About Mark VanderWal

Real estate is not about paperwork or transactions. It is about you, your equity, your future, and your peace of mind. My job is to protect those things and guide you through the process with clarity and confidence. Too often people trust their biggest financial decision to someone who dabbles in real estate, but you deserve more than that. When you are selling I make sure your home shines with professional marketing and gets in front of the right buyers. When you are buying I fight to secure the right home at the right price while giving you the knowledge to feel confident every step of the way. What sets me apart is how I work for my clients. You will always know where things stand because communication and trust are non negotiable. I bring expertise in pricing, timing, and strategy paired with relentless advocacy that puts your goals first. In the midst of the market's chaos I stay calm, focused, and competitive where it matters most in negotiations. Along the way I have been honored as a 2X ICON Award winner with eXp Realty, named one of the Top 200 Realtors in West Michigan, featured as a Grand Rapids Magazine Real Estate All Star, and consistently ranked in the top 5 percent of Realtors in Michigan. But at the end of the day clients do not just see me as an agent. They walk away knowing they have found their person.
Community Involvement
Alongside Heidi, I support Crowned Free, a fashion brand with a mission to fight human trafficking, which allows us to use business as a way to bring freedom and hope to others.
HOBBIES/INTEREST
Outside of real estate I'm a hybrid athlete who loves running, lifting, faith, family, and the outdoors.
FAMILY
I've been married to Heidi for over 29 years, and we're blessed with three adult children who are the heart of our family.

Mark has amazing responsiveness and would help answer questions and ease concerns whether it was morning, noon, or night. He made time to call or meet during the week and on weekends, and he provided a wonderfully compiled checklist for home-buyers. As a first time home buyer, I highly recommend going with Mark.

I highly recommend Mark. Typically, I am not a fan of brokers. Mark has changed my mind. I live out of state and was selling a property that I owned in Michigan. I am not trusting by my own profession, as I am paid to be cynical and find problems. I must say, working with Mark was an excellent experience. His advice was spot on, his responsiveness excellent (particularly since I am out of state), and his ability to develop numerous offers for my property, which had remained unsolved with the prior Broker, was excellent. I only wish I could transplant him to New York City to handle my affairs here!

Mark is a 5-star stellar consultative realtor who is a pleasure to know and work with. From Day One when Mark reached out to us to our sitting at the closing table with the title company, Mark was professional, engaging, beyond knowledgeable and always putting our interests-and-needs first in our home-buying process. Courteous-and-responsive, Mark was patient, incredibly-skillful with his offer writing and while were aware that he had several clients he was working through the process simultaneously- we always felt like we were a priority and on the top of his list for finding a quality home - even with our smaller budget. Cannot recommend Mark enough.
