Another Happy Menifee, CA home owner writes,
"I contacted Paul Wilkinson on a random phone call from a real estate sign in the yard of a home for sale. That call ended up being the turning point to finding my dream home. I had been searching for a couple of months and was completely frustrated with the process. Paul's refreshing personality helped revitalize my enthusiasm for looking at homes. His professionalism and knowledge of the market was so amazing. He knew what I was looking for in a home, and never once asked me to lower my standards or downsize my wishes in order to make a sale. He will work tirelessly to find what you want for the right price. I highly recommend Paul Wilkinson for all of your real estate needs. Thanks Paul.... I love my new home!"

REALTORS® say the Darndest Things? But sometimes it's the things written in the agent remarks section of the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) . Things that every REALTOR® working hard to find a home for their buyer clients first read before laughing at it and tossing it in the shredder.
Here are ACTUAL examples of what may be written about your home in the MLS. These comments may discourage other REALTORS® from scheduling an appointment for their buyers.
1. SUBJECT TO INTERIOR INSPECTION; MUST SUBMIT OFFER FIRST; DO NOT GO ON PROPERTY; DRIVE BY ONLY; DO NOT DISTURB OCCUPANTS FOR ANY REASON!!!! DO NOT SOLICIT OWNER OR OCCUPANTS!!! SEVERE WATER DAMAGE ON ROOF FROM RECENT STORMS; WATER DAMAGE ON 1ST FLOOR FROM FAULTY PLUMBING; POSSIBLE MOLD ISSUE FROM WATER DAMAGE; UPSTAIRS BATHROOM WATER DAMAGE EVIDENT IN GARAGE CEILING; POSSIBLE FOUNDATION WATER DAMAGE, PONDING ON BACK OF THE HOUSE. HOME OWNER IS A LICENSED REAL ESTATE AGENT IN CALIFORNIA.
2. Do Not Disturb Occupants!!! Do Not Walk Anywhere Near this Property! SUBMIT OFFER SUBJECT TO INSPECTION via email/Mongo Fax only to XXXXXXX.COM. Do not call for offer status, if accepted, you will be notified. No status calls returned. Cash offer preferred. Absolutely NO offers less than $270,000 will even be considered!!!
3. Agents. No Key safe at property. Home is Occupied by owner. Sorry for the inconvenience however home owner has no phone and cannot be contacted. Also Mrs. Homeowner does not speak English. Thank you and good luck.
If you are selling your home, demand to see what your REALTOR® is saying (or not saying) about your home.
AND...If this is what you've asked your REALTOR® to put in the MLS, I guess you could get lucky and sell to some desperate home buyer willing to buy it withou ever stepping foot inside your home, BUT... if you are wondering why it hasn't sold.....well....all I can say is Good Luck and thanks for the laugh!
"What doesn't kill you will just make you Stronger!" That's what my grandfather taught me. He used to
heckle anyone, anything, anywhere and anytime.....maybe that is why I am now a heckler. I'll give you a few examples:
1. I'm at the movies, with my wife, during the opening week of one of the Lord of the Rings movies and at the part where the hobbit creature is sitting atop of a tree, as it's racing down to save all the other trees in the forest......the theater is quiet, the music dramatic, and I yell ..."RUN FOREST, RUN!". Imagine hysterical laughter for the next 10 minutes as trees are running around everywhere trying to save their world.
2. I'm at a minor league baseball game. The home team is down by two runs in the 7th inning and up to bat in a tough game. The visitors put in a relief pitcher to start the inning and I start yelling...."Pitchers Got a Rubber Arm!" or "We Want a Pitcher not a Belly Itcher!!"....childish, yes or course, but after four relief pitchers, bases loaded in the 7th, 8th, and 9th innings, AND THREE runs later, the home team wins. Was it me? Or just good baseball?
And Lastly....
3. I'm in my office going through the MLS reading the showing instructions: "Can only be shown on Saturdays from 1 - 3 pm", "Tenant requires 1 week notice (or more) to show, because they are uncooperative.", "Owner having personal difficulty with sale of home, drive by only", "Out of Area Agents must call for access. (FROM AN OUT OF AREA AGENT WHO IS NOT USING A LOCAL LOCK BOX).", and my favorite, "Don't call me for any reason I will not take your call."
If these are your showing instructions, I don't mean to be insensitive but, I WILL PROBABLY HECKLE YOU! It might be in the privacy of my office, over the phone, or maybe even in person. I don't intend for it to be mean, but C'MON! If just getting in to show your listing is this big of a deal, it's just a guess, (and I REALLY hope I'm wrong) but it seems like YOU are probably going to be a PAIN IN THE ASS TO WORK WITH for the next 30-45 days, but hey, what doesn't KILL me will just make me stronger! Right?
Thanks Grandpa, miss you!

Dear Mr & Mrs Homeowner,
How's Your Loan Modification Going? I keep hearing more and more that those that have been working with lenders seem to share the same stories. Here are a few:
1. "The bank has been reviewing my file for 6 months (or longer), but they say as long as I stay current on my mortgage payments they are willing to work with me." - It seems that as long as your current on your loan, why would they feel there was any need to work with you? I am not advocating that a borrower intentionally stop making their payments if they are capable of doing so, but it just seems more and more borrowers are left in limbo "waiting for a loan mod", while they continue to make their payments on time. Maybe it's just me, but 6 months (or more) seems like a long time to get an answer...don't you?
2. "The bank just denied my request for loan modification BECAUSE.....
...BUT, they said they I could try again!" - Why? What will change?
3. "The bank keeps asking me for more paperwork, statements and information, which I send them right away, but I never hear anything else, and they won't return my phone calls." - happens a lot!
HAVE ANY OF THESE SITUATIONS HAPPENED TO YOU? Over and Over I hear the frustrations of struggling homeowners who haven't quite given up as they continue to try working with the lenders with no success. If you are behind on your payments, please don't wait until it's too late and the foreclosure notice of auction is posted on your front door.
Short Sale is another option! What is a Short Sale? A Short Sale is a sale of real estate in which the lender agrees to take less than the amount owed on the debt, in return for the sale of the property to a third party, usually at no cost to the borrower and in most situations, the lenders will remove any further mortgage debt to the homeowner.
If you live in the Menifee, Murrieta and Temecula, California and surrounding areas, and you would like more information regarding Short Sales or to see if you may qualify, CALL ME TODAY for a free consultation.
Real estate brokers and their agents cannot give legal or tax advice, please consult with a real estate attorney and your tax consultant for legal and tax advice.

" I can't imagine selling our Canyon Lake home and purchasing our Sun City home without the vigilant professional, guiding light that is Paul Wilkinson. His tireless efforts, experience, and determination to sell our property at our target price, regardless of the difficult market, was realized in less than 60 days. While negotiating the purchase of our new home, he was there protecting our purchase, exercising our rights, even though the seller's agent was never available and could careless. Paul's knowledge, integrity, and personable nature makes him not only the best choice as a real estate agent, but also a freind you want to keep."
Bob & Jude Golden, Sun City
"We were frustrated, disappointed and ready to give up selling our home. Then Paul left one of his information packets on our front door. After meeting with him and learning of his aggressive and innovative marketing strategies, we decided to sign with Paul. Less than a month later, we'd had numerous showings and three offers. Paul guided us through the maze of counter-offers, disclosure statements and the final escrow papers when we sold our home. Paul lived up to all he promised during our initial meeting, being just a phone call away whenever we had any questions. Paul's knowledge of his profession, his connections within the community and his professional attitude make him an excellent choice when buying or selling a home. His personal interrealtionships make you feel you not only choose a REALTOR but a friend."
The Anderson's, Ray & Pat
"I highly recommend Paul Wilkinson for all your real estate needs. He was our seller agent and helped us all through the process -- from beginning to end -- and, he followed up several weeks after the sale of our house too, just to see how we were doing. He explains every step of the transaction in an easy-to-understand way; he works tirelessly for his clients; he really does put the customer first and hold his fudiciary duty to the client as his top priority. Call him and he will take care of you and your real estate needs!"
Sincerely,
Peter & Angie Abilla
"Paul Wilkinson helped us find and purchase a home. He spent many hours helping us find the right home at the right price. This often involved many nights and weekends working to ensure that we would be happy with our purchase. Additionally, with our purchase, a problem arose during escrow and Paul worked tirelessly to help resolve this issue and in the end it was resolved and the purchase went through."
Frank Lombano
"If you're looking for a Realtor who will make you his top priority than Paul Wilkinson is the man for you. In a very short time he sold my home & found me a new one. Paul is a hard worker & a very honest person. Put him at the top of your Realtor list & you won't be sorry. I did and he worked hard for me."
A client in Sun City, Shirley Fusacchia
"As an agent Paul set the standards in terms of what a true agent should be. He was asked to help with the sale of my mother-in-laws property, although it was a bit of a challenge, in several ways, Paul dealt with ALL of those situations. He showed tremendous patience and was very calm and re-assuring thru it all. He spent many hours away from home on the weekends and evenings, as the property was located a good distance from where he lives and works. He explained every detail of the transaction and made everything easy to understand. He was in constant communication during the whole process and showed a genuine concern for everyone involved. I don't think that another agent can be found that combines all of their work with patience, communication and a true heart felt concern for their clients."
Paul, Thanks again a 100 times over, Charles and Jennell Gibbs, Temecula
