Working in sales since age 16, Paul Macapagal always knew he wanted to get into an industry he would find most fulfilling. Since 2006, that has been real estate. In 2005, when he was preparing to buy his first investment property, Paul realized he wanted to understand the New York City real estate market better, so became an agent and loves the job. Now his mission is to help others understand the market, and make sound decisions based on their needs and finances.

Paul is a natural at helping people. He's also a great negotiator who sees both sides of the picture. Whether you are buying, selling or renting property, you're in excellent hands. "I never lose sight of my clients' goals," says Paul, who sets his standards higher than anyone else in the business. "My clients expect me to be constantly improving my knowledge and service, so I am constantly retooling myself. I'm here to educate and navigate them through the market so they make confident decisions that ensure satisfaction and great value."Paul sells and rents luxury condos, coops, townhouses and new developments throughout Manhattan. He is also a listing specialist for owners and landlords, and an expert in corporate relocation. Paul has accumulated personal experience as an investor as well, specifically in the furnished rental arena. He's sold residential and commercial properties, with clients ranging from Fortune 500 executives and Hollywood actors to UN Diplomats and Ambassadors of Foreign Countries.

When representing a property, Paul draws on his broad expertise to accurately price and aggressively market each client's unique home. He also takes full advantage of internet marketing and social media to generate wide exposure. Paul's command of technology is complemented by his talent for photography which showcases listings in the very best possible light. "I don’t just show an apartment. I present it with care and meticulous detail."

Customer service has always been the backbone of Paul's success. He previously owned several businesses, worked as a professional photographer, and in various sales capacities. This set the stage for his outstanding record in real estate. Paul sold 16 properties and rented 11 in his first year, and was ranked in the Top 10 percent in the U.S. at his former company.

A native New Yorker, Paul studied Finance at Baruch College. He has lived on the Lower East Side, in Gramercy, Battery Park City, on the Upper West Side, and currently in Midtown West. His favorite hobbies include photography, motorcycle and auto racing, running, diving and adventure travel.
