Who Is Mark — And Why It Matters to You
If you are searching for a real estate agent in the Upper Cumberland region of Tennessee — someone who knows every county, every neighborhood, and every back road — Mark Ogletree, known throughout the area as Twig, is that person.

Born and raised in Tennessee, Mark has lived in 17 different neighborhoods across 4 cities, attended 7 schools, built a business spanning all 16 Upper Cumberland counties, and pastors a church actively serving 5 of those counties. That depth of local knowledge is not something you can download — it is lived experience, and it directly serves his clients.

Mark specializes in residential listings, buyer representation, and real estate auctions across the Upper Cumberland, including Overton, Putnam, Clay, Pickett, Jackson, White, Cumberland, Fentress, and surrounding counties.

Real Estate Background
Mark's path into real estate began in 2017 when he partnered on his first fix-and-flip project. That single experience sparked a passion that led to multiple additional properties and
ultimately a formal commitment to the industry. To deepen that foundation, he enrolled in a one-year real estate investing school with mentorship from a seasoned investor based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. That training sharpened his understanding of property valuation, market positioning, and the process of making real estate more attractive, more valuable, and more accessible to buyers and sellers alike.

Today, Mark brings that investor mindset to every transaction — whether representing a seller who wants maximum return, a buyer navigating their first or fifteenth purchase, or a client looking to move property through the auction process.

EXIT Cross Roads Realty & EXIT Auctions
Mark is proud to be part of EXIT Realty, led by Principal Brokers Dino and Catherine Cates. The brokerage has provided consistent, professional real estate services since 2003 and
consistently ranks in the top 5 in the Upper Cumberland region for annual sales volume. The culture of integrity, service, and results that defines EXIT Cross Roads is the same culture Mark brings to every client relationship.

Serving the Upper Cumberland: Listings, Buyers & Auctions
Whether you are listing a property and want it priced right and marketed with purpose, buying a home or land in the Upper Cumberland and need a guide who knows the terrain, or exploring the auction process as a buying or selling strategy — Mark is equipped to serve you at every stage. His deep community roots mean he often knows about properties and opportunities before they hit the market. His investor background means he understands value, not just price. And his character means he will represent you the same way he would represent his own family.

Community Involvement
Mark is more than a realtor and auctioneer — he is woven into the fabric of the Upper Cumberland community. He serves as Pastor of I AM Worship Church, serves as an advisor to the boards of Hope Center Ministries, House of David Ministries, and Upper Cumberland Walk to Grace. Mark also serves as a coach for Livingston Academy Wildcat Football and is a character coach for Fellowship of Christian Athletes. This level of community engagement is not a distraction from his real estate work — it reflects who he is and how he operates: with deep commitment, personal accountability, and genuine care for the people he serves.

Life Outside of Real Estate
When Mark is not helping clients navigate the Upper Cumberland market, you will likely find him cheering on — or coaching — his children at their games and events alongside his wife Ashley. Family drives everything he does, professionally and personally.
