My wife and I have worked with The Mark & Grether Group for two home purchases and a home sale in the past 3 years. The team is knowledgeable and patient when explaining the tricky details of the entire buy/sell process. The professional demeanor of the entire staff means that you're working with a team who is organized, prompt, and attentive. Their attention to detail when it came to the sale of our home was key - they knew exactly how to highlight the best aspects. When selling, we received multiple offers above our asking price while only on the market for a short time. During the entire buy & sell process, the team was considerate of our time and busy work schedules. When you work with The Mark & Grether Group, you are working with a team who cares, treats you like family, and gets the job done!

Although Chris and I grew up together in Malibu, we did not run in the same circles so I never had…read morethe pleasure of meeting him in person until recently. My family home was being placed on the market and although the size of the home was modest in size in comparison to some of his other listings, Chris took the time to come out to the property on several occasions, showing a deep interest in marketing the family home correctly and efficiently. He made me feel like our feelings about our family home mattered. Chris is a very passionate leader and I have the utmost respect for him as a person. Obviously, his sales numbers are out of this world, but I was impressed with his sweet, humble, approachable personalty. I highly recommend Chris if you are going to be listing a home in Malibu or are lucky enough to call Malibu home.

Chris Cortazzo is the king of Malibu real estate plain and simple. He has more listings, sells more…read morevolume and has an incredible feel for value in the area. Year in and year out Cortazzo posts numbers that aren't just tops in Malibu but compete favorably with the biggest agents in the nation. His team is completely full service. His access to special properties is unlike anyone in Malibu. He lives in Malibu and knows every property like the back of his hand. With enough budget (Malibu real estate isn't cheap as we know) there's no way I would look at real estate in Malibu without Chris on my team. Perhaps even more so, I can't imagine listing a Malibu property without the aid of Chris and his team. Nobody spends more time, money and effort to quickly and effectively close meaningful deals.

Backstory: My father was thinking of selling his home near Westlake Village if he could get a certain price. As a Realtor servicing a different area, I wanted to reach out to someone who I felt would have my fathers best interest at heart. I interviewed a few agents and what I liked about her was how knowledgeable she was about the area and how I felt she was more focused on helping my dad than "making a sale". Long story short, after running comparable sales it turned out that it wasn't in my fathers best interest to sell in order to get the amount of money he wanted. She understood his goals and told him she supported his decision. Since then (over a year ago) she has been keeping us both updated on the market trends in the city he owns and answering all of our questions. No doubt we will use her when we go to sell his property. Thanks Barbara for being so kind and informative!
