Success Stories
Russell Grether is a great realtor and person. He took care of me as if I were family. Russell and Tony are the best at what they do (skills) and go above and beyond what is required (commitment). I highly recommend The Mark & Grether Group to anyone who needs a realtor and wants highly professional top-grade experience.

We bought a home with a 30 day close and would not have been able to pull it off without Russell and Tony. They proactively lead us every step of the way with excellent referrals and advice. During the bidding process, their deep knowledge of the local Malibu market was very evident and extremely helpful in coming to a fair purchase price. I will work with them again on any Malibu real estate deals.

Russell and Tony did a terrific job for us in selling our home in Malibu. It was an especially difficult sale since the home needed a new septic system and as such, the buyer needed to be an all-cash buyer. Given the septic system issue, no mortgage company would take on a loan. So not only did the buyer need to be all cash, they needed to be willing to take on a septic system install that could have cost upwards of $250,000. Given the challenges of finding this kind of buyer, Russell and Tony did a terrific job in regards to the speed of finding the right buyer and negotiating a very good deal for both buyer and seller. Linda and I would recommend this group to anyone as they are not only diligent, but personable and creative in getting the job done quickly, efficiently, and effectively. We would be willing to speak to anybody who needed a personal and professional reference for this Compass group.

Amazing real estate agents! Sold my condo in Malibu for over 25K over asking and in one month! Made everything simple and worked around my timetable. If you're looking for a great, hard-working real estate agents, Russell and Tony are the guys to go to.

Russell did an amazing job from start to finish with the sale of our family home. We especially appreciated his positivity, great communication skills, and hard work ethic! He and his fabulous team marketed the home with great success resulting in much interest and multiple offers. They made the sale happen, and we recommend Russell and his team to everyone.
Dave & Gina K.
We had the pleasure to work with Russell on the sale of our property in Ventura County. Simply put, he was amazing! Not only was he able to help us negotiate a deal we believe was above market value, but his communication skills and thought process were exceptional. He truly works hard and is available 24/7 for his clients. Thank you Russell!

We have worked with Tony and Russell on three separate occasions now and each time we are more and more grateful to have such an amazing team helping us navigate each real estate purchase and sale. The entire Mark and Grether Team are a joy to work with. They are trustworthy, organized, well prepared, and responsive which allows their clients to act with decisiveness and clarity. I appreciate that they are honest and won't just say something to close the deal. They truly fight for their client's best interest, that's hard to find with typical agents. With each transaction, they have provided incredible value and we look forward to working with them again in the future.

- Russell (who was our direct contact) was on top of everything, he educated and guided us through the whole process. He is so Malibu versed in so many ways I think he should run for Mayor. Thanks, Russell!

Russell is the guy! He was extremely helpful from our initial search all the way through to closing. He genuinely wants to find his clients the best home and the best deal. He and his team are responsive, hardworking and they know what they're doing! I'd recommend Russell to anyone looking to buy or sell a house in LA or Ventura County.

Tony and Russell seemed to like to work against the odds. Selling an unimproved lot, during a pandemic, while the economy is plunging, after a massive Malibu fire ripped through the area is truly an accomplishment. The price they secured from a cash buyer was very reasonable, and the closing prompt.

My wife and I worked with Russell and Tony's team for purchasing our first home in Los Angeles. They were terrific. Russell was an invaluable resource for answering our many questions throughout the process. There was constant contact - we could pick up the phone at any time to discuss with him. When we needed to get on site to see homes, handle inspections, or take measurements, the team was accommodating to meet with us on short notice. We were very happy with the service they provided and highly recommend Russell and Tony as agents for anyone looking in LA or Ventura County.
Kyle M.
Russell is top-notch. He's among the best real estate agents I've ever worked with -- knowledgeable, responsive, honest, and a great listener (as our needs/wants for a house kept getting honed!). I highly recommend him.

Russell and Tony are our "go-to" for real estate transactions. They really embody the fiduciary aspect of being loyal agents on your behalf, looking out for your best interests and explaining some of the finer nuances of what you may not know. They're genuine. They didn't treat us like "one" of their clients, but like their "only" client. As professionals, they spoke to us about how our property needed to present, how they'd present it, and always had their eyes opened for additional marketing opportunities. When offers came in, they'd explain the pros & cons of each particular offer, but they understood and respected that the decision was ultimately our's. The long & short of it is that they cared for our property and cared about us. I recommend you speak with them and go straight to having a great real estate experience.

- They did an amazing job for me and got things done in the best possible way. Very fun and nice guys to work with, together with their fantastic team I would for sure work with them again. Thank you and goodbye Malibu!

They found me an amazing rental for my family in a very tight market. Very easy to work with, and personally invested in my satisfaction! Highly recommended.

We can't recommend Russell, Tony, and the rest of their team enough! You can't beat their team approach and the combination of their expertise and personalities is unmatched. If you are looking for an agent that you can truly trust to act in your best interest, Russell & Tony will do just that. They pushed us when we needed to be pushed and always went to bat for us as our greatest advocate. There is no greater feeling than knowing you have people in your corner that you can trust to help you navigate the intricacies and delicacies of Malibu real estate. We knew that throughout the whole process we were not only working with agents with incredible technical knowledge, but also people of great character. You won't be disappointed with Russell, Tony, or anyone on their team!

I first met Russell in 2017 when my husband and I moved to Malibu. His knowledge of the area was awesome as was his patience. After renting for a year, I contacted Russell to buy a home. He took care of me every step of the way and continued to stay in touch over the past 5 years. When it came time to sell for us to move back east, of course I called Russell. Everyone on the team was involved in the process. Nikki, Justin, and Jessica were great to work with as they became familiar with our family and dogs as we showed the property. I am very happy with the outcome and recommend them highly. Their knowledge of the market and engagement was outstanding.
Judy M.
I highly recommend the team at The Mark and Grether Group in Malibu. Tony, Russell, Nicole, Justin and Nikki are a great team and provided outstanding service on our recent real estate transaction. They are friendly, knowledgeable, and very responsive. I look forward to working with them again in the future!
Kent G.
We first met Tony and Russell when we decided to move to Malibu for a year. We found an amazing rental through them. They have since helped us purchase a vacation home in Malibu. We couldn’t be happier with the process and his help!!!
Kim H.
This team is as good as they come. My husband and I were very picky about the neighborhood, architecture, layout, lot orientation, etc. We were also new to the area and didn't know much about neighborhoods. Russell tirelessly (and always enthusiastically) toured us through no less than 35 houses. However, where Russell REALLY shines is in his negotiation skills. He has a natural ability to get people to open up to him, so he was able to understand what was important to sellers and where they might be willing to give. He is also meticulous at all documentation, which is so important with such a large purchase. Russell is also extremely strategic about helping people buy houses - he was never pushy and wanted to make sure that we made an investment that would make us happy emotionally and financially.
Victoria G.
Russell, Tony, Nicole, and Justin make a great team. From start to finish, even though it was a long road, they were communicative, helpful and all round a delight to work with. They always ensured to make sure that our needs were being met, as well as trying to do the best to market our home to buyers. Thank you all for your amazing work!
Jenny K.
Tony and Russell assisted my family with the sale of our mother's house after her death. They gave us an honest opinion of value and provided us with a strategy to get the highest price possible with the minimal amount of investment for repairs/staging. The result was a sale in less than 45 days and a price my family was more than happy with. They have excellent local knowledge as well as a first rate support team.
Dan B.
We met Russell and Tony through one of their listings. We didn't have an agent, by design. They offered to show us a couple other properties in the area after gauging our goals. Russell showed us the property we wound up buying. Their expertise in the Point Dume region was insightful and relevant. Further, my wife and I observed how the partnership is complimentary. They both bring different skill sets and we received the full benefit of that brain trust. They're focused on making it happen while thoughtful in approach. Plus they're great guys. My wife and I are very happy and we highly recommend Russell and Tony.
Marc P.
We could not have been more pleased with Russell and Tony and the way they handled our off-market purchase of a highly sought-after Malibu townhome. Absolute professionalism in every sense of the word. They truly differentiate themselves from others in the field via a data-driven approach to analyzing price and relevant comps, attentiveness to even the most minor details, and punctuality throughout the process. My wife and I literally cannot speak highly enough of Russell and Tony and would recommend him to anyone that truly values this level of professionalism and service. We were genuinely ecstatic about how they handled a relatively complex transaction. Moreover, we’re confident that if we had chosen anyone else to represent us, we would not have enjoyed such a professional experience throughout the process.
