Mark Baker
Founder & Employing Broker
My clients' satisfaction is my top priority. I earn their trust because I consistently deliver exceptional results. I have helped buyers secure the best deals, saving them significant money, while ensuring sellers maximize their profits. With extensive experience and expertise in real estate, negotiations, and marketing, I work relentlessly to meet my clients’ needs and achieve the best possible outcomes—whether they’re buying or selling.
My approach and unique value
My approach to real estate is grounded in trust, integrity, and a commitment to securing the best possible deal for my clients. As one of Denver's top real estate professionals, my clients know that I am fully dedicated to serving their best interests at all times. Rather than simply being a salesperson, I position myself as a trusted consultant, prioritizing my clients’ goals and delivering exceptional service every step of the way.
I am passionate about helping my clients build long-term financial wealth through real estate, which has fostered a highly productive business driven by repeat clients and referrals.
With over 25 years of experience investing in real estate, I bring a unique perspective to every transaction. My ability to evaluate properties as investments rather than through emotional lenses gives me a distinct edge in negotiations, making me one of the top negotiators in the industry. As an owner of multiple rental properties, a fix-and-flip investor, and having built nearly 150 homes and multi-million-dollar developments, I offer an unparalleled depth of knowledge in real estate investment. My expertise extends across all facets of the industry, from negotiating and marketing to providing insightful guidance whether buying or selling homes or investment properties. I take great pride in helping my clients navigate the complexities of the real estate market.
I offer a comprehensive, full-service experience. By surrounding myself with a network of the finest home inspectors, mortgage loan officers, home stagers, and contractors, I ensure that my clients have access to top-tier professionals throughout the process. I am deeply committed to making each of my clients’ real estate journey both successful and enjoyable.
City2Summit Realty
When I founded City2Summit Realty, my vision was simple: to create a brokerage built on honesty, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to my clients’ success. I wanted to remove the corporate red tape and offer a more personalized, high-touch experience—one that truly prioritizes the needs of buyers and sellers.
Why a Boutique Brokerage Matters
With years of experience as a top-performing Realtor and Property Investment Specialist in Colorado and nationally, I’ve developed a strong foundation of innovative marketing tools, educational resources, and best practices—all backed by a trusted network of industry professionals. This allows City2Summit to provide clients with exceptional exposure, cutting-edge strategies, and a competitive edge in the ever-changing real estate market.
Unlike large franchise brokerages, City2Summit operates with efficiency, flexibility, and a client-first approach. This means:
Faster decision-making and problem-solving—no corporate delays, just swift and strategic action.
The ability to adapt and pivot quickly—staying ahead of market shifts, trends, and technology.
Tailored marketing strategies—customized to highlight the unique value of each property.
Direct and consistent communication—ensuring you’re always informed and supported.
