We recently worked with Mark when purchasing an investment property and were impressed with his service. His communication was excellent, keeping us well informed and ensuring a smooth flow of information between ourselves and the vendor. He went above and beyond, making the transition seamless. We would not hesitate to recommend Mark to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive real estate agent.
Mark was communicative and agile, always keeping in contact throughout the process. He consistently answered the phone whenever we had questions, which gave us confidence and made our first home buying experience a smooth and enjoyable one. Mark is incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and approachable. We are very grateful for his support and will definitely be recommending his services to our friends and family.
From the outset, I felt comfortable working with Mark. He took the time to explain what was happening and guided me through the process without any pressure. He was knowledgeable and professional, and he kept me updated on each step of the process. When an unusual situation arose that was new to Mark, he admitted it and didn't try to convince me otherwise. Mark went the extra mile (literally) on a couple of occasions and that was really appreciated. His guidance throughout the process was clear and fair - something I appreciated. He was always available when I had questions, and he treated me respectfully. I have no hesitation in recommending Mark to others.
Mark made everything so easy for me he went out his way to assist me whatever it was .I am so gratefull for all he has done for me .
As a nervous buyer, I can’t thank Mark enough for the support and guidance he provided throughout the entire process. He went above and beyond to answer every question I had about the property, always offering honest advice and taking the time to explain things clearly. No matter how many calls or questions I had, Mark was always patient, professional, and genuinely helpful. His communication throughout settlement was outstanding, making the whole experience far less stressful than I expected. It was also clear he was working hard behind the scenes to support both myself and the seller, ensuring everything went as smoothly as possible. Both Mark and Mel were an absolute pleasure to deal with, friendly, down-to-earth, and truly caring. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell. Thank you both so much.
Mark was quite ouststading in my particular case as i had had a leg amputated only 4 weeks prior to placing the house on ythe market. This resulted in me being placed in full time and in a wheelchair . My family and Mark then had to pepare the place for sale and he and his wife did an excellent job of dressing the place up he also did work around the place which in my experience no other agent would do.
Mark took over the selling our property at 97 Ohauiti rd Tauranga. Nothing was to much for Mark. We came to a great result after mark redone the sales and perchase aggrement which suited buyer and seller. Contract became Unconditional. We would have no hesitation in recommening for future endevors going forward and have no hesitation in giving him a stamp of approval. Regards Nickey and Jo.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Mark as our real estate agent, and I can confidently say that he is simply amazing! From the very beginning, Mark was incredibly informative and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. He was always quick to respond to our questions, providing us with clear and thorough answers that put our minds at ease. What truly stood out to me was his friendly and down-to-earth demeanor. Mark made us feel comfortable throughout our home-buying journey, and his approachable nature made it easy to communicate our needs and concerns. He is diligent and gets things done efficiently, ensuring that no detail was overlooked. I wholeheartedly recommend Mark to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. His expertise, responsiveness, and genuine care for his clients make him a standout agent in the real estate market. Thank you, Mark, for your outstanding service!
Mark definitely went the extra extra mile on this property. He was available to both us and unpredictable purchases pretty much 24/7 , to answer all sorts of questions. Honesty and integrity were a constant requirement in our property and Mark demonstrated this constantly. Pleasure to work with.
We were thrilled we chose to list our property with Mark and highly recommend him to others. He communicated well and kept us in the loop. He was prepared to go the extra mile to ensure that our property sold. We have already recommended him to others. He’s proactive, had our interests at heart and followed through promptly with courses of action. We are very pleased with the decision we made to go with Mark.
Our experience with Mark cannot simply be summed up in one paragraph. It has been the most stress free but yet exhilarating experience to sell our beloved 1st home through Barfoot and Thompson. From day one, Mark arrived prepared with all the documents and information about our property, the sales process and the benefits of selling through B&T (and we have not even signed with them yet). Throughout the process, he handled every question and query with professionalism and a human connection. His exceptional communication skills and over 20yr experience and knowledge in the industry answered every question in a way that we could understand. Mark has sold our home over the December festive season. Although this was during days that would have been very inconvenient for him, he never complained and remained extremely professional. We have no regrets in our choice of agents for the sale of our home. We highly recommend Mark Van Etten from Barfoot and Thompson.
We found Mark knowledgeable about the market, he advised us what was prices similar homes were selling for. He was always happy to talk to us and we found him very easy to communicate with. Mark was a lot of fun to work with but also professional in his approach.
