We worked with McT Real Estate this year to both sell our old home and purchase our new one, both in the Golden Hill neighborhood. Chaz helped us buy our home and Z handled the sale of our former home. They were both fantastic! They worked quickly and were personal and professional. They love central San Diego and that came through with their knowledge of the local neighborhood and the market. They promptly responded to all of our questions and addressed our concerns with helpful input or information. We felt well taken care of during the entire process and if we are ever buy or sell again in San Diego would go with them. Thank you McT Real Estate Group!

I’m giving this 5-star review for Z. McT and the McT Real Estate Group for selling my University Heights home in San Diego. I first met Z. McT and her partner, Mary, when they sold my home in North Park years ago, and it was such a great experience that I didn’t hesitate to work with Z again when buying my next home in University Heights. Twelve years later, when it came time to sell that home, I naturally reached out to Z once more, and I’m so glad I did! Z is incredibly professional, warm, and calming, which was exactly what I needed during the stressful process of selling a home I had lived in for over a decade.

We decided to sell our investment property in San Diego and called the McT Real Estate Group, who have sold homes in nearby areas for many years and have a great reputation. From day one, Z took charge, walked the property, made recommendations, coordinated their handyman for a quick touch-up, had the home professionally cleaned, painted, and staged. They created a marketing video and targeted both local buyers and out-of-state buyers looking to relocate to San Diego. We received several offers, selected the best one, and closed escrow 32 days later. As out-of-state sellers, we really appreciated her professionalism and constant communication throughout the process. We would absolutely recommend Z. McT and the McT Real Estate Group to anyone looking to sell an investment property in San Diego.

We recently worked with the McT Real Estate Group to both purchase a new home and sell our condo, and we couldn’t be more impressed with the experience. Chaz helped us find our new home, while Z handled the sale of our condo, and both were exceptional. Chaz was incredibly patient and never pushy. He was also really great during the inspection process, making it smooth and stress-free. Selling a condo comes with its own set of challenges, especially dealing with HOA documents and other complexities. Z went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled efficiently, allowing us to close the deal successfully. Their knowledge and expertise were evident every step of the way. We would definitely work with them again and highly recommend the McT Real Estate Group. If you’re looking to buy or sell in the North Park, University Heights, Hillcrest, City Heights, or Normal Heights areas, they should be your first call.

This is my second time using the McT team. Both times I sold my house within a week and for asking price. They made the process very streamlined and communicated well to ensure a speedy escrow. Could not recommend them enough to sell in North Park since they know the area well.

Z and Chaz at McT Real Estate Group were fantastic and we used them for the sale of our home. They are easy to talk to, they explain the entire process in the beginning and keep you updated throughout the process. They have many years of experience which was reflected in their work and advice. We look forward to using them again for the purchase of our home in the near future.

If you are looking to buy or sell in the North Park or Uptown neighborhoods, McT Real Estate Group is the first place you need to go. Their knowledge of the local market is second to none. In this section of town, local knowledge goes a long way. Best real estate transaction I’ve had!

Zee and Mary McT are simply THE BEST realtors we’ve ever had. They represented us to sell our home in Clairemont last month — it went under contract in a week!

Z and Mary are excellent Realtors and we highly recommend them if you are buying or selling a home. From the beginning of our search to find a home in San Diego until closing, they were attentive and professional.

I wanted to take a moment to post a rave review about Z and Mary McT as they went over and above all expectations for the sale of our home in South Park. Z actually represented us and absolutely exceeded what we thought was possible.

Z and her team were extremely helpful to us when we unexpectedly had to sell our home in Lemon Grove. They made a difficult process much easier. Z was available when we needed her, and gave us good advice on getting our place fixed up for sale. Her team helped us complete that process. She speedily negotiated a good sale, and helped us handle the many details that arose. She is experienced and professional, and also personable. It was a pleasure to work with her!

I’m giving Z. McT and the McT Real Estate Group a 5-star review as the listing agent on a recent sale in University Heights, San Diego. I represented the buyers in this transaction, and from start to finish, Z made the entire process smooth, professional, and successful. Z came prepared with a clear pricing strategy backed by deep knowledge of the University Heights and North Park markets. She presented all offers professionally, responded quickly to feedback, and kept communication open even during the most intense negotiations.
★★★★★
Hadas Metzler
As the buyer’s representative in a recent North Park transaction, I had the pleasure of working with Z. McT-Contreras, who represented the sellers. From start to finish, the transaction was incredibly smooth thanks to Z.’s professionalism, responsiveness, and collaborative approach. Our communication throughout the process was excellent. Z. was always available, transparent, and proactive, which helped ensure that every step moved forward efficiently. As a North Park realtor, she clearly knows the local market well and brought that expertise to the table.
★★★★★
Mary Ann Glowacki
The McT Real Estate Group was recommended to my husband and me. We couldn’t have been more pleased. Z listened to our goals, created a clear strategy, and guided us through every step of selling our home. Within about a week, we were under contract. We just closed while other units in our complex are sitting on the market. Z treated us as family by answering all of our questions and concerns immediately after contacting her. If you need a knowledgeable, trusted San Diego realtor for any San Diego real estate needs, we highly recommend Z and the McT Real Estate Group.
