What Brings You Here?

1

I Want to Sell My Home

Thinking about selling and want to understand what your home may be worth and how to position it for the market? I can help you evaluate pricing, preparation, timing, marketing, and the best strategy for your goals.

I Need to Sell As-Is

Not every property needs to be repaired, renovated, cleaned out, or prepared for the traditional market. If condition, convenience, or timing matters more than maximizing retail value, an as-is strategy may make sense.

I'm Dealing With a Difficult Property Situation

Inherited property. Foreclosure concerns. Major repairs. Tenants. Financial pressure. An unwanted property. Real estate gets complicated sometimes. The first step is understanding the options available to you.

You May Have More Than One Option

One of the biggest mistakes a homeowner can make is assuming there is only one way to sell. Different situations call for different strategies.

Traditional Sale

For homeowners who want to expose the property to the market and maximize potential value. This may involve preparing the home, professional marketing, showings, inspections, financing, and a traditional closing.

As-Is / Investor Sale

For homeowners who value speed, simplicity, or convenience—or have a property that needs significant repairs or cleanup. An as-is option may reduce the amount of preparation required before selling.

Alternative Solution

Sometimes a property or financial situation doesn't fit neatly into a traditional sale or cash offer. Depending on the circumstances, it may be worth exploring seller financing, creative financing, or another transaction structure.

Real Estate Advice Before Real Estate Pressure

I'm Mark Jones, an Arizona real estate agent and investor. Because I work on both the traditional and investment sides of real estate, I look at properties a little differently.

My first question isn't: "How can I get this listing?" or "How cheaply can I buy this property?"

It's: "What is actually going to make the most sense for this homeowner?"

Sometimes the answer is a traditional sale. Sometimes it's an as-is sale. Sometimes the best decision is to wait, repair, rent, refinance, or explore another solution entirely. My job is to help you understand the options so you can make an informed decision.

Who I Help

I work with Arizona homeowners, buyers, investors, and referral partners dealing with a wide range of real estate situations, including:

  • Traditional home sales
  • Inherited properties
  • Homes needing major repairs
  • Pre-foreclosure situations
  • Rental properties & tenant issues
  • Expired listings
  • FSBO sellers
  • Investment properties
  • Fix-and-flip opportunities
  • Buy-and-hold investments
  • Unusual or complicated situations

If you're not sure where your situation fits, that's okay. You don't need to know the solution before you call.

Real Estate From Both Sides of the Table

Working as both an agent and investor gives me a practical view of the market. I look at property condition, current market value, potential after-repair value, repair costs, selling costs, financing considerations, holding costs, timeline, risk, and most importantly—your goals.

That means the conversation can go beyond simply asking "What can we list it for?" and instead focus on "What outcome are we actually trying to achieve?"

Clear Options

Understand the possible paths before deciding.

Straightforward Communication

No unnecessary real estate jargon or pressure.

Realistic Numbers

Decisions should be based on the actual market—not unrealistic assumptions.

A Practical Next Step

Once we understand the situation, we identify what needs to happen next.
