He has lived in Bellbowrie for more than a decade, has worked in the local real estate market for more than six years, and the fully qualified chef owned and operated the Jaffa Box Cafรฉ in Bellbowrie for three and a half years.

Markโ€™s real estate experience covers sales, business development, property management and property development. He has collected numerous awards through his career.

โ€œJoining the Bardon-based office means I can commit more to my own family and helping the local community.

โ€œThe support and reputation that stands behind the RE/MAX name is immense and the RE/MAX culture is a perfect fit with its family focus, yet promoting the individual and encouraging entrepreneurship.

โ€œRE/MAX Profile is one of RE/MAX Australiaโ€™s top offices and Christina Penrose holds the networkโ€™s highest accolade, the Eagle Award, so again a perfect fit for location and performance,โ€ said Mark.

The Shorrock name is well-known and respected in the real estate industry with Markโ€™s parents having owned and operated real estate franchises on the Gold Coast over a 37-year period until their semi-retirement two years ago.

โ€œTheir office in Palm Beach had a special place in LJ Hookerโ€™s history,โ€ explained Mark,โ€ as it was that networkโ€™s first Queensland office and the first interstate office for LJ Hooker Limited, opening in 1957 two years before the Gold Coast was proclaimed a city.โ€™

โ€œMy parents, Neil and Robyn Shorrock, bought the real estate business from Ron Theobold for $5000 in 1981.โ€

โ€œIโ€™ve literally grown up immersed in the real estate industry and I love itโ€ฆ from working with my real estate clients, to the challenges of marketing and negotiation, to achieving the brilliant outcomes, and to forging long-term relationships both within the industry and with my clients.

โ€œI genuinely have a passion for helping people buy and sell property.

โ€œIโ€™ve also done my fair share of public speaking and plan to offer my services to the local community to help MC fundraising events and conduct charity auctions.

โ€œI am the agent who knows the local market inside-out; is trustworthy, responsive and tirelessly dedicated; and, with my family, is committed to the community. My mother-in-law has locally operated her own business, Shoe Fashion, for 20 years. Like the saying goes: If the shoe fitsโ€ฆโ€
