Tim Brown, former Vice President, University Medical Center and current CEO,
The Donor Network of Arizona
"Working with Mark was a high point when I was at UMC and I continue to use his counsel today. He looked after UMC’s real estate and educated me in the process. He is a giving person and someone who I could always count on to simply makes things happen."
Patricia Clinch, former Executive Director, Handi-Dogs, Inc.
"Mark was instrumental in helping us realize the dream of a new building of our own. He donated time, energy and resources to help us purchase a vacant lot. He put us in touch with people we needed to talk to when questions or concerns came up. He helped in our search for a general contractor and acted as an informal advisor to me and our Board on matters related to the building project. Mark also advised us on fund-raising strategies and board development issues."
Bill Dawson – Executive Director, Boys and Girls Clubs of Tucson
"When the Clubs need real estate advice concerning new locations for a clubhouse or to review a property that is donated we turn to Mark. His knowledge and experience have been invaluable and he does it all pro-bono. Additionally, Mark is the Club’s largest fund-raiser most years and one of our most active and influential board members too serving for over 15 years."
John Duval – former COO, University Medical Center and current CEO,

"As a professional, Mark has developed Mark Irvin Commercial Real Estate Services into among the most respected, commercial real estate firms doing business in the region. A tireless advocate for his clients, Mark was a most effective representative for me in both sales and purchase transactions. Always working to the highest ethical standard, I was always confident that the best interests of UMC were at the forefront of his thinking. The greatest hallmark of a successful business relationship is trust, and Mark earned my trust and that of many others."

William Keiper, former Chairman and CEO, Artisoft
"I had the opportunity to work with Mark for almost five years in my capacity as CEO with Artisoft. This included six or seven transactions – including several multi-million dollar transactions - and in each case, he provided the kind of attention to detail that one could only hope for in connection with a service provider. He provided us with superior service and I was one of my greatest pleasures to work with him during and after this time."
Sue Krahe-Eggleston, Executive Director, Our Family
"Mark’s involvement in Our Family started with Our Town (our former name) in the late 1990’s and continues on today. Mark assisted us in procuring an office building that not only met our program needs but also enable the Agency to establish a permanent home. Since that time he has made himself available to our Board for consultation, became a regular financial supporter, and someone we trust for advise in regards to any real estate issue that rises."
Margaret Krigbaum – President, The Prime Foundation
"Mark and his company represent the highest levels of integrity, professionalism, and results within the real estate industry. Our experience with him in selling the Prime School’s building on Broadway was top-notch and Mark is the only agent I would ever hire when selling or buying a commercial property."
Pamela Price, Executive Director, Every Voice in Action Foundation
"As a client of Mark’s, we have been fortunate to have his support during three different office relocations over the past ten years. Each time he worked diligently to locate and secure space that truly met our needs.During the last relocation, Mark identified a property for us that he thought would be ideal. Although it was not even on the market, through his extensive contacts he was able to work both the owner and the tenants to negotiate the purchase of the building for us and the relocation of the tenants. He saw possibilities and was able to create a truly win-win deal!"
Richard White – Executive Director, American Red Cross, Southern Arizona Chapter
"Mark continues to be a wonderful friend to the Chapter. He has guided and assisted us in making wise real estate decisions and generously donates all of his commissions back to us despite the fact that he no longer sits on our board. He is a hard working, caring real estate leader who constantly looks for opportunities to help people while always leading by example."
Norm Botsford, President and CEO, University Physicians Healthcare
"A key concept in managing our corporation's facility needs is the notion of "best and highest use". We use this idea in leasing, purchasing, deploying and in selling our real estate assets. Working with Mark Irvin for over 15 years has brought us the best and highest use of his expertise, energy and good counsel."
