Discovering Compass
A message from our founder
My earliest inspiration for Compass came from someone I greatly admire who is now an agent at Compass: my mother. Growing up, it inspired me to see how hard she worked and how much she cared about the people she served. Today, the thousands of incredible entrepreneurs who make up our coast-to-coast community of real estate agents continue to inspire me and guide our vision for an industry reimagined at Compass. We invite only the most talented, highest-integrity professionals in the country to join Compass and then we give them what my mother never had: the same incredibly high level of support, care, and expertise that they provide to sellers like you. Partnering with top technology, business, and marketing leaders, we’ve developed a fleet of these world-class entrepreneurs to ensure every step of your experience is seamless. As you’ll find in the pages that follow, we’ve made it our mission to invest in our agents so that they can invest in you, from granting buyers an exclusive first look at your home to empowering you with interest-free loans to make improvements to your property for a faster, more lucrative sale.
Like you, I understand the importance of choosing an advisor with the utmost integrity and skill. Buying or selling a home is often the most important financial decision a person will make in their lifetime; it can help make the future you imagine for yourself and your family possible. But it’s also about finding a property, a neighborhood, a community that makes you feel like you truly belong — which is why at Compass, we know that the key to selling your home is to help its next owner fall in love with it, the same way you did. The agents of Compass inspire me daily, but the community we’ve built together is wholly inspired by you. I want to thank you for providing this opportunity to the agent in front of you, and by extension, to all of us at Compass. Your trust is something we don’t take lightly and I am personally committed to providing every resource at our disposal to achieve your goals. Our mission is to help everyone find their place in the world and we’re honored to help you embark on your next chapter, wherever it may lead.
Sincerely,
Robert Reffkin Founder & CEO

As a 20 year resident of Philadelphia and University of The Arts Alumni, Marc has immersed himself in the arts and culture in Philadelphia and its many diverse and wonderful neighborhoods. While working as a music educator in the city network of highly acclaimed private schools, he began investing in real estate to help meet long term financial goals and support his songwriting career. After purchasing his first home in 2006 and becoming a resident in the burgeoning Fishtown neighborhood, Marc and his husband purchased two more investment properties in addition to buying a new primary residence, which they lovingly renovated and restored to its stunning original character. In 2016, Marc decided to take the leap of faith and begin his career as a Realtor®. Born in St. Louis to Philadelphians, Marc returned to Philadelphia in 1997. When not hawkishly keeping an eye on real estate trends, he hosts a writing group in his home, writes music for his band and film/television, and performs with his Americana and Bluegrass band. Otherwise, he can be found in a bowling league or playing ultimate frisbee in the areas beloved Philadelphia Area Disc Alliance aka PADA.

What Our Clients Are Saying
"Working with Marc Silver on the purchase of our house was a pleasure. Marc knows the city well, took a lot of care in advising us, and was really patient during what turned out to be a longer process than we expected. He is really knowledgeable and incredibly responsive, and we always felt he was an advocate for us. My husband and I are happy to give Marc our highest recommendation!" Catalina and James
"I highly recommend Marc. He is diligent, savvy, and personable. My wife and I spent months looking for a home, both by ourselves and with other realtors, and it was a painful experience. Once we started working with Marc, we quickly and easily found a good fit (and closed the deal). It helped a lot that Marc was very accessible, walking us as first-time homebuyers through all the twists and turns of the process. Overall, a great experience!"
"I was very impressed with Marc's knowledge of the market and responsiveness, despite him clearly being in high demand. I really leaned on his expertise, and he was invaluable in navigating a rather complicated sale with many unexpected twists and turns with the property and seller."
