Peter Mac, a member of The Agency in Beverly Hills, launched his real estate career in his native Copenhagen, Denmark over 10 years ago with the opening of his brokerage. He has since established himself as an internationally adept expert on all facets of the market, particularly high-end investment properties. Locally, Peter helped sell The Pali House hotel in West Hollywood and has spec homes in the works in some of LA’s most coveted neighborhoods. Peter’s vast global network includes client relationships he has cultivated throughout the United States and Europe.
Holding a master's in Finance and Economics from the University of Copenhagen Business School, Peter has a keen awareness of the unique benefits and nuances of real estate investment and development. “Real estate in Los Angeles is very interesting to me—there’s so many styles of architecture, so much exciting variety,” says Peter. “And compared to Copenhagen, the market here is much more complex. Honestly, I love the challenge of it and feel right at home here.”
Peter is known for his tireless work ethic, straightforward communication style, and ability to conceptualize unique marketing strategies and build strong relationships with high-net-worth clients, both locally and abroad. Before becoming an agent, Peter was a professional tennis player but was sidelined by an ACL injury. “My present-day work ethic is very much influenced by the preparation and dedication it took to compete in tennis at such a high level,” says Peter. “As I pursue the goals of my clients, I often tap into the perseverance and focus that led me to victory during my days on the court.” In his free time, Peter stays active with casual tennis games, golf, and skiing. He also is a member of the Wilshire Country Club, which raises funds for local student scholarships.
Peter has been an exceptional adviser to me and my family, on both the buy side and sells side. He knows the markets and properties but also is an excellent negotiator.

Working with Peter was so easy and he handled everything to perfection. We have no complaints and are so happy with our new home. His assistant Shannon was also amazing.
— Buyer
Peter was great. Supportive and helpful and a fantastic negotiator. Got us the house we wanted at a price less than the top of our budget. A good partner in what can be a complicated transaction.
— Buyer
Peter was aware of my timeline and put together a deal that no other agent would even consider. His efforts and follow through were life saving. This is an agent that does what he says. One in a million!
— Michael W.
Shannon was great: she is knowledgeable, thorough, responsive and a good listener. She never put pressure on us and only kept our best interests in mind. If you are looking for housing in LA, hit her up!
— Ross H.
Peter helped me find my home after meeting me at another show. He found me the perfect home and helped me get a great deal and successfully close. Very grateful for his help throughout the entire process.
— Matt
Shannon was amazing throughout the whole first time home owner/buying process. She got answers to all my questions. Very professional and responsive throughout the whole process. Reassured me and advocated for me. Highly recommend!
— Justin Z.
Shannon is such a professional, while also remaining very personable. She came highly recommended and it was a pleasure working with her. She was quick to respond and made the deal happen so smoothly. I would highly recommend her, as well as use her again for all my future real estate needs.

Peter is extremely knowledgeable about the market and provides great value when going through the process of finding a home. He has been a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. Could not recommend him enough. His assistant Shannon “shay” is also extremely responsive and helpful. Thank you Peter!
— Buyer
Peter and his team were great to work with. As first time buyers, his knowledge of the whole process was essential and a big stress reliever. He kept us informed of progress and what to expect throughout. His guidance on the sales price helped us win the property in a multiple bidder situation- but most importantly, left us feeling like we got a great deal for a great house! Thanks for everything, Peter.
— Oliver S.
It was an absolute pleasure working with Kyle! He was extremely assertive, responsive and understanding on exactly what my husband and I were looking for. He was determined to find us the perfect house, within our budget and in the time frame we needed. He also negotiated back and forth with the sellers to ensure that we were getting the best possible deal! We would 100% recommend him to our friends and family!
— Molly C.
Shannon generated multiple offers within 5 days of being on the market! She is extremely knowledgeable and savvy of the different trends which led to a successful sale. She continued to exceed our expectations throughout the escrow process. She was very thorough and always available to answer any questions or concerns we had. Her experience and knowledge truly shined in every way. We would highly recommend her to any and everyone we know.
— Jon M.
Peter’s attention to detail is second to none. Not only was he incredibly laser-focused on our needs, but he listened and found us a home outside of my original scope with forward-thinking knowledge of neighborhood and value. Peter’s market knowledge and industry wherewithal allowed us to access more properties than we ever could have imagined. He found us forever home and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a kind, hard-working, legend-in-the-making.
— Jay P.
Peter was referred to me by one of my coworkers who also purchased her first home through Peter. Peter knows the area really well and excels at locating good deals. As first time home buyer, Peter walked me through the transaction from A to Z and made the process totally straight forward and stress free. Peter always stays on top of everything and is always available whenever and wherever. I would definitely go back to him again for my next and all future real estate purchases and sales.
— Buyer
Peter is an amazing agent. He has intimate knowledge of the market in the most competitive neighborhoods of Los Angeles, especially Beverly Hills, WeHo, and Hollywood Hills. He represented us as buyers and was able to negotiate an amazing deal on a fabulous property. We hit several speed bumps with our mortgage lender (out of our control) and Peter was adept at working with the lender and sellers' agent to smooth things out. I have recommended Peter to several people and will continue to do so!
— Graham L.
Shannon displays great knowledge and passion for what she does. She personally guided us to find the best home in the best area. We were extremely picky but she truly listened to all of our wants and needs and worked within our budget while never making us feel pressured into something out of our range. She cares deeply and has an immense amount of patience. She went above and beyond in every way and was still just as available after closing as she was before. We highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.
— Jesica L.
Shannon Vital is a pleasure to do business with and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for an enjoyable and stress free experience when in the market for a new home. She is super knowledgeable about the market and narrowing down just about everything on my list of what I was looking for in a home. She fights hard for her clients and makes the closing process seamless. I've already put Shannon in touch with friends looking to re-locate and will definitely be using her expertise for future real estate endeavors!
— Buyer
Peter is hands down the best real estate agent, I've had the pleasure to work with. He understands the greater Los Angeles market, in particular, the Hollywood Hills area, and takes time to understand your wants and needs in finding your dream home. What separates him from the competition is his work ethic, tenacity, and relationship-building with you as the client and his fellow agents in the market. I've recommended him to friends and co-workers where he successfully found their dream home within a short period of time. If you are looking for a first-class experience, that will get the job done and leave you smiling, Peter and Mac Realty is for you!
— Mari C.
Shannon was an absolute joy to work with! She was easily reachable whenever we had a question or concern and was knowledgeable and very helpful throughout the entire process. She understood exactly what we were looking for and helped us find the perfect fit surprisingliy quickly without ever pushing us. When we had to move back to the east coat a few years later, Shannon helped us again to sell the house. She helped made each experience run as smoothly as we could have ever hoped. It is evident that Shannon genuinely cares for her clients as she truly went above and beyond for us. If we ever move back to LA. I would never go to another agent! Very h...

I had a great experience working with Shannon, she represented me in the sale of my home while I was currently living out of state. She previously handled the lease of my home when I first moved so when it came time to sell I had no hesitation in hiring her again. She immediately took initiative in preparing my home for sale and exhibited an innate sense of kindness and patience in teaching me the intricacies of selling my property. I would highly recommend her when it comes to needing a realtor who is sensitive, caring, and exhibits a professionalism and sophistication. My home sold fairly quickly, the process was painless and a great learning expe...

Candace represented me on the buyer side as I was searching for my dream home, something I had envisioned for years and knowing exactly what I was looking for. When the perfect home was found, Candace initiated a showing the following day, and by days end we had a formal offer presented. She was able to negotiate a fair price in an extremely competitive market and we had an accepted offer in less than 24 hours. She was consistently in contact with me throughout the entire closing process and took all of the burdens off of me in a hectic Q4 close at my own company. Everything was so smooth that we actually closed our escrow a week early and couldn’t ...

Peter helped us navigate an extremely turbulent market this spring. We made our first offer prior to covid-19 shutdowns, and during the entire process, we were hamstrung by delays stemming from the pandemic. Throughout it all, he was a consummate professional, kept us apprised of developments on all sides, and worked tirelessly to get us the best value. In the face of tremendous adversity, lenders who kept changing their policies, a seller who became extremely impatient, and a buyer who admittedly was indecisive at times, Peter and his team pushed through and made the deal happen. We are super grateful for his expertise and steady counsel and look f...

Candace is amazing! She helped find and close our house and made everything happen in record time with constant updates. She helped us find a great lender and went to bat for us on our contract our and brought in the best people for inspections. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking for property and will definitely work with her again in the future.
