The History...
In early 1990 Paul L. Hulme, the founder and owner of Alain Pinel Realtors, recognized that today’s real estate business was altogether different. He saw that old solutions and traditional approaches to business were neither practical, nor effective. A new way of practicing real estate demanded vision, a spirit of innovation, and a philosophy to undertake an entirely new approach as yet unseen in the real estate industry. Above all, he understood that quality is a universal language, and resolved to fashion every aspect of the business from a fresh perspective.
With these ideals and concepts firmly fixed, Alain Pinel Realtors was launched in August of 1990. Since then, the company has charted a course of dynamic, sustained and remarkable growth; building from a small group of three people to over 1,250 Sales Professionals and support staff located in twenty four prestigious and luxurious offices in Santa Clara, San Mateo, San Francisco, Alameda, Contra Costa, Monterey and Santa Cruz counties. The firm is now the largest independent residential real estate firm in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Our Mission
Alain Pinel Realtors is the realization of a dream. We believe that real estate is much more than just listing and selling homes. We believe that a home reflects people’s hopes and dreams, their lifestyle, and how they participate in and contribute to their community. A person’s home defines who they are.
Our mission, therefore, is to achieve customer satisfaction, with exceptional people, to require performance that inspires, to demand ever-higher standards of care, and to build a culture where aspirations, dreams and vision have free rein, and quality is the universal language.
