We could not have asked for a better partner than Paddy during our home buying journey. He and his team were incredible, and we enthusiastically recommend them to anyone looking for a home here. Paddy has exceptional knowledge of the Lafayette, Orinda, and Moraga town and the nuances of each neighborhood therein. This helped guide us towards specific parts of each town and quickly understand which houses on the market werent suited for our criteria. Given his depth of knowledge and experience buying/selling homes in our area, Paddy was also able to give us key insights and perspectives when it came to understanding listing prices and appropriate offers for homes. This was extremely valuable given how quickly homes sell in this market, as it helped us avoid rushing into the offer process without the right price awareness. In addition, Paddys relationship with Compass Real Estate allowed us to tour or identify homes before they came on the market. This was a distinct advantage for us in this competitive real estate market and played a crucial part in securing our new home. On the communication side, Paddy is extremely responsive and is quick to reach out as things change, whether thats a new home coming to market or a detail to be worked out as part of closing. We found the online portal to be very user friendly and allowed us to quickly collaborate with Paddy on which homes we wanted to tour or discuss. Paddy patiently and expertly guided us through the buying process of our home at the end, where we exchanged hundreds of questions, texts, and emails. His experience lent itself to quickly resolving these questions and also aided us in securing extra value that we wouldnt have known to explore. We found the open home touring process to be very easy and smooth. Paddy always had time for us when we had one home we wanted to see or a handful to see. We would discuss a list of homes with Paddy and he would do the necessary coordination to ensure we had access to the homes outside of a general open house. This made for a very expedient home touring process, where as a group we could walk through the homes, talk through potential issues, and discuss future improvements. Paddys background in construction and home building was invaluable with the home touring process. He helped us understand which issues with the houses were critical and which were actually more minor in nature. We could talk through potential enhancements and improvements, understanding what was feasible and what was not, which helped us narrow our home search. Paddy truly had our best interests at heart. He never pressured us into making an offer, and he was equally dedicated to ensuring we didn't settle on a home that wasn't the right fit. Paddy truly wants to help you find the right home. He takes the time to understand what you're looking for and accordingly makes recommendations on neighborhoods and homes. We looked at many different homes and Paddy was extremely patient and supportive with the entire process. We will be reaching out to Paddy again if we find ourselves moving again (we found a perfect home, so I dont think thatll be any time soon). Again, we highly recommend Paddy and team if youre looking to move into the area.
We interviewed three realtors before choosing Paddy Kehoe to sell our home. It was an easy decision aEUR" he stood out immediately because he genuinely understood what made our house special and we were sure he would articulate that to buyers. From the start, Paddy was exceptionally organized. We had a tight timeline to prepare before leaving on a long-planned international trip, and he made sure all details aEUR" inspections, repairs, staging, and photography aEUR" were handled before we left. The stager and photographer he brought in did a beautiful job showcasing our home. Our open house fell on our first weekend abroad, and communicating with Paddy from halfway around the world was seamless. We received multiple offers, and Paddy's skill in managing that process resulted in a final sale price well above asking. Throughout everything, Paddy and his assistant Michelle were responsive, proactive, and genuinely a pleasure to work with. They made selling our home as smooth and stress-free as it could possibly be. We highly recommend Paddy without hesitation.
My husband and I met Paddy just once, found our home that same day, put in an offer the next, and moved into our "forever" home within a month. Needless to say, Paddy is incredibly efficient and truly knows how to seal the deal. Here are the highlights of our experience working with him: 1. Excellent Communication: From my very first inquiry, Paddy was prompt and responsive. We started with a phone call to review our needs, and he quickly followed up with listings that fit our criteria. By the time we met in person, he already had a clear, deep understanding of exactly what we wanted in a home. 2. Area & Structural Knowledge: Paddy isnt a "how does this home make you feel?" kind of realtor. He understands how houses are built and knows the pros and cons of specific neighborhoods. Even if a property doesn't check every single box, he helps you visualize how to modify the space to make it perfect for your future. 3. Honesty: When my husband showed interest in one particular house, Paddy immediately pointed out its flaws and flat-out told us he wouldn't sell it to us because it would become a headache. He never tried to rush a sale; his priority was ensuring we bought a high-quality home we would truly love. 4. Resourceful: Even though we found our home on day one, Paddy remained actively involved throughout the entire closing process. He helped coordinate repairs before our move-in date and connected us with two of his recommended service providers, both of whom have been phenomenal. 5. He Knows How to Win: At the end of the day, if Paddy is on your side, you WILL win. We were up against another buyer for our home, but Paddy guided us to secure the winning bid while staying comfortably within our budget. In fact, we bought the home under asking. I remember asking him, "Do you think we have a chance of getting the home?" His response: "Yes, because I'm your agent." He was right. Hes simply the BEST!
If you are looking for a real estate agent who will go above and beyond to deliver exceptional results, hire Paddy - full stop. Paddy will fight for you as if it were his own home on the line and he is, without question, the most knowledgeable, dedicated, and hard-working real estate professional we've ever worked with. Paddy knows the market inside and out and he truly cares about his clients and their outcomes. He acted as a trusted advisor throughout the entire process and brought a clear, strategic vision on how to prepare and position our home for sale. His deep expertise and understanding of the local market gave us a strong competitive advantage and we are so pleased with the results of the sale. What truly sets Paddy apart is his integrity and advocacy. He is direct, honest, and unwavering when it comes to protecting his clients. We always felt that he had our backs and was working tirelessly to achieve the best result for our family. If you are looking for an agent who combines deep market knowledge with authenticity, confidence, and an unwavering commitment to his clients, Paddy is the clear choice. We are incredibly grateful for his guidance and partnership and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone buying or selling a home. Thank you Paddy!!
My husband and I feel very lucky to have met Paddy and to have his help in navigating all things real estate. After patiently working with us for over a year, Paddy helped us purchase a new home in Lafayette which we are so excited about. He quickly earned our complete trust - he is very honest with his feedback and it was clear he was not just trying to get us into just any house but one that we'd be truly happy in. There were many properties we were interested in where Paddy would respectfully point out considerations - i.e. might not be best location for kids, might have issues with steep hill in backyard, might be straying away from criteria etc. - and looking back i'm so glad he kept us focused on what we were hoping for. I also love that Paddy is extremely familiar with building and remodeling - it was great to discuss ideas and potential for each of the homes we saw. I think back to a time he helped us crunch numbers on the cost to remodel a property we were considering making an offer on - that was so much work for a house we didn't even get but he was so generous with his time. Now after closing, Paddy is still lending his expertise and contacts to help us with our home and I truly can't thank him enough.
We turned to Paddy Kehoe and his Team when we needed to sell our Lafayette home of 45+ years. They helped us every step of the way. Paddy and his wonderful assistant Alyson were always available with advice and answers - from setting an asking price to deciding on the many necessary updates to understanding the many unfamiliar documents. We worked with his stager/decorator and contractors to modernize our home while retaining its unique character. When it came time to respond to offers, Paddy worked his magic based on years of experience. He negotiated a sale price over-asking in a housing market that was beginning to soften. Thank You Paddy Kehoe Team!
Highly recommend Paddy Kehoe and Team at Compass! We used them to purchase our first home and more recently for our forever home. This time the sellers were a bit more challenging but Brittany took the time to manage expectations and was in constant communication between their agent and our lender. She is beyond responsive, even after we moved in to ensure that the transition went smoothly. We are so appreciative of her professionalism and attention to our asks! We also sold our house that we purchased 5 years ago with Paddy. Since then we used his thoughtful expertise to make certain improvements to the home over the years that added tremendous value. We had some unique circumstances when selling that Paddy was able to sort out timely. His staging team also did a phenomenal job and quickly too. Compass has a concierge service to front the costs for presale improvements with no interest or fees so it's hassle free. It just gets deducted from proceeds of the home afterwards. There was a very clear timeline of all the events from improvements, cleaning, photography, marketing etc. Communication was clear and would go through them again in a heartbeat. Most importantly, they are trustworthy and really in touch with their clients' needs.
Thanks to Paddy Kehoe and his amazing team, we bought a fantastic home in a highly competitive market and sold the home we were moving out of for top dollar. Eric Larson helped us to find the perfect home in Lafayette. In a competitive and fast-paced market, Eric was always friendly, patient, very thorough and never pushy. He is knowledgeable about the Lamorinda area, matching our needs to the right neighborhoods and homes to view. After seeing a home, Eric always took the time to engage in a conversation about the property to understand our thoughts and share his own ideas and knowledge, and helped us carefully consider each home we viewed based on our needs and goals. As homes came on market, Eric always took into consideration what we did or did not want in previous homes, so our time was never wasted. He is very responsive, and made sure when he was out of town or not readily available, that we had a channel of communication set up with his team who we could go to. There was zero pressure to bid on a home or push back on any of our decisions to not make a bid. However, if he had some knowledge of a home going way over our budget, he made us aware so we could move on. Even though Eric was the primary agent on the Paddy Kehoe team that we worked with as Buyers, the extended team were all great contributors to help us secure our new home. Paddy introduced us to an amazing Mortgage Broker, a true master in communication and follow-up, who worked with us early on to make sure we could move fast when we had an offer accepted. Eric and our mortgage broker were a great team, making sure any of our offers were thorough and that our loan approval was seamless. In this market, Buyers need someone fast but thorough to find a new home and put in a successful offer, and Eric definitely meets those needs.
We are so grateful for Paddy Kehoe and his Compass Realty team for the amazing work they did in selling our home in Pleasant Hill. They took great care of all the paperwork and fine details that are necessary to get the house ready to list. Paddy recommended that we list our house at the low end of the market value, saying we would get much more interest with the lower price, which could lead to multiple bids. He then arranged to have one week after listing for showings of the house and told those signing up for showings that they needed to get their bids in at the end of that week. He was able to get over 70 people to sign up for showings in that one week. He said that having lots of people looking at the house would let them realize that there was a lot of interest and if they were really interested, they needed to get a strong bid in at the end of that week. As he predicted, we received eight bids at the end of the week, all over the asking price. The highest bid was $230,000 over the asking price with the only contingency that the appraisal come in at or about the bid price. Paddy explained all the bids to us and recommended that we take the highest bid, which we did. We were just blown away with the response and to see that everything turned out just as Paddy explained that it would. The appraisal came in at the highest bid price and everything went as planned, with the closing happening just 25 days after accepting the bid. Paddy and his team handled all the closing paperwork and details, making is so easy for us to just sit back and let them do everything. We cannot say enough good things about Paddy and his team. They are truly amazing and so easy and friendly to work with. If you are looking for an agent to handle your sale, we highly recommend using Paddy and his team at Compass Realty.
Initially just looking for advice about the market and the possibility of selling our home, we luckily stumbled upon Paddy and his team. Right from the first meeting, we were impressed by Paddy's professionalism, but more importantly his honesty throughout the selling and buying process! Paddy is one of those genuine people who shows that he really cares about his clients and treated us like family. We highly recommend Paddy and his team to anyone looking for a real estate agent to guide them through this often complicated and overwhelming process.
Paddy Kehoe is a wonderful guy and an unbelievable realtor. He is a positive thinker and an honest man. He is the type of person you want in your life whether you are selling a house or not. Paddy makes the task of buying or selling your house an absolute pleasure. ?? Tim Juengst
Your Review: Working with Brittany Hogan on the Paddy Kehoe team made buying our first home the most seamless and exciting process! We were both pretty intimidated to start looking for a home as we didn't know much about the home buying process but Brittany made us feel so comfortable and as if no question was an unwelcome one. She was extremely responsive, answered all our calls whenever we had a question (and there was a lot) and made us feel like we were her number one priority with getting our dream home! This year has been stressful for everyone but after cancelling our dream wedding and honeymoon, getting this house was the most amazing turning point that brightened our year. We wouldn't have been able to do this process without Brittany and I would just recommend her to anyone that is looking for their dream house. Her passion and work ethic truly shows and I believe it to be the reason we got our house over the 4 other offers (a few that were higher bidding offers than ours). Thank you Brittany and the Paddy Kehoe team for everything we couldn't be happier!!
I cannot say enough positive things about Brittany and the Paddy Kehoe Team. As a first time homebuyer, the process can be both scary and overwhelming especially when buying during a pandemic. That being said, Brittany and her team were there for me every step of the way and made me feel like I was in good hands. Brittany was extremely patient and knowledgeable - from answering all of my questions, to seeing multiple (and I mean MULTIPLE) properties, until finding my dream home. As someone who was very new to the homebuying process, this was extremely appreciated. I especially enjoyed when Brittany would share her own visions on a home, which would help me see all that a home could be and appreciate it for its full potential! From start to finish, Brittany was there for me and always seemed to be one step ahead. She was extremely proactive throughout the process which helped everything to move along smoothly, especially while in Escrow and closing! Thank you Brittany for helping me find my dream home and for all of your help along the way :)
Working with Brittany and Paddy was a great experience. My wife and I started looking for homes shortly after the pandemic started. As first time homebuyers, we were a bit nervous about the process, and we also had to deal with the added complexities of visiting homes with a lot of restrictions still in place. We were also new to Lafayette, so we really needed help figuring out which neighborhoods to focus on, and the pros/cons of different areas. Brittany helped us navigate all of this and more. We visited several properties over a month or so and once we found one we liked she helped us structure the offer, schedule inspections, and negotiate with the sellers, and recommended contractors to help us make some improvements in our new home. Paddy and Brittany are great to work with, very professional, and driven. I highly recommend working with them. They really care about their customers, and want to ensure you are happy. You can tell they love their work, and they want to establish long term relationships with their clients. I would work with them again in a heartbeat!
I can't say enough good things about our experience buying our first home with the Paddy Kehoe team. Brittany Hogan was an absolute dream of an agent. She was ultra available to us for showings and answered our endless questions with patience, competence, and honesty. It sounds hokey, but Brittany really treated us like family. We ended up finding the perfect place for us in downtown Lafayette and were even able to close early as we hoped. We love our new home and the whole experience was surprisingly simple and stress free, which I credit to Brittany's dedication and commitment. I will definitely use Paddy and Brittany again when we're ready for the next move and I can't recommend them highly enough.
Paddy and Brittany are a Dream Team! We recently moved from Los Angeles and wanted to find a house in Orinda because of the great school district for our young kids. We were not used to the ultra competitive market, but they worked with us every step of the way. As a buyer we worked closely with Brittany. She made it her priority to find houses that met our needs and answer all of my questions (and I had a lot!). She was very informed on the local market, very detailed in helping us understand disclosures and contingencies, and guided us in crafting strong offers. Once in our new home, Paddy and Brittany came by to check -in and even offered to host a welcome BBQ to get to know our new neighbors. They have been back to walk through the home with us and help us prioritize improvements we plan to make, even giving us lists of contractors to consider. They truly go above and beyond for their clients. I would highly recommend Paddy and Brittany for anyone looking to buy or sell. They are knowledgeable, professional and kind!
We were referred to Brittany and Paddy by our trusted realtor in San Francisco, and are so happy we chose to work with them! They are an amazing team, super responsive, very knowledgeable about the Lamorinda area, true partners in search. We appreciated how much time they spent thinking through the houses we looked at with us, talking through positives and negatives to make sure we could find the right place for us. They also provided crucial advice on he purchase itself, resulting in a winner offer that was *not* the highest offer! We are now happy owners of a fantastic property in Orinda - and a huge thank you goes to Paddy and Brittany! Highly highly recommend.
We worked with Paddy and Brittany to buy our house in Orinda, an area that is new to us. They are very knowledgeable about the area, helped us zero in on what type of property we were looking for, helped us navigate the purchase every step of the way, and have continued helping us even after our offer was accepted! We really appreciated the attention and care they showed during the process. We ended up buying a beautiful property in a few short months, even though this part of the Bay Area is extremely competitive right now. Can't recommend Paddy & Brittany enough!
Paddy Kehoe recently listed a property in Lafayette on behalf of an investment group. All involved parties were extremely impressed with Paddy's skill and professionalism. The project presented some unforeseen challenges that Paddy negotiated with ease and patience. We relied upon Paddy's keen local knowledge of the market and he truly went above and beyond to ensure the successful sale of the property. You will be hard-pressed to find a more diligent and reliable agent. Paddy really is a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend his services.
Paddy is exceptional. He has a detailed knowledge of everything going on in the local market and was able to give us a clear understanding of what is required to achieve the best results. He developed a specific vision and strategy for our sale process that was tailored to our objectives. He brought in skilled professionals to support the sales process and achieved the desired quick turnaround. Paddy is professional and personable and it was a delight to work with him. Things worked out exactly the way he predicted, lightening the load in a naturally stressful process."
Whether you're moving across town or across the country, selling or buying, Paddy Kehoe is the realtor that you want to represent you. We contracted with him to sell our home in Lafayette in the midst of a pandemic yet his confidence, professionalism and knowledge made no obstacle insurmountable. His enthusiasm was the first thing that impressed us but that was only the beginning. His vision about the potential and possibilities for our home and future buyers instilled confidence that he knew the market, the process and what it would take to sell our home at the best possible price. Paddy's hard work exceeded our expectations. We left our home and moved cross country while Paddy took control and prepared it for sale. After being listed, our home sold in a week and the process went more smoothly than we ever could have imagined. His predictions about the offers we might get were right on the mark further proving his expertise in the Lamorinda market. Paddy is SO much more that a realtor. He builds relationships. It was evident from the beginning how much he enjoyed his career and how invested he was in the concerns of his clients. He got to know us as people not just as clients and we got to know him in the same way. His outlook on life and his advice helped us focus on what was important. In the end, it came down to building new friendships and even learning a few life lessons along the way. Thanks Paddy for everything!!!
We've had the pleasure of working with Paddy twice now. The first was in 2011 when he helped us buy a beautiful home in Walnut Creek, the second time was in 2019 when he helped us sell that same home when we were moving. Working with Paddy as a buyer we found him very hard-working and patient. We looked at dozens of homes over months (we were picky), and Paddy never pressured us during the process. We were able to take our time and choose a home we really loved. The decision to sell the home when we were moving away from the area was a hard one, and Paddy initially urged us to consider not selling, even though that would mean him losing out on the business opportunity. Once we decided that selling was the right decision, Paddy did quite a bit of research to price the home just right, urging us not to over-price the property at risk of turning away buyers. He also organized painting the property, fixing up the yard, and staging everything. The house really showed well when he had it ready. The first weekend of open houses we received 6 offers, 2 of them at $100K over asking. He walked us through the offers and the merits of each, we chose one, and 30 days later we closed without any issues. I'd rate Paddy 6 stars if I could and would work with him again in a heartbeat. He's honest, patient, and super knowledgable.
Back in August, 2019, my husband and I hired Paddy Kehoe to handle the sale of our home in Lafayette, California. We chose Paddy in part because of the great reviews, but it was meeting him in person that really convinced us. He's one of the nicest and most competent people you would hope to take care of something this important. It turned out that we were right: hiring Paddy was one of the best decisions we ever made. Our situation was a bit challenging: we needed Paddy to handle everything about the house sale while we were out of the country, since we had moved to Amsterdam (Netherlands). In fact, when we met Paddy, we had returned to California for a few days to pack up our house and ship a few things back to Amsterdam. From that point on, Paddy took care of everything. We didn't want to put the house on the market until the following spring, since our (adult) daughter was staying there, and of course, we had no idea that a major pandemic would turn the world upside down in the interim. By the time our daughter had moved out, the shelter-in-place had started, and we were worried about not being able to sell. But Paddy pulled it off, and he got us a great price. Throughout, Paddy was totally accessible, promptly returning emails and phone calls. He cared about our home sale as if it were his own. We can't recommend him highly enough. He's awesome!
Having previously been a real estate agent myself in Lamorinda, I can unhesitatingly provide five stars and then some to Paddy Kehoe as a uniquely brilliant real estate broker who will accomplish multiple offers and a selling price for your home beyond your expectations! Paddy recently worked on behalf of my mother to list, prepare, stage, and sell her midcentury home in Lafayette after she had lived there for forty years -- no small undertaking for either my 88 year-old mother or Paddy. But Paddy Kehoe, with his uniquely brilliant multi-step approach, his exceptional good looks, and the charm of his Irish heritage, collaborated with my mother over several months to bring her home to market that generated six offers in one week -- all of them at or over the asking price. Remember, you only need one good offer to sell your home. My mother received six! Again, I once worked the real estate market in Lamorinda and I was hard-pressed to meet an established broker like Paddy Kehoe who is as honest, forthright, insightful, and extraordinarily intelligent when it comes to representing sellers. And a huge plus for Paddy is that he comprehends "residential architecture" with an extensive vocabulary for building and construction, remodeling versus restoration, significance of styles and periods of home design, as well as the personal needs of his clients -- whether they be 88 years old or a young new-to-the-market family. I could go on and on and on taking about the amazing qualities of Paddy Kehoe. My mother and I are so very happy that Paddy was our real estate broker. Paddy is the man!
Claudia and the Paddy Kehoe Team were amazing. My wife and I were first time home buyers and Claudia did everything she could to make it a pleasant and rewarding experience. The one thing that stuck out for me was the amount of patience Claudia had with my wife and I. Countless questions, over 25 homes visited across a 6 month span, and Claudi remained consistently supportive throughout the entire process. When it take to securing the right home, Claudia always kept it real, let us know the risks involved with each offer and put us in the best possible position to secure our dream home. We couldn't be more grateful for her experience and help.
I'm writing this on behalf of my mom. She was very satisfied with Paddy's work on selling our home. He staged our house well, mailed out postcards around Lafayette and took great photos of our home. He can really see the potential of a house and knows what's happening on the market. She's very satisfied with her selling price!
Paddy sold our house in Orinda in 2015. Most agents we interviewed had a good gut sense of the market of course. Paddy presented a spreadsheet with a precise analysis of all houses sold and the trendlines over time. He hit the right combination for us of price and speed to sale accordingly. We found him not just responsive as the rating scale asks above, but forward thinking. He was a delight to work with and we would do so again in a heartbeat.
Paddy is a fanstastic agent. It took us a while to find our dream home in Moraga in this hot market. Paddy kept us laser focused and patient, sticking closely to our specs. In the end we couldnt have asked for a better home and agent experience. Paddy is extremely attentive and responsive, and has a clients dream mix of area knowledge, business savvy, hustle and personal skills. He knows all the area brokers very well and has a line into listings well before they hit market. After months of working together we feel like Paddy became a friend of the family. We trusted him to treat a situation like it was his money at stake, and his strategy and efforts through our offer acceptance proved that. Truely a gem of a broker.
Paddy was communicative, professional, & resourceful (in every way). He extends beyond the typical process, knowing a home sale can be trying, so his patience & hand holding was so appreciated, while executing our sale. His expertise, sophistication, & most importantly, his honesty regarding the market is priceless...
I closed on a home last month and Paddy was exceptional. He not only found the right listings for my needs but also was very knowledgeable about local trends in the market. Once we narrowed down the selection, Paddy was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the repairs the home needed. He gave me a clear and accurate picture as to what I needed to expect once I took ownership of the home, and his estimates and projections (although I may not have liked to hear it at the time) were very accurate to what I encountered. I am very impressed with Paddy and will use him for all my home sales and purchases needs going forward. Erik
Knows the market of Lamorinda by neighborhoods extremely well. He can tell you the strengths and weaknesses of each area in our commuity in great detail. Discussed various strategies in marketing our home. The listing and showing went very well as we had multiple offers within the week time period we allowed.Took care of all the details and made us very comfortable during the selling process. I highly recommend Paddy.
Paddy recently helped us purchase our dream home in Moraga and overall I would heavily recommend Paddy for his services and expertise. He is extremely transparent, will get back to you in minutes and has a great overall feel for the market. If you are serious about purchasing or selling a home and need a valued and trusted business partner, call Paddy.
Paddy is really, really good at what he does AND also very pleasant and easy to work with. As we prepared to downsize in Spring/Summer of 2014, he gave us very sound and specific advice about how to prepare our Lafayette house for sale. His insights as we determined a listing price were very helpful. He knows this market and knows what improvements are cost-effective for sellers to undertake. Paddy also represented us in the purchase of our new house. Buying and selling can both be stressful. Paddy helped to minimize the drama by keeping us continuously updated about each stage of the paperwork. I am confident that he helped us get us the best deals possible, both as buyers and sellers.
Paddy is a pleasure to work with. He is knowledgeable in all aspect of real estate and is extremely responsive to questions and requests, like no other agent I have seen. He can be a tenacious bulldog if that's what it takes to get the deal done. He also happens to be a pretty good dude. I will use Paddy again and refer him to my friends in the future.
All right, listen up all you home buyers and you too, you sellers out there . . . . I'm going to give you the soundest advice you're ever going to get. Are you ready? Wait for it. . . wait for it. . . Do yourself a favor and forge an alliance with Paddy. We were referred to Paddy by really great friends of ours. We were entirely new to the area and had very limited information on neighborhoods and the area in general. Now, we were first time home buyers, but I had experience professionally in real estate. I can honestly with my experience AND my inexperience, that dealing with Paddy was THE most seamless and professional relationship we could have ever asked for. Paddy was on point, always available (even to us crazy workaholics). He offered sound advice and always an alternative. I must say, listening to what he had to say really paid off. We found our perfect home, seamless transaction and closed in less than 30 days. . with an FHA loan... incredible in this market. How is our loan relevant you ask? Well Paddy offered us an alternative referral for our financing. He works with consummate professionals just like him. Another great reason to work with Paddy. I'll say it once, I'll keep saying it: Paddy Kehoe is absolutely a class act and an example of the gold standard. Simply aaaa-mazing.
Paddy Kehoe is a fabulous real estate agent. After a fairly lengthy search I found the home that I really wanted. The seller had multiple offers for essentially the same amount and Paddy worked diligently to assure them that I was the right buyer for their home. I would not own my current home if it were not for him! He is a pleasure to work with and brings genuine expertise to the deal.
Due to a low rental inventory during the week we were visiting the East Bay area, we weren't successful in finding any place to live before having to return to our home in Seattle. We were desperate & Paddy generously helped us locate a rental. He then set us up w/ an East Bay Open House website so we could continue our search for a permanent residence from a distance. Six months later when we located a potential condo on the website, he was equally helpful, clever & resourceful in obtaining the condo for us. He was most astute about construction and walked us through legalese & negotiations, responding to any of our questions & concerns immediately. He went out of his way to secure workers for us & he helped us move!!!! All this AND he's a great guy. JL
Paddy worked tirelessly to sell my home in Moraga. He really cared and did everything to make the process quick and effortless. He gives 120%.
We met Paddy at an open house and instantly had a connection with him. Paddy is just one of those people that you can have a conversation with and the time just flies by. Not only is he extremely passionate about what he does, he is a genuinely nice and honest guy and let me tell you, the guy works like a madman and he knows his stuff! We felt completely at ease and comfortable with Paddy and felt that he truly cared about helping find the perfect home for us. He has an unbelievable wealth of knowledge when it comes to real estate and construction, and prides himself on finding value; which he absolutely delivered when he found us our perfect home! One of the best parts about working with Paddy is that he is remarkably responsive and his follow up is impeccable. There arent enough words to describe how fantastic Paddy is and how pleased we are to have had him in our corner helping us find our home. We sing Paddys praises any chance we get and will undoubtedly be using him for any future transactions.
My husband and I are retired and wanted to downsize to another home in our area. Paddy went above and beyond our expectations in helping us find just the right home. He was diligent and honest during the entire process and went out of his way to take care of issues with the bank. He was always quidk to respondto our phone calls and he would even call to see how we were doing during the waiting process. I have already recommended him to friends who may be looking for a home for their son and we would not hesitate to call on him if we need a realtor again. He was always professional and made us feel confident in our decisions.
Paddy is a terrific agent and works very hard to find great properties and close the deal. All three of our transactions went smooth, and I will definitely work with Paddy on my future real-estate transactions.
Paddy helped me buy my first home. I perform medical research for a living and to me the devil's in the details. Before finding Paddy, I had another agent. There were annoying paperwork hang-ups, she showed me places opposite of what I wanted, and I felt not paid attention to. I was very fortunate to find Paddy. He listened carefully, understood and respected my requests, and took charge. As I learned, Paddy truly combines all the 5-star qualities above with honesty, extensive real estate knowledge expertise and professional experience, respect for his client, high energy, unusually strong real estate negotiating skills, and a "major" amount of initiative and motivation. His intelligent and supportive sense of humor (and Irish accent) didn't hurt either. It was a total pleasure working with him. I refer my friends and family only to the absolute highest quality professionals, or I don't make a recommendation to them. Without hesitation, Paddy is the realtor I send them to. I highly recommend him.
