Very grounded and down-to-earth vibe. Didn't have a "salesy" feel and was very responsive to my questions and needs. He secured the deal on our new home in San Rafael and even went to the building and permits department the morning we had to put our offer in to clarify some last minute permitting questions. He also gave us the contact info for a private lender that made the purchase possible for us in the first place. I also like working with Redfin in general because of the ease of scheduling home viewings on short notice. It's not always Paul showing the homes, but it's nice to just be able to get into a place quickly when something appealing comes on the market to either know if you wanna move on it, or eliminate the possibility. Would definitely recommend.

Redfin paired us with Paul as our agent and we couldn’t have asked for a better match. As first time home buyers, Paul was patient with all our questions and helped us understand the home buying process. With his many years of experience in the area, he offered valuable advice and was always available when we needed him. When it came to making an offer he was incredibly adept at working with the other agents and negotiating for us. We ended up with an amazing home that we are very happy with - thank you Paul! As Seattle natives, we have had a few family friends who worked for and recommended Redfin. We appreciated the ease of use of their website and scheduling home tours. Unlike other real estate companies, RedFin matched us with an agent familiar with the areas we were focusing on our... Show More

I can't imagine a better agent to help you through the home-buying process. Paul sets the bar pretty high. He's knowledgeable and communicative, was always available when I reached out with questions and never condescending when I had dumb questions. I spoke to at least a half dozen other agents before meeting Paul and knew instantly that he was the guy to get us from zero to moved into our new house. Done!

Paul has been awesome to work with. We were first time homebuyers and had no idea what we were doing, but Paul was extremely helpful and supportive throughout the process. He helped us figure out what to look for, how to listen to our gut when deciding whether or not to move forward, and how to make the right offer that made sense for us. Paul was never pushy and it really felt like he had our best interests at heart. Many thanks to Paul and his team for helping us find and close on our dream home!

Kind, professional, warm, Paul was terrific to work with. He took care of everything and made the sale of our home easy. In addition, through his guidance, we received a tremendous offer, well over asking. We couldn’t be more grateful.
We needed to move faster than expected when we found the right home on our first tour. Paul was very efficient and responsive. Even though it was Thanksgiving week and he was out of town, Paul was able to facilitate all the communication, negotiation, and paperwork, and we got the deal done quickly with good terms.
Paul has been a blessing every step of the way. This was a long journey for me, but he never stopped being encouraging and was always available to answer any questions or qualm some anxiety. He was truly great!

It took a few bids for us to land the right home in this crazy market, but each time he helped us find the right balance to place a strong bid without taking on unnecessary risk. He's also very responsive and easy to get ahold of.

This was our second time working with Paul to purchase a home. We would recommend his help to anyone looking in the Marin area. He always goes above and beyond to make sure we have everything we need to make an informed decision. Our purchase could not have gone any smoother. Thanks Paul!
Working with Paul was an absolute dream, and we feel extremely lucky that he was our agent. Paul is a great listener, knows the Marin market well, and is a person of deep integrity. He was patient and focused on making sure we found a home we were thrilled with, not just one that checked off a few boxes. It took us nearly a year from start to finish to find the right home (this wasn't exactly a normal year), and it was a great relief to be able to rely on Paul's expertise throughout the process. I would recommend Paul without reservation, you will not be disappointed.

He was a great agent and I would most definitely recommend him.

I was referred to Paul by a friend that had made a recent purchase with him. Paul was an outstanding agent from minute one. He returned my immediately for an introduction, he was always available or made sure someone on his team was available to show me any home I was interested in, and when I was ready to make an offer he was on it immediately with no delays. This is a hot market, my transaction was seamless. Paul is a joy to work with and most importantly knows his market inside and out. He is well respected in the community and that is incredibly important in this environment.

Paul is calm, thoughtful, and we felt that he always had our best interest in mind. He was an excellent partner in our home search and in the buying process. We spoke with a few other agents when we first started looking and found them extremely pushy. One even spent time disparaging their competition. From the first time we met Paul he recommended we talk to others and find the right fit. We found this refreshingly honest. We’re so pleased we stuck with him. He’s a genuinely nice guy and a pleasure to work with.

This is our second home purchase and working with Paul was incredible - I can’t think of a way we could have felt more cared for or more trust. He’s generous with his time, deeply knowledgeable about the market, and there’s no sales pitch; He helped us avoid a couple of pitfalls we never would have seen, and we found the house we love at the right price. We will always work with Paul in the future.
I was hesitant to get paired with a random realtor from the internet, but Paul was outstanding. Friendly, knowledgeable, flexible, and diligent - Paul was great to have on our side as we went through several complex offers. When our plans changed fairly dramatically(fixer -> vacant land), Paul adapted immediately and helped us close on a property we love.
Paul was absolutely incredible. He was so patient, sticking with me through all of my questions, and through a challenging transaction that was on and off three times and plagued by financing issues. He also provided great insight on the area and the schools, and great advice on how to respond to the sellers and keep the deal alive. I have an amazing house thanks to Paul’s help. He is also a super nice guy.
Paul is a great guy. He is easy to work with, reliable, informed, trustworthy and punctual. We highly appreciate his professionalism and expertise. He goes above and beyond for his clients!

Paul was our strong advocate and helped us to navigate both negotiations with the seller and lots of unfamiliar paperwork.
Paul was the best agent one could ask for. We feel lucky to have had Paul as our representative and support system throughout this process. Buying a home is never a minor undertaking, but Paul and his team made every step of the way feel very easy and smooth. Paul could always answer or find the answers for any of our questions. He was honest in his answers, which gave us trust and confidence in his guidance. I never had to follow up on things, because Paul had it all under control.

Here is what sets Paul apart. First, he is incredibly responsive and works incredibly hard at all hours to help get deals done, no matter the obstacles. He listens extremely well and understands his customers needs. Not only that, he is very transparent about his views on the market and any particular property and gives consistently good advice about pricing, value, and risks. At the same time, he applies no pressure on any particular deal and lets customers go at their own pace.

Paul was fantastic to work with. He listens, he's accommodating, he's organized, he's informed and supportive - he's on top of his game. Working as an agent suits him really well. A huge asset to Redfin. We are looking to buy a second rental property in the next 1-2 years, and we will only work with Paul at Redfin. It has been an outstanding experience. We tell everyone we know about our experience. It was so easy. All the documents came super quick. Paul even responded to a question with a follow up call while he was on vacation on Sunday! Unbelievable. He is a hard worker. We made an offer and closed on the house in less than 29 days. This was our first house and I can't believe how easy it was. Paul recommended a great inspector. We had the inspector scheduled the day after we made... Show More

It was an incredible experience working with Paul in acquiring our property. He really looked out for our interests throughout the process, and we never really felt like we were being pressured into a decision. Paul is extremely knowledgeable about the housing market in the area we were interested and often offered invaluable insight which helped inform our decision. I would highly recommend working with Paul if he serves the area you are interested in.
Paul has very deep knowledge and understanding of east bay market. He was on point when it comes to price. He was very active in getting last minute open house request whenever it was needed. He provided a backup when he was not available to show us house personally. He also guarded us from the all spam selling agents for random houses where we didn't show any interest in.
His insights were very helpful in making our decision to final house we bought through him.
Besides work he is a very nice person. He gave us personal advice whenever it was needed. He was professional when it comes to dealing with seller agent. Being rookie in the house market, he educated us about the whole Bay area market from his experience. It was a great working experience and I'd totally recommend him .

The service was too-notch from start to finish. He was very responsive to our every single questions( he would even answer emails at 11 PM). Overall, we are very happy and satisfied and fortunate to have someone so dedicated like Paul work with us and help us buy our first house.

By sheer luck we were paired up with Paul when we signed up for home tours through RedFin. He has been an absolute joy to work with. We are first time home buyers, hadn't a clue what type of home we wanted and a vague idea of the East Bay areas to focus on. Over our 1.5 year search, Paul has helped guide us with his knowledge of both the East Bay and potential of the properties we were looking at. We never felt rushed or dumb for asking so many questions. He was always available and we trusted and valued his input. We made several offers, and each time Paul went to bat for us as enthusiastically as the first and helped us negotiate a super deal on our purchase. We can't recommend Paul enough - he is diligent, professional, knowledgable and just plain fun to work with.

Paul was absolutely available whenever we needed to get into and check out several properties over a long period of time, and he successfully advocated for us in getting the place we wanted in a multiple offer situation! The best part for us was that he was totally relaxed and never pressuring us one way or the other. He's a great listener, so rare these days!
Great and knowledgeable agent who has your best interests at heart. Would highly recommend him to anyone.

We were first time home buyers and Paul walked us through every step of the process with kindness, integrity, and knowledge. We always felt like he had our best interest in mind and never pushed us on price. More importantly, he really guided us on the difficult and emotionally draining process of buying a new home. We are very grateful to have Paul help us purchase our home.

Paul is kind, thoughtful, and extremely helpful. I never felt that he pushed us to a higher price and really negotiated on our behalf. My partner was weary of pushy salesman types that we encounter with other real estate agents. However, Paul is very thoughtful and really attempts to understand the buyers' needs and wants and find a house that meets all their requirements and more.

Paul is one of the most considerate, warm-hearted and genuine people (much less realtor) that I've had the pleasure of getting to know. Within the span of just a couple of weeks, we identified a number of suitable properties for which to conduct a 1031 Exchange. Paul drove us to numerous properties, always offering his insight on the pros and cons of each place. In the crazy market that is NOBE, we submitted a couple of offers and were outbid, but Paul was spot on with his initial assessments and feel for the market. Through it all, however, Paul remained conscientious in helping us find a suitable investment property that we might one day want move into and call home. We hope to work with Paul again in the near future! AAA+++!!!

We cannot say enough about Paul. In this stressful and expensive market, Paul helped us avoid rushing into something too soon making it possible for us to find our perfect house. He gave us incredible advice while we were looking, but also did so in a competitive bidding situation, helping us secure a great home at the right price. He never made us feel pressured and was extremely knowledgable about the various Marin neighborhoods and areas, the market, and houses in general. In addition, he's personable and just a great guy!

He was approachable, easy to work with, always honest but encouraging, and quick to respond to my many questions about houses. He was always so receptive to the list of houses I would send to him and would go above and beyond to give us comparative prices of neighboring houses, his thoughts about the neighborhood based on our taste, and what he felt about the house/area. He always encouraged us to feel happy and comfortable with our decision, even when we had to pull out of almost bidding when we got cold feet at the last minute, even though he'd prepared all the documents. Paul is a great agent and we would recommend him to everyone!

Paul is an amazing agent.
As first time homebuyers, he guided us through seeing open houses, putting in an offer, and in the end purchasing a place. His steady and calm demeanor stabilized my more anxious energy and made house hunting enjoyable. He set appointments for our home inspection, worked diligently to gather information on the HOA and provided me with resources I’d need to not only buy the place, but people I’d need to hire to fix small issues once we moved in.
He’s trustworthy, friendly, resourceful and I recommend him without hesitation.

Paul is a great agent. His professional expertise helped me get the property under contract just after the broker tour and before the open house and the seller ultimately cancelled the open house. After completing inspections, the seller was unwilling to reduce the price. I decided the property required too much work and I cancelled contract. Paul was very supportive of my decision and encouraged me to cancel contract if I was uncomfortable. I am looking forward to buying my first property with Paul. I can firmly say Paul is my real estate advocate.
