Agency Martha Turner Sotheby's International Realty - Houston Bay Area Brokerage
Description
Drawn by the allure of the sea, Marks Chowning and his family relocated to Galveston from Las Vegas in 2015. Today, they proudly call the stunning Texas Gulf Coast home.
Marks joined Martha Turner Sotheby’s International Realty in 2023, bringing over a decade of experience in residential real estate across both Texas and Nevada. As a long-time resident and seasoned professional in Galveston’s coastal market, Marks offers expertise in issues unique to the region—including flood and wind insurance, coastal building codes, and specialized construction requirements
His real estate practice is focused almost exclusively on Galveston Island, where he offers valuable insights into home renovation, commercial construction, and historic preservation—skills especially beneficial given the abundance of older homes and landmark properties in the area.
Clients consistently praise Marks for his optimistic approach, creative problem-solving, sharp negotiating skills, and unwavering commitment throughout each transaction. He prides himself on exceeding expectations and creating win-win outcomes that address every aspect of his clients’ real estate needs.
When he’s not immersed in real estate, Marks enjoys golfing on the island’s scenic courses, cultivating tropical plants, and savoring the freshest local seafood. You’re also likely to spot him exploring Galveston by golf cart, sharing sunsets with friends, or relaxing on his porch with a breeze off the bay.
Whether you're buying, selling, or investing, Marks is ready to help you navigate every step with insight, integrity, and a touch of island charm.
