Who I Am

Not Another
Realtor. Never
Was.

I don't just list properties. I investigate them, tell their stories, film them from the sky, and build content empires around the communities they live in.

01
You Get Mark
Not an assistant. Not a team. Every showing, every negotiation, every call — me.
02
Cinematic Marketing
Your home gets professional drone footage, cinema-quality video, and exposure through Discover CT's audience.
03
Honest Numbers
I don't inflate list prices to win listings. I give you the real number — then deliver above it.
04
House Detective
Every home has a history. I uncover it. Buyers make better decisions. Sellers command better prices.

The Investigation

Every House
Has A
Story

Most Realtors show homes.
Mark investigates them.

▸
Ownership history and what changed hands with the deed — and what didn't.
▸
Architectural details most buyers walk past without knowing what they mean.
▸
Neighborhood evolution — the context that determines whether a home is a good investment or a liability.
▸
Hidden property stories that buyers never discover — until House Detective opens the case.

Before Drone
Marketing Was
Mainstream

Years before aerial photography became standard practice, Mark was reshaping Connecticut real estate marketing.
When most agents still relied on standard MLS photos and weekend open houses, Mark Pires was already airborne — literally. A pioneer of drone-based property storytelling in Connecticut, Mark recognized before almost anyone in the industry that real estate marketing was about to undergo a cinematic transformation.

The Stamford Advocate took notice. In a feature story that captured what was happening at the frontier of property marketing, Mark's approach to immersive visual storytelling was held up as a model for where the entire industry was heading.

Most agents eventually bought drones. Very few were the ones who changed what was possible.

Client Reviews

What They
Say.

★★★★★
Mark sold our Westport home in 4 days — $85,000 over asking. His marketing strategy was unlike anything I'd seen. He listed Thursday, had 22 showings by Sunday, and managed every detail flawlessly.

★★★★★
We moved from Brooklyn and had no idea where to start. Mark spent three Saturdays driving us through different towns before we'd even signed anything. He knew every street, every school, every restaurant.

★★★★★
Mark told me what my house was actually worth — not what I wanted to hear. We priced it right, got multiple offers, and closed above list in a week. His honesty saved me from a costly mistake.
