Paula Barrett Ruiz

Educate yourself on areas, amenities, floorplan, clubs and mobility to health facilities.

Ask your Realtor lots of questions, ask for them to put in writing and make sure that your Realtor goes over all the contracts, what if scenarios and what are the next steps after you reach each milestone of the transation. Make a budget on any pre-sale repairs that you may need to achieve prior to going on the market. Each HOME has a story, Let's Sell Yours!

All of my clients are wonderful, everyone has their mind-set and experience. I stop and listen and make sure I hear and absorb what they are sharing with me and implement their needs to success!

All the Listing and Sales sides are successful when the close escrow. Each transation is complex and different than the other. I'm happy with all my client's that chose me. Each transaction is a learning experience and experiencing that owner or buyer's life story is wonderful to experience.

My late husband's Aunt asked me to go to Real Estate School with her son. I was inbetween and said yes, I was just 19 and passed. Sonia was a pivital part in the start of my career since 1986. Her son and I both became Brokers and we are still in contact.

I enjoy starting business's from scratch. My speciality. Each listing and buyer I get to treat as a new business and make it a success with all my craft in efficiency and contracts. I list to the needs and match buyers with sellers and vise versa.
