What a great fortune it was to stumble upon Lisa Pazol while driving the roads of Bellingham looking for my first home.  Through calling the phone number on a sign outside a property, I got in touch with Lisa.  That evening, we saw that home as well as two others in the area.  I immediately knew Lisa was the type of Realtor defined as “one of the good ones” in the first-time homebuyer books and articles I’d read over the recent years.

That night, Lisa sent me the following e-mail:

“Hi Adam! It was great to meet you this evening. It would be my pleasure to assist you in your home search and be an advocate for you throughout the home-buying process. 

If you would like, I can schedule time on Friday to show you several Bellingham properties. Let me know if this is convenient. We could meet at my Franklin office in the morning and head over to Bellingham together.”

…and the e-mail continued.

The next day, I received from Lisa a detailed, professional itinerary outlining the properties we’d be visiting.

After a brief meeting to discuss the logistics of the home-buying process, Lisa and I were off to look at homes.  Her ability to inquire, listen and get a feel for what I was really looking for in a home was amazing.  All the while, she was a pleasure to be around.

Throughout the following weeks, we looked and looked and looked at homes and in just under 2 weeks found one that was ideally suited to my needs, wants and budget.  In the process, Lisa reluctantly steered me (Lisa is painfully principled in not influencing her clients’ decisions J) away from a property I fell in love with that happened to be situated very close to high voltage power lines and in a flood zone.  I went back to the property during a rain storm about a week later to find the land flooded, dual sump-pumps working overtime.  I learned it’s easy for emotions to disrupt rational thought and it was much appreciated that one of us was not only not absorbed in them, but willing to speak up about it too. 

We communicated on the phone, through e-mail and text message; days, evenings and weekends.  Lisa’s response time was generally less than one minute.

After closing today, I am more than confident in strongly recommending Lisa Pazol to anyone looking to buy a home.  In work ethic, integrity and personality, Lisa is a rare find and was such a pleasure to work with.

Here are my two cents on my experience with you as a Realtor. I am also hoping that I found a friend during this process:

=======================

I met Lisa pazol by accident when I stop-by to see a townhouse in Upton, Massachusetts. She had a book for the people who visited the unit to sign. I just picked up her card and had no intention buying a house.

Two weeks later, I started thinking about buying a two family unit so I can live in one and my son can live on the second unit. I called Lisa and the search for house hunting started.

My goals of what I really wanted to buy kept shifting because I really did not know. Lisa was patient enough to take me along and keep my interest high. I end up buying a real good home but it took Lisa and me a few months to find the right one. There were times where I was just real tired wanted to buy a house just any house but Lisa discourage me because it was not a good deal for the money I had to pay. Lisa could have just simply encouraged me to buy anything just to get her commission without thinking about my interest but that is not Lisa. Sometimes I was very surprised that she was so persistent for keeping me from going for the sale because it was not the right property for me and she knew I would not be happy.

Thank you Lisa for all the effort and loyalty you show me during this process because without that I would not have the nice looking home I have today.

Thanks again,

Ben Heydary
