About Mark
Principal & Director, for over 30 years, Mark is still one of Canberra’s leading property practitioners. Mark has been with Independent since 1990 and in that time has helped many hundreds of buyers and sellers to achieve their real estate goals. Together with his business partner Nicholas Jacob, they have set a benchmark for client experience and have consistently been one of Canberra’s leading sales team. Together they have personally negotiated an average of 130 sale transactions per year and have received over 150 awards including Independent Top Sales Agents for 2013 and 2018. Within eighteen months of joining Independent, Mark's hard work was rewarded when he was promoted to Sales Manager, making him one the youngest managers in Canberra at the time. In June 2001 Mark opened the Woden branch office of Independent where he now manages a highly experienced and very successful sales team. Mark has a rare knowledge and understanding of the Canberra market, and buyers, sellers and investors throughout the Territory hold him in high esteem. Mark has experienced success in the sales, management and training areas of the Independent Property Group and can provide you with extensive expertise in: - Creating a professional marketing plan for your home, using Independent's unique in-house marketing department; and - Advising you on the best finance for your situation, drawing on his experience working with many of Canberra's leading lenders. Mark's greatest love apart from his family is real estate. He expects nothing less than 100 per cent quality service from his colleagues, and himself, when dealing with the real estate needs of Independent clients.

Loved working with Jonathan

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Jonathan and the team. They kept us informed every step of the way, provided reassurance when we needed it, and when auction day came… they smashed it out of the park.

Great communicator

His communication was quite clear, he always kept me in the loop of what was going on with the property. He went above and beyond, even adding door stops and etc when typically it is contracted out. I'm very happy with the result.

Excellent real estate agent...an expert in his field.

Excellent real estate agent...an expert in his field.

Having bought and sold more than a dozen properties, we can unequivocally say that Mark is the best real estate agent we have come across. His depth of knowledge, his understanding of the market, his availability to both vendor and buyers, professionalism and negotiating skills all leave other agents wanting.

Calm, informative, helpful

Calm, informative, helpful

Nick was great to work with when purchasing my property. He was available, receptive, informative and helpful. The purchase of a property often doesn't run smoothly but Nick kept open communication and worked with me to resolve any barriers to the sale. I always felt that I could ring Nick and have a frank, honest conversation with him.

A Shining Example for other Real Estate Agents too!

What sets Nicholas apart is his exceptional commitment to relationship building. Nicholas has become a friend over the years because he doesn't just facilitate transactions; he fosters genuine connections, ensuring everyone feels heard and respected throughout the entire process. His meticulous attention to detail is second to none, catching things others might miss and preventing potential issues before they arise. Most impressively, Nicholas works diligently to make sure both the buyer and seller are looked after.
