Our Team
R. Mark Crews, Lic. Real Estate Broker FL & GA
Coming from a small agricultural community on the shore of Lake Okeechobee in South Florida gave Mark the foundation and the early understanding of how important it was to be a good steward of the land. While still in high school, and a member of Future Farmers of America, he started his cattle herd over 50 years ago, he’s still a cattleman today. Mark has a great knowledge and passion for the outdoors, wildlife and cattle. So, it was inescapable that his future would always revolve around land and agriculture; but he also lived in Palm Beach county, so he saw first-hand the huge opportunities of investment properties and real estate.
Mark has over 23 years’ experience in agricultural real estate, land acquisitions and residential development with various companies, including a national land company. As a member of the prestigious REALTORS® Land Institute he is an Accredited Land Consultant (ALC), an elite group of over 500 land specialists around the world. Mark was distinguished in March of 2019 as an APEX 2018 National Producer by Realtors Land Institute.
As an Accredited Land Consultant, Mark has access to a multitude of resources to best serve his clients, with experience in 1031 and Reverse 1031 Exchanges, also Self-directed IRA’s and Conservation Easements. He has earned the expertise to help guide you as a Buyer or Seller, so you are going forward with the knowledge you need to make an informed decision when purchasing or selling your property.
This did not just “happen”, his success came from constantly learning about the possibilities of every piece of dirt he looks at and all its characteristic and resources, from the soil and water, the current market, to the location. Conveying to clients the potential of a property as an investment, a ranch, farm, recreational property, timber tract or whatever it may be. Mark takes great satisfaction in the benefits he gives his client from his extensive knowledge.
He strives to make all real estate transactions for his clients as convenient and effortless as possible, from beginning to end, by providing you the services you expect in a prompt and professional manner. Mark’s parents instilled a great work ethic in him at a young age. Mark grew-up in a family that the love of God, country and family were imperative, he learned by example that your integrity was everything, you must always be a man of your word and you must always do the right thing.
