Bio
Pavel has over 48 years of real estate experience in four states. There is no other Realtor in Taos with more experience. Pavel has never sought any affiliations with America’s corporate real estate franchises. Instead, focusing on affiliation with the people and businesses of Northern New Mexico. Their Brokerage generated money stays in the local community. Born in Prague, Czechoslovakia, Pavel is multi-lingual, a licensed pilot and certified ski instructor and most importantly Realtor, Builder/Developer, and once again, a Top Producer in 2020. Pavel loves construction! He began his Real Estate and building career in 1973 in Michigan, where he built more than three hundred custom homes near Ann Arbor and throughout Southeastern Michigan. His claim to fame, from those days, was building a home for Dr. Fauci’s boss, the NIH (National Institute of Health) director Dr. Francis Collins, while he was at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and well before he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in November 2007, and received the National Medal of Science in 2009 and appointed by President Obama. After moving to Southern California, he also practiced real estate and later was employed by J.M. Peters Company, a prestigious Newport Beach-based residential developer of high-end homes. Pavel's extensive knowledge and experience provide a solid foundation for Dreamcatcher Real Estate Companies and Dreamcatcher Building Services, Inc. Now, Dreamcatcher has become the #1 Boutique real estate company with a small but high powered and competent cadre of experienced real estate professionals who frequently outperform the franchised big guys who staff three times the number of realtors. Dreamcatcher’s commitment of service to clients is #1 and extends far beyond successful closings. It is all about establishing relationships and becoming a meaningful resource for clients before, during, and after a sale. Pavel’s expertise, coupled with a creative vision of Taos's future, became the driving force behind Pueblo de los Sueños (Pueblo of Dreams), a completed and sold-out condominium project on Kit Carson Road. The project's success led to Suenos del Canon Condominiums, Casa Encantada Condominiums, and Suenos de la Loma. Dreamcatcher Plaza, Taos's first premier Office suites, is the home of Dreamcatcher Real Estate Co., Inc. and is also the reflection of Pavel's vision for new development. In 2001, the Mayor of Taos appointed Pavel to the Town of Taos Planning Commission where he is still active. He was also a member of the Historic Preservation Commission. These positions serve as the public’s acknowledgment of Pavel's commitment to the preservation and enhancement of the town's uniqueness, and his integrity. Pavel credits himself with having single-handedly sold "Ski Rio", a 2700-acre Ski Area and snowboarder paradise, and The Latir Ranch, a six thousand plus acre ranch and hunting retreat, to date the largest commercial/ranch sales in Taos Co., not once but twice. With such a history spanning 28 years in Taos, choosing Pavel to represent your real estate objectives is more than just a safe bet that you will receive the highest degree of competence and knowledge of the Taos area real estate market and resource on all things Taos, for years to come. In closing, no matter what brings you to Taos, Pavel & Dreamcatcher Real Estate is your first friend ready to not only welcome you but who will deliver, on your Taos dreams, while making your experience a joyful journey.
