care and put so much time into doing open houses every weekend and he followed up with any agents or visitors who showed interest. Once I accepted an offer, Paul gave me solid advice and guided me through the process and made sure I was completely satisfied with the terms I was accepting. Once I accepted an offer on my previous home, Paul made an incredible pivot to helping me find a new home. He made multiple trips (in pouring rain, no less!) to open houses and made private appointments for me at certain homes. He really understood that type of home I was looking for and what I needed to have vs. things that I would like to have. When I made an offer on a home, Paul made sure that I had a competitive offer and followed up directly with agents. He made sure that I was able to put personal touches on my letters to sellers which made my offer more appealing. Paul is a top notch real estate professional and I would recommend him to anyone buying or selling a home in the bay area. I sold in San Jose and purchased in San Francisco, and Paul was able to adjust well to both markets and give me advice based on location. The patience and good guiding sense he provides to his clients is unlike anything else I've ever experienced.
