Why did we choose Ken Pecus of exp to be our realtor? We can answer that in one powerful word: Trust. Many good friends have been using Ken for years, so we certainly wanted to meet him as a consideration before deciding on a realtor to sell our Encinitas home. We caught Ken’s enthusiasm and positivity immediately! We appreciated his candor, along with his genuine goal to represent our home of 36 years with integrity and creativity. Ken spent days embracing the feel of our house and neighborhood so he could authentically describe it in his masterful way on the MLS, but more importantly, he was able to honestly share our property as it was, or could potentially be, for others. Ken Pecus surrounds himself with an efficient and professional team of people who absolutely helped to keep us on track time- wise, and answer any little question we had. … Read More

My wife and I decided to relocate from the Bay Area to San Diego in 2021. We spent significant time searching for the right realtor. After much research, we selected Ken Pecus and his group. We aced this decision! We could not have been more pleased with Ken’s representation. In a world filled with mediocrity and negatively, Ken brought passion, excitement, intelligence, and knowledge to the process, from start to finish. Ken and his group were honest throughout, and my goodness do they know San Diego real estate! After a thorough search, Ken found us our dream home, a gorgeous luxury condominium in Bankers Hill. We cannot recommend Ken and his team enough.

Ken and his team were amazing to work with. We were selling this house from another state, and they handled everything so well for us. From repairs and staging prior to putting on the market, to the open houses and quick sale, everything was done amazingly well, with lots of communication.

Ken is the epitome professional and we could not have chosen a more savvy, intelligent, talented realtor to represent us in our home purchase and sale. We were referred to Ken when we were looking to buy in San Diego and he gave us the guidance and negotiation skills we needed to get us into our perfect San Diego Craftsman dream home. Two kids later, we outgrew that home and were ready to sell. Ken was able to seamlessly secure a high quality buyer and sell our home for more than we ever imagined. He connected us with an extremely capable team of experts to hold our hands through the process and get our home and yard in magazine-worthy shape for photos & showings. Having been in this business in this city for over 30 years, Ken is the only person you’ll ever want or need in your corner when it comes to … Read More

A real estate transaction is a complicated matter that puts much at stake and tests a household in many ways.  It’s not only one of the largest financial transactions most people will take on, but the endeavor is also very emotionally draining.  The long list of things that a seller must do to put a home on the market can be overwhelming and trying to sell in the midst of a pandemic only adds insult to injury.  After an excruciating month of having our home listed on the MLS through a discount brokerage, we garnered nothing but frustration and disappointment.  We had no choice but to continue suffering or restrategize our approach.  We decided to ditch the discount broker and go with the best of the best, which required some research.  The Ken Pecus Group of Compass kept surfacing through our search and, after a phone consultation and a safely conducted home visit, … Read More

“Ken and his team were incredible as always. The process was seamless from start to finish. They are absolutely professional and the best negotiators in the business. They got me top dollar for my apartment building and I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend Ken and his team to anyone who is looking to buy or sell In San Diego or elsewhere”

We all know buying a house is one of the most stressful life situations there is, which is why I am so grateful that I had Ken and Thad as my team to navigate this process. They took the time to understand what was really important to me and Thad tailored the showings accordingly. Both were always quick to reply and offered easy to understand answers to all of my questions. When it came time to negotiate on offers Ken provided rock solid advice and recommendations. The years of experience in all kinds of markets here in San Diego makes these two an enormous asset.   Fast forward-I have a new home that I love, I feel I paid a fair price, and the process could not have been smoother-start to finish-because these guys were on point every step of the way (and a 21 day close of escrow with … Read More

We initially started working with Ken and Shannon because Ken was highly recommended by a close friend of ours who had purchased and sold many properties with him and his team.  My fiancé and I were embarking on an important journey of purchasing our first home together. We put our trust in Ken and Shannon and their team to make this journey as seamless as possible.  Right from the start, and throughout the process, they exceeded every expectation.  Purchasing a home can be stressful enough, but we can’t imagine how we would have managed without them.  They were so essential to finding our dream home, negotiating our best offer, and because of Ken’s great professional reputation and relationship building, we had a strong position when competing with other buyers for our dream home.  We honestly don’t believe we could have successfully closed the deal without Ken working diligently on our … Read More
