Paul is a treasure. He is endlessly patient, uncommonly kind, and remarkably generous with his time. We must have visited three dozen homes together, and he never tried to push us to do anything we weren't completely comfortable with. He is knowledgable about the Richmond area market, has lived here his entire life, and has a wonderful range of contacts in the industry. He made buying a home in a difficult market feel hopeful and enjoyable. His recommendations for other services--closing agents, lenders, and more--are always spot-on. He answers calls and messages and requests for information promptly, even at night or on the weekends. He's enthusiastic about his work, has a great sense of humor, and wants to know you as a person, not just as a client. Put simply, he is just a good person. Work with Paul! You won't regret it.
Providing a review of the sellers agent is a first for me but one that I thought was necessary. Paul represented the sellers for our recent purchase of a home in Midlothian. My wife found Paul to be very accessible and helpful. Several times we needed access to the home for designers and he made it happen. He walked us thru not only the home but pointed out unique features that we most likely, would have overlooked. During our final walk through, Paul showed us features we would have missed and once the home was sold, we would have been confused on where to locate them. Things such as the telecom closet, and certain light switches that were not very visible and how to access certain areas of the home. His buyer even provided a list of vendors and contact information for us! Paul, made the home purchase entirely collaborative and not adversarial which helped make the decision to purchase, as well as the process, very smooth and uneventful.
I have been a custom home builder for four decades. I have worked with many realtors over my years. Paul is by far the best. My wife and I asked him to list our home and he did a wonderful job. Paul is very knowledgeable about his business. He stayed in touch with us and kept us aware of everything throughout the process. We had several contracts that he helped us navigate. Paul listed and sold our home very quickly. My wife and I were very pleased to work with a great agent but more important Paul is a wonderful person. Thank you, Paul Randy and Diane Carrington
Paul is knowledgable and consistent in the real estate business. He made my home buying process easy and effortless. Paul made me feel like he's always open to go see homes on my schedule. I must say that I am very pleased with his services and I would recommend Paul to anyone who is looking for buying and selling real estates. I've gained not only a professional real estate guru, but a great friend.
Paul is a wonderful person and amazing agent to work with - both in buying and selling! We had a specific idea of the home we wanted in two areas, Paul was ready to go anytime we wanted to see a listing and worked with us to negotiate a great price on what we now call home. He was extremely flexible and communicative through the buying process and a very complicated selling process on our last place. Thank you for everything Paul - looking forward to working with you again!
Paul and I wanted to thank you for all your hard work, dedication and patience in our house selling and buying experience. We truly could not have had a better experience, or asked for a better Realtor. You made the process so positive, and we know we presented you with challenges! We can't express our appreciation enough, and will gladly refer you to any who ask your way! Many thanks! Stephanie and Paul
First, I must apologize for the belated correspondence, but as you have noticed, we have been very busy at 704 Westham Parkway. Secondly, we want to thank you for your hard work, patience, and understanding throughout a very long purchase process. We were so fortunate to have found such a professional person that was a pleasure to deal with. We are also very fortunate to have gained a neighbor and friend throughout the process. Thank you again, and please stop by anytime! Corey and Amber Irvin
Misha and I wanted to thank you again for providing such a great home buying experience. You made everything very easy and seamless. We felt like you had a quick and accurate understanding of what we were looking for in a property, and you led us right to them - many of them! Again, we're very pleased with the home on Glebe Road and appreciate your hospitality and professionalism. We felt like it was a pleasant weekend spent with a friend! Tom and Misha Martin

Thank you for all of your help throughout the buying process. We really appreciated your patience and guidance of us neophytes! We look forward to being neighbors and hope to see you soon! Kim, Geoff and Nora Hugo
My sales associate could not have been any better. He patiently explained each step I needed to take and advised me on my decisions. With limited mobility and living in a retirement community, Paul checked on the property regularly which I aprreciated. It was a real pleasure working with Paul. Mrs. Ashton Smith
Paul Kastelberg was most helpful and knowledgeable. He went out of his way to be helpful. Paul Achtemeier
