Our buying process with Mark was excellent. His knowledge of the market and experience with inspections/remedies helped us get a great price on a home in the condition we were looking for. Thank you Mark!

Mark was extremely professional and especially helpful to me, an out of town seller. He helped me with the details, both small and large. I would highly recommend him for all of your real estate needs!

Mark did an excellent job selling our home. We were moving to an independent facility and time was a concern. He sold the house in one day! So knowledgeable and pleasant to work with.

Mark is the most experienced and professional Realtor I have ever worked with. After months of not being able to sell our mothers home, we switched Realtors and partnered with Mark to sell it. He completely changed the marketing, photos, and provided us continuous data updates on our mother's home. Within just a few days, we had multiple showings and sold the property within weeks.

I highly recommend Mark and EMC Realty. Switching Realtors and partnering with Mark was the best decision we made. Wish we would have started with Mark.

Mark took a genuine interest in my needs and wants, in a home and general lifestyle experience. He was focused on just that throughout the entire home searching/purchasing process. I couldn’t have felt more comfortable or confident that Mark would lead me to the perfect home and neighborhood...and that’s exactly what he did.

Just bought and sold with Mark! He is an amazing realtor, fought hard for me when I needed him, answered any and all questions quickly, and he was willing to help me with literally ANYTHING from start to finish. Even after I bought my house he offered to help me call utilities, get quotes from movers, just whatever he thought would be helpful. I never once questioned that he has my best interest as a top priority. I would absolutely recommend him to my closest friends and family! Amazing realtor.

I can't recommend Mark enough. I had to sell my mother's house after she died and he walked me through all the steps. He went beyond his responsibilities and I had complete trust in him. When I go to sell in the future he will the person I go to. Thanks for being a good person Mark!

Trying to navigate the housing market during this time was truly confusing and stressful. It was crazy, the standard way I shopping and comparing were totally turned upside down into a game of blindfolded Russian roulette.
Fortunately, I had the opportunity to have the assistance of Mark Sotherden with EMC Realty. He definitely was the cool breeze that calmed the chaos. He guided without pushing, made sound suggestions and steadily worked through the process. Thanks Mark. I think I would have given up if it hadn’t been for your efforts.

I can't say enough about Mark Sotherden of EMC Realty. He has been so helpful, there at every step and even after hand surgery showed up for a final walk thru even though he didn't need to. He has taken care of everything for us.

The compassion he has shown, and the empathy that we needed during our selling and buying process is what we were needing and he supplied.

You will not go wrong hiring Mark as your realtor. Forget the stars he would have 10 from us if we were able too.

If you want someone that is reliable, will pck-up every call even at odd hours, and is there with you every step of the way then Mark is that person you have been hoping to hire to sell and purchase your home.

Please know that I wouldn't do a review on just anyone, but Mark is someone that deserves to do well just for his kindness. Hire him you won't go wrong!!!!!

Be safe and thank you Mark for everything....

Mark has helped me buy two homes and sell one over the past 3 years. He listened carefully to what I was looking for, provided helpful comments and insights about the neighborhoods and homes themselves as we toured different houses, and has always been easy to communicate with - text, email, and phone - he answers/responds readily. If you're looking for a realtor to give you the personal attention and knowledge of the market and neighborhoods to help you buy a home, give Mark a call. You'll be glad you did.

We had a heck of a time finding a home in this crazy market. After 8 bids, we finally got a home. Mark was our agent through it all. He never waivered. Mark is very helpful, knowledgeable, and extremely patient.
He ALWAYS made time to show us homes, even on short notice, responded to texts and calls quickly. He would be an asset to anyone, buying or selling.
Thanks Mark!

We highly recommend Mark Sotherden and EMC Realty. Mark was recommended to us, and when we first met with him, he listened to our needs, offered advice, explained the process, and ultimately listed our home. Once listed, he helped us prepare our home for showings, and kept us engaged about what to expect and changes needed to move forward. Throughout the experience, Mark was highly responsive and helpful. Not only did we sell our house for the price we hoped to get, but we make a new friend in Mark.

Mark has helped buying 2 houses and selling one. Each time he has been amazing to work with and went above and beyond to make sure not only were we taken care of and getting a fair deal, but also that we were comfortable with every step. He always took the time to explain anything we needed with patience and understanding. Not only was he good at his job, my wife and I also felt like old friends and truly enjoyed our time working with him.

The most professional realty group I have ever dealt with. As many know, the home real estate market has been absolutely crazy over the past two years, primarily due to record low mortgage interest rates. I really don't believe we could have purchased our home without the help, diligence and patience of Mark Sotherden of EMC Realty. My wife, Anne, and I highly recommend using EMC Realty for your residential purchase and/or sale needs!

My wife and I were looking for a place in the Delaware, OH area. Mark of EMC realty was recommended to us and we were very satisfied with his work. Finding a place was not easy as we lived 3 hours away, but he was always there as if he was our personal agent. After moving into our new place we were faced with selling our old place. We could have gone with a local agent, but chose to go with Mark instead. That proved to be a great decision as he guided us through the process to a successful sale of our old place. Selling or buying, we highly recommend Mark of EMC Realty as your agent.

Mark worked with my husband and I for 2 years trying to find our 'forever home'. We ended up buying, flippig, selling, buying and having to walk away at closing, to finding the perfect home. Mark was right there with us the entire way! He told us what we needed to hear and and was beyond patient. I have and will recommend Mark to everyone.

Mark was absolutely wonderful to work with on the purchase of our home. He was kind, patient, and invested the time to truly understand what we wanted to ensure that he could help us find our dream home. He then expertly handled the offer and negotiations, making sure that things went easily and smoothly throughout the process. I would use Mark again in a heartbeat and highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Central Ohio area!

Mark has been a wonderful realtor to my partner and I! He helped us search for our first home. It took months of searching in different areas and different home styles before we knew what we wanted. And with the hot Columbus market, we had to move fast once we found what we liked. He was super patient. You can tell he truly cared about us finding the right home.

Mark helped us purchase our first and second home, as well as helped us sell our first house (since our second home purchase was contingent on the sale of the first). Throughout the process both times he was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. He was determined to help us find the right fit the first time, patiently guiding us through all our questions and concerns. The second time he came through again going above and beyond to ensure everything was done well on both ends. Mark was absolutely wonderful to work with and we enjoyed our time working with him. Not only were we impressed, but when my parents decided to sell their home in Southern Ohio and move up to the Columbus area they reached out to him after their experience seeing him work with us. He even stepped up and handled the sale of their home in addition to the purchase of the home up here. You won't regret working with Mark!

Mark was very honest and helpful to both the buyer and the seller (me, Sharon Slack) in the selling of my previous home. All went well in all the dealings that had to take place. He made everything as easy and safe as possible for me, an elderly widow, in the more difficult situations of the present day. I'm very grateful and appreciative to Mark for the caring and honest manner in which he handled the sale and transference of what had been my home since around 1960 but was no longer a place for me to live in and care for easily. I had never known Mark before, but he made me feel as comfortable and cared for as if I were family.

Mark took the time to help my wife and I find our first home. He still takes the time to check up on us and even helped us submit a warranty claim when we had a leak! We cannot recommend Mark enough and look forward to working with him when we purchase a new home for our growing family.
