I'm VERY particular in what I wanted for my residence and Paul worked with me for over 1 year. Paul is always positive and energetic. Once we found the perfect place, Paul was instrumental in getting the deal done. I would HIGHLY recommend Paul to anyone asking. Most importantly, Paul is honest and forthright, a very ethical man in all his dealings. A++!!!

Paul has helped my family, in the SF Bay area, and will be an invaluable asset in your pursuits in the real estate market. He helped us sell the first two of our homes, helped us purchase our second home, and just recently our 3rd. He even served as property manager when we rented out our second home for a period of time. We were essentially rookies in the real estate market when we first started working with Paul, and he has served us beyond high expectations. He is respectful and professional and, when called for, a formidable negotiator. He really knows what he's doing (both buying and selling) and is patient, with tremendous listening skills.

Paul handled our difficult sale with great expertise. I was in another city throughout the process and he worked personally with my son and his fiancee who were living in the penthouse apartment and moved out before the cleaning, painting and staging process. He was always in control and upbeat and had great insight into the current market as well as the sale and transfer process. He was constantly in communication with us and guided us through each part of the entire process in a most pleasant fashion, and he achieved a sale price higher than we could have imagined. Paul is very experienced with great people as well as technical skills, and was a pleasure to work with all around. I highly recommend him.

Paul really helped us sell our house. We contacted him after hearing positive things about him. Once we met him he explained his process and some of the strategies that would make our house more desirable/profitable. Paul then became our very detail orientated realtor. Once it was time to list, he took care of all of the negotiations and all I had to do was read the emails. We ended up selling our house way above asking. Go with him and he ll help you get more money out of your house. We also used him to buy our new and present house. He negotiated the price down and we got the house for less than we initially bid.

My 85 year old mother was lost in a sea of debt and declining health when we first met Paul Tiao. My sister had found him over the Internet, when looking for Christian realtors. That was important to us, and perhaps, not as much to mom, initially. At our first meeting with Paul, together with mom, Paul brought homemade cookies and a friend my mom's age. This initial meeting was so important to us all. It was the moment when I explained to mom her critical financial situation and her need for more constant medical care. The most wonderful thing about Paul is that he doesn't speak until he needs to, but he listens well, and he did so that first day, when mom signed the paperwork and we began the process. My mom liked him immediately. Our journey to the sale of our family home was not easy. My pregnant daughter and her partner lived in my mom's home and were her caregivers. There was a tenant as well. There was quite a bit of repair that needed to be done. We needed a kind, patient, and flexible realtor, and Paul was all of the above. We had to move people from room to room to complete work. Paul was always available to our family. I live 3 hours from Berkeley, and was completing much of this long distance. He filled in for me. I was most grateful. Throughout the bids and the paperwork, Paul remained calm and kind. He became a part of our family, asking often about our family members and my granddaughter. It really was a family affair. The sale of our family home, in which we were the only family to have lived there, until sale, was a family journey. We cannot be more grateful to have had Paul by our side. He was certainly an encourager, a prayer warrior, and a friend, and most importantly, a realtor who was able to get us more for the house than we initially expected without having to pay costs which we could have.
