You’ve worked hard to build real estate wealth. When the stakes are high — an estate, a sale, a trust transition — you deserve one expert who sees the complete picture. Not three advisors pulling in different directions.
You’re managing a separate appraiser, agent, and estate attorney — and no one is coordinating the full picture. Every conversation restarts from scratch.
You’ve been given different answers by different professionals, and you’re not sure who to trust with a decision this important. The stakes are too high to guess.
You know major real estate decisions have financial consequences — but without the right expertise, you can’t be sure you’re getting the full value your property deserves.
You shouldn’t have to navigate a major real estate decision without a trusted expert in your corner. That’s exactly what Mark Hearn Real Estate Trust Advisory is built for.
We know how overwhelming major real estate decisions can feel — especially when you’re trying to coordinate appraisals, sales, and estate planning with different professionals pulling you in different directions.
Mark has been there, on both sides of the table, for 40 years. He understands what it costs — financially and emotionally — to navigate a major transaction without the full picture. And he built this practice so that you’ll never have to.
Since 1986, Mark has guided property owners, estate families, and investors through every major California market cycle — the S&L Crisis, the Northridge Earthquake, the Sub-Prime collapse. He is one of the only advisors in Southern California who holds both a California Certified Residential Appraiser license and a California Real Estate Salesperson license simultaneously — which means your appraisal, your sale, and your trust strategy are all coordinated by one expert who holds the complete picture.
