Exceptional Properties for Exceptional Clients

Mary MacGyver is the founder of The MacGyver Group and a Sales Agent with Coastal Connection Real Estate — built on one simple but powerful premise: when you hire Mary, you get Mary.

With over a decade of experience, Mary has built a reputation as an industry powerhouse who brings something rare to the table — genuine warmth, razor-sharp market knowledge, and an unwavering commitment to personalized service. She puts clients at ease from the very first conversation and guides them seamlessly through every stage of their transaction, from finding the right mortgage broker to coordinating a moving company.

By choice, Mary works with a select number of buyers and sellers each year. She doesn't delegate showings to assistants or hand off marketing to a team. Every client receives her full, undivided attention — and the results speak for themselves. Mary consistently achieves record prices per square foot and has earned a loyal following of repeat clients who trust her completely.

Her edge comes from a rich and unconventional background. Before real estate, Mary was a founding member and publicist of Jazzercise, and later served as Director of Development and Marketing for several national non-profits. That foundation in storytelling, strategy, and human connection informs everything she does — including her sophisticated approach to staging, marketing, and negotiation.

Highly intuitive, deeply organized, and results-driven, Mary brings a trained eye for design and a marketer's instinct to every listing and search.

Born and raised in Redondo Beach, Mary spent much of her adult life in Santa Monica and Westwood before relocating to Santa Fe, New Mexico, where she launched her real estate career in Albuquerque and owned Five Star Estate Sales. She brought her expertise to California's Central Coast in early 2024 — and her clients here are already reaping the rewards.
