Donna Garrett's Reviews & Ratings

Tell us about your experience with
Donna Garrett

    • Although I have many friends and family in real estate, I was referred to Donna because of her area expertise, and am glad I used her services.This was my first home purchase experience. Although I spent a lot of time myself doing my homework and researching, Donna was very helpful and knowledgable. She was able to give me tips and useful details that I would have never thought about or have had the time to read about during the busy experience.I was also able to get a great looking home, under asking price, and competing against the aggressive market and investors. I believe this was in part because of the people she knew as well as the trust they had in her. It always helps to work with someone who knows the game, the area, the competition and the players. Donna was that person for me. Lastly, she was patient with me through my roller coaster of emotions, choices and questions (lots and lots of questions). So thank you Donna for the smooth experience and helping me get my great home.

    • Donna was able to help me find exactly what I was looking for. Despite me putting house hunting on hold during the process, I still felt important to Donna, she would check in with me, send me new areas to look at and try to open up opportunities for me. Donna really listened to my concerns and made sure she wasn't wasting time in the wrong area or price range, working with her was a great experience.

      - Megan
    • Donna has represented us as both a buyer and seller of our personal residences and has been a great partner in finding me outstanding investment properties. Her knowledge and expertise of the market is second to none.

      - Steve Marquez
    • Donna is friendly and knowledgeable. We used her both to buy and to sell a home. I have recommended Donna to my friends and colleagues who are house hunting. You will like Donna and you can feel confident in her expertise.

      - John Baxter
    • Donna was such a great help to me when I was selling my home and looking for a new one. She helped me find a nice home and I never felt intimidated or uncomfortable around her. We had a previous agent who did not really care to help us and seemed to only be in it for the sell but Donna made me feel like I mattered. She put my best interest first. She was very patient with me and helped negotiate a contract to help me stay in my previous home until I found a new one which was such a relief. She's a great agent and I highly recommend her.

      - Vilia Rivera
    • Donna was incredible from start to finish doing all she could to make it an easy process. She and her team, Celine and Wendy, were there every step of the way. Answered all questions, gave great advice and really made it a great experience. She truly became part of our family! Thank you sooooo much, Donna is the best!

      - Jim Busek
    • I would recommend Donna and her team to anyone. She was professional, prompt in her communication, and made the experience selling our home a pleasure and was equally diligent with my home purchase. The team staged our home so beautifully and the team went out of their way on multiple occasions to ensure all details around the preparation and sale of our home were addressed. I have bought and sold homes multiple times, but I have NEVER experienced this level of customer service. If I could give her more stars I would!

      - Cathy Spargo
    • Donna and her team are amazing to work with. Out of the many homes we have sold, they are truly the most professional realtors we have ever had. Donna is very organized, efficient, honest, knowledgeable, friendly, and caring. She handles all the details so timely, we never had to worry about anything through the whole process. We had four offers on our home within the first few days, because of all the time and effort they did to stage and professionally advertise our home. If buying or selling a home, we highly recommend Donna and her team.

      - Diane
    • My wife and I found that Donna went over and above what we could expect from an agent. We were in the process of selling a home also and found the information Donna and her group provided for the purchase of the our home extensive and helpful as compared to the agents who helped us sell our home.

      - John Carter
    • Donna and the Porchlight team were amazing during our tumultuous selling/buying process. Donna was an expert in creatively negotiating and working out the important details. I would give them my highest recommendation!

      - Susie Alexander
    • We had the pleasure of working with Donna Garrett on a recent purchase. Donna and her team members were professional, organized and knowledgable. Both Donna and Wendy were EXTREMELY accessible during the entire process making vital communication swift and effective!

      - Kellie Chiesa
    • I have hiredDonna before......great experience! Appreciate her knowledge and honest/direct approach to entire deal(s). Past sale was for elderly parent...Donna took extra time to slowly explain process to parent who had no current real estate knowledge as last transaction was 50 yrs prior! Current transaction was a bit rocky at times, Donna helped to smooth things out immensely. Overall, her Team was quite friendly and helpful.

      - Tim Dorg
    • Donna sold and found me a new home all within a month. She was with me every step of the process and always available to discuss any concern no matter the size.

      - Laura Sherwin
    • Donna and her associate Wendy were very pro-active in their search for my new home. I was new to the area of my search and they took me to see about 50 homes in the vicinity over the course of a month until we found the perfect home. Donna communicated with me constantly. They treated me like I was their most important client during the whole process. This was the best home-buying experience of my life.

      - Linda Abell
    • Donna and her team have been helping me buy and sell property for over 15 years now. She's my RE Pro!! I can always count on Donna to provide me the most up to date information I am looking for. She's professional, available, experienced, and best of all....honest! Let Donna be your RE Pro! She won't disappoint!

      - Debra Nelson
    • Donna and her team were recommended to us and after interviewing 3 different agents selected Donna and her team. We sold my dad's house after my mom passed and Donna and her team were respectful and gentle with my dad. We especially appreciated the direct recommendations and discussions with Donna and her team. They did what they said and said what they did, no non-sense or waste of time. When we are ready to buy or sell again we will call Donna first. We have recommended Donna to 2 friends and 2 family members already.

      - Norm Carhill
    • Donna was a rockstar! She helped us smoothly navigate the process of seeking our home. She was diligent in reviewing requests for repairs and following up with escrow. She also helped stage our home and made it look lovely. We cannot thank her enough for her hard work!

    • Donna and Wendy from Porchlight made selling my mother's house so effortless. They walked me through all the paperwork and were there to answer any and all questions I might have. They also responded to any calls. emails and texts immediately. I would highly recommend them to any friends who would need a very professional, caring and knowledgeable realtor team to sell or help buy a home. Five stars for everything!
