About Us

Watkins Realty Group serves clients throughout San Diego and Southern California with exemplary real estate, mortgage, and investment services.

Hello and Welcome!

I’m Kate Astor, a real estate agent, investor, and strategic problem solver.

For over a decade, I’ve navigated the real estate market as both a buyer and seller, acquiring, renting, and managing properties for personal and business ventures. Earning my real estate license was a natural next step—one that allows me to bring my expertise, market insight, and negotiation skills directly to my clients. I look forward to guiding you through your unique real estate journey.

Beyond real estate, my background is rooted in high-tech. I hold a degree in Computer Science, a Project Management Professional (PMP) certification, and a Customer Experience certificate. I've worked across multiple industries and technologies, most recently managing budgets and overseeing a top-tier data program for a Fortune 5 company. My expertise in analytics, negotiation, and data-driven decision-making gives me a distinct edge in real estate—ensuring precision, strategy, and maximum value for my clients.

San Diego is more than just a place to live—it’s a lifestyle. From its breathtaking coastline to its diverse microclimates, I love exploring every unique corner of this incredible city. Meeting new people, discovering hidden gems, and staying ahead of market trends are all part of what fuels my passion for real estate.
