About

Do The Right Thing, Always A Country Boy With a Knack for Relationship
Mark was born and bred in Bardstown KY, son of Lanny A, Baker, a hard-working and well-known-for-the best-reasons real estate agent, turned broker. Mark’s childhood was rooted in the daily works of real estate practiced with honesty, integrity, and a commitment to always do the right thing. Clients were community members who became lifelong friends, and Mark’s purpose in carrying on his Father’s brokerage is to continue the Legacy his father built.

 

Meshing Old and New
In today’s world, personal service is a vanishing concept. The charm of an area like Bardstown cannot be meaningfully navigated by an agent from a surrounding city, or even a local agent with a larger real estate brokerage that may dabble in real estate as an occasional hobby. Mark is the only agent that will answer his calls, show a property to his buyers, and advocate for his clients best interest, no matter the hour. He wants to be the only point of contact for his clients. He has one assistant, Katherine who has over 20 years of real estate service. Occasionally, one of Mark’s four children, three of which are teens, come along to business dealings or help out in the office to learn the ropes at a family business they plan to later join.

 

Bringing Growth
Mark has represented buyers and sellers in both residential and commercial property transactions. By actively marketing commercial lots that have been available for a substantial amount of time to businesses outside the area, with great success. Bardstown is growing, and Mark wants to bring the right kind of companies into the area to increase value for all resident families, current and potential.
