Testimonials

At age 32 we had never owned a house or property before.  We didn't know where to begin the whole process.  A board member of the Bainbridge Historical Society (I was the Director) referred me to Paul Pival of Prudential Northwest's Poulsbo office. 

Paul laid our concerns to rest and exceeded all of our expectations.

We told Paul what we wanted and he found it where we didn't think it could be found--not in our price range anyway.   Paul explained things to us clearly and patiently, and he didn't hesitate to show us anything we wanted to see.  He didn't hold back though, and told us when he thought that we were looking at something that might not work and explained why. 

Paul listened to everything we said to him and to each other.  From our reactions to houses we saw and through our discussions with him he was able to help us see our priorities.

When our perfect house showed up Paul was absolutely poised for action.  He found our little dream house in the woods and on Bainbridge Island, the community we were convinced we couldn't afford.  Paul saw the house as soon as it was listed.  We were the first buyers to tour the house, and we loved it.  From offer to inspection to closing the entire process could not possibly have been smoother. 

Paul is professional, but he is also a joy to be around.  Friendly and cool with a great sense of humor, someone we didn't mind spending a lot of time with in the car!

If you are looking for your dream home we recommend that you work with Paul.  He will come through for you, rest assured.

Dan Eastman and Erica Varga, Bainbridge Island

Gil and I want you to know how much we enjoyed working with you when we decided to try to find a house on Bainbridge Island.  As you know, we have moved several times over the years as Gil's career has taken us to many places.  We have dealt with many realtors, and, believe me, you are right up there at the top of the list. 

It is very important to find someone who will pay attention to a customer's needs and you did that well. As a consequence, you showed us homes that were in our price range and in the locations of interest to us.  We felt we wasted no time, which was important to us.  We also appreciated all of your follow-up efforts such as help with inspections and all the details to be taken care of for the closing. You went above and beyond the call of duty!

Please feel free to use our names as references.

Gil and Sally Leiendecker, Seattle

Having Paul as our Realtor was the best move we could make. His knowledge of the Real Estate business benefited us at every turn of our transaction.  He was most valued when things did not go as planned--he kept a cool head and helped us keep ours.
