Mariana Castro, Real Estate Agent

As a founder and principal of KC Homes Group, we had the common goal to provide all-encompassing concierge service in Real Estate. Our services don't start or end on the dotted line, we know quality service is not a single agent but a team of professionals and partners who strive to serve the right way,

I am originally from Argentina, I lived in England, Hawaii, Australia and New York, now I call Kansas City my forever home. My love for business and buildings came from my family. When I was 6 years old I was eager to go on meetings with architects, and spend time on the job site with endless questions to carpenters. Learning dimensions and clearances, material selection, insulation and moisture control, I absorbed it all. Fun Sundays were spent looking at architecture with my family.

My professional career started from marketing and events, to working as a nanny and even as a painter when I moved to Hawaii after finishing college. Quickly ended up managing businesses for large investors, from vacation rentals to developing and managing luxury homes and retreats. I designed and remodeled over 20,000 SF, helped develop a Spa, a lab and even marketed and sold skin care.

Opportunities moved me to New York where I worked in media, marketing and events in the sport of polo for 7 years, with some design, building and Real Estate projects on the side. With the team I led, we brought in large crowds envied around the world and achieved over 100,000 million organic impressions in media on our first year.

I worked alongside lead marketing experts at Tesla, Audi, Veuve Clicquot, Hublot and many other premiere international brands who I brought in as clients.

I fell in love with Kansas City, its architecture, boulevards and wonderful people in 2012. I was able to move here in 2019 where I continue to work helping people buy and sell homes, with fun design projects that come my way.

"Must start by saying this is not my first time working with Mariana. She helped us sell our primary residence and now helps us with our investment properties. For her there are no stupid questions and she is always available to explain/give suggestions on something. Mariana is extremely knowledgeable in several areas of real estate and can help with anything from understanding the finances to selling/renting to the best improvements return for your money to actually renting the property in this case. She walked through the property, made a design plan ( that we approved) and managed all the contractors, inspecting everything to make sure it was done correctly and timely. Working with her was a breeze as she is always on top of things. I would say that being so experienced and dedicated allows her to be ready for what you want/need for your real estate property even before you ask."

"Working with Mariana was amazing. As first time home buyers we had no idea what to expect, especially in the current market. With Mariana’s help we were fortunate to find a home fast! She guided us through every step of the process. We bought a home under the asking price… a couple requests were submitted to the seller. With Mariana’s fantastic communication we were able to have everything we asked for completed. She has a great eye for the “possibilities” of your new home and isn’t just a dreamer… she makes it happen!! So thankful for all her help and guidance along the way. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to buy or sell, or both!" - Emily W.

"Mariana Castro proved herself to be an excellent real estate professional, over the the last two months, when she assisted me in the sale of one of my investment properties in Kansas City. I have dealt with a very wide selection of Agents in the past buying and selling different personnel homes and investments. I went to Kansas City to sell one of my rental investments. I found Mariana after a long investigative search and asked her opinion of the property and what she thought I could do to it to make it ready for sale. Her direct answers and creative ideas clearly demonstrated understanding the local market. We created a marketing plan and I signed with her company. I return to my residence (800 miles away) communicating via email, telephones and WhatsApp and all of my questions and requests were quickly responded to with complete and well throughout instructions to move the project forward. The house went up for sale and before the weekend was over we had a signed contract on the property. Mariana negotiate the selling price and the terms and presented the contract it was totally acceptable and I signed--great job. The closing date had been set and we were ready. I would work with Mariana with no hesitation again!" Chris S.
