" Mark was absolutely amazing! As first-time home-buyers, my husband and I were very nervous and unsure of ourselves because we had no idea what we were doing. Right off the bat, Mark listened to us and asked all the right questions and helped us find our dream home in just a few weeks! Not only is he responsive and extremely knowledgeable about our neighborhood, he is so personable and pleasant! He helped us feel informed and confident every step of the process. l highly recommend Mark Becker to anyone looking to buy or sell and would recommend him to my own family! " - Alex and Wes

"Mark was a joy to work with! From our first meeting to our closing, he was extremely attentive to our needs and was confident about the steps we needed to take to prepare our home for sale. But his help didn’t stop after the closing. With his keen eye, he helped me decorate my new home and pushed me to take a risk with wallpaper, which now makes me smile every day. He will be the one I call when I’m ready to sell again. " - Tarin and Steve

"As a first-time buyer, Mark did a great job at walking me through all the steps involved. He listened to what l was looking for and was incredibly thoughtful about matching my preferences with potential listings. However, he also suggested I look at a property I wasn't interested in and I ended up loving it and buying it! He knows his stuff" - Jennifer

About Mark

Mark Becker’s unique background brings an extensive array of skills and experience that benefit his clients in many ways. Prior to establishing Becker Rapp Residential with business partner Amy Rapp, Becker spent two decades in senior marketing and fundraising roles with Chicago-area nonprofits. In these capacities, he developed a keen ability to understand market positioning, branding, and targeted outreach. “One size does not fit all,” says Becker, “each organization required an individualized approach, just like every real estate client requires individualized attention and unique strategies based on their goals.

As a lifelong Chicagoan, Mark has extensive personal experience in buying, renovating and selling a variety of properties. With an eye on every detail and attention to the bottom line, he brings this knowledge and experience to his clients to help them best prepare their homes for the market, so they look their best, sell quickly, and achieve the highest returns.

Mark has established a well-rounded client base, working with sellers, buyers, investors and relocation clients on properties ranging from single-family homes to condominiums within the Chicago market. In addition, Becker Rapp Residential has consistently ranked among the top teams. “It is so rewarding to serve my client’s needs and I thank them for trusting me,” he says. “We all know that selling or buying real estate can be a very emotional experience. I want to ensure my clients are well informed and supported, smiling throughout the process, and that I exceed their expectations.”

Because of his prior experience in the nonprofit sector, Mark was also asked to lead the charitable foundation at his previous brokerage. In this role he defined their mission; partnered with an innovative nonprofit, New Story, and raised the necessary funds to begin building a community of homes in Morelos, Mexico for families in need. “It’s the perfect blending of my personal and professional passions. I believe in every endeavor we should focus on what we can give back,” he says. “I am thrilled that Compass has a strong commitment to charitable giving through Compass Cares."
