50 Years of Combined International Real Estate Experience

Ezra Clark

Ezra is part of The Clark Group of Sotheby’s International Realty in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. A longtime resident, multi-property owner, and real estate investor in Los Angeles, Ezra is married and currently lives in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico where he owns a home and practices real estate. Ezra holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Economics and Business, and a Spanish minor, from the Virginia Military Institute. Ezra’s passion for real estate began as a teenager while assisting his brother-in-law in building, constructing, and finishing high-end homes in San Francisco. However, it was his ten years spent in New York working as the maitre’d at top restaurants, at the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX), and at Ralph Lauren that provided him with the poised finesse to assist a high-caliber clientele. After spending two years providing missionary work in Mexico City and Querétaro, Ezra became fluent in Spanish both oral and written. Among his travels to Europe, Asia, Central and South America, it was the people and culture of Mexico that increasingly kept him returning, and he is happy to call San Miguel de Allende his home. Ezra’s hobbies include the creative and culinary arts, fine dining, wine, horseback riding, and SCUBA diving.
