I’m Catherine Montanez, a licensed Realtor® with the Lepe Tendwell Group, brokered by eXp Realty of California, Inc., proudly serving San Diego County and Southwest Riverside County. I work alongside my son, Juan Montanez, who is also a licensed Realtor® and serves as my team lead. Together, we’re a dedicated mother-and-son Realtor® team committed to helping families and individuals navigate the home buying and selling process with care, professionalism, and trust. We bring strong negotiation skills, attention to detail, and a client-first mindset to every transaction. We’re here to support you throughout the entire home-buying and selling journey. Trying to do it all on your own can be overwhelming—we’ll help you find homes within your budget, connect with buyers, manage paperwork, and more. Our commitment to client care doesn’t end when the sale is complete. We continue to serve your best interests long after closing. In today’s ever-changing market, we believe our clients deserve the most accurate, up-to-date information to make confident and informed decisions every step of the way. Through our trusted national referral agent network, we can also assist clients anywhere in the United States.
