Joseph Paul

About Joe Paul You will find my solid background in real estate, banking, and a former elected Planning and Zoning Commissioner to be a very strong advantage when it comes to choosing a REALTOR. As a former elected official, a member of the Stratford Board of Assessment Appeals, and former Democratic Candidate for Mayor of Stratford, I have a unique perspective and commitment to the real estate needs in Connecticut. I've been in the real estate profession for over 25 years, serving both buyers and sellers in Fairfield and New Haven Counties. I also have over 30 years' experience as a senior vice president in the banking profession. As a bank executive I've experienced first-hand the challenges of relocating my family to other states for company business needs, and I am able to use my own relocation experience to help clients smoothly transition their families to meet personal and business needs. It will give me great pleasure to serve all of your real estate needs and I look forward to working for you. You'll find me to be very easy to work with and a good listener who keeps you, the client, well informed.

Real estate transactions involve one of the biggest financial investments most people experience in their lifetimes, I am here to help!
