Sotheby's International Realty
Mary Lou Castellanos is a consummate real estate professional who not only understands the art of deal-making, but also the art of relationships. She makes the process of buying and selling homes an uplifting experience. A San Francisco native, Mary Lou has a tremendous appreciation for the City, its rich history, and its diverse communities. Her knowledge of San Francisco's real estate market and market trends is unparalleled.
Mary Lou began her successful career in commercial real estate as a marketing manager for TRI, where she leased office space for Golden Gateway Commons, working with major clients such as Bank of America. With this experience, plus a degree in International Business and Marketing from San Francisco State University, Mary Lou brings a balanced perspective to residential real estate, where she found her true calling. After almost two decades in the business she can honestly say that she loves every minute of it!
Mary Lou's expertise is marketing up-scale homes in San Francisco to local, national and global buyers, across all major media channels and through her extensive, personal international network of contacts. A goodwill ambassador by nature, she makes friends wherever she travels, which is her passion. On a recent trip to Egypt, for example, she was accorded the privilege, by an archeologist, of entering a newly discovered tomb which is not open to the public. She was also invited to the Philippines for an ambassador tour by the Consulate General of the Philippines. Clearly, Mary Lou's core competence is the art of cultivating relationships.
When Mary Lou Castellanos represents buyers, she presents all viable options to her clients, including those properties that are not officially listed, but could be available for sale, based on her inside information.Having completely remodeled her own Pacific Heights residence that was originally built in 1920 and featured in House Beautiful Magazine prior to her selling it, Mary Lou knows intrinsic quality and value when she sees it. When she doesn't see it she lets her clients know, without hesitation.
