Paul Echavarria
“Follow the Coldwell Retriever”
By Lalaena Gonzalez-Figueroa - Ian Wiant Photographer
W
hen opportunity knocks, Paul Echavarria
doesn’t just answer; he builds new doors.
His uncanny ability to create success has
propelled him throughout the course of his career,
enabling him to thrive despite challenging market
trends. At once affable and professional, he uses his
skills to assist his diverse clientele in achieving their
real estate dreams.
Long interested in the opportunities available in real
estate, Paul focused on the stability of a traditional
job in order to support his family. For over 20 years
he served as a telephone industry business technician,
until the day when opportunity doused him with a
wake-up call.
“When I was at the phone company I hated rainy
days,” he recalls. “They made work so miserable. One
day I woke up and it was raining and I decided I’d had
enough.” He left his job, enrolled himself in a real
estate training program, and shortly thereafter earned
his license. It was 2007, by no means the ideal time
to launch a real estate career, but that didn’t dissuade
Paul. “Experienced agents were struggling, but I didn’t
know any different,” he says. “For me, real estate was
a great career right off the bat.”
