Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Our experience with Vantress Real Estate has been INCREDIBLE! As first time home buyers, we were very nervous entering the real estate market, but Mark held our hand throughout the entire process. The minute you meet Mark, you will instantly feel calm, relaxed, and like you’re taking to an old friend. He knows the ins and outs of the market better than anyone as he studies it and monitors it extremely closely, so we knew we could leave it to him to find our dream home. And sure enough, he did! Our experience with Vantress Real Estate didn’t end there though. Mark negotiated on our behalf, always coming back to us and referencing comps in the neighborhood and other statistics. This made us feel so confident in our offers because we knew Mark had done extensive research and was advising us about what would “get it done”. Mark even talked us o…

This made us feel so confident in our offers because we knew Mark had done extensive research and was advising us about what would “get it done”. Mark even talked us out of paying too much for the property! We are so thankful for Mark’s levelheadedness as we would’ve spent way too much otherwise due to our excitement over the home. After we got our house, Mark ensured that we were happy with it by recommending different tradespeople to help with the small jobs that needed to be done. We are so happy with how everything turned out! Thanks to Mark, we were able to get into our dream neighborhood, on our dream street, and now into our dream home! We cannot recommend Mark enough. We rave about him to literally everyone we know who is buying or selling a property. He is an all around amazing person, and we know you will have a fantastic experience with him too!

Professionalism, Responsiveness. Mark was an absolute dream to work with! My partner and I were first-time homebuyers venturing into the world of real estate in the middle of the pandemic. Because open houses aren’t an option anymore these days, we had to interact with our fair share of realtors who were pushy when we just didn’t know what we were looking for yet. Mark definitely stood out from that crowd when we met him - he understood that buying a home was a huge commitment and let us explore the market with his guidance and no added pressure. When we finally narrowed in on the areas and criteria for our first home, Mark scheduled and walked us through an obscene amount of properties seamlessly. He stuck patiently with us through grueling summer weekends when the temperatures were past 100 degrees and the air was thick with smoke from the wildfires. When we finally found the house for…

He stuck patiently with us through grueling summer weekends when the temperatures were past 100 degrees and the air was thick with smoke from the wildfires. When we finally found the house for us, Mark took extra steps in prepping us for the offer-writing process so it didn’t feel as overwhelming when the rubber hit the road. He used his professional connections to help us write a competitive offer that sealed the deal with no prolonged drama. I highly recommend choosing Mark as your realtor. He’s kind, knowledgable, and responsive. It was a delight working with him and we could not be more satisfied with our new home. Thanks so much Mark!

Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness. Mark provides top-notch service and is incredibly professional and proactive! He is an excellent listener and quickly honed in on exactly what we wanted, helping us wade through voluminous details to find our dream home. He efficiently arranged consultations with various experts to make sure all our questions were answered and his communication and availability were absolutely outstanding during every phase of the process. Mark is also excellent at kindly and positively involving the whole family in the home search process. A highlight for us was when our kiddos were concerned about the stability of an above the garage gym floor and he suggested we all jump together to test it out - a moment of total joy with the kids! Mark made everything extremely easy for us and we highly recommend him!

Biotech Manager

I had the pleasure of working with Mark for the purchase of my first home. From the very beginning, he was focused on my priorities and worked at my pace. He advocated for me every step of the way, keeping me informed and confident throughout the entire process - and negotiated over 10% off the listing price with favorable terms. I would highly recommend working with Mark to anyone buying or selling a home. You’ll be grateful you did!

I have worked with many people of various capacities in my career, but Mark always impresses me as a true professional. He carries out his job sincerely and with dedication as he dedicates himself to his own artwork. You can instantly tell he is honest and very personable and easy to work with. At the same time, he is reliable in the team environment. It is very rare nowadays to find someone like him who is a great colleague at work and a friend in life. I miss working him.

Mark is someone I would not hesitate to ask for help because no matter what the request is, I know he will come through for a friend in need.
