- Wyatt Hook

We highly recommend Mark as a realtor. He brought a calm, confident presence that immediately put us at ease. He took time to engage with our kids, never rushed or pressured us, and always let us set the pace. Mark’s experience came through in every answer and interaction. He was consistently available when we needed him and somehow made the typically stressful process of buying and selling a home feel seamless. We’ve worked with other realtors before, but Mark is in a league of his own. He knows the market inside and out, communicates with complete honesty, and made us feel fully supported every step of the way. We’re not just satisfied, we’re lifelong clients. We’d recommend him without hesitation.

Mark was amazing to deal with. Not only does he have everything you could ever want in an agent (professionalism, knowledge and communication), he’s an all around genuine kind person. From the initial meeting I knew we found the right person to work with. He shows up on time, prepared and offers insights into the neighbourhood, house value and interior design. Buying a home in such a competitive market was stressful but with marks guidance we felt more at ease and confident in our decisions. I felt mark went above and beyond from start to finish. and we’re incredibly grateful for his help in this major life decision. I would highly recommend him to everyone and we would definitely go to him for a purchase or to sell.

So, this may be viewed as biased- because Mark is my brother. But, you should know, I’ve been a real estate agent, investor and developer - so I’ve worked with hundreds of agents and sold many properties in my day. I can say with full confidence that on both the buying of our dream home and the sale of our existing home, I have not worked with a more conscientious and caring real estate agent. Because we bought our new home first, the sale of our existing home was a must. We thought the market was hotter than it was. Mark educated us and then advised us on what the best approach would be. While 9/10 homes are sitting and doing price reductions we sold our house in 8 days (an offer in 2 days). He negotiated a great deal (on both buy and sale). He never took the easy path (sending texts when a call was needed) He actually held the open house (which brought in the buyer) He helped us stage the house and helped us think about the best way to market it. The common thought of agents making a lot of money for doing little- is something I have experienced in previous transactions. With Mark, the value he created on both sides of the transaction exceeded the fees. I have referred family and friends to Mark and each person has told me the same thing- your brother is amazing! I am confident you will have a wonderful experience if you decide to trust Mark to help you buy or sell.

 "We reached out to Mark based on a recommendation from a family member who recently sold and purchased with him. Not only was Mark exceptionally responsive and helpful with deciding to list the property, he helped us find tradespeople to speed our renovation project along. Because of his help, we were able to list 2-3 weeks sooner than expected. Mark is friendly, professional, and very easy to chat with, we always felt like a priority. He replied to every call, text, and email regardless of the time of day. His professional experience and knowledge of the Calgary market allowed us to list and sell our home within 48 hours at a very satisfying price. We truly appreciate our experience with Mark and highly recommend him for the sale or purchase of your home."

Mark was fantastic to work with through the entire process of purchasing my first home. I worked incredibly hard to be able to be in a position to finally buy a house and Mark took this to heart. He wanted me to be happy and feel I received good value through the purchase I ended up making. Mark was thoughtful and patient and didn't pressure me into making a decision. The process was far less stressful than I anticipated and that was because Mark was so organized and available throughout the process. The closing process was simple because Mark is an experienced and established agent in the Calgary area so he had plenty of contacts and other people and services he was able to refer me to through the closing process. I would recommend Mark to anyone purchasing or selling a home. His commitment is second to none, he has a great personality, and incredibly professional. I knew Mark was a fantastic agent when he took me to view the first property, he opened the door, and ensured my partner and I entered the home first. I thought this was very professional, and respectful and demonstrated how much he cared about our experience. Mark is great, you will not be disappointed working with him!

Mark recently helped us find and purchase our long term family home and sell our starter house. His negotiation skills and strategy help us get an excellent purchase price without going back and forth too much and missing out. Marks advice and recommendations on the sale helped us get above asking and conditionally sold within 24 hours of listing. Marks guided us through the purchase (with sale condition) and sale process and made it seamless despite some of the risks and stress. We couldn't be happier with the outcome!

Mark made selling our home an absolute dream- throughout the process he was attentive, and always answered any questions or concerns we had. He went out of his way to help us purchase a home in a different city, and provided us with thorough information about the market. He conducts himself very professionally, and always puts his clients first- his knowledge about the market allowed us to sell our house within a day, for a price we were incredibly happy with. This is our second time working with Mark, and I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you Mark for helping us find our dream home, and making it a reality!

Mark has been a breath of fresh air in the real estate world. We found him via local advertising in our neighbourhood. Right from the moment we contacted him and let him know our interest to purchase, he just sent us the appropriate automated emails for updates in our area and didnt “pursue” us w phone calls or extra emails but rather waited for us to contact him. Mark not only is extremely professional and knowledgeable but has an extremely affable nature making him so easy to talk to on all levels. He represented us very well in our house sale and as well has given us much of his time in meetings and very comprehensive emails. Mark in my opinion is one of the top realtors if not the very top! And I speak w a bit of history w my own mother being a successful broker some years ago. Mark thank you! Don’t change a thing!!!😁👍 We highly recommend Mark and will use him in all future real estate endeavours 🥇

My wife and I could not be happier with the service that Mark provided to us. We were referred to him by a friend in Calgary. We are moving from Vancouver to Calgary and with little knowledge of the area, Mark provided a ton of information and insight to us. What we appreciated most was his communication style. From the moment we reached out to him to the time we had an offer accepted on our property he was always available for questions and responded to us very quickly. This made our home buying experience easier to navigate. Overall we highly recommend Mark

Mark has supported me through three transactions in Calgary as I've moved in and out of the city for work, and each time I've been impressed with Mark's professionalism and client focus. On this most recent purchase, he helped me successfully navigate through a hot housing market and I'm extremely happy with the property. I would highly recommend Mark to anyone who is looking to either buy or sell a home.

My girlfriend and I began our home search with an initial phone call from Mark one Sunday afternoon. Less than two weeks later, we had closed on our first home purchase. What made working with Mark so fantastic is that we always felt that he had time for us. Time to show us a property, time to answer any of our questions, and time to keep us updated on property listings. Not only did Mark make the time for us, but he also shared his incredible wealth of knowledge about the market, price trends, and sales negotiations that allowed us to have our offer accepted less than two weeks since our search began. Mark was a pivotal player in getting us our dream first home and we cannot recommend him enough. Thank you Mark!
