Real Estate Perfectionist (SM)
REALTOR
Welcome to FindingSeattle.com! I am Mark Gutkowski, founder and full time REALTOR specializing in the Greater Metropolitan Seattle Real Estate market. Chances are you are considering buying or selling a home and you are wondering if I am the right person to help you. Let's find out!
I am originally from Denver Colorado, transplanting myself to Seattle in January of 1992. Since that time I have lived all over the city. Initally I rented, living in a beautiful craftsman house on Captiol Hill and then a new condo/apartment closer to downtown. It wasn't long before I purchased my first home in 1994. A beautiful small craftsman cottage on North Beacon which I spent many years remodeling.
Now, several years and several real estate investments later, I live north of the city in Green Lake. I have close friends and professional contacts in nearly every neighborhood across Seattle, Bellevue and the surrounding areas. Although I love to travel and try to do so frequently, I am always excited to come home to my city, my home and my amazing family.
I look forward to having the chance to help you find your piece of this wonderful city.
My Mission
I want to earn the right to be your real estate advisor, trusted with every property investment needed to meet your financial goals. I strive to continually provide industry leading services, expertise and innovations that will meet your needs, even before you know those needs exist. I hope to share with you the enjoyment I have of my work by making each of your property transactions straight forward, fun and rewarding!
