“We worked with Paul Salazar over three years to find our dream home. We gave him a list of historic homes in Los Angeles that we were interested in, and Paul tracked down the owners, sometimes going door-to-door to see if they were interested in selling. Throughout this, he stayed positive, encouraging us to not settle for anything less than the best. For every house, he researched comps for the area, giving us an idea of what each home was worth at the time and would be down the road.  In every case, he was spot on, understanding that although this was our dream house, it was also an investment. He never pushed us into a quick sale as we saw so many other realtors do. In every case, he became an expert of the neighborhood, its past and its potential, and taught us all about short sales, HPOZ guidelines, Mills Act, Historic Cultural Monuments, and Easement Laws. Paul ended up finding our dream home that was off-market by combing through EVERY SINGLE historic home that was for rent in Los Angeles. By being persistently in touch with the agent, Paul got the owner to agree to sell us the house. During the offer process, Paul was our coach and our therapist, fielding calls from us multiple times a day. After the owner accepted our offer, Paul then found us an incredible lender, who gave us the best rates that the escrow agent had ever seen. Paul didn’t end there, he and his team were extremely hands on during the inspection process, and he successfully negotiated $170,000 for repairs. We have owned our home for less than a month, and Zillow already lists it for $700,000 more than we bought it for. Our family could not be happier with Paul Salazar and his team,they really have become a part of our family.”
