Marcus was great! Courteous, professional, prompt, and knowledgeable would be a few words used to describe him. He made himself available when we needed him, and always responded to calls and text messages quickly. He is experienced and trustworthy. We highly recommend him!

Marcus worked with me to purchase my first home in 2014 and it was a great experience. There were a lot of things I didn't know as a first time homebuyer, but with his extensive knowledge and guidance, I felt like an informed consumer. Marcus was very responsive, which is very important and reassuring during the home buying process. He took the time to explain every part of the process, including on closing day! I would highly recommend Marcus to anyone, and have, you will not be disappointed!

Marcus is very knowledgeable in his job. He is always available for questions or concerns. When you call or text him he always gets back to you immediately. We highly recommend him as a realtor! Marcus was transparent with us and helped steer us in the right direction. We've ended up with a house that surpassed our expectations thank you Marcus.

I would like to recommend our real estate agent Marcus Bruno. Here is the review I gave him on the sale of our home.

5 stars

Marcus listened to our needs and ideas and worked as a team with us which led to a very profitable sale with minimal issues. It was a very smooth transaction. He was very pleasant to deal with and minimized stress for us in the whole process. He was also very proactive and organized in planning everything which lead to 26 showings and more than 20 people at an open house all within 2 days. We had over 9 offers from that 2 days. So we didn't have to leave the house on the market for longer than 2 days and disrupt our lives with nuisance showings. He was very savvy with negotiating, picking the best buyer, and using leverage to give us the best deal.

You were accessible. I could call on you anytime and, if you were not available at that moment, you returned each call and email as soon as you were available. You were never rude to me or made me feel I was intruding. Not even when I'd call you on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon after I found a property that looked interesting and wanted more information on it.
