I can’t thank Mark Zomer at Zomer company enough for his help in selling a parcel of my wife’s family’s farmland. Mark was sensitive to my concerns as it had to be split three ways with me and the two sisters. He met with all of us to come to an agreement. Although it was not easy, his patience, understanding, compassion, and expertise gave us the confidence that it would be done fairly, and it was. I had never been to an auction and did not know the work involved in putting it all together. He always made himself available to give me advice and encouragement when I called. Mark was always open and honest in explaining the next steps. On the day of the auction, it was a cold day and Mark came and sat with me in the car before it started. His words brought peace to stressful me. Mark’s caring ways and kindness were greatly appreciated.

After our dear mother passed away we knew eventually our brother’s lease on our farm would end. With many siblings, we knew they wouldn’t all want to keep our farm. That day came after being in our family for many years, the farm was going up for sale. The trustees were advised by our lawyer that Zomer Company were the BEST and an interview with Mark was set up. He explained things so very clearly. The trustees hired him. The day arrived,( with bitter-sweet feelings) us girls had never been to a land auction before. Mark greeted us and introduced us to his staff. As the bidding took place, we were totally amazed by Mark’s determination to get the best price. A bitter-sweet day was so much easier because of Mark and his staff’s kindness and caring for us. Thank you  Zomer Company and staff…Jim Kruse—Ginger ( Hofstra) Van Roekel-Audrey (Hofstra) Zoet

Our mother passed away and after months of anguish, the decision was made to sell the family farm. This farm was in our family for at least a hundred years and it was so hard to let it go. We visited with two other auctioneers and after interviewing Mark Zomer, we knew he was the right person for us. He understood what we were going through and how difficult it was for us. He handled all our questions and concerns with compassion and listened carefully to our wants and needs. Mark took over the reins and made suggestions to have several things done that we would have never thought of, did all the advertising, drone flyovers of the land, made sale booklets, took the abstracts to Orange City and so many other things.
He was available at all times to talk with us or take potential buyers out to the farm. He gave up so much of his own family time to make sure that the sale would go smoothly and for that, we can’t thanks him enough. Mark is very knowledgeable of the area, so all of this was handled teleconferences. My sister and I decided to personally meet and visit with Mark a few weeks before the sale and he spent an entire afternoon with us. We went through all the things he had done and then he took us on a tour of the farm and the surrounding area that brought back many great memories. The sale went extremely well and we had a wonderful turnout. If you ever need an auctioneer that goes above and beyond for their clients, then Mark Zomer and his staff are the ones for you. Mark is the best in our books and we would never hesitate to hire him again if needed. Thanks, Mark!

Auctions are my hobby. Love to go to ’em and have had several of my own. Mark’s job selling my parent’s home and acreage was terrific. Why? He knows how to pace an auction, how to give bidders time to think. Not to mention he is one of the most optimistic friendly people I’ve encountered. Do not fret about this auctioneer decision-just call Zomer.

Making the decision to sell two Iowa farm parcels took many months. One parcel was purchased in 1901 by our great grandfather and the other parcel was purchased during the depression by our grandfather. With no farmers in the family, it made sense to sell but feelings of guilt held us back.  A relative recommended we discuss an auction with Mark Zomer.  Mark understood our attachment to the farm and the guilt we felt for even thinking of selling.  He laid out the options with no sales pressure and we all felt he was the one to use for our auction.  The whole process of getting ready for the auction was organized and coordinated seamlessly.  We couldn’t be happier with how Zomer Company Realty & Auctions executed the auction on our family farm.  We strongly recommend using Mark Zomer at Zomer Company!

I have had multiple opportunities to do business with Mark and the first thing that comes to mind for me is his integrity. Mark has earned my trust and his word can be depended on. I appreciate his hard work but, I also want to mention that he gives back to the community. Mark is an asset to the Real Estate business and also to the area.
