He is an incredible realtor and a great person! His knowledge in his field is more than any other realtor I have ever met. He explains things with such ease and makes you feel comfortable. He always kept our needs and wants in mind. I truly think we got such a great deal, during a period when negotiating was really not in the cards. They way he presented our offer was amazing. We are in our home that we love. Thank you, Lucy Trejo

We had a terrible experience with another realtor a year before we purchased our new home and Rusty was a breath of fresh air. The second time around, we were a lot more skeptical, had a MILLION more questions and truth be told, were very demanding and Rusty was incredibly patient, was very quick to return our calls and answer our questions and given we were using a VA loan and were very limited in this market, Rusty was very understanding and was able to find us a wonderful home that we love. What we really appreciated about Rusty is that he was professional but real and honest and it was almost like looking at houses with a friend or close family member. He never hesitated to ask the tough questions and we really felt like he had our best interest in mind. We would definitely recommend Rusty to anyone and would use him again ourselves if we wanted to purchase another property or had to relocated. Less

Working with Rusty was a fantastic experience. He's candid, honest, and extremely knowledgeable of the real estate market in the greater San Jose bay area. He did a great job helping me evaluate comparable listings and narrow in on what was most important to me. In addition, he's very observant of any new homes that become available, frequently showing me places that weren't even on the market yet. I ended up purchasing a new townhome and Rusty was invaluable in negotiating with the KB homes selling agents and their unorganized "upgrade" process. He was able to convince them to throw in many perks like no closing costs & completely upgraded appliances, among others. Overall, it was a truly enjoyable experience working with Rusty and I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell property in the future! Less

Working with Rusty made the property buying process much easier and understandable. He is extremely knowledgeable and experienced, helping us find a home that suited our needs. At no time did he pressure us or rush us into making hasty descisions. There were a few times when we thought we would not find the house that was meant for us, but after almost a year, it came to us. Being that it was a short sale, Rusty gave us the information and details we needed to make sound decisions and guided us through the tangled web of going through a short sale property. Less

Rusty was an absolute joy to work with. He made the process of finding and obtaining my dream home completely possible through his hard work and professionalism. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a real estate agent to work with.

Rusty was recommended to me by a friend when I started looking to buy a house. Rusty is very personable, knowledgeable, and knows how to get the job done. Furthermore, Rusty has made himself available to me on several occasions AFTER purchasing my house to discuss resale value and refinancing. I wholeheartedly recommend Rusty to anyone interested in buying a home.

I have worked with Rusty on a number of transactions including my first home in 2005. I was most impressed with his skills when helped me sell two properties under challenging economic conditions in 2009. He has a deep understanding of the housing market and a wealth of knowledge of the available loan programs. I highly recommend his services and will be using him again when my wife and I begin to look for another property to buy.

With crisp effeciency; Rusty Paap giuded us through the search, the offer, the loan process and the closing, in the purchase of our Town House in Morgan Hill, for the right price with a 3.4 %, 30 year fixed loan. Rusty went beyond the usuall Agent to Agent process and made our offers in person to the sellers. He made our offer August 2, 2010 and handed us the keys to our new home September 2, 2010. In a word, Rusty Paap is a professional. Ed & Pat Space Morgan Hill, CA

My wife and I were in the market for our first home and Rusty really took care of us through the process. We really appreciated the time he spent helping us through the process.

My experience with Rusty was excellent. He had extensive knowledge of the area and he did a good job of processing what I said I wanted into where we should go look. This was particularly impressive as the initial search that I requested, consisted of an area from Menlo Park to Los Gatos. Rusty helped me narrow down the search and I ended up in a house that I love. In terms of the process, his experience really shone through. He let me know what to expect during each phase, expertly negotiated price, and was always very responsive to my questions. He was also always on time for appointments, which is something that I appreciate. I would recommend Rusty's services to anybody looking to buy or sell a home. Less

Rusty worked with us to sell our house in the dreaded lull of the 2009 market and I don't think we would have had success without him. He was quick and efficient in all areas and was also able to recover from a initial fall through loan approval on the first buyer. His advice as to pricing and listing worked very well. He was always prompt with all paperwork and there were no mixups during the process from the selling end. Highly recommended!
