What our Seattle & Ballard Real Estate clients are saying...
“An excellent first time home buying experience!”
“As a first time home buyer, I appreciated the guidance and expertise of Paul Cantu. When I first met Paul, I was feeling discouraged about purchasing a home as I had been looking for a while and had begun to feel that I would not be able to find anything in my price range. He asked me many questions about what was most important to me in a home, as well as to the type of neighborhood that I wanted to live in. In less than a week, Paul found me a lovely home, within my price range, in the Green Lake neighborhood. When Paul submitted my offer, the agent and seller were already countering an offer from another buyer. Paul’s strong negotiating skills made sure that my offer was ultimately accepted. I was impressed by Paul's professionalism and contractual knowledge. I would recommend him to anyone looking to buy a house!”

"Paul sold my home for 96.76% of the asking price in just 5 days!"
I listed my West Seattle home with Paul Cantu of Cantu Group Real Estate in the winter of 2010. My home was previously listed with another agent from a “big name” brokerage for 94 days, during which time we only had 1 showing and no offers. Paul’s unique and aggressive marketing strategies worked. In just 5 days we had a great offer. The buyer’s inspection showed that the entire home needed to be resided due to faulty LP siding. The buyer’s agent came to us with a bid of $26,567 and an inspection response requesting I pick up the entire tab. Paul skillfully negotiated hard on my behalf and in the end, the cost to me was just $5,748.75. Paul obtained a great price for my home in a sluggish real estate market and turned a stressful situation into a successful closing. Paul and his team did an incredible job, I couldn’t be happier!

“Paul and his team helped me buy my first home”
“When I met Paul I instantly felt relieved with his down-to-earth approach and knowledgeable advice. He helped me feel “at home” with the stressful process of buying a home for the first time. Paul was great with scheduling times to tour places in which I was interested. I work an unusual swing-shift work schedule and Paul was always available to answer my questions, even when I called him after normal working hours. We looked at a number of places so I could get a feel of what I would ultimately want. Paul’s extensive knowledge of Seattle’s neighborhoods helped me find a home that I could afford and that I love. I would recommend Paul to anyone looking for an honest, straight shooting, real estate professional. Paul is a great guy and easy to get along with. I never felt any pressure and I always had a clear, precise answer to all my questions. Thanks to Paul Cantu, I am very satisfied with my first-time-home-buyer experience.”

“Paul’s team is really different…. both in their approach and their attitude!”
To Whom it May Concern: There are not enough words to thank the Paul Cantu Real Estate Team for all of the fast, professional and friendly service they provided me when I bought my 1st re-hab property and prepared it to sell. They went over and beyond the call of duty to list and market it quickly. It was barely on the market for three weeks when it as sold for 97.7% of my original asking price. That's incredible in today's slow market. Kudos to the entire Cantu Group, and especially to Paul Cantu, for all of his personalized service. As owner-broker, he is worth his weight in gold. I cannot tell you how many other agents have dropped me in the past because I did not buy from them after looking at several homes. He knows how to get the job done! I look forward to working with Paul and his team in the future.

Working with Paul Cantu was our pleasure. He took the stress out of buying our first home. He patiently and carefully guided us through the process of finding a home that we love.

It is obvious to me that Paul has integrity, honesty, and an unbelievably strong work ethic. I highly recommend Paul's services to all al of my friends. Thanks Paul!
