Ive only bought the house in whiterun after doing the main storyline quests and was awarded a house and Lydia. My question is do i receive other housecarls in different towns as well?

I think so, i got one in Proudspire manor

In Solitude they gave me a housecarlton.


It's not unusual.

im currently working on getting my house in markath, is that the name of the house your referring to?

No i was talking about the one in Solitude.
