Founder
Mark Taylor is the co-founder and principal of Mason | Taylor Associates, a boutique luxury real estate team serving Newport Beach, Costa Mesa, and the surrounding coastal Orange County communities. Alongside co-founder Dylan Mason, Mark has helped build one of the most trusted names in Orange County real estate, a team known not just for results, but for the relationships behind them. With over a decade of experience in the Newport Beach and Costa Mesa markets, Mark brings a rare combination of strategic thinking, genuine care, and deep local knowledge to every transaction. His goal-oriented mindset and commitment to his clients' success have made him a trusted advisor, and his dedication to his team's professional growth has made him a natural mentor.
Mark's roots are in Northern California, but his heart has long belonged to the coast. After living in the White Mountains of Arizona, he found his way to the Newport Beach and Costa Mesa community and never looked back. Today, he's a proud husband, father, and neighbor who is fully invested in the place he calls home, Newport Beach.
Outside of real estate, Mark can be found on the trails, exploring the great outdoors, fishing, or hunting down a great cup of coffee. He loves to travel, gather good people around a great meal, and spend unhurried time with family and friends. He's deeply woven into the fabric of his community, coaching and cheering on his kids in youth sports, volunteering at Mariners Elementary School, planning and implementing in the beloved annual Mariners 4th of July Bike Parade, and supporting Newport Mesa Sports Equipment Connection, an organization that ensures every kid has the gear they need to play.
Helping our clients achieve their specific goals, no matter what they may be, is the foundation of our business. We focus on successfully guiding our clients through the home buying or selling process while protecting their interests at all times.
