About John

I have been a resident of Marin County for over 50 years and have lived in Mill Valley, Strawberry, Sausalito, and Tiburon. Currently I live in San Rafael with my daughter and wife who is also a real estate agent. After growing up in Mill Valley and attending both Marin Academy and Tamalpais High School I turned 18 and spent 8 months travelling around the world while working odd jobs along the way. I then graduated from University of California at Santa Barbara and executed my first real estate transaction over 17 years ago. I have passion for real estate and have extensive knowledge of the industry and current market trends. I have a sharp eye for detail, accuracy, and design while having the business skills to move forward. Over the years I have purchased several income properties while conducting many of my own property management duties. This experience has helped to assemble a list of professional trade people such as stagers, contractors, painters, landscapers and movers. All of which can help my sellers achieve the highest value on their home. I am also a member of the National, California, and Marin Association of Realtors. When not working with clients I am most likely with my family and friends or riding my mountain bike. I also enjoy exploring which seems appropriate as I am a descendant of William Clark from the Lewis and Clark expedition. I spend time gardening, hiking, and hold a CSW (Certified Specialist of Wine) certification. It is my mission to conduct business with the highest level of professionalism, integrity and enthusiasm. I will represent your best interests and make sure you have everything you need for a positive home buying or selling experience.

John went above and beyond for my family and I. He made the entire process easy to understand, explained everything, stood with us from the very beginning to the very end. John and his crew did an amazing job! I would recommend him and his team to anyone needing any kind of help with real estate. He is knowledgeable, lots of experience, patient, kind, honest, communicates well, and hard working. Thanks John!

We recently sold our condo with John's help. We decided to list our property with him because he had sold multiple units in the area, and we are so glad we did. Even though, we are in a sellers market, Jhon did a lot of work off front to be well prepared for the showing. As result, we had multiple strong offers the first day. Selling our house was difficult because of the sentimental attachment, but John's easy going and nice personality made the process easier.

John is an amazing real estate agent and we could not have asked a better agent for our first home. His research in the field is outstanding which helped us to make an informed decision while making the biggest purchase of our life. We were looking for a house for our boys and John knew exactly what we were looking for. Every suggestion he made was based on data and not on speculation. I really appreciate his honesty and only providing the factual information. He is very responsive and is only a call or text away. The nervousness we had on buying the first house started disappearing as we started communicating with John. I would highly recommend John to everyone. He's a true professional and a great person to work with.

I had an OUTSTANDING time selling my condo and looking for new homes with John Clark. From the very beginning, he worked tirelessly to help me prep my place for sale, finding me local staging consultants, house painters, photographers, and movers he has worked with many times. He's got a great "posse" behind him! He's a lifelong Marin county local and knows every nook and cranny of the county, and is cognizant of what's going on with changes in local laws, taxes, and upcoming construction projects. John's a great active listener, but I also thoroughly enjoyed hearing his stories about growing up in Marin, being a realtor, and being a real estate investor himself. I feel like a got a Ph.D. in real estate by working with him. Would give him 6 stars if I could.

We just bought our first home with John's help! Being first time home buyers, we were nervous, didn't know what to expect, and had lots of questions. John made himself available on short notices to see homes we were interested in right away. He knew what to look for (potential issues in a house), pointing out things as we walked around. It is a really competitive market, but with John's help we were able to get our first offer accepted and we feel very good that we didn't overpay, but we chose the house and budget that made the most sense for us. We went into escrow at a very crazy busy time with a Hawaii vacation that was already planned beginning before the second week of escrow. John was so easy to work with and went above and beyond to make sure that everything went smoothly and we closed on time. He went to the house to over see the chimney and pest inspections since we couldn't be there but we were at peace knowing that he was at the house and would alert us of any issues. We can not thank him enough for getting us into our home and making the process so smooth. Thank you John!

John managed a successful home purchase for us...

John managed a successful home purchase for us! he worked with us to identify the specific area and unit layout that we wanted, and when a matching property came up, he presented a preemptive bid to the seller. Pitching us as serious buyers who would close quickly, he obtained acceptance before the first open house. John was patient, responsive, and tactical throughout our search, the offer, and escrow process. He respected our objectives and conscientiously represented our interests. He also worked well with other parties to the transaction: listing agent, HOA, contractors, escrow staff; his friendly, low-keyed manner helped smooth over the tensions that are unavoidable in such a major transaction. Thank you, John.
