Mark,
Amber and I were very satisfied with your service. Considering we were moving here from out of state we needed a good agent that kept us informed and was able to represent our interests since we could not be there. You even accompanied the home inspector since we could not and provided essential information to us. We felt you handled everything along the way in a professional manner. You provided timely communication during the whole transaction. We also would like to thank you for taking the time to show us 50+ houses in two days. I would also like to say the mortgage company you are affiliated with Renaissance Lending was also a pleasure to work with. I had shopped around for a mortgage from places like Lendingtree.com and felt Renaissance Lending provided the lowest rate with the least hassle I have ever had in getting a mortgage. In addition they were competent and provided accurate information in a timely manner. Over all we could not be more pleased with the service, the communication, the mortgage, the house we got at the price we got it for. Thanks Mark!

We have done business with Mark Hunke (Real Estate of the Rockies) for more than two years. We have purchased houses through Mark and we have also sold property with Mark.
We place high value on honesty and Mark fits this criteria very well. We have found Mark to be completely open and honest about the many complicated issues one encounters during a real estate transaction. Mark has kept us informed all along the way and we have had time to prepare for each situation that came up. We have found that if one can avoid "surprises" then everything else is manageable. With Mark we knew exactly what to expect and we were able to prepare properly.
When we were looking for property, Mark did extensive research in order to ensure that we got good value. He researched neighborhoods, recently sold property for comparisons, and comparable value for similar neighborhoods. This information allowed us to make good buying decisions.
When we were selling property with Mark, we were pleased with the quick sale even in a "buyers market". We found it to be an advantage that Mark could offer potential buyers financing solutions. This ability not only to sell but to finance widened the field of potential buyers for our property.
Ultimately, every real estate professional must be judged by their results. We highly recommend Mark to anyone needing to buy or sell property. You will find him to be honest, committed, and productive.

Recently we (my husband and I) sold our house in Colorado Springs and needed to find another house in Denver. Although we were not panicky about finding a new place, we wanted to find something as soon as possible. Mark Hunke came highly recommended as a buyer's agent, and we engaged his services in May of 2003. We began commuting from Colorado Springs a couple of times each week in order to check out the numerous houses which seemed to meet our specifications. Mark emailed listings to us each night before we drove to Denver, and we deleted any properties that we felt were unacceptable (although we never deleted very many!). The process was actually quite enjoyable!
I guess the important part of our experience has to do with the excellent job Mark did as our agent. When we found a house that we really liked, we realized right away that it was in need of repairs. If we were going to be able to do everything we wanted to do (including a kitchen renovation and adding three decks) we were going to have to persuade the seller to lower his price--considerably. Mark was a tough negotiator when it came to convincing the seller's agent that she should accept our offer. When the seller countered our offer at ten thousand dollars more than we were willing to pay, Mark talked to the seller's agent again and assured her that she was about to lose our offer. When she met with her client again, he lowered his asking price by ten thousand dollars, and we bought the house. Although the furnace and air conditioner were both in working order, they were twenty years old and needed to be replaced. Mark took this information back to the seller's agent and asked for the replacement costs of these items. The seller agreed.
It's extremely important to hire someone who is going to look out for your interests as a buyer, and as the buyer, we wanted someone of integrity who would aggressively go to bat for us. Because of Mark's hard work, we were able to buy the house we wanted at a price we could afford and still have the resources to make the improvements we wanted to make. Not only will we do business with him again, but we have already recommended him to friends interested in purchasing a home in Denver. We feel very blessed that Mark was the agent we hired.
Sincerely yours,
Danielle and Jerry Woodward
A few months ago, I decided that I wanted to buy a home/townhouse/condo in Colorado. I was unsure if it would be investment property, a fixer upper, a townhouse, a house, and where in the Denver area it would be.
Over the years, I have bought and sold at least 8 homes and was never impressed with the realtors. Being so indecisive, I couldn't imagine any realtor working with me but I was pleasantly surprised when I met Mark Hunke.
Mark, is a professional, knowledgeable and he "cares" about his clients. Mark traveled all over showing me properties in Nedenberg, Golden, downtown Denver, and the suburbs. Each time I was interested in a property Mark took it upon himself to review any and all restrictions pertaining to the property. I have never had a realtor do that. All they wanted to do was sell, sell, sell, with the line "this is a good deal."
At least one property I had my heart set on, Mark told me to think of all the pros and cons before making an offer. If it weren't for Mark and his input, I probably would have bought it, and then found out it was not right for me.
After much running around, Mark showed me a house (which I am happy to say is mine) and negotiated a great deal. If more realtors had the qualities that Mark possesses, the public would have a more trustworthy opinion of realtors in general.
I'm glad I had the opportunity to work with Mark, and would and will recommend him to anyone buying or selling a home.
Very truly yours,
Ellen Schattner
Mr. Hunke did not treat us as we were "just clients" he went out of his way to make us feel comfortable buying a house and made a special effort to make us feel like he was a friend of the family. He took time to answer any of our questions, concerns and most of all our fears. Mr. Hunke was available night or day with any of the listed things that came up. Mark went as far as to help us get the house up to par for the appraisal inspections and did it on his personal time. In fact we would not of been able to get into the house had it not been for his help. I can't say enough about how much he helped my family and I. He is by far the greatest person I have ever had to deal with buying anything. I will always recommend him to everyone I come into contact.
Thanks again Mark on the job well done.

Hello Mark,
This is our response to the survey. We felt the communication was very good on your part and very timely which helped us a lot. Also, we appreciate your feedback on the homes we looked at and gave us a feeling that you were trying to meet our goals in our price and needs that Shawn was looking for.
I thought your suggestion on doing the video on the sewer was very helpful. Overall, we would give you a thumbs up and great job with helping my son Mark.
