"Ben and his team are truly one of a kind and went above and beyond our expectations throughout the whole process of selling our home. From thoughtful planning while prepping the home, to staging and being very strategic when our home went live. His knowledge, insight and experience resulted in us selling our home for far more than what we expected. There are many more things I can list that Ben helped us out with while we got the property ready and why Ben and his team are awesome but don't want this to be one of those long drawn out reviews. In short, if you're reading this review because you're looking for a realtor, give him a call. You'll be glad you did" - Carlos E.

"THE DREAM TEAM!
Ben and his team hit it out of the ballpark with our sale! They managed ALL the prep work (paint, landscaping, repairs, staging), communication was easy and timely, and our house went into contract in 5 DAYS, which sold for top dollar! They made the process really easy, provided valuable guidance along the way and we truly enjoyed our experience working with The Paras Team (2nd time now) and would recommend them to anyone looking for an A+ realtor team.

"We had the absolute pleasure of working with Ben Paras of the Paras Team as first-time home buyers, and we truly could not have asked for a better experience. From the very beginning, Ben was incredibly easy to connect with and made us feel completely at ease. His depth of knowledge and expertise was evident right away, but what really stood out was how approachable and patient he was throughout the entire process. As newcomers to the home-buying world, we had countless questions—but Ben never once made us feel ignorant or overwhelmed. He took the time to walk us through everything, answering every single question with care and clarity. Not once did we feel pushed or pressured in any direction; Ben truly listened and allowed us to find our way, all while offering guidance when we needed it most../i>" - Adam & Gabriella G.

"It’s been about a month since my family purchased a home with The Paras Team and reflecting on our journey, we have nothing but the highest compliments for the exceptional care, professionalism and knowledge provided by Ben, Renee, Mauricia, and the rest of The Paras Team, and certainly Aileen with Wells Fargo—connected through The Paras Team. Every step of the way, my family felt looked after with genuine care and never any pressure, and we also received efficient, cost effective, and friendly recommendations for financing, inspections, and more. From the very beginning, Team Lead Ben Paras was communicative, receptive, and engaged. He gave us the freedom and support to search while working together to define our ideal home. When we finally set our eyes on a place, Ben walked us through how best to approach our offer. And even when we hit a snag outside our control along the way, Ben worked closely with his financing partner at Wells Fargo to help us close on time. Even now, post-buying, Ben remains available if we need him (and we’ve certainly called and he answered kindly). The home buying process can be stressful but with Ben’s guidance, our overall experience was fun, educational, and rewarding. Who you work with truly matters, as Ben would say, and my family and I couldn’t have asked for a better dream team to complete our first home purchase with." - Calvin C.
