Luxe Places International Realty - San Rafael

Looking to sell your property, buy a new home, or just need some expert real estate advice?

About
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 and daughter and have been a full-time realtor for over 11 years and a real estate investor for over 24 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 also 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 some 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, all of which have their prominent nuances and individual character. I am prepared to discuss all 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 adventure was backpacking around the world at age 18 for 8 months while working odd jobs along the way. A sizable portion of my earnings is donated to various charities that protect our environment and open space.

Call 415.235.1763 to discuss your real estate dreams, aspirations, goals, and objectives.

I have been casually acquainted with John for about 14 years now. I have always been impressed by his sincerity and humble demeanor. We bumped into each other about 8 or nine months ago and he mentioned that he was working in real estate. A couple of months after that my wife and I found ourselves in a position to purchase our first home. I did not hesitate to tell my wife that I thought John would be the perfect person to help us make it become a reality. John guided us through the entire process and kept us from making a rookie mistake on one or two places that we really did like. In the end, we were able to get a place that checks all the boxes and is more than we could have asked for or imagined. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend John to anyone who is interested in buying or selling a home.

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.

John went above and beyond for my family and I. He made the entire process easy to understand, explained everything, stood with us from the very beginning to the very end. John and his crew did an amazing job! I would recommend him and his team to anyone needing any kind of help with real estate. He is knowledgeable, lots of experience, patient, kind, honest, communicates well, and hard working. Thanks John!

We recently sold our condo with John's help. We decided to list our property with him because he had sold multiple units in the area, and we are so glad we did. Even though, we are in a sellers market, Jhon did a lot of work off front to be well prepared for the showing. As result, we had multiple strong offers the first day.

Selling our house was difficult because of the sentimental attachment, but John's easy going and nice personality made the process easier.
