MEET JOHN
Hello! I’ve been a familiar face in San Diego real estate for almost 30 years. I’m the developer who built two stunning homes in Mission Hills, as well as the sleek Cairo condominiums in Hillcrest. I’ve also attracted national attention as the owner and “star personality” at Meshuggah Shack, the quirky coffee bar in Mission Hills.
Hoping to find the home of your dreams? I’m here to help you with every step of the process and make it as smooth as possible.
Ready to sell your home and move on to the next chapter? I can bring you the most qualified buyers and sell your home at the top price.
CLIENT REVIEWS
We recommend John Bertsch with no hesitation. He is a very knowledgeable, experienced and professional realtor who, due to our circumstances, took on a lot of work to sell our property. Readily available to answer questions and always a pleasure to speak to. Thank you John.
Craig Guillou
John Bertsch was a tremendous help to ne in selling my home. He has a wealth of knowledge and experience that I relied on. He knew contractors to help me get the property ready for showing. John was very attentive and responsive, and so pleasant to communicate with. I would hire John Bertsch again and recommend him whole heartedly.
