Greater Chattanooga home buyers and home sellers will be most interested to learn how Mark Spain Real Estate differs from traditional real estate brokerages. All agents at Mark Spain Real Estate work as a team to serve clients and provide an unparalleled client experience. Its agents serve clients on only one side of a transaction, which allows clients’ goals to remain the top priority, unlike at traditional brokerages where an agent can represent both the buyer and seller in a sale and potentially create a conflict of interest. Every agent receives hundreds of hours of ongoing training annually from Mark Spain Real Estate’s in-house training department.

One of the company’s core values is to remain client-focused, and, as a result, Mark Spain Real Estate has earned nearly 10,000 5-star reviews and is the No. 1 most reviewed real estate firm in the United States. Mark Spain Real Estate also offers a unique Guaranteed Offer program for home sellers, allowing them the opportunity of a hassle-free, no showings sale.
