About Mark
For over 19 years I have established a reputation for consistency through my unique ability to manage my clients' expectations and emotions. Real estate is not a simple business, and ours is not always an easy market to navigate. I have been in this industry for a long time and weathered several downturns. If there is one defining lesson I’ve learned, it is that you must maintain your ability to adapt. All the market analysis and negotiation prowess in the world mean nothing if you are not prepared to pivot, to think on your feet and create solutions around inevitable challenges.
The western suburbs of Chicago have always been a part of me. I grew up in Western Springs. Throughout the years, I've witnessed firsthand as this area expanded and flourished. It's more than the architecture. It goes beyond the school systems. It exists in the warmth and welcoming nature of the people.
Before I began my career as a professional real estate agent, I spent more than a decade working for the Building Operations Department of the United Center. It was my responsibility to help convert the famous venue for various events, and keep the building in "show ready" condition for the millions of fans who came through its doors annually. It was there that I learned the ins and outs of construction, and how to not only set realistic client expectations, but how to exceed them.
From my multi-platform marketing approach, to a meticulous home staging process, to my network of industry-leading photographers, lenders, and attorneys — I will offer you solutions. Long after we’ve left the closing table, I want you to feel as if you've had an experience, and gained both a friend and a professional resource for life.

Mark was knowledgeable and patient with us throughout the entire homebuying process. We were moving from out of state, and Mark was accommodative to our schedule every time we came into town. Look no further if you are searching for a new home!

Mark helped us both find a new home and sell our old one and did a fantastic job on both ends. He was knowledgeable, reassuring and clearly in tune with the local real estate market. We also used several of his recommendations for cleaning services, movers and some workers for our new house and all have been good. If you’re looking for a consummate professional to do right by you and your family, Mark is your guy.

Mark first helped us find a rental unit that met our specific needs at no benefit to him so we were happy to return to him when we were shopping for houses. He provided great expertise and made us feel comfortable every step of the way to finding the right house for us, would recommend to anyone!
