Mark is very knowledgeable and professional. He provided useful and honest information and laid out every step of the process. Mark was willing to do more than other agents which ultimately made it easy to choose him as my agent. The sale of my house went smoothly.

Review We worked with Mark Bell and we found him to be very knowledgeable about the local area; this was essential to us as we just moved into the Syracuse area and we were unfamiliar ourselves. Not only that but he was able to help us see the good and bad in each home and he guided us with his honesty, truly looking out for our best interest rather than just trying to get the sale. Mark will point out things that you may not notice as the average buyer, such as cracks in the foundation and expensive repairs. We also found Mark to be highly skilled in the area of negotiations which is imperative in this competitive market. Last but not least, Mark is a one stop shop for your home buying needs; he provided recommendations for lenders, home inspectors and attorneys who he has worked with in the past and knows to be reputable. This made our home buying process seamless. In addition to being professional and knowledgeable, he was also patient and kind and just an overall good guy. We will definitely be calling Mark when the time comes to sell!

Review As we all know the home buying process can be tedious, over whelming, and dreadful. Working with Adele from Bell Home Team was an absolute pleasure. She is thorough, honest, available, and always in good spirits. Adele made the home buying experience seamless. She is also, very resourceful. I would definitely work with her again in the future and recommend her to assist others with the home buying process. Thank you Adele!!!

Review Mark was amazing to work with! I brag about him to anyone I talk to about my house-buying experience. He really listened and was patient throughout the process. I have never bought a house before, and he really helped guide me with his expertise about what to look out for, particularly in our area. For each house I was interested in, he did thorough research on the house/neighborhood/any other factors to consider. He is a master negotiator and saved us about $15,000--it was truly unbelievable work and I am so grateful! Every part of the process was speedy, detailed, and comfortable. Mark was wonderful to work with and I highly recommend him and the Bell Home Team for house-buying or -selling!

Review Katherine Clare Bell was able to find me the perfect home with everything on my wish list for the amount of money I had to spend. You can't ask for anything more than that. She was available to me & answered every question I had. I trusted her and she really came though for me. I would recommend her to anyone. She went over and above. LOVED her.

Review I cant say enough good things about our experience and its no exaggeration to say we recommend Katherine and Bell Home Team to everyone. From the moment we talked with Katherine about selling our home through the moment the house sold, she was available to answer questions and give advice. She was supportive, knowledgeable, kind and helpful. We were beyond satisfied with both the process of listing and selling the home and how quickly our house sold.

Review We recently had the privilege to work with Mark Bell from The Bell Home Team, listing and selling our home. We can not speak highly enough about him. His professionalism, knowledge, honesty, integrity and hard work ethics were very much appreciated and respected through a challenging task to list & sell our family property of 53 years. Mark is detail orientated, straight forward and good with people. He is very informative, accessible and communicates clearly making the process as smooth as possible. He really cares about his clients and their needs. He continues to help us navigate through the current sellers market to try to find our new forever home. We highly recommend him for anyone looking to sell or purchase a home. Belinda & Jesse Morris

Review We contacted Katherine Bell, telling her we were just starting to look at homes. A few days later she called with a home she knew we'd love. We saw it, bought it on the spot. We then told her our house was not up for sale yet. She put it on the market immediately. She had many open houses to get it moving. She sold our home and got us into our new home in just weeks. She was professional, knowledgeable, easy to contact, and a pleasure to work with. We would (and have) recommended her to others.

Review Katherine was always there for us, and when she couldnt be one of her team members would step in so we didnt miss a house showing! Purchased a house during Covid restrictions and Kat&team were always prepared and ready for any challenge the homeowners would throw at us. My sister and father also use Bell because how great they are! Thanks again Katherine for helping us get into our perfect home!

Review Katherine came recommended to us from friends, and we cannot express how thrilled we were with her representing us as our Realtor. She went above and beyond constantly and was always in contact with us promptly throughtout the entire process. She clearly knows her stuff, and we could not be happier with our choice to work with her and the Bell Home Team. Even after all the i's dotted and t's crossed, she remained in contact with us and always putting us first. Absolutely recommend working with her and the team.

Review As a first time home buyer I needed a lot of help with the process and Mark could not have been better! He had prompt answers to all of my questions (even the dumb ones) and helped me find a home in my price range that was exactly what I wanted despite how crazy the market is right now (April - May 2021).

Review Mark is great to work with, approachable and knowledgeable and as a result makes the tedious homebuying process simpler. As a first time home buyer he was able to make each step as clear and concise as possible. Great communication, quick to reply to questions and always provided updates and follow ups. Looking forward to working with Mark again some day.

Review Trying to find and purchase our dream home in the midst of a pandemic and job loss was a wild experience. The one constant that we always had on our side was our incredible agent, Katherine Clare Bell of the Bell Home Team. We worked with Katherine for the better part of 14 months and she was there for us every single step of the way. Her knowledge, attentiveness and dedication was absolutely top-notch. She even provided us quality recommendations for an attorney, a home inspector and contractors. I'm honestly not sure we could have done it without her. We recommend Katherine and her team more strongly than we have ever recommended anybody or anything. Quite honestly one of the best decisions that we have ever made.

Review We called Mark Bell to go see a house in Bayberry. It wasn't right for us so he showed us another one down the street from there and it was perfect for us! There was another party interested in it but Mark was able to get it for us. The whole transaction went very smooth. Then we hired Mark Bell to sell our house in Chittenango. It was an older home and we thought it would be a tough sell. Mark had us an offer in no time and got us a very nice price for it. He works very well and does everything efficiently. He has a great personality and did everything quickly. We highly recommend Mark. The whole experience was pain free.

Review Mark and his team did an excellent job representing us and working in our favor. We were out of town property owners and Mark helped guide us through the entire process from getting our property into shape to providing valuable local resources and fighting on our behalf (and winning) for items we thought were important to us as well as determining a sales strategy.He was the most prepared agent out of the 3 interviewed to sell the home.He had a difficult job and many people to please. It was a multi family home with tenants that had to stay and leave in order to facilitate the sale. Mark couldn't have done a better job with all the challenges we had to face including the following additional issues:-Working with difficult buyer's attorney (Marks communication was crucial in keeping things moving fluidly and he understood his role very well and even helped manage my expectations)-Working with difficult tenants-Knowing when to refuse or accept offers-Working with property owners who lived ought of state and in separate states-scheduling visits that we're convenient for all partiesIt was a long process but his attitude and professional demeanor were exactly what was needed. All people I met in the process had nothing but good things to say about his team.Nobody is perfect, but Mark is as close as I have ever seen. I am as happy as I could ever be with work.

Review Working with Mark to sell our home was a wonderful experience! He is personable, knowledgeable, and honest. Communication was consistent and we always felt comfortable reaching out with any additional questions or concerns. Mark helped us move through the entire process, from sprucing up, repairs, staging, photographing, listing, scheduling showings, to negotiating and accepting an offer, and finally closing! We felt confident that Mark had our best interest in mind the whole way! We have already recommended Mark and the Bell Home Team to friends and family and will absolutely use them for any future real estate needs.

Review Katherine and Mark helped us get our house ready by meeting with us several times, making suggestions for a quick remodel, staging and then showing it. Mark and Katherine also suggested names of renovators and many ideas. Within one week after being on the market, our house sold! Katherine also answered our myriad questions with great patience and met with us to learn how we wanted to downsize to a condo. While we were in the South, she visited several condos in our price range and even did her own visits and videotaped the interior and exteriors for us and Mark sent us the results. Their knowledge, sincerity, transparency and friendliness were most appreciated. We think of them with great fondness and highly suggest the Bell Team!

Review We moved from a neighboring state to New York during the pandemic. The Bell Home Team and Katherine were amazing at navigating the challenging situation. They were willing to do virtual showing via Zoom and Facetime and we never felt as though we were missing out on anything by not seeing the homes in person. Katherine was very honest and straight forward regarding each property we viewed. We could not have made this move without The Bell Home Team. We would recommend these professionals to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in the Central New York area!

Review Katherine is an outstanding Realtor and consummate professional. The value she provided me & my family in the sale of our home was far greater than expected. Katherine connected me with professionals to help me get the house ready for sale and looking its best, so we could get TOP DOLLAR... this alone set her far above other local Realtors. Katherine kept an open line of communications during each step of the process... which was extra helpful, since I am out of state. Her knowledge of the area and market also became extremely valuable as the offers stated to come in.I couldn't be happier with the service Katherine and the entire Bell Home Team provided. If you are in need of a top-notch real estate expert to buy or sell your next property, you owe it to yourself to hire Katherine Clare Bell... you can tell her that Phil Tucker sent you!

Review As first-time home buyers, my fiancA(C) and I had a lot of questions and uncertainty on the entire process. Mark was incredibly patient and helpful. He encouraged us to ask questions and did his best to ensure we understood each step of the way. If we didn't feel 100 percent comfortable with something, he didn't push. Instead, he helped gather more information from the seller or suggested we keep looking. This is a Real Estate Professional with a high degree of integrity and compassion for his clients!

Review Mark was open and upfront about the home sale process. Provided realistic expectations on the value of the house and communicated after every open house. Also shared a report of all potential buyer comments. Once the house sold, Mark worked to find a home inspector when the state was shut down due to COVID.

Review Mark has been amazing to work with. His time and patience in helping me prepare the house to sell is unsurpased. My intent was to do a short sale on the home but Mark came by and walked through the home with me and was thorough, honest and on point with marketing and selling the home. Anytime I needed assistance with coordinating repairs and checking in on the home since I was not local, Mark was there to assist. He provided frequent follow up reports and stats once the home was listed which allowed us to adjust price points as necessary. I am truly grateful for the care of Mark and The Bell Home Team that was placed into selling my home. If ever I have property in the area, I will certainly work with your Team again and I highly recommend anyone who wants a smooth process in buying or selling a home and someone who truly cares.....look no further!!!

Review As first time home-buyers, my husband and I were new to the housing search process and full of questions. A good friend of ours recommended the Bell team for their friendliness, helpfulness, and - most importantly to us - their lack of pushiness. Mark Bell truly took the time to get to know us and our house wants and needs. With his knowledge and help, we navigated through 30+ tours to find our perfect place - and Mark remained patient and encouraging the entire time. Now that we're moved into our new home, we've already recommended his services to another friend of ours, and will continue to do so. Thank you, Mark!!!

Review We sold our home within 3 days of listing it, additionally we found and put in a purchase offer the same day we accepted the offer on our existing house. The closing was delayed for a number of reasons but Katherine's knowledge and expertise came to the rescue in getting us into the new house an kept us sane during the process. Although she was our primary contact there were a number of others on her team that helped facilitate everything and kept things moving in the right direction. Ultimately, we could not have been more pleased in our interactions with the Bell Home Team and would undoubtedly use them again and recommend them to EVERYONE considering buying or selling in CNY. Thank you Katherine & Mark!

Review The service Michelle gave us was far beyond expectation. She was incredibly helpful, flexible, supportive, friendly, always available to answer any questions and my favorite thing about her is that she truly cares that you find the right house for you. She was honest with us through the whole process, gave helpful information from her experiences in the field. I'm thankful for hearing about the Bell Home Teams first time home buyers seminar, they educated me on the buying process, and helped us find an awesome inspector. Special thanks to Michelle for helping us find our first home, we hope to work with you again in the future! ??

Review Mark was excellent from his first phone conversation to the final negotiations. He is very knowledgeable about comparable real estate, has an uncanny ability to gauge the market accurately, and he also has a knack to know precisely when/if to lower an asking price if need be. The professionalism with how he presents his listings - especially online - is unmatched. I was also very impressed and pleased with his personal willingness to go the extra mile with things, which you will find out firsthand if you choose his services. Thankfully, the entire process of selling my house was stress-free, and Mark deserves a considerable amount of credit for that. He has earned my strong recommendation.

Review Five isnt enough stars to adequately describe how well Mark Bell represented us as our agent. He was proactive, responsive, and clearly had a great command of the market as we had an offer at asking price just a few hours after listing. He took the time to explain the process so we had no surprises and made sure that everything went smoothly. Whats more is that Mark is a great guy. Cant say enough about good things about him and the Bell Home Team.

Review Katherine Bell and the Bell Home Team played a critical role in our first home buying experience. Katherine was so friendly, knowledgable and an absolute joy to work with. She was available whenever needed to keep the process moving quickly and answer any questions we had along the way. I will reccomend Katherine and her team to any CNY home buyer and will contact her for any future home purchase we make. Our interactions with Katherine will continue even after we received the keys to our home because of her vast connections of reputable home repair/improvement vendors. It was clear Katherine valued finding the right home at the right price rather than pursuing her own personal gain. She is extremely trustworthy and honest. Katherine is an absolute gem in the real estate world.

Review I cannot say enough about Mark Bell and my experience selling a home with him. This was my father's home & he passed away which made it a little difficult for me. Mark was understanding all the way through the process. He let me know what recommendations he made to get the house sold quickly. I followed through and the home was sold first day on the market. Mark has good knowledge of the area as he lives nearby himself. I will be using him again. Thanks Mark

Review I cannot recommend Mark enough. From the beginning of the process to the end he has been the absolute definition of professionalism and helpfulness. I am a first time home seller and he broke down the entire process for me and made it easy for me to understand and follow along. In addition to his expertise in the home selling process he maintains a great, positive attitude.To top it all off my house was under contract within 2 days of being on the market! This is due to Mark's advisement with pricing and his photographers talent in representing my house beautifully.All in all, if you are looking for a realtor that will truly advocate for you and will go above and beyond throughout the whole process, then Mark is your guy! In my opinion there is no better real estate team in the Syracuse area! I'm forever grateful!
