Mark was absolutely the best realtor I've ever worked with, and I have worked with several. Very professional and courteous.

He went above and beyond to make sure things get done. Incredible photography work. Our first day of open house absolutely blew the doors off.

Mark was very helpful during the whole process. Buying and selling a home is very stressful but Mark and his team were organized and supportive to make it a good experience.

I had a great experience with Mark. He was professional and prompt throughout the sale of my home. I would definitely recommend him, particularly as an area specialist in the Anatolia / Kavala area.

Mark did a wonderful job marketing and selling our home. Always responsive, he guided us through the entire process. Great experience! I highly recommend him, if you are looking for an agent.

I had a one-of-a-kind home, and probably the nicest home in Anatolia community.

Out of the 3 realtors I screened, Mark Daya was the most knowledgeable about the community (well, he lives there) and also was not hesitant about pricing it higher than all homes sold in this area since the real estate prices took a dive in 2008. In fact the last home that fetched the highest price in the community was my home in 2008.

I liked Mark instantly because he came across as intelligent, aggressive without being pushy, confident and knew the area, and I felt that he was the right fit. The other 2 - one was a realtor who managed my previous property for years and then sold it when the market recovered; and the other was an ex-colleague who became a realtor. So Mark was my choice over 2 people whom I have known for years.

Mark's approach was systematic and professional. He had a fabulous photographer who did both video and still photos of the home. Mark also made sure he got the best photos as possible to properly represent the home - for example taking photos outside of the home when flowers were blooming at the end of Summer and my home was likely to be available for sale in Winter when there would no longer be flowers.

Since I was out of state, Mark did some legwork for me in arranging for cleaners and got it ready for showing. He was enthusiastic, did several open houses and followed up with potential buyers.

I added another 200K to the house on top of the more than 640K upgrades by the developer and I knew I was going to get a small fraction of what I had put in. While I did not get the price I really wanted but I was happy with the outcome. Mark kept me updated from the time the property was listed to the 3 offers that I received. I also want to compliment Mark for not trying to steer me to the other 2 offers where he would have been representing the potential buyers and thus more commission to him.

BTW, Mark also helped me get the cable boxes and modem back to Comcast when I terminated the services on closing.

I highly recommend Mark to anyone looking for a realtor to sell or buy a home. He is intelligent, energetic, ethical and a professional. It has been a true pleasure to work with him.

Mark was very pleasant to work with from beginning to end. He got our home sold at the price we were satisfied with. His professionalism and knowledge of the real estate market made our transaction very smooth. He is very responsive and made sure that his clients were legally protected at all times. I definitely will recommend mark to anyone that is looking to sell or buy. Thanks mark!

I came upon Mark by chance. My neighbors had their house listed and my agent at the time could not get my house sold. Mark was very knowledgeable, professional, honest, and very easy to work with. I hired Mark and he was able to get me a full price offer before the house even hit the market and closed the deal quickly. He made this experience very easy and trouble-free. It was a pleasure to work with Mark and would recommend him to anyone wanting to work with a realtor that they can trust. Once again thank you Mark for everything, this paragraph doesn't even compare to how grateful and appreciative that I am at the work you produced. Thank you.

We were looking for a new home the area. Mark was very helpful. He was knowledgeable of the market and the area. He was very helpful when it came to navigating all the paperwork, and always had answers to our questions. We recommend Mark if your in the market or just have questions about the market. Mark is a true professional and a very nice guy. Thanks Mark for your help in finding our home.

Mark recently helped us buy a home in Kavala Ranch. We were first time home buyers and Mark's Knowledge, understanding and honesty helped us to make the right decision. He had a good sense for the value of houses and we saw several houses go by for the approximate value he stated. He was always available to show homes even on a short notice. He gave great advice and I was really impressed with his knowledge about the area and housing market. Mark been incredible and we are very happy with the results. Highly recommended!

Mark was highly recommended by our daughter. We were looking at purchasing a house in the area where our daughter lives and we wanted to see a house that was just listed. He happily agreed to do a video tour to show us the house. He is very responsive and accommodating. We've read that not all realtors show houses that are short sales. Mark showed us a house that we really like even though it was a short sale. He explained to us what short sales meant and what to expect. He is very knowledgeable of the area. We ended up finding our home with Mark's assistance. When we told him we wanted to put an offer, he submitted the offer that night which is $5k less than the listing price. Within a month we signed the escrow papers. Our three year-old granddaughter calls our home the "dream house". It has been a pleasure working with Mark.

We were told about Mark by friends of ours in Anatolia. I called him and he was very courteous and a straight shooter about our home value. He met that same evening with a portfolio of our property and comparables. He marketed out home very well and we had a buyer in about 1 week. He knows Anatolia homes very well!

He was very engaging from the first meeting with a strong since of being able to get a really good price for our property. Since we had kept our house very presentable for future buyers, he went all out with the advertising and negotiated a price beyond our expectations.

Mark will do anything in his power to help sell your property and find you another. He even dedicates his time to solve personal problems. Very helpful. I was going thru a divorce with a spouse that was not agreeable to anything. He helped me get our divorce final and the house sold.

Mark Daya was very professional, honest, and easy to work with. He was able to get us a full price offer and close the deal quickly without any drama. This property was unique in that it was in a trust, with successor trustees either in another country or of limited capacity, but Mark found a way. He was also very helpful with his contacts, (gardeners, cleaners, etc.) in getting the property ready to market. I would highly recommend using Mark Daya's services and I intend to work with him again in the future. Michelle Morrison

Mark said he had the tools and the plan to sell our house and he did. When other Realtors told us to shoot low, he said they were wrong and set about proving it.

Mark sold our Home in under a month, listened to me during the Negotiations, for more than the other guys wanted to list it.

If you live in Anatolia, you would be crazy to go with anyone else.

I was looking for my first investment property and ran into Mark when i went to see an open house, he seemed like a very honest guy and someone i wanted to work with to buy my first home. Asked him if he can be my Agent not just for that home but till something materializes. That probably was the best thing i did during my property search.

Made 3 offers before one was accepted, all through Mark. He has been very candid in his inputs, i trust him so much that i made offers without even seeing units.

During inspection phase, there was an issue with the unit i am purchasing. I am not exaggerating when i say, he cared more than me about really getting to the root of that issue and resolving with sellers. He looks out for you and with not even a little bit of selfish motive, he has been totally awesome.

This is the first review ever i am writing for anything..ever...So that goes to show how happy i am with service Mark provided.

Thanks Mark,
Girish

We just sold our home at 11009 Brattleboro Circle in Mather. Escrow closed on 11/24/15. Our home sold in 10 days, we had multiple offers. Our real estate agent was Mark Daya. Even though the appraiser did not consider any of the many upgrades my home had and appraised our home at only $393,000. Mark was able to get $3K over our asking price of $400K. Mark is an excellent negotiator and a real professional. He comes highly recommended.

Mark was extremely patient with me during my home buying process. There were many personal bumps in the road that I had to deal with and he stuck by me through it all! He quickly learned my style and taste in a home and was never "pushy" when it came to me putting in an offer. I highly recommend him.

When we invited Mark Daya to our Rancho Cordova house to interview him about listing our home, we knew very quickly that he was the right agent for the job. He indicated immediately that he is familiar with our neighborhood, in fact, is a resident, and has handled many home sales in the area. His personality and professionalism sealed the deal, and we asked him to sell our home for us. So, he did. On the first day! Then, through the few weeks between contract and closing, he was always close to the phone to answer our questions, and reassure us that all of the customary worries would be ironed out. And they were. With his guidance, the sale closed on schedule, the deal was done, the new owners got their dream house, and we concluded what can sometimes be a stressful event. I highly recommend Mark as a great real estate agent.

Mark came highly recommended. We would absolutely use him again! He was quick with responses and went above and beyond to help us sell our home. He was very organized and prompt to have open houses to get our home sold quickly.

Mark did an excellent job selling our house. He was quick and efficient. Very personable and friendly. He was able to answer all my questions, was always available when we needed him and most important he sold our house very quickly. I would absolutely recommend him.

Mark helped me to sell my home after finding us a home in the Anatolia area. He had contacts with expertise in staging and taking pictures of our old house to make it look its very best. The house had multiple serious offers in just two days of putting it on the market. An excellent outcome! Thanks Mark Daya at Realty World Dominion.

He is professional. Heis easy to work with. He returns phone call promtly, discusses the pro and con about my selling property location and pricing fairly and accordently. He understand real estate markets. I will be happy to recommand him to future sellers or buyers. sincerely, Luis

Mark was very helpful and proficient with my home buying needs. He had a very clear understanding of what i needed and what the market had for me. He went out of his way to make sure all steps were followed in the process and had great contacts for closing ie inspectors, loan officers etc. I highly recommend him.

Mark Daya was amazing! We met Mark while going to an open house on a property that we realized was much too big for our needs. We discussed with him some of our requirements and within just a few days he found us the house that we would eventually move in to. Mark was extremely professional and very patient with us and very knowledgeable as well. We had a lot of questions and Mark was very quick to respond with the appropriate answers. He was also very resourceful in finding us all the other things pertaining to purchasing. We were satisfied with the purchase and everything that was in the contract but Mark still managed to get us additional perks on top of the already deal. He introduced us to lenders, inspectors, carpet cleaners, etc. All these services that he referred us to provided us with exceptional service. The best part of working with Mark was that he was willing to go above and beyond his responsibility as an agent. On our move in day, he came out of his own pocket to tie up some loose ends that the sellers left unaddressed. That was really something that we appreciated so much! We genuinely like Mark as a person and as a professional. We highly recommend Mark Daya to anyone who is in the market for buying or selling a house.

Mark did an excellent job in finding us a home. He is very knowledgeable about local market, extremely patient in showing houses, and very responsive in phone calls or emails. He helped us find our first home in less than 2 months. I would definitely recommend Mark to anyone looking for home.

I really enjoyed mark, outside of being such a pleasant guy I loved his calm way of explaining things to me to keep me informed in all the information that I needed to know. he always took my calls or called me back as soon as he could. I felt that he worked for me and cared about what was on my mind. he did a great job getting us into our new home, and we are very happy.

Mark was very knowledgeable about the area and met our needs when presented. He was very east to work with and when push came to shove, he stepped up and represented us very well. Our needs and interests were at his highest priority and it definitely showed. Even when we though we were not in the ball game with a house out of our reach, he made sure and stuck with it. Bottom line, if it were not for Mark, we would not be living at the house of our dreams.

Mark is a closer. He gets the deal done and knows when to act. He also has great connections that allowed us to buy a home in CA while residing in Shanghai. Always prompt and professional too.

Mr. Daya is very professional and knowledgeable, not to mention patient. Mark helped us get our dream home which was a short sell. He somehow managed to get it at the price we were wanting to pay with his great negotiating skills. A year later, we asked Mark to help us sell our rental unit. He was amazing and we had an offer at our first open house. We will definately use Mark's services in the future once we are in the market again.
