With his broad business background and strong financial skills, Marc started in real estate in 1999. Previously, Marc worked at NAI of West Michigan and Cushman & Wakefield Inc. He was named Cushman’s West Michigan office’s top salesperson in 2010 (Kalamazoo, Lansing, Grand Rapids, and Holland Offices) and was consistently one of their top salespeople. Before starting in commercial real estate, Marc was a Vice President and Senior Investment Manager with the Parkstone Group of Mutual Funds as part of their Fixed Income Asset Management Team. Marc has spent his entire professional career in West Michigan and firmly believes that developing long-term, trusting relationships with his clients is essential to success. He always stresses putting the client’s interest ahead of merely “getting the deal done” to earn a commission. Marc believes that success in this business is also highly dependent on hard-work. Few brokers work more hours than Marc. Marc’s approach to representing buyers and tenants is a trusted advisor and not a hard-charging salesman. He believes in honesty and provides all the relevant information to his clients, allowing them to determine their best course of action. His approach to representing Landlords and Owners in their buildings’ disposition is to make sure any potential users are aware of the property through Jaqua Realtors’ systematic marketing plan or directly contacting potential users through cold-calls. Essential in this role is a commitment to regular client communication

Client Testimonials
COMMERCIAL
Corporate Real Estate Representation Multiple Assignments
Marc has assisted me in 2 purchases, 1 sale and 5 leases... Marc is a pleasure to work with. He is an active listener, takes his time understanding the buying, selling and leasing needs and caters his plans accordingly. Marc is a great support during negotiations and accomplishes everything with a noticeable degree of integrity and competency that is difficult to find these days. I find it hard to imagine someone else doing a better job than him. Don Danielson, Director of Operations ZAGG (Formerly Mophie)
... I have never been in any real estate transaction that was as difficult as this. It took a total of 8 months, 8 sales agreement addendums, and hundreds of hours of work to complete the sale. Marc kept us in the loop every step of the way, and without his professionalism and determination to close the deal, we would probably still be owners of the building! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
