I'm a native Texan, born in Houston, graduating from Pearland HS. I worked in residential/commercial construction under my father, a local general contractor. My corporate business career (oil field, IT) ended after winning recognized clients and sales awards. I enjoy SCUBA diving, playing golf, cooking, and fitness training. As your agent, I will add value, pay attention to details, and dutifully serve you in any real estate transaction!

Marks Chowning joins Martha Turner Sotheby's International Realty this year pairing his extensive knowledge of the Galveston market with their world class real estate brokerage.


Drawn by the lure of the sea, Marks and his family relocated to Galveston in mid-2015 and now call the beautiful Texas gulf coast home. As a resident and professional in this coastal region, he is intimately familiar with the unique issues related to coastal living, specifically coastal insurance issues (flood, wind), differing building codes and construction requirements. Marks brings a wealth of experience in home renovation, commercial construction, and historic restoration, valuable knowledge given the amount of older homes and historic buildings on the island.


Clients praise Marks for his positive approach, decisive yet creative disposition, exceptional negotiating skills, and unwavering commitment throughout the entire transaction. He strives to deliver service that surpasses expectations, fostering "win-win" transactions, and addressing all of his clients' real estate requirements.


Marks started his career managing a variety of large public assembly, multi-use and commercial properties in markets across the United States. After 25 years of operating commercial properties, 2012 found him jumping into the world of residential real estate, launching his practice in Las Vegas, Nevada. As you can imagine, real estate, like everything else in Las Vegas, was dynamic and always moving, and he quickly became a top producer within his brokerage.


When Marks is not immersed in the world of real estate, he enjoys playing golf on the island's golf courses, nurturing vibrant tropical plants and relishing the freshest local seafood. Simple pleasures include exploring the island on his golf cart, sunset gatherings with friends and quiet time on his porch enjoying the breeze off the water.

I have lived in Galveston County my entire life. The Gulf Coast is my home and my passion. My experience covers many facets of real estate including: listing or buying of new/resale residential homes, waterfront specialist, residential leasing, and sales and leasing of commercial properties. I strive to be the best advocate for my clients, and approach each transaction with integrity, dedication, and a good sense of humor. I push myself to be a better REALTOR® by continuing my real estate education, and keeping up to date on all aspects of real estate and marketing. Social Media Pro, Multi Cultural Real Estate Professional and Certified Military Residential Specialist are some of my designations that I have acquired. I am an easy person to talk with and pride myself on my communication with my clients. I am professional, responsible, and very loyal to my clients. My extracurricular activities include spending time with my family, swimming, and relaxing with friends. I am a TOP PRODUCER! If you need a Realtor® or just have real estate questions, please give me a call and I will be happy to help you!
