Prompt, polite , knowledgeable and hardworking. Very honest. He comes up with solutions for difficult decisions. I like someone who gives you possible alternatives. A sterling job on this purchase!
Mark has sold other properties for us over the years and continues to execute a flawless process from initial property analysis, preparation, staging and marketing. Mark has many strength but the primary for me is his absolute grasp of the marketplace, property value and pricing strategy. Class A professional and a job well done. I will continue to have Mark represent me with all future real estate transaction.
Mark was recommended to me, and after our initial in-person conversation I felt comfortable moving forward. The steps we'd need to take were laid out on paper and continually updated, which was extremely helpful. Mark was specific and direct - which is what I appreciate - as we went over what my place needed in order to be presented well. Being a first-time seller I never felt uncomfortable and was guided each step of the way. He also clearly explained his reasoning as we determined the asking price, and ultimately left room for me to decide based upon the info available. Mark was friendly without being "sales-y" , and if I was to transact again in the area I'd call on him without hesitation.
I hired Mark to sell two vacant lots and he did an outstanding job. He found a buyer for one of the lots even before it got listed. Both of the lots were sold within a very short period of time at or above the asking price. Mark is very professional and deals with challenging situations calmly. I whole heartedly recommend him. It's been a true pleasure working with him and I wish him the best of luck.

Right off Mark got to work. It was over two months before 2024 and for tax reasons I could not close before that. But Mark did not dilly dally. He jumped right in. Priced it at a fair and equitable price and contacted workmen he knew for bids. I preferred to leave upgrades to the new owners. I had already done major upgrades like dual pane windows throughout. He went ahead and readied for a quick sale. And it was!!! It is so much easier when you have an expert !!
Mark gets it done right and on time! He was diligent and professional, always making sure that my questions were answered. He presented all the facts so that I could make informed decisions. Mark has represented me as a seller and a buyer and always with professionalism! He exceeded my expectations, always making sure to keep me informed.
Mark has extensive background and expereince with the nuances of real estate transactions. He is organized and very thorough in his approach to what can seem like an overwhelming plethora of steps to take in the transaction...I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking to buy or sell a house...
Mark was patient as we got to know Santa Rosa and walked with me through dozens of houses as he learned what we wanted and needed. I never felt judged by the things I liked or didn’t like and found that I could speak honestly about what felt like it worked and didn’t. Mark was honest when we tried too hard to make things fit and held us to the core items we said were important. When he called and said we had to see a house I knew he wasn’t wasting our time… turns out it was our house!
Mark Spaulding is the epitome of community oriented care when buying a home. His knowledge and awareness of the market was helpful as new members of the community. He listened to our needs, observed our reactions to listings, and provided quality support. This was much needed after a traumatic experience with our first home purchase. He listened to our concerns and worked with us through every step. He is professional, responsive, and communicates well via all formats. His ability to keep the process confidential was key for us and I am so grateful that he saw me and my family as community members. Mark was excellent at walking us through each step and milestone, which led to buying our new home. He helped us set clear expectations about what we wanted, what we could afford, and the neighborhood to match our family’s needs. I appreciate the ways in which he worked with multiple parties to ensure a timely and swift closing. His humor is pleasant and was necessary during the process. I feel like we gained a neighbor, friend, and champion for our family!
Mark and his team simplified a huge daunting process of selling our home. They took the time to explain everything so we could understand it and we felt confident with our decisions. Through their timely communication, knowledge of the market in our area, and professionalism, they turned an otherwise stressful long process into a simplified and quick process.
Our family home of over 50 years had to be sold. Mark made the process as easy as possible and helped navigate unexpected challenges with knowledge, professionalism and sensitivity. His communication style is clear and honest, qualities that quickly earned our trust. The contacts he has available for inspections, labor, etc. contributed to an early close.
