Mark's Blog

Konrad and Lucinda Finck share their experience working with Mark Thudium multiple times over the past ten years to buy & sell real estate.

About ten years ago, we lived in Chicago, and as we approached retirement, we decided we did not want to retire there, mainly since both of our children lived near the Lancaster area. Our visits to Lancaster County during our daughter's wedding celebrations made us more enticed by the area. We attended Westminster Presbyterian Church several times and decided to ask the church community for a Realtor recommendation. Mark Thudium was at the top of the list. 

Working with a trustworthy Realtor was essential since we'd be navigating a new home purchase from Chicago. As we continued to visit our daughter and her family in the Baltimore area, we started to familiarize ourselves with Lancaster County. Mark and his assist...

Mike Steidler shares his experience working with Mark Thudium to buy a home in Manheim Township.

I met Mark Thudium through our church community and by reading many of Mark's positive client testimonials in LNP's Real Estate section. I was impressed by how he engaged with the church community outside of regular programs. His willingness to give time, dollars, and mentorship displayed his genuine and kind personality. It was clear he was willing to give of himself without anticipating a return, which resonated with me.

I called Mark in 2021 to discuss helping me purchase a new home. At that time, I knew the community where I wanted to live, but I couldn't actively look...

Charlie Bozym shares his experience working with Mark Thudium to sell his home in Leola of 51 years. 

In 1972 I moved to Leola with my wife, Mary Ann, and daughter Stephanie. We purchased a newly built Bi-level home. As years passed, Steph married and now resides in New Holland with her family. Mary Ann and I had hoped we would continue enjoying life in our Leola home. However, it was not to be, as we had to adjust our plans as Mary Ann was diagnosed with Parkinson's.

Rick and Anne Traylor share their story of working with Mark Thudium to sell their home of more than 31 years.

We've known Mark for many years. He was our Realtor in 1992 when we built our home in Leola, and we remained good friends over the years. Throughout the past five years, we started to think more strategically about general improvements that would impact the future sale of our home. Mark acted as an excellent advisor regarding what would be the most beneficial improvements.

We knew that we eventually wanted to sell and move to our lake home in Virginia. We appreciated that Mark could look at the big picture on property improvements and help us determine what was important and would bring value and aid in selling the home.

Ellen & Glenn share their story of working with Mark Thudium to sell their home of more than 62 years.

We lived in our home in East Lampeter Township for 62 years, and we loved our house. But we knew it was time to move into a home that would be more comfortable for us. It was a tough decision, as packing and moving all our belongings at our age was daunting.

We initially thought we would sell our household items and the property through an auction, which our family and friends encouraged us to explore. However, we spoke with
