We had an amazing experience working with Sean! He was incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, and always available to answer every question we had. When we had questions about negotiating the offer, understanding the inspection report, and even remodeling ideas or facts about materials in the home he took the time to explain everything clearly and made us feel confident in our decisions. From start to finish, he guided us through the process and made buying a house feel so much easier and less stressful. We truly felt supported every step of the way and couldnt recommend him more!
Sean was great to work with. Helped us find a great home, helped us sell our previous home and helped with everything needed from vendors to expertise to get the home closed on time. We couldnt recommend Sean more.
Rusteen guided me through the purchase of a new home and then yje sale of my previous home. The purchase process was a long one because I took my time finding the perfect place. Rusteen was a great resource because he was very knowledgeable about many different San Diego neighborhoods. On each of the properties I looked at, he gave me very honest pros and cons, always keeping my best interest in mind. I valued and relied on his input. When we found aEURoetheaEUR? place, Rusteen was an astute negotiator. After my offer was accepted, he and his team guided me through the inspection and paperwork process and everything went very smoothly. When it came time to put my previous home on the market, Rusteen and Sean gave me sound advice on a listing price, as well as all the repairs/improvements that should be made before listing. The property sold for more than asking price in less than two weeks, with multiple offers. I could not be more pleased, and I'm very grateful.
This was our third transaction this past year with Sean and his team. Without a doubt, we invest our trust and commitment in Sean and will recommend him to our friends and family. He made the selling process smooth and hassle-free. Our property sold in minimal time for over the asking price, and we couldn't have been more thrilled. All systems were in place with Sean's excellent communication skills, professionalism, and extensive market knowledge. His strong supporting cast, especially Rebecca, was also readily available to answer any and all of our questions (and we usually had a lot!) with strong knowledge and expertise. We highly recommend Sean for his superior service and dedication to his clients.
I received a call from Sean telling me my appraisal had come in lower than our asking price. Normally this would have been a big deal. I never heard back from Sean as he was able to negotiate with the buyers agent and buyers to get them to take a higher loan amount which in turn did not affect the sales price. This transaction closed on time and in a very short time (2 weeks). I was impressed with Sean's whole team starting with his brother Rustine who ran our open houses, to Rebecca who kept me apprised of all the feedback after every open house. The escrow team that Sean selected was on it and had us sign prior to closing as we were moving out of the country. This was by far the smoothest transaction I've ever experienced. I would wholeheartedly recommend Sean and his team. Thank you guys loving my new life in Puerto Vallarta Mexico.
Brandon Gutierrez was an absolute pleasure to work with! My partner and I couldnt be happier with the home-buying experience he provided. Brandon is incredibly knowledgeable, fun to work with, and truly goes above and beyond with his concierge-level service. Being part of Sean Zanganeh's team, we also had the privilege of working with Rebecca Arce, the office manager, who was instrumental in coordinating home inspections and handling all things escrow-related. Together, they made what can be a stressful process feel seamless and enjoyable. We highly recommend Brandon and the entire team for anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

This was our second time working with Sean and his team and once again, they provided us with VIP, first-class treatment. The genuine care and support he has for his clients is very apparent. He really took the time to understand our preferences and lifestyle, which led to finding a forever home. His communication was timely, with a wonderful balance of professionalism and a personalized approach. He has excellent market knowledge with a keen eye for comps and vast expertise across San Diego County. Sean and his team are real estate magicians. All of the in-between, nitty-gritty, and behind-the-scenes work was done with a flick of their wand. We highly recommend Sean and his team for all of your real estate needs.
Sean was amazing. He brought a lot of industry and local knowledge, and seemed to know about the best properties immediately. Most importantly he took the time to - and was able to - get to know us, and then tailored his recommendations and advice for us at each stage in the process. He has become much more than an agent, he is a trusted advisor. You'll do well if you choose Sean.
Sean was without doubt the best realtor for the sale of our house. I highly recommend Sean and his team. Both he and Rebecca were always easy to talk to, upfront with information, knowledge, and updates. They kept us at ease during what was a big learning experience, and wonderful to deal with from the beginning. Sean knows the current market inside and out, and put a lot of thought into what would be the right strategy, which meant he wasnt afraid to alter and fine tune for the best outcome. Even in escrow they were right there, and proactive for a smooth closing. We always felt confident in our decision to go with Sean, and it was a very positive experience.
Sean Zaganeh is a professional in every sense of the word. This is the second time we have used him in a real estate transaction with both experiences exceeding our expectations. Sean and his team were in constant communication with us during the entire sale. His knowledge of the market and recommendations are only a few of his many real estate attributes . We truly have no reservations in recommending Sean and his team for any real estate need. Thank you Sean for a great experience.
We can't say enough wonderful things about Sean and his office staff. As everyone knows, selling or buying a property and moving is a very stressful process and to have a realtor that you trust and rely on is paramount. We have used Sean 3 times and every time he has exceeded expectations. He has a very professional staff holding our hands and guiding us every step along the way. My husband and I would not hesitate to recommend him to friends and family.
I recently had a pleasure of working with Sean on the sale of my property as well as buying a new property with Sean. If you are looking for a Lionel Messi or Ronaldinho in their prime as a real estate agent, Sean is that person. It is truly an honor watching him perform in his prime and handle transactions the way he does. He is professional, trustworthy, knowledgeable, absolutely is top of the league in the field which his street smarts and know how and knows when to push and pull to get a deal done.
Sean and his team did an excellent job assisting us with selling our condo. Sean has extensive knowledge and experience in getting condos sold within our development in Mission Valley, which made the transaction seamless and smooth. Upon meeting Sean initially, we found him to be extremely personable, respectful, and professional. He always took the time to listen to us meaningfully and he was timely and consistent with his responsiveness. Additionally, we cannot say enough about his assistant, Rebecca. She mirrors all of the positive qualities that Sean possesses, and it was an absolute pleasure to work with her. She walked us through every step of the way and clarified items when necessary. Without a doubt, we would work with Sean and his team again on future transactions and would be happy to recommend Sean to any of our friends and family.
Sean and his team, Rebecca and Julia did a magnificent job in selling our property. From the moment we signed up, the process started rolling, from clearing all our household items, with their provided personnel, to inside painting with Seans great color suggestion, to cleanup and to the final inspection, the whole process went very smoothly. One thing that really surprises us was the initial open house that was held, they had 20 couples that came over and we had 2 offers above our requested price right on that same day, quite unbelievable. The first offer didnt materialized, however the second offer went through and with the diligent services by Rebecca and Julia, we were able to close escrow in about three weeks. The whole time while in process, Rebecca was in constant touch with us with any updates and any concerns that needs attention were taken cared of in a very smooth manner. I cant thank enough Seans team for his excellent services that was provided in the selling of our property. Super great job and a great thank you to Sean, Rebecca and Julia, definitely we will be seeking their services in the future.
We met Rusteen at an open house, and were impressed by his approachability and professionalism. We began working with him and due to market conditions and living in Northern California, our search took almost 2 years. Throughout this lengthy process, Rusteen was always patient, knowledgeable, and positive. He also previewed many homes and provided virtual tours for us. We highly recommend Rusteen and the Zanganeh Team.
Sean did a fantastic job of helping us close on our first home in San Diego. He was always available throughout the entire process and took his time to show us different neighborhoods within the San Diego market that fit the specifications of what we were looking for. Sean was also very well connected with other agents in the area and was able to negotiate a deal that we were very happy with. I highly recommend him and will be using him for any real estate ventures in our future in the area.
I HIGHLY recommend Sean for any of your real estate needs! He was able to help us find our dream home quickly and made the entire process very easy. Not only did he help us with the purchase of our home but he also helped connect and schedule contractors to come in and get renovations underway as soon as we closed escrow. Even after closing, Sean checked in with us to ensure renovations / everything was going smoothly as he knew we were on a time crunch to move in! Unfortunately we had a water leak and Sean called to inform me and had a restoration team lined up and scheduled to be at the house only a few hours later. I am so thankful for Sean and his team! They were incredible to work with and we will be sure to use them in the future!
We used Sean and his team for the sale of two homes and the purchase of a home while in California. He was extremely helpful and professional for both. Not only did he get us a fair deal when purchasing, he got us great offers when selling. Highly recommend Sean and his team to anyone in the San Diego area or anyone moving to the area.
Sean & his team did a fantastic job assisting us in purchasing a home. Sean's knowledge of the Poway/Rancho Bernardo area and his experience in negotiations were hugely valuable in finding the right home for our family at the right price. Highly recommended!
Finding a good realtor is such a challenge - with Sean, everything was easy and done with absolute professionalism and precision. My wife and I have bought multiple properties together with many different realtors over the years, and I've always walked away from a transaction with much to be desired. Sean has completely changed my view of just how meaningful working with an excellent realtor like him can be. He is open, direct and honest with his feedback and advice. He's incredibly knowledgeable and resourceful, and approaches his clients with a holistic view of their goals. It's so much more for Sean than closing on the transaction in front of him. For Sean, he goes above and beyond helping his clients realize their entire vision of home ownership and helps think beyond the close of escrow.
Sean and Rebecca and rest of team were very professional, knowledgeable, and outstanding throughout the entire process of our transaction. Highly recommend the Team for your residential and investment brokerage.
Sean and his team are THE BEST!! The team is so knowledgeable, organized and thorough, making the entire buying and selling process so much easier from start to finish. Sean was always available to help and answered all of our questions, guiding us the whole way. We would highly recommend them and would use Sean again in the future.
Sean Z and team did an amazing job helping us find our home and sautA(C) the closing process was smooth. They even helped us after closing with several contractor bids to complete minor remodeling work. I highly recommend Sean for his professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail.
Sean was our realtor for selling our parents house after they passed. In our experience Sean does not listen to his clients well. From the start we got the impression that our best interests were not his priority. He showed us all the data for the area and then tried to get us to set a lower price. He even told us he had contacted a "Flipper" about the property. It was clear from the beginning that he wanted to sell to the "flipper" at a rock bottom price so that he could sell the property a second time after the updates had been made. Additionally he asked us to do things for the property that were unnecessary costs and then was not up front with us as to the costs. For example, he recommended we hire a "deep cleaner" and told us they would do the windows. Then he hired a separate window cleaner. Bottom line...look elsewhere.
Sean was very professional and easy to work with and made the whole process of selling our and buying our new house. Hes very knowledgeable and would always get back to us quickly with all questions. He also had plenty of contacts for the service professionals we needed. Rebecca, his assistant, is extremely helpful and kept everything and everyone running smoothly.
Sean did an excellent job for me. He and his staff kept me informed and they were great at providing good hosts for several open houses. I appreciated his enthusiasm and positive approach to selling my condo.
It was a pleasure working with Sean's team. They were able to quickly find contractors to get our house ready and negotiated a fair price with them. When we put our home up for sale the market had a relative downturn but Sean experience help us find the right price to make the sale. His assistants were easily contacted and kept us updated on the various stages of selling our home. We were also impressed with the first time accuracy of all the DocuSign documents.
Kyle provided excellent services in our home buying journey. He was very patient and forthcoming. We would be happy to work with him in the future. Thank you!
Sean was referred to me by a friend and I'm so glad that I found him. Over the years, Sean and his team have helped me with multiple properties, and it was always a pleasure. He is very skilled and knowledgeable and has an excellent read on the market and current trend. Working with him made life easy. Whenever there were any issues big or small, he would have all sorts of practical and creative solutions for them, which made decision process a breeze. I can completely trust Sean and his team to deal with anything and everything. In fact, I was out of the country for a month and Sean got my property sold! I would recommend Sean to anyone.

I bought a home with Dan and his colleague Sean representing me (as buyer) and also seller. As part of the contract, we agreed a 2 month free rent back, although before I sign the contract I was told most likely sellers would be relocated in just a few weeks after closing the escrow! In reality it took few days less than 2 months that sellers moved out of my home. Even though I think I was not fed with the most accurate information, but I dont blame him for that 2 months, since I should not have trusted to probabilities and I should not have signed 2 months free rent back. The reason of this low stat review is related to what happened after sellers returned the keys. I walked through the home with Dan and we observed couple of areas with obvious damage to drywall (terrible patching work, color mismatch etc), which was not there the last time that I had visited the home before closing the escrow (probably those damages happened within sellers moving outaEUR|). Dan took photos and said he would follow up, which NEVER happened. When I complained to Sean (Dans colleague and/or boss) about what sellers had done to my home after 2 months living there for free, and Sean implicitly accused me of lying, I asked Dan to jump in and show Sean those photos that he had take on his phone on same day he returned the keys to me. But he simply wrote to me aEURoe At this point, I highly recommend you communicate with Sean on this issue for best result. Hes extremely reasonable and knowledgeable on this and will only do whats best for the whole group.aEUR? Unfortunately Dan destroyed my trust when he decided to put a side what hed observed. I was left with no support from double agents. I wont trust these guys at all in buying or selling.
Very professional. The team was right on top of everything. Open house on weekend with multiple offers over asking price.Sean is very helpful in helping us estimate the costs of modifications in the new houses we are looking at.
Sean will help you navigate the new world of home buying with his many years of experience. His insight helped us stay competitive in a hot market. He was very responsive to our questions and requests to view houses. After you buy, Sean has an incredible list of vetted resources that can help you put the final touches on your home. Sean and his team are the real deal!
Sean was fantastic to work with during the entire home search process. We relocated to San Diego from Europe, and engaged Sean virtually several months before we were on the ground. His local knowledge, client focus and market expertise enabled us to make sound decisions, and find a great home in our desired location and school district. Equally his team are very responsive and efficient. They also helped coordinate additional items even after close. I would highly recommend Sean and team for your real estate needs!
Sean helped us find the perfect home for our family. After several months of looking and getting out bid on multiple properties Sean was able to make sure we secured our dream home. We appreciated how Sean and his team was available day and night to answer all our questions throughout the home buying process. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell their home. We look forward to working with Sean in the years to come for our next home.
Sean Zanganeh & Rusteen Zanganeh are excellent agents. They know the market, how to assist the seller and buyer in the best possible way. From prep & photos to listing and sale, they and their stellar team did a phenomenal job for me. Am so grateful for their warmth, knowledge, professionalism and kindness.
Sean is excellent to work with. He has the skills and knowledge to negotiate an excellent price on our condo. This is our second time using Sean for our real estate property and that says it all. We will be using him again.
Amazing experience, super professional and knowledgeable and always available for questions. We were able to sell my condo efficiently and got a great price too. 10/10 would highly recommend!!! Thank you Sean and team, it was such a great experience working with you all. I appreciate all your help!!
We have owned nine homes and five commercial properties. This team is by our experience an extreme in customer service. From introduction call to final offer and sale of our property, we never had a glitch. The team was readily available but we never needed to ask them for updates, they were already on it! Our offers were prepared and presented in a manner that was ingenious.
Seans team is phenomenal especially Daniel, Beth and the lending team that they work with. Navigating todays market was very challenging and they worked hard to secure our dream home against all odds.The team displayed excellent communication, negotiation and technical skills. I highly recommend their services.
I had such a wonderful experience working with Sean and his team! In such a crazy competitive market, I was able to lock down a condo in just a few weeks of searching. As a first time home buyer, I was looking for an agent that was available, knowledgeable, assertive, realistic and honest. In working with Seans team - Gray Murphy as my agent, I had a whole team working together to make it all happen. Going above and beyond my expectations, I even had pre-move in cleaning in place along with quotes facilitated for renovations I wanted thanks to them! Ill definitely be using Gray again for my next home purchase.
Wow, I honestly dont even know where to begin. This was my second time working with Sean. He previously sold me my condo in downtown San Diego back in 2017. Fast forward to 2021, my husband I reached out to him again looking for a house. Long story short- he helped us buy our actual DREAM HOUSE in Solana Beach. He beat out multiple aggressive offers and it was ours a month later-I cant even believe it. He then listed our condo, had excellent marketing and showings,and it went over asking! The best part is Sean is still working with us to make sure we have whatever we need for our new house (painters, handymen, ect). There is honestly no one else I would trust to buy or sell in San Diego. Sean is hard working, beyond knowledgeable, and patient. I have recommended him to all of my family and friends. Beyond grateful for Sean and his team!!
Sean and his team (especially Max) go above and beyond in every aspect of buying and selling a home. They make the process extremely easy on us. I'm SO glad we chose them to represent us through multiple transactions. They are extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of the real estate market. I really believe Sean, Max, and their entire team are the best in the real estate market!
Sean was referred to us by a colleague and friend. He came highly regarded yet we did our due diligence by interviewing several other realtors that were recommended to us. Sean was by far the best fit based on the questions he asked us, how he made us feel, and his expertise. We also very much valued his world-class attitude and approachability. We both bought and sold a house with Sean and his team. What may have impressed me most was the service him and his team provided DURING and AFTER they earned our business already. Their diligence, level of detail (which we are tough to impress here as detail people), follow-through, value-added services, knowledge, and friendliness were off the chart. Sean has treated us amazing and over-communicated with us every step of the way, making a difficult process so much easier and more transparent. Sean and his team put together amazing strategy in both our purchase to cut through a competitive market and also incredible strategy in getting top dollar (setting records in our area) on our sale. We could not be more impressed with the Zanganeh team.
Mr. Zanganeh was very engaged all the way through this process, and was patient in dealing with questions and unique situations. The sale of the house was drawn out prior to the interjection of Mr. Zanganeh but did close in under the projected time frame.
We are extremely grateful to Rusteen and the entire Sean Zanganeh Real Estate team for all the time and effort they spent on helping us find and purchase our retirement home on a golf course. Rusteen provided full service including upgrade suggestions in the homes we saw and the team was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in all aspects of home purchasing from handling multiple bids to financing and closing the deal. They continue to help us with providing vendors for the various projects we want to do to our new home. We will use them to sell our current home to ensure we get the most equity possible. You get a full teem approach when you work with Rusteen!
We are extremely grateful to Sean and Rusteen and the entire Sean Zanganeh Real Estate team for all the time and effort they spent on helping us find and purchase our dream retirement home on a golf course. They were able to guide us through the purchasing process in these crazy times of multiple bids. We found them to be a full service company extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of home purchasing from financing to closing the deal. They continue to help us with providing vendors for the various projects we want to do to our new home. We will use them to sell our current home to ensure we get the most equity possible. When you work with them you get the whole team!
Sean and his team were great to work with...it's a crazy market right now and Sean was there every step of the way to hold our hands, give us advice, and help us navigate everything. He was available at odd hours, responded quickly via text, and never put undue pressure on us - a consummate professional. Max on his team was also super helpful in helping keep of the logistics in order, as well as get us quotes on various renovations/enhancements we were interested in.
We moved to San Diego with 2 small kids. It was a bit chaotic living with family and hotels while we searched for a home here and Sean and team were fantastic! We came to town one weekend and toured 18 homes in distinct neighborhoods, so Sean could get a feel for what we liked/didn't like and he could share pros/cons of neighborhoods. Sean knows San Diego like the back of his hand and that was super valuable to us. He answered any/all questions we had throughout the process and helped us make decisions without making the decisions for us. Sean went above and beyond in finding us a home that was basically off-market and pulled a few favors to do a 8-minute video walkthrough for us so we could get a good sense of the home from afar. We trusted Sean so much we bought the house sight unseen. The close process was super smooth and while we were waiting for that, Sean's team (Max Hoge & co.) were fantastic at lining up vendors to renovate the house the day after we got the keys! Moving is a stressful process, but Sean & his team go above & beyond to take care of so many aspects of the process to not only make sure you get the house you love, but then you make it your own. Can't recommend Sean & team enough and will certainly work with them again if we move (though we're hoping San Diego is home for a long time :) ).
