Why Work With Us?

Mark not only made this process seamless he helped us not become discouraged after two offers being outbid, but he also kept us motivated in the process of house hunting. He helped us close our 3rd attempt and we were able to get our Home. Mark was always available to answer any of our questions during the closing process and still checks in on us to ensure we are taken care of.

Mark found us our perfect starter home! As first-time home buyers, Mark made the entire process so seamless and much less daunting. He was always available for showings, answered all of our questions in an easy-to-understand way, and kept us feeling optimistic throughout the whole process. I couldn’t recommend him more!

- Danielle & Mike, Buyers, Stoneham

Mark was a terrific guide throughout the process of buying our first home. He was always available for showings, very responsive to texts and calls, all while guiding us seamlessly through the home buying process. We ended up in our dream home and recommend working with Mark to find yours too!

- Luke & Ashley, Buyers, North Andover

Mark just helped us find our new home and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. We were first time home buyers and a little intimidated by the market conditions around Boston, but Mark was a steady guide from our first intro call with him all the way through the walkthrough prior to closing day. Highly recommend!

I've lived in Arlington for over 20 years and owned a few houses in town. My kids have grown up, and it came time to sell "the big house". I wasn't sure what to do, so I called Steve McKenna. Steve and Mark Garbino made the process painless. I could not have asked for more. Their team was very professional and very good. The house looked spectacular for the showing. They made everything easy and explained the process clearly. Mark was there every step of the way. I was impressed and grateful.

Steve McKenna and Mark Garbino were excellent seller representatives for our sale in Arlington. They and their team expertly guided us through the process from organizing the house for showings through pricing, showings, evaluating offers, and the eventual sale.

We worked with Mark Garbino from Steve McKenna & The Home Advantage Team at Gibson Sotheby’s International Realty to purchase our first single-family home in Reading, MA, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience.

We’re so thankful for all of Mark’s help and would gladly work with him and the team again for our next home!

We recently worked with Steve and Mark to sell our home in Woburn, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the beginning, they were professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. They provided a detailed market analysis, a marketing plan to showcase our home beautifully, and quick communication every step of the way. Thank you, Steve and Mark, for your outstanding service. We highly recommend working with this fantastic real estate team.

I worked with Steve McKenna’s team in purchasing my first property and it was an amazing experience. Steve, Mark, and his team are so helpful and have vast knowledge and experience that made the process very smooth. I learned so much throughout this process. I look forward to working with Steve and his team again in the future!

Mark and Steve helped us with every step of the buying & selling process moving from Woburn to Arlington. Every house we wanted to see they were available 7 days a week with no hesitation to set up viewings. Could not recommend them enough to anyone looking for a realtor.
