ZillowVERIFIEDI was an out of town home owner needing to sell my family property. I was referred to Mark Lima for his expertise and knowledge of California property and law. From the first phone conversation I felt Mark understood my anxiety and the stress of selling a family property. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable. Mark and his management team headed by Karrah Raposo who organized the entire renovation and was constantly on-site keeping me updated with the design and progress. Always giving me expert advise and a new California design! I highly recommend Mark and his very capable and caring team. They all went above and beyond from day one till the final closing.. Thank you to the Best Realtor!

ZillowVERIFIED My husband and I cannot think Mark and his team enough for their help during an extraordinarily challenging time. They were able to manage, organize, and oversee all of the cleaning, remodeling, and time-consuming projects while we were both extraordinarily busy working full-time. Everything turned out exceptionally and they made a very challenging time feel much more seamless. Highly recommend, my dad used them for my grandfatheraEUR~s house as well and had an equally amazing experience.

ZillowVERIFIED If you're searching for the BEST realtor in Huntington Beach, look no further than Mark Lima. I was referred to Mark specifically for his expertise working with out-of-state clients, and from the very first conversation, he proved exactly why he comes so highly recommended. This sale was deeply personal aEUR" it was my late father's condo, a probate situation aEUR" and Mark and his team handled every aspect of it with extraordinary care and sensitivity. Within just 7 months of our first meeting, Mark coordinated the full cleanout, a complete renovation, staging, listing, and a successful sale. For someone managing this process remotely while grieving, that kind of seamless, all-hands support was truly invaluable. When I had a momentary change of heart, Mark never rushed or pressured me. He was patient, understanding, and gave me the space I needed while keeping everything on track. Throughout the entire process he kept me informed with regular calls, photos, videos, and updates aEUR" I never felt out of the loop, even from a distance. When it came time to sell, Mark didn't just meet our asking price aEUR" he secured multiple offers above it. The entire experience was remarkably smooth from start to finish. As the best real estate agent in Huntington Beach, Mark brings not only exceptional skill and professionalism, but genuine kindness and integrity to every step of the process. A heartfelt thank you to Mark and Kara for your hard work, thoughtful recommendations, and efficient execution. I would wholeheartedly recommend Mark to anyone looking to sell aEUR" especially those navigating an out-of-state or probate sale.

ZillowVERIFIED We couldnt have asked for a better agent than Mark Lima for our first home purchase. He was responsive, supportive, and incredibly patient as we navigated everything for the first time. Even when a question wasnt in his direct area of expertise, he immediately pointed us to the right person so we always felt informed and confident. His passion made an overwhelming process feel achievable. Were grateful we got to make this huge life decision with someone we trusted. We highly recommend working with Mark and his team.

ZillowVERIFIED 5-Star Experience: Mak Lima Delivered a Record Sale, Stress-Free! We chose Mak Lima and his team to sell my father's house, and they delivered an experience that far exceeded our highest expectations.

Mak provided a meticulous schedule for all the pre-sale preparation, and his management of contractors was impeccable. The entire process was seamless, stayed perfectly on budget, and was completely uneventfulaEUR"exactly what you want in a real estate transaction. The result was truly outstanding: the house sold at a record price for the neighborhood. Mak and his team demonstrated exceptional professionalism, organization, and dedication from start to finish. They took all the typical stress out of selling. We are extremely impressed and will undoubtedly use Mak Lima for all our future deals. Highest recommendation!

ZillowVERIFIED I was referred to Mark Lima by a family member?s trust attorney and it turned out to be the best referral I?ve ever received. We had a home in the trust to sell and living several thousand miles away, it seemed overwhelming. We wondered how many trips we would have to make back to California and how we would find the people to provide the services we needed. After the first meeting with Mark, it was like a weight being lifted off my shoulders. I was able to return home to my obligations there while Mark managed the tasks that needed to be done in California. He has developed a network of reliable, trusted providers. He and his team made the arrangements for everything that was needed including shipping a vehicle, shipping personal items that the family wanted to keep, arranging an estate sale, hauling away items from the home and preparing the home for sale. He demonstrated that he knows how to value a property and how to utilize techniques to successfully sell. This is evidenced by the fact that an offer was accepted and in escrow within a few days of the home going on the market. Mark communicated with me every step of the way. Throughout the process he has been ethical, professional, knowledgeable, personable and trustworthy. He is the best realtor in Huntington Beach and Orange County. Mark and his team have been amazing. I highly recommend Mark Lima and the Lima Real Estate Group,

ZillowVERIFIED Mark and his team were absolutely flawless in helping me work through a family estate as it was located not near myself. He managed to single handily help me clean out the home, stage estate sale, clean and prep home, stage for listing and in a matter of a few days , not weeks, have the home listed and sold at a full listing. Great work and made this so effortless for myself and my family.

ZillowVERIFIED We had the best experience working with Mark Lima and his team! The whole process of preparing, listing, and selling the family home went so smoothly because of their care, communication, and expertise. Mark and his team were professional, personable and extremely competent every step of the way. We were always well informed and kept in the loop. Mark paid attention to detail. He knew what was needed, made sure it got done properly, and in a timely manner. Mark is also a vital part of the local community and it shows in all his connections. He cares about people, and treats everyone with respect. We could not have asked for, or found, a better realtor.

ZillowVERIFIED Mark Lima was one of several real estate agents recommended by our Estate Attorney to assist with the sale of our deceased sisters condo in LA. He mailed a personalized, hand-written note expressing his sympathy, and provided a detailed marketing plan for the property. My twin sister and I do not live anywhere near California, so Marks on-the-ground assistance was invaluable. We must have priced it properly as we received six offers after the Open House. While we encountered some difficulties during the process of closing, Mark was always ready to step in when help was needed.

ZillowVERIFIED Wish I could give Mark and his team 10 stars not just 5. I had picked Marks name out of a hat to handle the sale of my sisters somewhat neglected home in Huntington Beach. The family attorney also recommended Mark because of the positive experiences of his other clients. From the initial site visit all the way through recommending vendors to upgrade and stage the house, Mark and Devon held my hand and directed traffic. His advice during the escrow process was very helpful. The house sold in one day for more than we were asking and closed shortly thereafter.

ZillowVERIFIED Mark was fantastic to work with. When we sat down to discuss the sale, I knew it was going to be a challenge for several reasons, not the least of which was because I live on the east coast combined with the real estate market changing rapidly from our initial meeting. Mark went out of his way to keep me informed of what was going on, and discussing how the market was changing. I met with a few other realtors in the area before deciding to list with Mark, and I have to say that Im glad I went with him and his team. He was quick to offer feedback, suggestions and recommendations. He did the things that he said hed do, which meant a lot. If youre looking to buy or sell a property in Southern California Id strongly suggest reaching out to Mark and his team.

ZillowVERIFIED Mark was extremely personable and knowledgeable of the area. The number one reason that I would work with Mark again is that he isn?t afraid to fight for his seller to get the top dollar. I was personally afraid that we missed our window when our property was listed but Mark marketed the property correctly and sold it as if it were his own. He has the right balance of professionalism yet being able to connect with people in a relaxed way. Furthermore he values his family and works hard to support them. Honestly I am the type of person who does not write reviews however it would be inappropriate if I didn?t considering the extra efforts that he put forth on our behalf.

Review for Member: Mark Lima
ZillowVERIFIED Mark Lima is one of the greatest real estate agents we?ve ever had the pleasure of working with. We had the difficult position of selling a house in the Orange County area with no prior knowledge, and Mark led us skillfully through the real-estate world, ultimately ending with a successful sale. We were confused on what to do when the issue was brought up about our home in Orange County. Thankfully, we had found a resourceful agent who was more than helpful in teaching us how to navigate this new world of real-estate that we were stepping into. Whenever we had a question or difficult decision to make, Mark was there to guide us through the system. Mark is a natural ?go-getter,? someone who stops at nothing to see a problem solved. And we saw this demonstrated flawlessly whenever new issues would emerge. We would think that whatever next obstacle would be the one to stop us in our tracks, but Mark always found a way to keep the sale going. We cannot state enough how appreciative we have been for the help that Mark has shown us over the two years of our working relationship. And even if our business is concluded, we will always appreciate the hustle and intelligence that we saw from Mark when we were working together. I urge anyone thinking of doing business in SoCal to contact Mark Lima. You won?t regret it.

ZillowVERIFIED What can I say, Mark and Lima Real Estate are the absolute BEST. No but seriously - I know that you read reviews and can often be skeptical about how good someone is - but as a marketing professional myself, I can honestly tell you that Mark and his team are the real deal. Let me paint the picture for you - we did not make it easy on Mark and the odds were (in my opinion) against us. But not even a highly desirable neighborhood with low inventory, during the beginning of a global pandemic could stop Mark and his team from making our dream home a reality. We are incredibly thankful for Mark and the entire Lima Real Estate team and would not hesitate for one second to recommend them to friends and family who are in the market to purchase and/or sell a home.

ZillowVERIFIED Mark always has and always will go above and beyond to help out. I couldnt believe some of the stuff he did without any complaints from him. He always just said he just wants us to be happy with the price of the house we sold and with the home that we bought. I cant put into words how much I appreciated Mark and his selfless hard work.

ZillowVERIFIED Ive known Mark for many years, but had never had the privilege to work with him professionally. My husband and I were set to work with a different realtor (friend at the time) and we ended up having a conflict of interest so we cancelled our contract. I reached out to Mark and we began working together from there. My husband had a bucket full of questions, as we were first time homebuyers and had never gone through this process before. I had my husband call Mark, and Mark answered all of my husbands questions and eased his mind. We werent even sure if buying was an option for us at that point, and we really wanted Marks honest opinion throughout the entire process. He drove us to/or met us at each of the properties we wanted to look at, and he gave us honest feedback at every single property. We made one prior offer, and then ended up making an offer on the place we now call home. Mark is honest, reliable, and is always there to answer questions-even if we texted him at odd hours. Mark is the one who got us our first dream home-and I fully believe that without Marks help, we would still be renting. Thank you Mark, from the bottom of our hearts-we had a blast having you as our realtor and now we have a lifelong friend/realtor to help us with any future moves. We love our first home and we couldnt be happier! I would definitely recommend Mark and Lima Realty to anyone and everyone!

ZillowVERIFIED Mark helped us find our dream home in Costa Mesa! He was patient and thorough throughout the process and always had our best interest at heart. I highly recommend Mark for his knowledge in the industry, trust and professionalism. He was on top of every detail of the process including finding our home, contract, inspections, financing and escrow. Without his hard work and expertise, we wouldnt have closed.

ZillowVERIFIED We feel honored to leave a review for Mark Lima. Mark is very professional, attentive to detail, and incredibly easy to work with. While he helped us find our perfect home, he answered all of our questions, listened carefully to our preferences, and scheduled viewings based on our likes and dislikes. He gave us ample time to privately explore and talk without pressure. He generally wanted us to get into a home that would exceed our needs. We are thrilled with the home we purchased and grateful to Mark for all of his hard work and dedication. We unequivocally recommend Mark Lima to local buyers and sellers. He is a true gem.

ZillowVERIFIED My experience with Mark was nothing short of fantastic. It's not often that folks sell their homes, so we all need a lot of hand holding and education along the way; Mark was patient, extremely responsive, hands on, professional, and very well versed at the process. Regarding the actual sale of the home, Mark was strategic about the timing of the open house, the asking price of the the home and got us into escrow with 5 offers over asking within a week of putting the home on the market. Working with Mark throughout the escrow process was equally impressive as he was able to handle the chaos and brinksmanship all of the way to close. I would highly recommend his services!

The whole transaction went through smoothly and quickly. He definitely put much effort and would like to try his best to benefit us the most. I would like to recommend Mark to everyone who needs real estate help without hesitation.

ZillowVERIFIED My husband and I can't thank Mark Lima enough for our experience in buying our "empty nest" home. Mr. Lima's knowledge of the area helped narrow our search to the neighborhoods and floor plans that fit within our parameters. Time was of the essence as our home had sold in under a week. His impressive knowledge of the process helped us prepare our financials so that we were identified as overly qualified candidates; so important in this buyers' market! Our offers were accepted for two homes. Mark was able to negotiate the price to tens of thousands below asking price for the one we decided to purchase! We will definitely recommend Mark Lima to our family and friends!

ZillowVERIFIED My fiancA(C) and I were first time homebuyers with not much knowledge on the process. Mark Lima was very professional and made the homebuying experience as simple as one could hope. From showing us tons of different listings thru the whole funding process, Mark was there to make sure everything was handled correctly and promptly. Not once did I feel overwhelmed or misguided with Mark steering the ship. I will recommend Mark to anyone I know who is either buying or selling.

Always willing to go the extra mile, present us with many homes to purchase, helping stage our home for open house and flexible with his time to show and visit various homes.

ZillowVERIFIED Mark was so great to work with. He helped me sell my first home and buy a second. Neither of which are ever easy, but working with him made it a lot easier. He drove me around every weekend for months until I found the perfect house. He definitely knows the area and has a lot of experience handling the not so pleasant parts of buying a home. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.

ZillowVERIFIED Mark Lima was such a great agent to work with when we purchased our first home. He made the whole process a breeze, answered all my questions and I had many of those, and was very quick in response. In fact he made such a great impression that when it came time to sell 2 years later he was the first person I called. Again, he is on top of everything. We hit some snags in the selling process due to the buyers lender and he was quick to get on them to get their mix ups handled quickly. When the time comes for me to need another agent in the area, he will again be our first call. I highly recommend Mark whether first time buyer, seller or looking for a property management company rest assured your getting top notch service and someone willing to go above and beyond to make his clients happy.

ZillowVERIFIED Mark was so great to work with. I do not know a lot about real-estate and Mark made the process so easy. He sold our town house and we made a great profit and were able to put 20 percent down on our new home in Huntington Beach. Mark made the process so easy and kept us laughing the entire time. I highly recommend Mark if you are selling or buying or both.

As a first time home buyer I didn't know what to expect when we started the search for our new home but Mark was there every step of the way. His knowledge of the industry helped us find the perfect home and his "open door" policy made us feel comfortable to contact him anytime. Mark was always looking out for our best interested and made sure we got the house we wanted for a great deal. I refer Mark Lima to all of my family and friends.

ZillowVERIFIED We cannot speak highly enough of the Lima Real Estate Group and Mark Lima in particular. We worked with Mark on the purchase of our home in Orange California. Mark's knowledge of Orange County Real Estate and professionalism allowed us to find our dream home. His ability to make the complex simple and help us navigate the process, made it much easier. His negotiation skills and ability to anticipate also allowed us to countering with an offer that the seller accepted immediately. Mark is very trustworthy, personable, quick to respond when we had questions, knowledge of the process and the market. We knew immediately that we were in good hands and that Mark would take care of us. Mark as also served as an advisor on income properties that we own and his extensive knowledge is another factor to consider Mark. Mark is a truly 5 star realtor and we highly recommend him for your real estate needs!

ZillowVERIFIED Mark has done an excellent job for the customers I have referred to him through my network. He has represented both sellers and buyers for my referrals. The common feedback is that he is very responsive and knowledgeable for that particular market. On two different occasions there were potential issues related to the process, but outside of Mark's role as a RE Broker and he went the extra mile to help get the issues resolved so the sale could successfully move forward. I would not hesitate to refer Mark Lima for any real estate sale. If ever we decide to sell our home, he will be our first call!!

Mark went above and beyond while we house hunted, during Escrow and after getting my keys! He helped me with the inspection and when the former tenant needed to fix a few things before my loan would be approved, Mark initiated the process quickly and the issue was solved right away. I truly have a home that is perfect for me. I am grateful for Mark's professional manner and attentiveness to my needs.
