Mark Hopkins from the first meeting, with less than 24 hours notice he arrived for a 6am meeting, he listened and provided a very succint summary of the auction/sale process. As a divorcee and the family home being part of a property settlement, I had never sold a house alone and to my amazement Mark made the process easy. He was always prompt and professional with my emails and phone calls and the open home feedback detailed. I would certainly sign with Mark in the future and will recommend him with complete confidence that the stress of selling a home is made easier by his expertise.

Mark was a pleasure to work with. He was always available to offer support and advice from the early stages during renovations and throughout the campaign. He was honest, reliable and supportive at all times. Every call was answered or returned as quickly as possible and he made himself available whenever we needed him. When we got nervous or discouraged, he talked us off the ledge with his positivity. Anyone can sell a house in a hot market, but ours was in a challenging environment, and Mark rose to the challenge and achieved a result we were most happy with. I therefore take pleasure in recommending Mark Hopkins to prospective buyers and sellers on the Upper North Shore, and wish him the continued success he rightfully deserves.

We found Mark to be very knowledgable of the market and having realistic expectations of property values. Made the selling experience a positive one.

It is a pleasure to work with Mark. He is very prompt and responsible. He could provide professional marketing advice based on the current condition. He could also provide alternatives based on how the whole sale campaign proceeds.

Mark was professional from the first meeting, he was honest and sincere. There was a little incident just prior to exchange that Mark worked delicately through, no complaints at all.

We found Mark highly professional and a delight to deal with on all aspects of the sale of our house. Mark's knowledge of the local market is second to none having grown up in the area and now working in the area for many years. Mark's initial valuation of our property was the very realistic and he secured a sale at the upper end of his valuation. Mark was always trying to get every dollar possible for our property, and we always felt he was working in our best interests but gave honest feedback and market information after every viewing, which were private viewings due to the Covid restrictions. I would highly recommend Mark to anyone as we would use him again without doubt.

Mark handled the sale of my property while I was living interstate. He was readily available to answer my questions, was knowledgable and honest and also communicated with the other owner living in Sydney. If things were uncertain, he'd say so. He was clear and objective in his information, not making things seem better or worse than they were. He formulated an effective but not excessive marketing plan. He gave helpful feedback after home opens. I would highly recommend him.

Mark has a lot of knowledge about the area and experience in the industry and so even in a very volatile market was able to assess the value of the property accurately and manage my expectations. Mark was generous with his time and always willing to answer any questions.

Mark was a tremendous help in the sale of my elderly parents property right from the outset. He gave us advice on how best to sell the property, what did or did not need doing internally, and what the market was doing. He did not pressure us into preparing it for sale too quickly. He advised going to auction which is what we wanted as there were a number of parties with interests in the property. His attention to detail, knowledge of the market, and communication with me at every stage was fantastic. His honesty and commitment to his client and respect for my parents at all times are his most admirable qualities.

After receiving presentations from several agents, I selected Mark because he seemed more genuine plus I had witnessed him achieve a good result on another property. His knowledge and advice was sound, he put in the hours and the sale tracked the way Mark suggested it would. A good result was achieved.

The preparing of the property took a considerable time due to an accident to my son. Mark hung in with us for a couple of years and then conducted a very efficient sales programme and kept us both well informed during the whole process. His efficiency and persistence despite the lengthy delays could not be faulted. The auction and results were excellent.

This is the second time we have sold with Mark, and we have been just as impressed this time as we were the first - if not more so!! Mark is very knowledgeable, trustworthy, genuine (which is a rare trait these days), and worked tirelessly for (and with) us to get the result we wanted. Mark is always well prepared, impeccably presented, and has a way with people. His calm and confident approach makes not only the seller feel comfortable, but also the buyer. His follow up skills were very impressive, and we would not hesitate to recommend Mark to anyone out there looking for a great agent, who will go above and beyond to get the best price for your home. Mark - we give you 10/10!!
