The Longeville Heritage
Blason de la famille de Longeville
Coat of Arms · France
European refinement in service of the Californian lifestyle. An old-world sense of discretion, precision and personal service — grounded by more than thirty-five years in Southern California.
A note on French heraldry
In the French tradition, a family blason — a coat of arms — is the visual signature of a noble lineage, granted to a house centuries ago and carried through the generations that follow. It stands for lineage, honor, and continuity. The Longeville crest is Marc’s inheritance from a family history rooted deep in European soil, and a quiet reminder of the standards he brings to every client relationship.
Marc takes a concierge approach to his clients, providing them with a full suite of high-level services that goes far beyond the norm. That “clients first” philosophy — along with his understanding that the real estate business is all about people — leads him to treat each new client as a lifelong relationship. Meet Marc for coffee, and you’ll quickly see why his clients become friends.
A native of France who attended the prestigious business-focused boarding school École des Roches in Normandy, Marc studied business at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, and then moved to Los Angeles, where he established himself as a successful fashion entrepreneur; he has lived in Southern California more than thirty-five years. Today, with an impressive book of clients in the fashion and entertainment industries, Marc is known as one of the most exciting agents in the Vista Sotheby’s office. He specializes in General Buyer and Seller Representation, Luxury Homes, Development and Income Property.
Outside of real estate, Marc is a passionate scuba diver who loves to go night-diving off Neptune’s Nest by the Ventura County line, or Leo Carrillo State Beach. He also enjoys deep-sea fishing and lobster-hunting off the Channel Islands (he may bring a few tails at close of escrow!). On land, he’s a dedicated cook known for his rotisserie chicken, ratatouille and gratin dauphinois; he can be found stalking the best produce on Wednesdays and Saturdays at the Santa Monica Farmers Market and Sundays at Mar Vista Market. “Good food is nothing without great friends and family to share it with,” he says.

What’s Most Rewarding About Your Work?
“In a business that deals with emotion and unforeseen problems, I love it best when everyone leaves with a smile. That’s the best thank you one can get. And of course a nice referral or two doesn’t hurt.”
In What Way Do You Provide Top-Notch Service?
“I am passionate about providing the best service in every aspect of business. I am a great listener and love solving problems. I aim to make the experience stress-free. It’s also about keeping in touch well after the deal is done, such as helping clients source contractors. A client is for life.”
Do You Have A Motto?
“Being of service sums it up. I am in a business about people. It is about seller and buyer. When a home is changing hands, it is a privilege to be one of the facilitators. If you are interested in buying or selling a home, give me the opportunity to show you how a true professional will work for you.”
