My experience buying my new home with Paul Caparas was professional, informative and most of all enjoyable. I had my heart set on a certain area and complex but the homes just didn't feel quite right. Paul encouraged me to look at a home he had chosen in a different area close by based on my comments.

Services
I specialize in Buying and Selling real estate in San Diego since 2003. Working through both a real estate boom and real estate crash, I've gained experience with traditional sales, short sales, foreclosures, flipped homes and investment properties. I was born and raised here in San Diego. To be specific, I grew up in Rancho Penasquitos, Mira Mesa, Rancho Bernardo and Scripps Ranch.
Mira Mesa is one of San Diego's largest communities with a great location between the I-15 and I-805 freeways, south of Rancho Penasquitos, and north of Miramar. Schools to this neighborhood are part of the San Diego Unified School District, and many have won awards. Mira Mesa is also known for its abundance of various businesses, of employers, restaurants, retail shops, and fun family possibilities.
Rancho Bernardo is a large community made of two zip codes. The zip code 92127 of Rancho Bernardo is located west of the I-15, and north of Rancho Penasquitos. This side of Rancho Bernardo has newer communities such as 4S Ranch, Santaluz and Del Sur. Also for the community in 4S Ranch, a beautiful and newly built town center includes a Ralph's grocery store, Bed Bath and Beyond, Blockbuster and much more.
A Short Sale is when a homeowner and lender agree to sell the home for less than how much is owed. The lender will also typically agree to pay additional costs such as brokers fees, attorney fees and closing cost fees which means No Cost to You to do a Short Sale! Selling your home by Short Sale isn't a easy transaction and it takes months of negotiations with the Lender to agree to the Short Sale.

8 years ago, Paul helped us buy our first home in Mira Mesa. Back then, it was a house that had good bones and we knew that we had to put some work into it. Throughout the years, we renovated the kitchen, took away the popcorn ceiling, installed hardwood floors, remodeled the bathrooms, installed air conditioning, updated the yards, and put in double-pane windows. Now that we are moving, we've asked Paul Caparas to help us sell our house.
Paul gave us great advice on the timing of when to sell the house and the list price. He has many years of experience and he knows the San Diego housing

Couldn't be happier working with Paul as our Realtor. He is very professional and walked us through the entire process from start to finish. He helped us strategize months before we were ready to purchase a new home by analyzing the market and really understanding what we wanted for our forever home. He sold our house and also found us our forever home.
We saw many homes during the process and Paul was always there even when we told him that it was ok, that we would just go to open houses ourselves. He always wanted to be there to make sure that we were all making an informed decision

If you're looking to purchase a house or sell your current home, Paul Caparas is your guy. He is honest, knowledgeable, and reliable.
We recently purchased our first home and called Paul right away. Without hesitation, Paul was eager to get the process rolling and help us find our home. Little did we know, we started the process just in the nick of time. If we waited a few more weeks, the market's limited supply and high demand would have made our search difficult. However, it was Paul's encouragement and expertise that helped to make our decision one of the best decisions we have

We recently moved into our brand new home and couldn't have gotten through the whole process without Paul's expertise and guidance. We were both first time homebuyers and we are so grateful and appreciative of having Paul on our side. From the first step to the last step on the homebuying process, Paul was there for us no matter what time of day it was, he made sure that he was available whenever we needed him. Whether it's a simple question or just having him review a document that was sent to us by the lender or the builder, he made sure that he made time for us. Since this was

Ahhhhh-mazing! That's the experience my wife and I have with Paul in the search for our first home. Professional, honest, knowledgeable, experienced and supportive. He has helped guide us for the last 6 months until we found "OUR" home. He was attentive and listened to what we wanted...then provided sound advice....then let us make our decision. He allowed us to take a break when we were busy and frustrated...and was fully available to us whenever we were ready to view or talk. He was engaged through the whole process and was able to answer all questions.

Paul was very professional, honest, and straightforward. It was comforting to know we had someone looking out for our best interests in all aspects of the deal. He brought a great deal of knowledge and experience to the table and we found comfort in letting him represent us. I would recommend Paul to anyone in the market for an agent.

Paul is an incredible real estate agent who helped us sell, lease, and purchase our forever home. In addition to Paul's expertise, he pulled in a colleague who was an expert in the Rancho Santa Fe Market. As a result, we had two amazing realtors to work with who coordinated everything for us. Paul listed and sold our home $500,000 above the listing price other agents recommended. When we received initial low offers, Paul encouraged us not to accept and to hold out for the price we wanted even if it meant more time on the market. It was obvious that he had our best our interest in mind as opposed

Immediately after starting to work with Paul we knew he went above and beyond what most real estate agents go. This was our first home buying experience, and right away we could tell Paul would be patient and willing to educate us on the process. One of Paul's great attributes is his honesty. He was upfront about the market, what our expectations should be when we put offers on houses, and provided guidance to assist making decisions.
After becoming discouraged with the current market, we took a brief pause in our search. At the end of October, we contacted Paul and put him in a near impossible

If you are looking for a house, new or used, Paul is your man. He helped me and my wife start the process of looking for our first house a few years ago when we were considering buying. He checked in on us every couple of months to see if there was anything we needed. He continuously monitored the market and would occasionally present us with some options that might interest us. In late 2016, we found a brand new development to buy in San Marcos and Paul hit the ground running to make sure the buying process was as smooth as possible. He was also brutally honest with his opinions about location

Paul is the best! My husband and I were buying our first home and interviewed a few different agents - Paul's outstanding work is true to his 5-star reviews. He led a perfect balance between allowing us to lead decisions with sound advice and recommendations. With Paul, we never felt pressured and he was extremely responsive and knowledgeable.

Paul was a referral to my daughter when she started to look for her first home. Paul showed probably about 5 properties to her over a period of several months. He was always prompt, friendly and professional.
Because she really didn't know what was available in her price range Paul gauged her interest in the first few properties and pretty much knew what she was looking for and equally as important what she wasn't interested in
She finally found a listed and location she wanted and Paul was there to negotiate the best deal. He was also present at each of the steps of the buying process

We found Paul through YELP & we’re so glad we did! We purchased our first home in 2013 and had no idea what to expect since we were first time homebuyers. But were not worried as Paul was able to explain everything in layman’s terms. Paul is very professional, knowledgeable & really is an expert in his field.
We decided to sell our home and simultaneously purchase another one in 2019, which was another nerve wrecking process, but we fully trusted Paul & knew he would be able to work his magic.
After sending him a few homes we were interested in, we were able to see the homes in person as

We were looking to relocate from the Bay Area to San Diego and turned to Paul to help us with our home search. My husband and I differed in opinions and in budget and Paul was the guiding light and really helped to reel us both in when it came to both of our expectations. At the end of the long search, we pulled the trigger on a home that met all of our asks, kept both of our standards intact, and in a neighborhood that we adore and plan to stay in and pass on to our kids. Paul was super patient and was very helpful in navigating the process with us and was very transparent throughout the whole

For anyone looking for the best real estate agent ever, look no further and hire Paul Caparas. He is simply the most professional, courteous and knowledgeable agent there is. He works hard to not only meet your expectations, but to surpass them.

Paul helped us sell our home in 4S Ranch (Rancho Bernardo), and buy a new house in Rancho Tesoro (San Marcos). We love our new home and we loved working with Paul!
Our family has very little experience selling homes, so we wanted to make sure we worked with someone who we felt comfortable with and was easy to talk to. Paul made sure to explain everything we did not understand and always suggested different options for us when we had to make decisions. We never felt like he was steering us in a particular direction or pressuring us into making a decision we were not comfortable with.

Paul helped us buy our dream home and we couldn't be happier! This was going to be our second home as a couple but first as a family of 4. Having two young children we had very specific needs in our (hopefully) forever home. Paul's expertise helped us make valuable decisions on neighborhood, size, age of home, etc. He highlighted some issues we would have never thought of and could possibly regret and was honest and helpful throughout the whole process.
It was especially helpful that his awesome track record helped with some offers we made. Just knowing they were dealing with a realtor
