Mark was very diligent and persistent with the sale of my property.He and Sharon conducted the open houses very professionally and provided prompt feedback followed up with longer written reports via email.Mark also listened to our requirements and was very personable with the sale of the property

Working with Mark has been a total pleasure. Mark was saddled with selling a house that was hiding a number of large, surprising and extremely challenging problems that took ages to rectify. We were lucky in choosing Mark to sell the house as he had the patience, expertise and contacts in the building industry to carry out the required work to the highest standards. He project managed the issues in a professional and calm manner; offering sound advice throughout the process. All his hard work has paid off as the house sold quickly once it became available on the market and the price achieved was above expectations. Without Mark's expertise and dedication we could not have sold the house as easily and happily as we did. Our warmest thanks go out to Mark and his team for all they did for us and the results that they achieved. We can thoroughly recommend Barton Real Estate to anyone looking to sell their property.

I first bought property through Mark, rented that property using his agency, and ultimately engaged Mark to sell it for me, and at each and every stage, I found him to be a very effective communicator and a true professional, aware of the twists and turns of the market, and able to give relevent and timely advice. His generosity of spirit is evident in so many ways and I would like to make particular attention to this inherent generosity. Mark ALWAYS gives you his mind, his thoughts, his ideas, even his physical efforts - whatever is necessary for and helpful to his clients. You couldn't do better than Mark, just to repeat myself

Mark Barton has been managing my rental property for the past 20 years. When it came time to sell, he advised us about pricing in the area. Made suggestions on advertising and sold our house for more than we anticipated after only one open house. He made selling a house from overseas so easy for us. We highly recommend Mark and his team when you are selling, renting your property or buying a house.

Sell or not? Mark Barton was candid and not pushy. He encouraged us to speak with other agents and set up inspections. That was different! We were surprised at the range of selling prices - $500k difference from low to high. How can that be? The decision the appoint Mark was easy. It wasn’t about being wooed by a high selling price, the fee, or slick marketing, or flash cars. It was about understanding our needs, market realism and supporting us, not ‘just’ selling a house. Amazing support! Notice to tenants was done professionally. The time to market was short, the market was changing, we had an insurance claim to navigate, and budget to establish. And we now lived 500km away! Mark’s connections were so responsive with quotes, options and advice Mark was not afraid to get his hands dirty too. When friends asked of our progress, they would remark “we’ve never known a real estate agent helping like THAT!” The house looked wonderful when it went to market. Timing was not ideal, but we were committed to the process and could still rent it out again should the process not find a buyer. The initial responses came in, and it was slow! We talked about ‘the ideal buyer’ and Mark was pragmatic as we discussed their qualifications. Most who had enquired were not 'ideal'. Interest rate rises, and the threat of more, was not helping our cause and Mark kept reassuring us that we would know when the right buyer turned up. They did! Well actually, …we had two! The first got our attention, but we also had a cashed-up buyer as #2. We were committed to buyer #1 as the house really suited their needs best. Mark worked for us with real integrity. It had been a seller’s market and it changed very quickly. We ended up as happy sellers, with the right buyer and a price way higher than some of the initial estimates! Thank you, Mark Barton, for your calmness and dedication to achieve a solid outcome in a very finicky market.
