ASSOCIATE BROKER

For me, being a Real Estate Agent is an opportunity to help create a memorable experience for my clients and their families. Buying or selling a home is one of life’s biggest moments, and I love to help educate and offer guidance in an effort to provide a seamless process.

I am a huge believer that a house should be a home, not just a building, and finding that perfect fit is the most rewarding part of my job.

Licensed since 2017, I utilize my years of previous hospitality experience to create lasting client relationships to handle all things real estate related. I currently serve on the GRAR Community Crisis Fund and am a member of the 2024 GRAR Leadership Academy. 

Originally from the Detroit area and after over a decade in Chicago, I relocated to Grand Rapids in 2015 to be closer to my twin brother and his family. It is a move I will forever be thankful for, as a few months later, I met my now wife, Christina.

When I’m not working, we do our best to get outside and enjoy everything Michigan has to offer, including camping in the UP, golf at one of the many great courses around town, heading up north for a ski weekend or simply taking our dog, Penny, out for an adventure.

  • “Our search for our first home could not have been better if it weren’t for Paul. From start to finish he made the home buying process smooth and stress free for us. Paul is very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of helpful resources throughout and after our home journey. He made sure we felt comfortable every step of the way and was always receptive and caring to our needs and wants. If you want a fantastic experience when it comes to buying a home, Paul is the answer to your search. He not only is a fantastic agent, but as a person, Paul has a great personality as we all bonded quickly making it even more of an enjoyable and memorable experience.”

  • “This is the second time I have used Paul, he’s a wonderful person that is easy to work with. He’s on top of his game when it comes to selling or buying real estate I would highly recommend him!!!”

    - Steve C.

  • “Paul is everything you want in a realtor: Caring, Respectful, Humble, Confident, & Knows how to get the deal done. I wanted to do FSBO, but opted to go with Paul after hearing about him from an associate. Boy, I was happy with the choice. He handled everything like a pro. He has a 'winner mentality' and genuinely cares about his clients and was respectful of our goals throughout the process. He doesn't have 'commission eyes' he just wants to do his best work and the results will follow. Paul sold our home and met/exceeded our expectations. By far the best realtor I've ever worked with, personally. 10/10 highly recommend having someone in your corner like Paul.”

    - Bryan R.

  • “As a first time home buyer, Paul made the home buying experience virtually painless! He paid an extraordinary amount of detail to my individual needs and was able to translate my intangible wants into tangible qualities within a home. Mostly importantly, he is a great communicator. He will keep you in the loop every step of the way and doesn't bat an eye at any question you throw his way—big or small”

    - Jenna M.

  • “Paul was a dream to work with. He was always upbeat and positive in all our showings. His interest was in us finding a home that was a good fit for us and not in making a sale. We must have dragged Paul around town to at least 12 showings (for which I felt terrible) but to him, this was part of ensuring we found the right home for us! Paul was extremely knowledgeable of school districts, desirable areas and always ready to recommend a vendor for any repair needs that might come up. Once we found the right home, the buying process was effortless. We were able to complete all the required documents online and Paul even knew our bank representative and worked with them directly. With Paul, our first offer was accepted and now we live in our dream home thanks to him. I would recommend Paul to anyone looking for a real agent in Grand Rapids, Michigan who truly cares about finding your perfect home!”

    - Josh & Leidy F.

  • “Buying a home can be stressful. Paul made it fun! We really enjoyed the process and look forward to working with him again someday in the future. Not only was he prompt, thorough and knowledgeable, he was a great person to get to know! I recommend anyone to work with Paul to find their dream home. We couldn't be happier with our experience.”

    - Tiffany M.

  • “Paul was absolutely fantastic in helping us through our first home buying process! He was willing and able to answer all of the million questions that we had. He was also able to navigate our busy schedules to schedule viewings, even on short notice. I will absolutely be referring friends and family to Paul!”

    - Zach & Kellie C.

  • “I couldn’t speak more highly of my experience with Paul! As a first-time homebuyer, I naturally had a lot of questions about the entire process, all of which he was able to answer for me in a way I could easily understand. Paul has tons of great resources and connections, was always timely with communication, and most importantly—truly understood what I was looking for and had my best interest at heart every step of the way. I would recommend Paul to anyone (and have been, hehe). Thanks for helping me find my very first home, Paul!”

    - Natalie H.

  • “Paul was exceptional. We have flipped several houses in Michigan but never have we had an agent who was so immediately responsive, attentive and protective of our needs. In this market you can’t waste time and Paul never let us down. He is a straightforward professional of honesty and integrity. He helped us land our forever home and we couldn’t be happier.”

    - Arnold H.

  • “I would highly recommend friends and family work with Paul in the GR area. We were new to the city and relied on his local expertise to guide us through the stressful process of finding a new home. Though we were fairly picky, he stuck with us through the process and was responsive and engaging throughout. We ended up closing during the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and Paul was able to guide us through that as well. Since the closing, he's stayed in touch to make sure we're settled and has been a great resource. Overall, would be happy to work with Paul again and would refer anyone looking in the area to do the same.”
