ABOUT

marcos

merCado

As a local Sacramento resident who was born and raised in the area, my passion for real estate and investing in the city is tied to my roots here. Growing up in Downtown and later in East Sacramento and seeing the growth and development of the city and the surrounding areas have really been incredible. From all the trees that line our streets to the vibrant art scene, it has been an easy city to fall in love with.  That passion has extended into my real estate profession, and the exploration of the unique real estate environment and history that make up our area.

Client Testimonials

The decision to sell our home after 18 years, where we got married and started our family, was not an easy one. Fortunately for us we found a partner and advocate in Marcos who was able to guide us through the process with great care. To make matters more challenging we had been out of the home and area for more than 10 years and were working with Marcos from 3,000 miles away. His history, experience and knowledge of the East Sacramento market cannot be understated and the distance between us was a non-issue. Marcos has a patient, pleasant disposition, he is an excellent communicator, always prompt and timely in his follow up and relentless in his follow through. We recommend Marcos 100% and could not be more grateful the service and results he provided!
