Hi, I'm Mark Carmien and I'd love to assist you with your real estate needs! Whether you're at the beginning of your search or you know exactly what you're looking for, or if you're ready to list your home but not sure what needs to be done to get it ready, you'll benefit from having me by your side. I'd be honored to put my real estate experience to work for you!
Mark was very helpful in helping us decide on when to put our property on the market, and arrive at a listing price, and understand how much to clean out the property, as we were offering to sell it furnished, if desired. We sold our property in January, at a time when we were going to be out of state, and were not planning to return to the area while it was on the market or for the closing. Mark took care of a lot of little final details that were really above and beyond what was required, or what services real estate agents usually provide. In addition, he was always very pleasant, helpful and respectful in our dealings with him, and with the process. Our property sold very quickly in the middle of the New England winter, thanks to Mark’s expertise.
Mark Carmien's work is flawless: professional, flexible, deeply knowledgeable, generous, supportive, efficient, and super-well-connected. He combined sharp good judgment with decency and kindness, and the result has been just delightful for me and for my family! Mark is a master of the details — very attentive — and somehow at the same time low-key. Two times I experienced Mark's guidance and expertise, first as a long-distance buyer (California!), and 10 years later, as local seller, of our 220-year-old Amherst farmhouse. In both instances, there were odd details and complexities to navigate; and Mark made this so very easy! In each case, there was great reason for optimism alongside my concerns, and Mark carried this through to realizing our goals. As buyers, Mark's knowledge of heating systems, electrical, zoning, construction-related topics, etc., was valuable. And his connections with service providers was so very helpful to my family. When we sold, there were so many judgments to make: timing and pricing in a volatile market; what to fix, what to beautify, what to leave, and how to do this so that both we, and the buyers, would be happy. Win-win-win! At the time of showing, Mark's taste in paint colors; guidance on priorities; semi-staging, came to fruition. We closed with a great price and very friendly negotiations with great buyers. Bottom line: my family was so well-taken care of, which to me is the ultimate measure of importance. I'm deeply grateful to Mark
