We had the pleasure of working with Paul Small as our real estate agent, and we couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. His deep understanding of LA neighborhoods was invaluable, guiding us to the perfect location. Above all, we appreciated his straightforward approach. He consistently prioritized our housing needs to ensure we found the right home for our family, showing a deep understanding of what was important to us.
There are many words to describe Paul Small, but here are two: patient and smart. As first-time homeowners, we came in with ideas all over the map. Luckily, Paul encouraged us to cast a wide net across LA. And then when we found “the one,” his years of dealmaking experience helped us navigate the back-and-forth negotiations and get the home for the price we wanted. We couldn't have identified and closed on our dream home without Paul.
On a daily basis we were impressed with Paul’s work ethic, vision and knowledge. He took what could have been an incredibly stressful process and made it all seem so easy. And, most importantly, his strategy resulted in multiple strong offers and a final sale price above asking. Our only regret is that we can’t work with Paul on the sale of our non-US based properties – we know from experience we will never have another real estate relationship as positive as this one.
After living in my home for more than 20 years, I feared that preparing it for listing would be a difficult emotional experience. But Paul’s advice on decluttering and his skill in spot-staging gave my home a refreshed look. More importantly, his strategy to list off-market, without public open houses gave me piece of mind. The result: in escrow after 5 days, a smooth 28 day close, the 3-week leaseback I required and a price significantly over asking. Thank you Paul for a 5-star experience.
