Mark has been a licensed Realtor since 2004. After his initial career of over 20 years in the Professional Beauty industry, he decided to get off the road and build a new career in Real Estate. Mark has sold homes of all price points and in all kinds of markets.
Over 105 agents have been trained and mentored by Mark. Many of these agents are making a positive impact in the markets they serve. Since 2015 they have accounted for over 200 million in Real Estate transactions.
In 2022 The National Association of Realtors, through his Senior Real Estate Specialist, honored him with the Outstanding Service Award given to one Realtor in the country. Mark’s work with seniors and those in need within his community earned him this prestigious award. Mark is involved in several community efforts to help seniors, the working poor, and the homeless around the tri-valley of the East Bay. For years Mark has gathered gently used coats from clients, friends, and his Real Estate farm for the Knights of Columbus and St. Vincent DePaul in Hayward, CA, for distribution to the community.
Since 2018 Mark has worked on Friday mornings picking up food close to being out of date from a local Safeway store and delivering to the Livermore Homeless Refuge, Tri-valley interfaith food pantry, and several senior housing communities. Food that would be composted is now providing the hungry with weekly groceries. COVID has added struggles with these deliveries, but people are hungry every day, whether it's a pandemic or not. The latest project is to help seniors make Doctor appointments. Mark is working with a group to provide free rides to their medical appointments. The fear among seniors regarding catching COVID remains high, and a friendly face helps to calm some of their fear.
“Mark It Sold” has been Mark’s slogan since his Real Estate career began. Today more than ever, Buyers and Sellers need to know that their trusted professional has the knowledge and experience to navigate and negotiate this current market. Whether a first-time home buyer or a senior looking to downsize, Mark can help you “Mark It Sold.”
As your Buyer's Representative, we can make the process of house hunting much easier and more efficient than if you did it all yourself.

We'll save you valuable time by finding the properties that best suit your requirements, and will show you only the most promising ones.

Once you've found a place that catches your eye, we'll look at comparable properties in the area to help determine a purchase offer. Then assist you through the entire process.
Selling a house on your own can be an overwhelming task. There's advertising to plan and budget for, open houses and private showings to arrange, purchase offers to negotiate, contract contingencies to worry about, and complicated paperwork to fill out. Make it easy on yourself by putting your home in the hands of a seasoned professional. I have extensive experience marketing properties and showing them to their best advantage.
First, we'll perform a comparable market analysis to determine the most appropriate price for your home. Then we'll provide home staging advice and suggest landscaping changes that will help draw buyers in. We'll advertise your home through a variety of methods, including local publications and online MLS® listings.
Market knowledge goes beyond simply knowing the neighborhoods. Ask us about the school district, available parking, or standard bedroom sizes in the area.
Your time is valuable. That's why take the time upfront to understand your unique wants, needs and dislikes to ensure the rest of our time together is productive as possible.
You have questions and I have answers. I'll make sure that you feel confident and empowered when it comes to make important real estate and purchasing decisions.
Mark was outstanding in every aspect of the home buying process. He completely exceeded all of our expectations. For being a first-time home buyer, Mark was the best realtor. He was very knowledgeable and never rushed us or made us feel inadequate. His home recommendations were spot on in regards to price, location, and commodities. He didn’t pressure us into any decisions, and he also provided us with all the details about a house before we put an offer down. When working with Mark, he will use his resources to ensure you get the most from your side of the deal. In this crazy market, Mark helped us make the best and fair offer to get the home we wanted. All of his networking for the other aspects of home buying for us were excellent. Mark made this process feel like a fun adventure rather than a chore! We will be using him for all of our buying and selling needs in the future.

“Mark
Selling my house with Mark Kotch was a breeze. Mark earned my trust and confidence through his extensive knowledge of the real estate marketplace and processes. Showing and selling the house in a COVID environment was scary on many fronts. Mark was able to assure by establishing and following strict COVID protocols and still find us a buyer. In the end he did find us a buyer, who by the way offered over the asking price. Thanks Mark...Mark-it-Sold!!!
