Testimonials:
Let my clients speak for themselves...
"In a down market, Mark Griffin was able to gain us valuable exposure and provide us with several showings that were surprising in this economy. We had switched realtors and contracted with Mark because our previous realtor failed to provide results. Mark went above and beyond our expectations as a realtor, spending much of his time visiting with us, reviewing marketing ideas, providing feedback and helping us to feel encouraged and satisfied with all of his efforts. We would highly recommend Mark to anyone choosing to buy or sell a home. He works very hard and offers valuable resources and insight.
We ended up removing our home from the market due to a unanimous family decision to remain in our loving neighborhood. In fact, the day we made this decision, we still had another showing booked, which we needed to cancel! How is that for continued effort and service on Mark’s part?!
We know without a doubt, when we decide to relocate, we will use Mark Griffin. He is our #1 Realtor.

“Mark Griffin did a fantastic job marketing our home and getting it sold fast, especially in this difficult housing market. As a mortgage loan officer, I had a lot of Realtors to choose from, but the decision wasn’t difficult as I knew I could count on Mark. Mark did everything he said he would and more not only to make sure we were taken care of but also the buyer so when we got to closing, it was a fun event for everyone. “

"Mark,
I just wanted to thank you personally for your time and commitment during our house hunt. Your expertise during this period has been an eye opener. You have the patience and the support we are looking for. The plethora of knowledge we have learned from your experience will never be forgotten, we just wanted to let you know.
Sincerely

"...Thank you to all your associates from rescuing me from a would be nightmare. So many thanks to everyone, from Brian at PPI, to Tim Eagen and crew at National City Mortgage...and especially the magic of Mark Griffin. Having met such caring and kind people during my experience, is even more satisfying than the home I purchased. Please realize the positive effect I am certain you must have on everyone who crosses your path and take pride in knowing all the lives you have improved, especially for those of us rookies who are trying to find their way in the Real Estate world."

"I was not new to the home selling game, this was my fourth home, so I was pretty particular about whom I wanted for an agent. I had bought and sold in all three types of markets: sellers, buyers and normal, so I wanted someone who knew what they were doing and who would be honest with me. That was Mark Griffin. I had already worked with him once when I was guiding a family member in buying her first home. Mark was honest, patient and upfront with us, never demeaning or patronizing, always informative, and helped negotiate a great deal for both her and the seller.
Working with him on the flip side, as the seller, I found him to be just as dependable, informative and helpful. Selling a condo in today's market takes more than just putting a sign in the front yard, and Mark had lots of creative ideas on how to best market my home in a difficult market. Experience pays off in selling a home, particularly in a more difficult market. He was even there, after the closing when some last minute details came up. If you want someone you can count on, who will give you the information you need and who will be there for you all the way through the sale, Mark is the agent you have been looking for.
If you just want a sign in your front yard or if you just want to see a parade of homes, call someone else. But if you want to sell or buy a home from experience, I recommend Mark, twice, as a buyer and a seller."

"When we bought our house we were dealing with difficult sellers. Mark Griffin brought to the table a combination of high ethical standards and street smarts. Both were invaluable. His flexibility in working with our schedule was also greatly appreciated."

"There's been a few small fires that you've put out quickly and I really appreciate that. I hope your seller knows how well you represented her. Thank you for all of your work; especially the furnace situation. Your honesty and diligence were impressive; I don't think I expressed that enough to you. I'll tell my buyers to leave the lock box in the door for you to pick up at the end of the week. Thanks!"

"
Mark was great to work with. I went in knowing literally nothing about buying a house, from how getting a mortgage worked to searching for homes to figuring out what I could afford. Every step of the way he was able to explain what was going on, kept me knowing what the next steps were and what we still needed to do, and was available any time I had questions.
He's very experienced and easy to work with, and I owe a great home (for a great price) to him."
