TESTIMONIALS

Kurt Patterson

Working with Mark was great! We found Mark to be very knowledgeable and professional. Mark has a great eye for spotting potential issues with houses and property. He is upfront with his opinions and has a great list of contacts. We were shopping at a time of low supply and high demand, but thanks to Mark we closed on a house that we love in the area we wanted. I highly recommend Mark for anyone looking to buy a house!

Mark exceeded expectations throughout the buying process and went above and beyond. He was incredible through every stage of us buying our home. Mark was an ally, friend, and advisor and helped us navigate a difficult time with the seller. We felt like we were constantly in the loop every step of the process, which was entirely due to his thoroughness and dedication. We cannot imagine a better experience and cannot wait to refer others moving forward.

Mark started on what was to be a simple off-market sale, and ended up working hard to get a deal done over a few weeks. Attentive, patient, and offering access, handholding and explanations along the way as needed. Helped us get through an often difficult process.

It was a pleasure working with Mark. He helped us find our first home. He was easy to communicate with and very responsive. He kept it real and was honest with us about what was best for our family. Thank you, Mark!

Keith Richardson

Mark was a great agent to work with. He was responsive and very helpful throughout the entire process. We sold our home with him as our agent, and also purchased a new home in Poway with him. Both experiences were great and i'd highly recommend Mark to my friends or family as their agent.

It has been a looong time since we bought a house and the San Diego County market is no exception to the fact that every house has a crowd of buyers outbidding eat other. But putting reason aside, we entered the fray because, well, our five-year-old grandson deserved a "forever home." A call to our trusted credit union led us directly to Mark Schauder, their preferred agent for the Ramona, Poway, and RB area. Realistic but encouraging, the ever-professional Mark guided us every step of the way. Early morning, at night, and seven days a week, Mark was responsive and supportive. There were a few hiccups (as with any complex process) but Mark's role was to smooth them out rather than create them. This is no market to enter without a guide, and there can be no one better to lead you than Mark. So while most buyers are bidding for the twentieth time, our grandson and his family are about to move in and build a lifetime of memories.

Mark was fantastic to work with! He was quick to respond. He offered great advice and feedback to help us make the best choices for our financial and real estate needs. He helped us navigate a smooth 1031 exchange transaction. His connections were helpful to finding hidden properties and networking first access to new listings.

Mark did an awesome job getting us top dollar for our house. He made the process very easy and really minimized the amount of time that we needed to spend worrying about the details of the sale. His sales strategy and easy-going approach made him perfect for our house and our busy life. To start, we only had to be out of the house for one weekend. We then settled on an offer well above our asking price. Fortunately, Mark kept the list of potential buyers close at hand so when the first buyer fell through, the next buyer was ready to go. We closed a few weeks later. Thanks Mark!!

I worked with Mark to sell my home in Poway. He is awesome. He was patient with me throughout the process. He helped me work through the challenges, concerns, and my lack of knowledge of the process. He always took my calls and responded to texts promptly. He was a guiding light through the process. I would work with him again and recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Louisa Magoon

Our realtor Mark, was very nice to work with. He is patient, reliable and knows his business. We had a challenging set of circumstances and he did it. We sold 2 houses and bought 1. He gave us recommendations on what we need to do to get our houses ready to sell. He was right - they both sold for top dollar. As far as the house we bought - that was not easy. The first 2 we liked, didn't work out. He was always ready to show us another house, no matter what day or time we could do it. I highly recommend him. Thank you Mark! Come visit when we're all settled in.

Mark was amazing! He was patient and gave us great advice for preparing our house for sale. Even before we were ready, he took us to see homes and helped us narrow down what was important to us. He made great recommendations from who to finance with to HVAC people. We felt that he always had our best interest at heart and was was always honest and sincere. When were ready to sell, Mark broke the record four our neighborhood! He was responsive throughout the entire process and even checked in with us on a few occasions even after the sale was complete!

Thomas Heyer

We appreciate so much all of Mark's help, and his professionalism through the entire process of both selling our home and buying another. Our's was particularly challenging on a number of fronts, but Mark handled each situation very well. He also was very prompt in both answering our questions and getting what we needed to move forward. In short, he did a great, great job for us and we enjoyed very much his many interactions over the many months these transactions took.

Erica Rangel

Mark is amazing! He made the first home buying process a breeze--it was almost too easy! No question was too silly for him and he took so much time to explain every single step that would happen. His patience is impressive and always had great insight to provide when we saw units. He was careful and thoughtful about every unit he sent forward until we found just the right one. I fully trusted him in this process and having him in my corner made this process smooth and simple!

Kathryn Pond

Mark was extremely helpful and very quick in responding. This was my first home buying experience, and he explained things clearly and gave great advice about things I might not have noticed or thought of. Highly recommend and would use again!

Sean Park

Mark is the MAN! I have had the pleasure to work with Mark on 4 transactions and he continues to take me back! On a very difficult multi-stage transaction, Mark advised on the sale of 2 homes and purchase of 2 homes all within a month of each other. In this high-stress environment, I always received solid advice when ever I had a question and I had several. I was very happy to work with a professional who consistently goes over above my expectations. I will be happy to work with Mark again in the future.
