Paul E. Stansen

Paul was hired by our company to refiance a loan for our hotel. Paul is very: 1.Smart, extreemely knowledable in his feild of work 2.Responsive, picks up the phone when called or retruns calls ASAP 3.Organised, very organised!! 4. Gets the job done with the least amount of stress to us. He ...did such a great job on our first hotel we hired him to refiance our 2nd hotel as well. Bottom line Paul gets the job done, pleasant to work with and is extreemely knowledable as a Loan broaker/Attorney!!!

Paul is a miracle worker. Referred from a friend, he guided us through the difficult, drawn-out process of rescinding a home purchase due to non-disclosures. Fortunately things were resolved in mediation, with Paul advising us throughout. Paul's expertise, persistence and wit was invaluable during ...the journey to the resolution of our predicament. Paul went above and beyond in representing us as a Realtor in both the sale of one property and the purchase of another, closing both of the deals smoothly.

My wife and I found 2 places of potential mold within in our rental property after being there nearly 5 years. We have a 2 year old and 8 month old, so I wrote a letter to the Property Manager asking to get out of the lease due to potential mold in 2 places. This was not the first time we found mold ...in this home, the first of which we had to move out for 2.5 months on our own dime. Having dealt with this Property Manager previously, I was inclined to use Professional help as I knew the communication with the Prop Mngr was poor and the responses would not be in my favor. I asked Paul to get involved and get me out of my contract. Most importantly, I did not want to be involved with the communication and dealing with this Property Manager. He took the reigns like a pit bull and started shooting off letters left and right. The Property Manager made this as difficult as possible but in the end Paul was able to not only get me out of my lease but created a settlement in which the owner owed me a half months rent back with full security deposit within 2 days of MIMO. Never once did I have to fear the big bad Property Manager who never even replied to my initial letter. Live and learn, always use a professional like this when they know what they are doing. Worth every penny and I'd do it again ten times over.

As real estate investors for 40 years in Ohio, Melissa and I thought we had experienced every challenge in buying and selling properties. We found that selling our vacation home in Santa Ynez had more issues than we could have imagined. Through Paul's leadership we were able to address every issue,... remain firm on our price and not lose the buyer over an extended period of time. We are convinced this never would have happened without Paul Stansen's counsel and for that we are most appreciative. Jack and Melissa Columbus, Ohio

Paul saved me from losing my house to foreclosure and actually got it sold for more than I owed, allowing me to pocket a much-needed 5-figures. I was in big trouble because I was locked into a listing agreement with a charismatic, yet incompetent, Realtor. I watched in horror as the foreclosure clock... ticked down and he did nothing but bumble around. I counted the days until I could get out of the agreement. I then immediately hired Paul with instructions to do whatever he could to save me from foreclosure, now mere weeks away. Now, after months of doing nothing, the other guy tried to confuse me with double-talk and then actually blocked our attempts to list the property! It’s situations like this that you want a Real Estate Attorney and not just a Realtor. Paul took care of that problem within a day. Without Paul, the delay tactic might have cost me my house. Not only does he get results, he explains to you exactly and very clearly what he’s doing and what the current status is. He is unbelievably organized and also has some very useful connections with lenders, which proved to be a godsend. Great guy, too. Having him on my side was a pleasure every single moment and his speed with dealing with the crooked Realtor saved my financial future. I give Paul my strongest possible endorsement.
