Outstanding Communicator and Negotiator

Mark Bowis is an outstanding real estate agent who delivered an excellent outcome. We chose Mark because of his strong record and in depth knowledge of the Balmain area. Mark articulated a clear strategy for our property sale. He developed a detailed plan and schedule which gave us a high level of confidence from the start. Mark orchestrated all of the services we required pre-sale including minor maintenance, moving our furniture, and styling the house, all within a tight timeframe. He absolutely kept to the schedule and enabled us to keep to it too. He worked with us at each step along the way, helping us through the whole sales process. His communication skills are exemplary, always clear and timely. He gave us sound advice and recommendations where needed. He is thoroughly professional in his approach. Mark Bowis working together with Liz Cloran achieved a great result. We highly recommend Mark & Liz and we wouldn't hesitate to engage them again.

Outstanding Agent

Mark was exceptional from start to finish. His advice on the best approach to the sale was spot on, and I had complete trust in him from day one. He went above and beyond to organise improvements and staging, and his knowledge of the market and how to navigate it was second to none. He was also genuinely great to deal with and took all the stress out of selling. I couldn't recommend Mark more highly.

Consumate Professional

Mark was the second selling agent on our property. He is highly professional, helpful and worked wonderfully with the other agent Liz. They achieved an outstanding result in a falling market.
