At the end of any open house or home tour, I'd often be asked if I had any questions by the selling agent, and my response was always, ‘Only if Donna has questions.’ I had absolute trust in her, and you will, too. Don't call your friend who just got their real estate license. Don't call someone who you happened to work with a few years back. Call Donna. I can't imagine how you'll find someone better.

After having the privilege of working with Donna for 6 years while renting out my Boston condo, a relationship that was purely built on trust as I was living on the west coast, it was time to sell. There was no other person I even considered; it was Donna from the start without hesitation. She was always a wealth of information and support, and guided me through the process seamlessly from staging to the closing table.
- Kristin
All-around all-star — Donna was attentive, professional and competent — she exceeded my expectations and is a highly recommended standout in a sea of choice.

From day one I knew I had been linked with the right agent. I’m not an easy person to communicate with and I don’t know real estate, so it takes a lot for me to trust someone with such a large important transaction in my life. Donna was ALWAYS on the same page. She has an innate capacity for understanding her clients. She communicates openly and honestly. She is real. She is intuitive. She wants what’s best for YOU and will go the extra mile to ensure her client has the upper hand. Most importantly, this woman is brilliant with Boston real estate and you want her on your team.
- Sophie
Donna is the realtor you want. Efficient, knowledgeable, punctual, and prompt with amazing negotiation skills. I have never worked with someone as reliable and responsive. She is so organized and never forgets a single detail. Donna guided us through finding a dream home in this crazy market, successfully. Furthermore, Donna sold our apartment in record time in an area that had seen difficulty with home sales. We are so grateful for her expertise and help through this process. We highly recommend Donna if you want to kick a$$ in this crazy market.
- Elma
We have worked with Donna for over a decade, and she feels like a member of our family at this point! She represented us on our first purchase in Boston's South End in 2011, and just helped us complete our family dream home purchase in Wellesley, MA. Over the course of the decade, she has regularly kept in touch with us on property value, provided valuable research and insights, and has always been incredibly diligent and responsive. You can tell that Donna has a PR/communications background given her ability to manage multiple priorities, keep to timelines and always provide you with a direct, transparent recommendation. We would recommend Donna to anyone working in the Greater Boston area!
- Tamara
We worked with Donna earlier this year around the sale of our home. From our first conversation up until to our closing, she was professional, responsive, and always accessible. Her knowledge of the market is unparalleled. We’ve bought and sold several homes over the years and I can honestly say working with Donna was the most positive experience we’ve ever had.
- Linda
Donna listed and sold our home in just a few days earlier this year. She is extremely knowledgeable and meticulous. She is also a great communicator. Donna understands the market, she knows how to negotiate, and she is always available for questions from us, large or small. In addition, Donna comes with years of great contacts to help with the process (handymen, tradespeople, stagers, cleaners, photographers, etc.). This is the second Boston home we've sold with Donna, and of course she has represented us as buyers, too. Don't call anyone else. Donna is the best!
- A.G.
When it was time to buy a home, we initially worked with another agent. After several months and a relatively unimpressive experience, we switched gears and connected with Donna. My expectations are generally wildly high, but Donna just blew me away. Her communication is impeccable and her thoroughness and willingness to go above and beyond is unmatched. Donna is a professional in every way, and is the first person I’d call if I were to sell or buy again.
- K.M.
Donna was highly recommended after working with many of my close friends, both buying and selling, some multiple times each. Even still, she exceeded our expectations. She is professional, patient, honest, reassuring, transparent, and was intuitive to our needs (even unspoken needs) from the start. She also skillfully and successfully negotiated on our behalf. We are so grateful to Donna for finding us our unique home that checked off every box.
- Katrina
Donna has helped me through several transactions and is always on point and working incredibly hard for her clients. Her knowledge, persistence, and keen understanding of the market is unmatched. I have recommended Donna to several friends and colleagues, all of which having an outstanding experience. A+ realtor and person to work with!
- Marshall
Donna is the ultimate real estate professional, hands down. We reached out to her to help us sell our unique property in South Boston and she delivered above and beyond our expectations. Donna handled everything from start to finish and we had an offer on day 1! Also, as we were in the market to purchase a home far outside of her region of expertise, she found us a realtor who knew the highly competitive area and her recommendation was spot on. If we buy in the Boston region again, we will 100% be using Donna again!
- Dana
Donna was a dream to work with. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the market and made sure we felt supported throughout the process. When we ran into some issues with the seller's agent, she was relentless in getting us the updates and info we needed. Highly recommend!
- Rachel
Donna's the best at what she does -- end-to-end project management, insightful expertise, caring support, and fun to be around. I've worked with her twice now and referred her to countless friends and colleagues without hesitation.
- Kelly
As 1st time buyers we had no idea what we were doing, but Donna explained the process thoroughly and was patient with us. Donna understood the crazy market well and helped us craft a competitive offer that we felt comfortable with, which ultimately landed us our first home. We definitely wouldn't have had as smooth of an experience without her guidance!
- Mike
It was a long and arduous search process, but Donna pulled through and held my hand every step of the way! I was in the market for the longest time and was thinking of leaving, but Donna was vigilant setting up several showings every week and really made me feel at ease. The day I found my now-home, Donna called me up at work in the morning and told me a new place was on the market and we must take a look before it was snatched up. So she drove to my workplace, picked me up, and we went out to see it. I placed an offer that afternoon and got the place! If it wasn’t for her dedication to my needs, then I’d still be searching! I highly recommend Donna’s services for any new or experienced home buyer!
- Matt
Donna is as knowledgeable, skilled and savvy as she is personable and pleasant. Selling and buying are often exciting but almost always stressful. Donna knows exactly how to keep the focus and energy positive, reduce the stress and provide whatever she can to bring the client to the finish line. Having worked with Donna as both a buyer and a seller over many years, I'm obviously biased. That said, I know a great person/professional when I see one!
- Maryanne
As a first-time home buyer, having Donna as my agent was invaluable. It became clear to me after our first meeting that she was not just smart, but honest. She was immensely helpful – guiding me through the entire buying process, which turned out to be incredibly easy, thanks to her. She's a wonderful person, and I would highly recommend her.
- Kori
Donna is the best! We were so appreciative to work with her, for so many reasons. She is incredibly communicative, she helped accommodate our difficult schedules, she was super patient with our ongoing indecision, and she has a fantastic eye and was always pointing out things we missed. Above all else, we really trusted her to tell us the truth and to put our interests first. If we do end up moving again, she’ll be our first call.
- Jordan
Donna was very patient with me and stuck with me for 3+ years, as I am very picky and probably wasn’t ready to buy when I first met her. She did not push me just to make a sale. She is extremely knowledgeable of the areas where I was looking and met with me all the time to talk about what might have changed during the years I searched. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy their first home – or any home for that matter.
- Nico
My most recent purchase was the second time I worked with Donna. When I went to buy again, I immediately contacted her and didn't think twice about shopping for another realtor. Her attention to detail, thoughtfulness, and non-pushiness (a rare find in real estate!) are just a few of the reasons I am a client for life.
