Mark Spaulding

Mark helped us with the sale of our townhome in a very difficult marketplace. He was very knowledgable about the HOA and its history. It was really a team effort working with Mark. He listened to our ideas and if he thought there might be a better approach he wasn't afraid to point it out. We had two price reductions and Mark thoughtfully guided us through them. He was easy to communicate with and arrange face to face strategy meetings. With his expertise we were able to get this property sold in about ninety days, and in a very difficult condo/townhouse market. I would highly recommend Mark.

Mark couldn't have been more helpful "on the ground" in Sebastopol, meeting with us, advising us about specifics of the property we were considering and the purchase price. He provided helpful advice on a range of services available for post-purchase work addressing items in the inspection report. Every in-person interaction was friendly, helpful; we never felt rushed as he gave us as much of his time as we needed.

Mark Spaulding is on top of the local market location and price trends. He set up getting prepared for sale clearly with known, quality vendors, educating me with what would help to sell the property best and what was not needed. He often anticipated my questions and answered them clearly, responding quickly. He also took my thoughts into account when setting a price and a timeline. He negotiated well on my behalf and kept my information private. Mark is a professional gem and I would happily use him again.

This sale was a bit unusual since we were selling a home with an undeveloped lot next door. Mark met the challenge quite professionally, exposing the offerings first to many of the local real estate agents in the Bodega Bay area.

In preparing the home for sale over the course of six months, Mark provided thoughtful guidance throughout. He made referrals for inspections and improvements, suggested which improvements to prioritize, and made on-site observations of the progress. Mark's communications were timely, clear, and understanding. He was prepared to market the home very quickly after improvements were completed. He set reasonable expectations in discussing a list price using his expertise and research. The marketing materials were excellent and really helped to set the property apart from others on the market. You are in good hands with Mark.

Mark came highly recommended from a family member and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Due to divorce, we needed to sell our home of 20+ years quickly. Mark was so kind and caring and respectful during this process. His many years of experience shone through. From advertising, open houses, questions/concerns, negotiating, Mark helped us navigate through everything easily. We give Mark our sincerest gratitude for all his help.
