About Us
History
Founded in 1978 as Metro Mark Realtors by Dick Van Cleef, Margaret Ann Cheek, and Kent Hoffman, Metro Mark is the oldest locally and independently owned brokerage in the Oklahoma City Metro Area. In 2001 with Dick Van Cleef as the sole owner, he retired after 31 years in the industry. He sold the brokerage at that time to Patti and Dick Marshall and Beverly and Wayne Hamilton. During this transition, the brokerage continued to grow and establish itself as a fixture in not only the industry but also within the City of Nichols Hills. In 2015, Dick and Patti Marshall excitedly purchased the company and enjoyed several years of both owning and now managing the brokerage.
Most recently, in October of 2020 it was announced internally that Metro Mark Realtors was again gaining new ownership, this time with Amanda Kirkpatrick-Lawler and Cole Strickland taking the reins, and Amanda stepping into the role of Managing Broker. Patti and Dick Marshall have remained as active and invaluable members of the Metro Mark family as Agent and Broker Associate. During a recent interview, both Patti and Dick expressed how proud of Amanda and Cole they are and how smoothly they feel the overall transition was executed.
