Hello, I was raised in Mill Valley and have called Marin County home for over 50 years. Currently I reside in San Rafael with my wife & daughter and have been a full time realtor since 2015 and a real estate investor for over 20 years. My mission is to conduct business with the highest level of professionalism, integrity and enthusiasm. I bring commitment, warmth and a sense of humor to every relationship and transaction. I have sharp negotiating skills which ultimately benefit my clients while having the business competence to move deals forward. Let me represent your best interests while making sure you have everything you need for an unbeatable home selling/buying adventure. When selling homes my priority is to get the highest possible price with the most favorable terms, and to have fun while doing it. When working with buyers my objective is to find a home that fits their specific needs without overpaying. My low pressure demeanor often takes the edge off things for my clients. My inspiration is to have every client thrilled with their unique selling/buying experience. So satisfied that they will be my client for life and will refer me to their friends and family. Marin is unique and varies distinctly from one town to the next. San Rafael alone has over 30 neighborhoods that all have their prominent nuances and individual character. I am prepared to discuss Marin neighborhoods in depth including their schools, weather patterns, commutes, hiking/biking trails, dog parks, festivals and other distinct features. Let me show you around. When not engaged with clients you can find me on my mountain bike, at the gym, gardening or hiking/exploring (I am a descendant of William Clark from the Lewis & Clark expedition). My biggest adventures was backpacking around the world at age 18 for 8 months while working odd jobs along the way. A sizable portion of my commission is donated to various charities that protect our environment and open space. Call me at 415.235.1763 to discuss your real estate dreams, aspirations, goals, and objectives.

John Clark is an extremely knowledgable and experienced realtor. He has great people skills and his intuition is solid. Every step of the way while selling our house, John Clark was unfailingly polite and supportive. I am certain that if we went with any other realtor our experience would not have been as positive. I thoroughly recommend him.

I worked worked with John for almost a year as I tried to relocate from SoCal to San Rafael. John and a friend went to look at several homes as I couldn?t be there in person. Using FaceTime, John went over each home with a contractor?s keen eye and though it wasn?t in own interest, he repeatedly advised me not to buy. He was honest and skilled. He truly puts his clients first. I?ve worked with many reators and he?s the best.

He is knowledgeable, lots of experience, patient, kind, honest, communicates well, and hard working. Thanks John!
