We had a great experience working with Marcus in selling our home and buying our new one. His knowledge of our local market really helped everything run smoothly. I would highly recommend him to family and friends.

We have had such a positive experience with Marcus. I only wish we had used him sooner. After taking our house off the market for 8 long and frustrating months, we decided to give Marcus a try. Only 3 days after listing, we got 2 offers, and one of them was for the asking price in full. We had smooth sailing from start to finish. Marcus is so knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend him!

We had our home on the market for 10 months with another very good realtor, whose 30+ years in the industry did not translate into getting our home sold for a multitude of reasons, a lot of which she had no control over. We brought in Marcus to assist our realtor as we believed we needed someone who really knew and appreciated the uniqueness of Laguna Beach. (Our realtor's background and experience were primarily in Newport Beach.) Marcus (who was born and raised in Laguna Beach and is now raising his own family in Laguna and is very involved in the community) brought to the table just what we needed. Not even 2 weeks after bringing Marcus on board, we had a buyer and not just an interested buyer, but one that withstood the test of time when we incurred significant damage to our deck from the series of rainstorms we had during that winter. Marcus's professionalism had a chance to reveal itself through his handling of a situation that could have "gone south" at any moment. Marcus's insight, understanding of people, his problem-solving skills, and energy are what always keep him ahead of the curve. And in the course of selling our home, Marcus's skills not only kept the buyers interested, but also are what eventually, I believe, sold our home. I would recommend Marcus in a heartbeat. His likability, knowledge base, deep understanding, and appreciation of Laguna, not to mention his resourcefulness, are unparalleled in a highly competitive industry such as real estate. You definitely can not go wrong in hiring Marcus if you want to buy or sell your home in Laguna Beach. He is a winner!

Honest, genuine, intelligent, capable, witty, and patient are some excellent descriptive words that come to mind. Marcus helped us find our dream home. He followed through on everything he promised and more. Marcus knows the local area and is entrenched in what is going on. If I could give Marcus 10+ stars, I would. We love Marcus! Thank you so much for all your hard work. Truly a man of integrity.

Marcus and his team led me through the sale of my rental in Laguna Niguel. After presenting an incredibly thorough market analysis, they had the listing up and running within a very short period of time. From there, they had open houses and obtained a cash buyer within a month of listing. From there, they were exceedingly patient with me, taking me through the escrow maze and seeing to it that there were a minimum of glitches. They were ahead of the curve in every circumstance, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell in South Orange County.

Very simply, Marcus is the best. Choosing him to represent me was one of the smartest things I’ve ever done. I relied on his expertise and trusted him throughout. He was always available to advise, answer questions, or tell me what I needed to hear when I was starting to stress, and as a result, I didn’t lose a moment of sleep. Which is saying something when you consider I was buying a $2,300,000 house! As many of the other reviews note, He knows Laguna, having grown up and raised a family here. He knows the homes and neighborhoods, having a long career in the local real estate industry. And he knows how to treat his clients with honesty and integrity. One thing I would like to add is the respect Marcus has earned in the real estate community. When I went out one weekend on my own to look at open houses, more than once, on telling the listing agent that Marcus was my guy, they said “Oh, you’re very lucky. He’s awesome,” or “Smart move, he’s top-shelf.” Soon after this, that respect made it that much easier to put a deal together, in what could have easily developed into very trying negotiations. I heard once that there may be close to eight hundred real estate agents in the Laguna area. Choose wisely. It makes a huge difference.
