"Paul is the ultimate buyer’s resource in Harbor Country. As a unique enclave, most listings are not found on the major real estate apps, but Paul has them all in his constantly updated database. That access was the only reason we were able to find our house. His site is also really great for its use of various filters that allow sorting, for how real people search for unique features. On a personal level, he is always ready to help take buyers out to look and knows all the sellers, attorneys, contractors, bankers and others that a new home buyer needs to have a smooth welcome to the area. He and his staff have been a real pleasure to work with. We are thrilled with our new home and have Paul to thank."   - Thanks again to you and Rocky! Cheers, Rob

"Paul was the consummate professional throughout our search for a home. Paul took the time to familiarize us with all the communities in the area. This was very important, as we purchased a home in a different area from where we began our search, but in an area that suited us much better. We are completely satisfied with his services and highly recommend him if buying a home in Harbor Country."   - Ron and Katherine Kostyo - Ann Arbor, MI

"Paul did a fantastic job as our buyer's agent.....very knowledgeable of this area of Michigan and always available 27/7.....Rocky was also great."   - John and Patricia Hollenbeck, Ann Arbor, MI

5 Stars

"Paul was great to work with. Whenever we would visit a property he would just let us walk around and wait to see if we had any questions. We must have visited a dozen or more properties and he was always "no pressure" and would let us do our own thing. We REALLY appreciated that approach and don't like it when realtors follow you around and constantly point out different things about a home. He knew the area very well and his process skills were very good as well. Highly recommend Paul."   - Jim and Karen Ramberg - Chicago, IL

5 Stars

"Paul was very knowledgeable about the area, very easy to communicate with, and went beyond what agents usually would do to make the sale. We had a very difficult seller, so the process was unexpectedly long, but Paul helped us stick through it to the end. We saw a lot of properties and he was great at pointing out the pros and cons and was very tuned into what we were looking for."   - Brian and Carolyn Langham

5 Stars

"Paul's website allows for custom searches of MLS info. and weekly report of sales/new listings. He patiently worked to show us the market and helped us sort through our needs and recommend listings that matched our criteria. Paul definitely represents the buyer's interests and went above/beyond to help us secure an agreement when we identified a property. He also advised us during the offer and inspection process to make sure we had all our questions answered and concerns addressed."   - Trulia User 90921596

"Paul and Rocky made buying our vacation home a great experience. They supported us so well before, during and after the transaction. We are pleased to think of them not only as our Realtors but also as the first friends we made in Harbor Country. Most memorable moment; Standing in front of what was to become our lake house, watching Paul struggle to maintain his professional distance from our decision about whether to jump on the magnificent opportunity he had brought us to. Typical of how Paul is both a real person and a real professional."   - Tom & Kim Irwin - Chicago, IL

5 Stars

"Paul and his wife Rocky are a formidable team. They bring A game talent to their clients. He had many homes to show us. When showing them to us he had a very high level of integrity in describing the pros and cons of each of the homes we were shown. He took time to understand the type of home we were looking to purchase. He was patient, kind and flexible with his hours to match our own. He found a house that met both my wife and my needs, desires, price range, and location. He had a group of professionals in his arsenal to help us through the process of search to close. We would highly recommend his services."   -  Steven Klein - Chicago, IL

5 Stars

"We were very happy with Paul Zubrys’ (and Rocky’s) services. They both responded almost instantaneously to any questions asked. A few days before our closing, there was a huge storm, and Paul voluntarily drove over to the home we were purchasing, to see if there was any visible damage(there wasn’t). As we were an hour and a half away, we couldn’t have done this, but Paul did it on his own, without us asking. This is just a small example of the kind of service you can expect from this experienced Broker."  -  Mark and Mary Partridge. Chicago, IL

5 Stars

"Paul is an honest, knowledgeable gentleman who is quick to respond and has excellent staff. Our first day with Paul was refreshingly unconventional. Even though we had anticipated to be happy with him based on referrals from friends who used Paul’s services when buying homes in Harbor Country, we were unaccustomed to his level of professionalism, knowledge, and candor. We have a Realtor for life!" - Ron Carrey - Chicago, IL

5 Stars

"I’ve bought and sold several homes in the past 10 years and, this is the first time that I’ve liked a broker enough to take the time to write a testimonial."  -  Jim Reed - Palm Springs, CA

5 Stars

"Above and beyond the call of duty. Paul’s personality and approach made the entire experience of buying a second home fun and easy. He goes above and beyond the call of duty by helping you integrate into the community. I’ve got the home I love and a new friend in the process."  -  Nancy Koenig - Chicago, IL

5 Stars

"With the help from Paul, my wife and I just purchased a home in Union Pier. Paul demonstrated knowledge, patience and honesty throughout the entire process. As if that were not enough, he makes himself available after the purchase is complete. I strongly recommend the services of Paul Zubrys."   -   Heriberto Vale - Chicago, IL

5 Stars

"Paul Zubrys is an outstanding real estate broker.  His website, TheDailyListings.com is the best site for Lake Michigan lakefront property - Nothing's else is even close. As a buyer's agent, Paul’s combined level of knowledge, expertise and integrity is refreshingly high in an industry which seems to have many agents that lack all three. He is the only buyer’s broker I would use in Michigan."   -  Co-Founder of GETCO, LLC - Chicago, IL

"Paul was the perfect agent for us. I’m sure he has been for many people. Our experience with Paul was not common,he went the extra mile for us until (we) were comfortable. His attention to detail was reassuring and constant.Sometimes in life you meet people who provide a service and sometimes those people turn out to be more important than first expected.We were lucky to come across a person such as Paul. MSpending money is always a risky venture. With Paul’s guidance we never felt at risk. I’d like to say we would do it again, but Paul found us the perfect house…one we plan on enjoying for many years. So if your looking for a NO drama agent look no further. Paul Zubrys did right by us."   -  David Cella - Chicago, IL

"My husband and I had always enjoyed the Harbor Country area and had looked at owning our own little piece of paradise on and off for several years. When we finally decided to purchase a home we chose Paul as our realtor based largely on his length of experience within the real estate industry. Paul was extremely informative and knowledgeable concerning the various cities, neighborhoods and beach locations within Harbor Country, which enabled us to purchase the home that best suited our needs."   -  CRK Designs

"Paul did an excellent job helping us find and purchase the perfect home in Union Pier. He has insights about the Southwest Michigan real estate market that we were unable to find with any other agent. He follows up very quickly on voice and e-mails and his Website is superior to any real estate site on the Internet. We would use Paul concerning any future purchases in Southwest Michigan."   -  Robert Losik - Chicago, IL.

"My wife and I very recently worked with Paul to find a getaway home for our growing family. Paul is very knowledgeable of the whole Harbor Country area and helped us quickly understand specific location pros and cons and property valuations. He was a quick email or phone call away throughout the buying process. This was the smoothest real estate transaction we’ve ever been a part of. We bought a wonderful property in Lakeside that we’re thrilled about. Paul was professional, responsive and an effective Buyer’s Agent through negotiations and close. He also exceeded expectations by assisting with local contacts and service providers. I’m certain we will stay in touch as we get settled into the community. I would recommend Paul to anyone looking to buy real estate in Southwest Michigan."   -   Damon Auer

"Paul recently represented us in purchasing a home. He has great in-depth knowledge of the local market and a solid understanding of all the properties he showed us. His approach to finding our family a home was informative and focused. Combine these factors with his efficient and effective handling every step of the process and we can easily say he made finding and purchasing a home a great experience."   -  Paul Degrandis - Chicago, IL

5 Stars

"Paul’s style of doing business can best be described as brutally honest. He will tell you what he really thinks, not what he thinks you want to hear. I’ve purchased, developed, and sold real estate all over the country. Paul is the only broker I would use in the midwest."   -  Tom D - Chicago, IL

"Paul represented us to purchase a home in Union Pier. We found him through his excellent web site. In my opinion, there is no better web site for buyers, looking in the Harbor Country area. His information is comprehensive, accurate and focused on buyers. Paul did an excellent job of listening to us and what we wanted before he met with us for our first and only tour of homes this was important to us because we didn’t want to spend a lot of time looking at homes. We saw 9 homes on a Saturday afternoon. 7 of the 9 homes were right in our price range and met all of the criteria that we had communicated to Paul. The other 2 homes were nice to see as a comparison. In the end, we loved 3 of the homes that Paul showed us and made an offer on our favorite. Within 10 days of meeting Paul for the first time, we signed a contract for our new home in Union Pier. Throughout the next 3 weeks, before closing, Paul was outstanding. He served as our representative at all stages of the pre-closing process. And, he called us periodically to remind us of important issues that we may have overlooked like bringing a certified check to closing. Paul’s knowledge of the Harbor Country area and his complete commitment to his clients make him an oustanding buyer’s representative. We highly recommend him. We’ve been in our Union Pier house now for almost 7 months and we have loved every weekend there, we’re Chicago residents. I’ve bought and sold several homes in the past 10 years and, this is the first time that I’ve liked a broker enough to take the time to write a testimonial."   -   Jim Reed and Steve Blake – Chicago, IL

Thank you very much for bringing our buyer to us. Don seems like a great guy who will really enjoy the home and property. We really appreciate your support and focus on our home. Getting that place sold so quickly will really help us in our transition out to California.  -   Jim Reed and Steve Blake – Chicago, IL

"After unpleasant experiences with more than a few real estate agents, we finally contacted Paul. I regret we didn’t contact him sooner. We were already been using his excellent website and newsletter for up to date information, but unfortunately, we always called the broker whose name was on the For Sale sign whenever we drove around Michigan, previewing property. We will never make that mistake again! Even though we’ve purchased and sold several properties in the past, Illinois, we never appreciated how beneficial it would be to have a real estate agent who was working on our behalf. Paul’s approach was unlike any we’ve ever encountered before. I wholeheartedly agree with the comment by TD. He is brutally honest, even when what he was conveying was difficult to hear. In the end, we are confident we made a great investment and it was a opportunity we would not have even been aware of had we not contacted Paul. I enthusiastically recommend Paul Zubrys to anyone in need of a Michigan real estate broker. Do not waste valuable time. Call Paul first."   -   Name witheld for privacy / security

"We really had a positive experience with you guys. I tried to warn Doug that we were ready, and I’m not sure he understood how ready we were. It was fast and furious, but, working together, we pulled it off. Thanks to all!!! Larry was great! All in all, very positive feedback. Best of luck to all of you. Many thanks, again and again, for helping us. We’ll keep in touch."   - Michael and Gail Weber - Chicago, IL

I care about my clients and I don't sleep well if a deal goes sideways. Thankfully, nearly 100% of the people I work for really appreciate the work I do for them.  If it were any different, I wouldn't do this for a living.
