Working with Greg was a pleasure. He was very proactive and professional when helping my wife and I find a new property. Greg started with a consultation to help understand our requirements and to explain the purchasing process. Greg also made it very clear what was possible and what was not, based on our budget. Buying in San Diego has many challenges, but Greg helped us navigate through the process and made things quite simple. He mapped out areas in San Diego that worked for us and our price point and we went on a number of viewings. It is very challenging finding a property in San Diego that ticks all the boxes, but Greg came through and shared a property with us that did just that. We made the offer which was thankfully accepted and Greg even managed to get us seller credits! I would recommend working with Greg if you're in the market for a new purchase. Thank you, Greg! read more

If you are looking for realtor that you can trust then Gregory Kuchan at Douglas Elliman is your man. He helped me sell my mother's home in San Diego which was in Probate. Greg is very knowlegable and a Probate sale can be complicated. He was on top of everything. He always kept me updated on the progress and answered all my questions. I am happy to say working with Greg Kuchan as my Realtor was a very postive experience. I highly recommend Greg Kuchan to anyone that is need of a Realtor. Becky V read more

We worked with Greg to buy our first house a few years ago and just hired him again to sell it. Both times working with him have been great. He is very communicative, professional, and knowledgeable. Not to mention he is just a cool dude and easy to talk to. Highly recommend using Greg and his team for a smooth transaction whether you are buying or selling. Thanks Greg! read more

I was super nervous entering into the process of buying a home, and Greg's helpfulness and reassurance from beginning to end of this process eased that immensely! He is a great communicator and made sure that I felt comfortable with every step we were taking. I appreciated his flexibility with my schedule along with his eagerness to look at homes as often as I liked. His experience offered so much insight into things I would have not known to look at by myself! Overall, my home search was an awesome experience that happened way less painfully than I ever imagined it could! Can't recommend Greg enough! read more

I had a great experience buying my first home with Greg Kuchan! My friends and I were trying to purchase an investment property in Pacific Beach. Although I checked listings regularly, I wasn't able to find anything. Greg knew we were looking and when this listing came up he approached us right away. As a first time home buyer, I had a lot of questions. Greg was helpful from the very start. He was patient with me when I wanted to read everything before signing. There is so much paperwork! Escrow was more cumbersome than stressful. The seller's agent was not the most responsive. Greg made sure he kept on top of them and we were able to close in a quick 21 days. Greg was even able to negotiate a better deal for us during the "request for repairs" phase than we had originally planned on requesting. How great is that?! When I am in the position where I can buy again within San Diego county, I will definitely come back to Greg and the Werth Realty Group! read more

After almost a year of failed attempts at buying our first house with our previous agent, we decided to try something different. I ended up finding the Greenhouse Group on Yelp and decided to give these guys a try. Let's just say that I was VERY happy that I made the right choice. Greg was an amazing agent!!! He was punctual, knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely easy to work with. He helped us buy our first house in the area and guided us step by step throughout the entire process. We really thought we would never find a house here because of our awful experience with our previous agent, but because of him and the Greenhouse Group, we saw light at the end of the tunnel :). Thank you Greg and Jesse for all your hard work and help with us buying our new home. The experience was truly incredible. Oh and not only did they help us find our beautiful house, they also provided us with a welcome home bin full of snacks, utensils, cleaning supplies, essential oils (so awesome!!), and the list goes on. I highly, highly recommend the Greenhouse Group and Greg and we hope to work with you guys again in the future! read more

Gregory Kuchan - Compass - Our new home:) - Real Estate Agents Near Me - Encinitas, California

Having Greg as my agent was an absolute dream! He helped me realize what was available to me and helped me dream bigger than I thought was possible. I am now the proud owner of a three bedroom two bath home in San Diego when I thought I couldn't qualify for a condo. He held my hand through the whole process and was so patient with me and all my questions. He seemed to understand the emotional process and what I was going through. He was eager to listen as I thought through the many questions and emotions involved in buying a home. From start to finish I had a home in 5 months! I didn't even think I'd qualify 5 months ago! THANK YOU GREG!!! read more

Buying my first home was and is the most stressful thing. Prior to meeting, my brother and I were quick to notice how responsive Greg & co. are. Our first meeting went over eveeeeerything for two hours and I thought I was going to explode. Those two hours though, were spent with Greg being as personable as can be which made it easier. But that's the thing, this entire process was overwhelming but Greg made it so much easier. Would I be alive without Greg? Probably not. Without us knowing, he negotiated to have the seller pay for certain termite damage that saved us a thousand dollars. Greg is organized, friendly and at the end of the day, a really cool guy. I felt completely supported the entire time and could text , call or email anytime and receive an answer within the hour. At every house we looked at, he would ask some questions then run around looking for everything little thing in, out, atop and below the house. I definitely did not know what I was doing but Greg had our back. We got our keys and the most surreal thing was not knowing what to do next because Greg was always there with a game plan. I'm still stressed but we're so thankful to have had Greg on our side. Do yourself a favor and get with Greg read more

Greg helped me find my first property during extremely competitive market in San Diego! He took the time to really hear me out in terms of why I wanted to buy a place and never rushed me into making a decision. Throughout the entire process, Greg was always responsive to my questions and concerns. He always provided me with all the information he had so I could make my own decisions. He's also extremely knowledgeable about homeownership and home maintenance, which I think is a huge plus as a first time home buyer. Excited to work with him again in the future read more

Greg is amazing person and better realtor. He was knowledgeable, available, and always looked out for our best interest. He was plugged into the market and took the time to sit down with us, explain the process, and form a plan and approach that fit our needs and budget. He also has tons of knowledge about construction, which helps him notice lots of details that people miss. He is our go-to real estate agent for life! read more

10 out of 10 recommend. Greg knows all the right people and is an absolute joy to work with. I sent him a list of properties to check out and the next day we were out running around. Over 3 days were checked out places from IB to Oceanside. Phew! He did it all with a huge smile. Love that guy. The swaggy closing gift was unexpected and awesome. read more

This review can't do Greg and The Greenhouse Group justice. This was my first home and I had interviewed a couple other Real Estate Agents before speaking with Jesse (Co-Founder of Greenhouse Group). That meeting was so far above what the other competition had offered. It was a Face-time meeting, since I was remote, where we went over exactly what I was looking for in a home to the finest detail and even spilled over into what I wanted out of life that I darn near got emotional! Jesse then introduced me to Greg to help me find a place and he really understood what I was going after. A big reason I moved to San Diego was to surf and Greg's a surfer so after house hunting, he took the extra time to show me the local surf breaks and we caught some waves at Swami's and Oceanside together! Since I was out of the area, Greg spent some extra time scouting out the area for me and ended up finding me the perfect place by talking to some Carlsbad residents who pointed him in the direction of a home about to the market. Because of this we were able to jump on it and get an offer in accepted quickly! And when I say perfect place, I mean perfect. From the first meeting with Jesse where we laid out everything I wanted, it is pretty much exactly what I got, amazing. The Greenhouse team uses technology effectively and everything can be signed over email and they use the Basecamp app to stay up to date on tasks. I love that they don't waste paper and that they are very modern in their ways. Greg negotiated with the seller for the repairs I needed which for my home was above and beyond. We almost went through the whole process without a hitch, but at the last minute, the termite inspection was delayed, due to an error by the listing agent so I was out of a home for a few days. Greg was concerned about this and negotiated to have the listing agent put me up in a place for a few days, which ended up being a nice resort! I'm really grateful for the "above and beyond" attitude of Greg and the entire team. Home-buying is stressful enough but to have a team that has your back no matter what is a huge load off. You can't go wrong with Greg and his team, trust me! read more

Greg is the man! He made the search for our first home 100x easier than what we expected. He knows exactly what he's doing and it is always a pleasure to work with someone who is passionate about what they do. While viewing potential homes, he would always make sure to do a thorough walk through of every nook and cranny, checking to make sure everything was working properly. He would also go around asking us how we felt about the house and always made sure that we stayed on track for what we were looking for in a home. When sending over our offer, he made sure everything was in order. Even after our offer was accepted, he made sure that we were well taken care of for the rest of the process. We never felt discouraged about anything and knew we could count on him if we had any additional questions or concerns. Highly recommend Greg if you're looking for an awesome real estate agent! read more

If you're currently looking to buy a home, then Greg is the person to work with! My wife and I worked with Greg for over a year to buy our first home. He was with us every step of the way and we learned so much from him throughout the process. From what to look for in a home, to market knowledge, housing appreciation, inspection details, and much more. He was truly amazing to work with, and always provided us with the best advice that ultimately landed us in our great new home. Greg is easy to work with, very friendly, and always available when you need him. Would highly recommend him and his team at Douglas Elliman. read more

Greg made our home sale easy and painless. We moved out and he took care of everything to get the home sold for a lot of money. We just had to make a few decisions (with good recommendations from Greg) and sign some documents. We did it all remotely. And he's a nice guy and easy to talk to. We highly recommend him. read more

My husband and I could not be more happy with our real estate experience. Greg Kuchan is an amazing realtor to work with. Not only was he incredibly knowledgeable about the whole experience AND about how to spot house defects, he made the whole experience fun and light-hearted. We were really nervous shopping for our first home with our one-year-old in this crazy market, but Greg got us over the finish line and we are so lucky to have had him with us every step. His team at Douglas Elliman and the other personnel he recommended to us were also great recommendations that we enjoyed working with as well (from broker to financial advisor), so it was definitely a full package that we got. When we are ready to sell we know who we'll be calling! read more

Incredible team and service! 11 out of 10! We put our home up for sale on Thursday and accepted an offer on the following Sunday. The team knew exactly what they were doing and how to make things happen. Paperwork and communication was smooth and always on time. Truly exceptional service. Cannot sing the praises of Greg and his team enough! read more

Greg is awesome! He helped us every step of the way to navigate through the process of finding our first home! We are so thankful for his expertise and his knowledge. His experience in the market is evident. He is so fun and friendly but also professional, honest and patient. We appreciated how his excitement level matched ours and how genuine he wants to help you. When looking at houses, we liked his vision and suggestions when we asked for it but also loved that he is not pushy at all. We were also amazed at the amount of showings he was able to get us in a short amount of time. If you or someone you know is thinking about purchasing a home, then Greg is your guy! He will help you find the perfect home for you and make it a fun, and enjoyable experience. read more

This is review is long overdue. Greg did a fantastic job for us as our agent in our 16-month long search for a home. The first phase of our search was long distance. Greg really hustled for us by taking us on remote tours of homes, i.e., doing video walkthroughs of homes and talking to us about what he saw. We almost closed on a place early on in the process, but it fell through due to inspection issues. After that, we moved to San Diego and took a little time off from house hunting. A few months later, we started again and this time we were able to work with Greg in person. He has a great eye for potential issues with houses and is always available when you need him. We finally put in an offer on a place and Greg zealously negotiated on our behalf and helped both parties navigate an otherwise complicated situation. After we closed, he even helped us relocate some of the koi fish in our pond! read more

We spoke with a number of real estate agents before deciding to go with Greg, and we couldn't be happier with the decision. Greg sat down with my wife and I to really get to know us and understand what we were looking for in our first home. He sat in the car with our two screaming kids time after time as we made the hour long drive to look at homes. His knowledge of construction was extremely helpful. He's unbelievably responsive...whatever time of day I called or texted, he made himself available. I could go on and on. Long story short...if you are buying a home, call Greg. Not only did we walk away from this experience with a beautiful new home, we also made a new friend. Really can't beat that. read more

Working with Greg has been an absolute delight! It is because of him that buying our first home was an enjoyable process. My husband and I knew from the first conversation that we had with Greg that we were in good hands. Through the entire process we felt heard and understood. Greg truly invested in us and was beyond patient with my indecisiveness and endless questions! When you are making one of the biggest decisions of your life, it is really nice to have someone by your side who is relaxed while being reliable and relatable while being incredibly knowledgeable. Greg is on time every time, was always available to take a call or answer a text, and happy to just allow us to process through things with him. Greg took the time to learn about our lifestyle, our kids, and our needs which all came together in him finding us a gem!! Another cool thing is that Greg is incredibly knowledgeable about all sorts of cool stuff that comes in very handy when house hunting. He always was able to answer our endless questions about everything you can imagine which was comforting and we feel like we learned a bunch! We had fun with Greg and truly feel like we ended the process with our dream home and a dear friend. We are so incredibly thankful! read more

My friend referred me to Greg Kuchan who also helped him find his home. Greg is one of the most honest, genuine and professional human beings I've ever had the pleasure of doing business with. He really laid it all out there in the beginning. He took the time to get to know us first, gather our needs and wants then prepared us upfront on what to expect, getting us in the right mindset. Once the home search started, he nurtured us throughout the rest of the process until the very end. But it didn't stop there. He still helped after that fact with things that needed to be worked on around the house. He works very diligently on getting things done. I mean the guy helped us get our offer accepted while we were out in Hawaii on vacation! He also knows his stuff when it comes to home inspections on what to look for, things that you wouldn't know to look for and will take the time to explain things to you as well. Really knows his citrus plants as well. I highly recommend him as your agent. Also, I forgot to mention that I was a first time home buyer. I hope this helps! read more

Gregory Kuchan - Compass - Real Estate Agents Near Me - Encinitas, California

Greg is the most personable and outgoing human ever. He is so easy to be around and is truly there to help you, not persuade you into anything or make you feel rushed to find a house. As first time home buyers, Greg was extremely patient while guiding us through the process, as we had many questions along the way. If he didn't know an answer, he was also great about reaching out to others to get those answers. Before we started looking at homes, he sat down and truly listened to what we wanted in a home and the areas of San Diego we liked. While submitting offers, he helped us prepare for worst case and best case scenarios while offering profession advice. Greg is extremely knowledgeable in his scope, and he had many valuable connections and referrals to trusting loan officers, home inspectors, and other experts that we found helpful when going through the home buying process. Greg's team is also fabulous and so easy to work with. Overall, we could not have asked for a more smooth home buying process. Can not recommend Greg enough! read more

Greg was the guy we were looking for! When buying a house, one of the most stressful things is finding people you can trust. Fortunately for my wife and I, we had the opportunity to have Greg as our realtor. His knowledge of the industry is as good as you'll find! He helped us find our current home and was very informative through out the whole process. It felt like he was always one step ahead of the game. He was able to answer all our questions throughout the process and at no point did we ever have to reach out elsewhere. If you're looking for an easy home buying experience, Greg is the guy for you! read more

I work on the Loan Side of things at the GreenHouse Group, so at first it may seem a little odd to be writing a review about someone who hangs their license under the same company, but I have been in the business a little while now and after you have so many transactions under your belt, you begin to appreciate the little things people can do (especially from an Mortgage Planning perspective), and I have found plenty of those when working with Greg. I've worked with Greg on a number of transactions over the years and I have always found his approach to be honest, knowledgeable, and extremely numeral when navigating tough situations during a purchase. Being on the loan side of things, I definitely appreciate it when I can work with someone who can calmly navigate obstacles, while keeping the clients best interest at mind, but still have the fortitude to negotiate and appease all interested parties. read more

Greg went above and beyond to help my better half and I secure our dream home. That sounds like a sales pitch, but to say anything less would be lying. Never an easy task, Covid made things extra interesting this year, but nothing could slow down Greg and he was always (ALWAYS) available for us to schedule tours or even just to share some wisdom. His experience and thorough knowledge of buying and selling granted us some tips and tricks that ended up setting us out from the crowd, and in the end, got us the home we wanted at a price we were were comfortable with. I can't say enough good things about Greg, and I can't imagine working with anyone else in San Diego. read more

I cannot say enough great things about Greg. We closed on our house today and have him to thank for guiding us the entire time. We're first-time home buyers and didn't know much about the process of making such a huge purchase. One major advantage that Greg has over other agents is that he has a background in renovations so he was able to notice any "red flags" in a house that would cost us a lot of money in repairs. He gave us a ton of great tips on renovation ideas that we had and even connected us with a contractor. Greg has an upbeat yet calming personality that kept us motivated throughout the house search. He also helped us to not freak out about all of the decisions we had to make while keeping us on track with important deadlines. Even though there were many people we could call at the agency, we felt most comfortable working with Greg. He's punctual, persistent, flexible and has a sense of urgency that enabled us to get the place we wanted before everyone else could swoop in. I highly recommend that you trust Greg with your home-buying or selling needs! read more

Gregory Kuchan - Compass - Just closed today! Greg brought champagne! - Real Estate Agents Near Me - Encinitas, California

Greg is a fantastic realtor! He helped us to purchase a home here in California while we were living out of state. His communication through the entire process was wonderful. He responded quickly when we had questions and kept us informed every step of the way. We would absolutely use Greg for our property purchasing/selling needs in the future! read more

Working with Greg from The Greenhouse Group was an awesome experience. He was always in contact with us and was very concious about our needs in a new home. He really went above and beyond for us. I highly recommend Greg as your realtor. read more

Greg has got to be your go to realtor! Greg's client focused approaching to helping his buyers is refreshing. Greg is more focused on doing what is right for his clients than getting a sweet commission check. I also know Greg from our local crossfit gym. Greg is the kind of guy you want going to battle for you. Greg is always looking to get better and never backs down from a challenge which is key for a quality realtor to represent you. Work with Greg! read more

Greg and the GreenHouse Group Team were great! We found them on Yelp so it's only fitting that we pay it forward and brag about how great our eco was. My husband and I bought a new build home and we originally talked to Jeremy for the lending side but ended up sticking with Greg for advisement for buying a new home. It was pretty straight forward with a new build home but I appreciated the initial time he took to educate us about the process of home buying and what to look out for. We had our own questions about what to expect and best and worst case scenarios and he was able to answer all our questions in a prompt manner. Very friendly and down to earth. We talk like we are old friends!:). We have already made recommendations to our friends in the home buying process to check them out because we believe in their service that much! We really got lucky to have someone like him on our side! read more

I don't know where to start...I was a first time home buyer last Sept and Greg was with me every step of the way...nite and day. He was very quick to get back to me whenever I had silly first time homebuyer questions. During the time I was looking, it def was a sellers market and I needed to get the offer in asap and he got them done...even within hrs of me saying I want it. He was flexible and met with me when I saw a place I wanted to check out and if he wasn't available, he definitely paired me up with someone from the greenehouse like Jesse to take me there that day! Also, because of his background, he checked for things during the visit that may need work and was able to give me advice. That was a plus plus! Greg! You are awesome! read more

My wife and I were first time home buyers and we loved our experience with Greg, and it's hard to imagine how we would have done it without him. He was a tremendous asset to have on our team and was with us every step of the way - educating us, and guiding us through all the hoops you have to go through. Throughout the process, he was also encouraging, knowledgeable, and accommodating. I cannot tell you how many months we looked and how many houses we saw. We started to become discouraged toward the end, but Greg kept our spirits high. When we finally found the perfect place we were the first to get an offer in, thanks to Greg! We feel like we found a great place at a good price. He was a great pleasure to work with and we definitely plan on working with him again when we start the search for our next real estate adventure. read more

We found our realtor for all our house buying/selling needs! We met Greg a couple years ago when his buyers bought a house in our neighborhood. He came over to our house to give us an estimate of what our house might be worth should we decide to sell. While we were not ready to move forward, Greg checked in with us about 3-4 times a year to see how things were going...no pressure whatsoever!! He was very genuine in wanting to know us. In August of 2020, we decided to sell my condo ... what a great experience that was! He and his team handled everything ... from the repairs needed to some improvements, to cleaning, staging, photos and fielding multiple offers in record time. We ended up getting over 12% of our original agreed upon asking price. Fantastic communication through the entire process! Greg is amazing and we plan to have him sell our house when the time is right! You will not find a better person to help you with your real estate needs! read more

I have known Greg for years now and he is my go to guy for anything real estate related. He is straightforward and will go the extra mile to negotiate and get you the best deal possible while digging up off market opportunities as well. I highly recommend him as a real estate professional. read more

I'm not in the market quite yet, but when I'm ready to purchase a home I'm most definitely using Greg. We met through mutual friends and he was patient with the millions of questions I had and let me pick his brain about buying a home in SD. He was very knowledgeable about the market here and the trends that I should look out for. He listed off the steps I should take when I'm ready, and I'm looking forward to reconnecting with him to help! read more

Greg is such a hard worker. As a home inspector, I work with a lot of real estate agents. I can honestly say that Greg is one of the best out there! He's always going above and beyond for his clients and coworkers. I always look forward to working with Greg. Keep up the hard work Greg, and here's to our next inspection! read more

My fiance and I decided to use the GreenHouse Group after reading all the positive Yelp reviews. From the start, both Jeremy and Scott were efficient, courteous, and friendly whenever we had to talk to them about loans/mortgages/financing. It's never fun, but they made the experience as good as it could be. From there, we went over to the real estate side and worked with Jesse and Greg. Again, both gentlemen were engaging, professional, and quick to get back to our inquiries. We were first on the scene multiple times which definitely helped but I honestly don't think we would have gotten the home we did if it wasn't for their advice and fast actions. On Friday, we closed escrow and today we got the keys to our new home. In particular, Greg was always quick to respond to a text and was always able to get us to see a home the same day. He was available to lend tips and assistance whenever I asked him countless questions. Thanks again team, looking forward to working with you again down the road! read more

A friend referred me to the Green House Group a year ago. During that time, I think I ran the full range of real estate events - I lost one bid, backed out of one contract, and finally closed on the condo I wanted. Let me tell you, Greg (one of Jesse's stellar teammates) has the patience of a saint. No pressure when I said no to the 100th place we looked at, no judgement during my 7th freak out, only constant support to go the extra 4 miles to make sure I got the place I wanted. He really cared more about my getting the place I wanted than making the sale. No doubt. After I narrowed down my search, Greg called agents to see if anything was coming up for sale in the building I wanted and attended pitch sessions in the market region to make sure I wouldn't miss ANYTHING. I think I was the first potential buyer on the scene to see every home and condo I was interested in. Greg, can you meet me in an hour? Can we see it again at night, can we see it during the weekend when it might be noisy, can we knock on the neighbor's door to ask about it? Yes, yes, yes, yes! Greg handled every detail, answered every one of my insane questions, creatively negotiated contracts, assessed the market for reasonable offers, suggested ways to make my offer look better, you name it... in the year it took for me to be happy with buying something, Greg covered it for me. What can I say? I had EXTREMELY high expectations of the person that I was trusting to help me navigate the biggest purchase I will ever make and Greg met them every step of the way. read more

Mahalo nui Greg!! Out of state buyer, tight budget with an unrealistic deadline. Greg easily could've given up on us, but he didn't. He worked hard to find the perfect place in a location that wasn't even on our radar! Greg over delivered every step of the way and we can't begin to thank him enough. read more
