Donalyn and Hank have been a blessing to my family. We found them based on referral and they have been nothing short of amazing and exceeded all of our expectations! We were not familiar with the area coming from out of state and needed any and all information we could get. They were with us every step of the way to support us, encourage us and provide the knowledge we needed to help in our decision making. She is so quick to respond and always willing to help no matter the time. Both of them are willing to drop what they are doing to help a client at any time. From late night text messages or calls, to last minute showings, she always made us feel like her top priority. When we made trips into town to visit and explore, it was often on very short notice and they always cleared lots of time in their busy schedules to accommodate us. They dedicated hours, days and weeks to explore anything and everything we asked for and more. Hank provides so much knowledge and insight on the geography, structure and building of the home and so much more that his knowledge and insight balances with Donalyn like I’ve never seen before. They each provide unique perspectives that mesh together so well and made us feel much more confident in our decision making every step of the way. We had very strict criteria to meet and they were the most patient people I’ve ever met and so supportive of all of our thoughts and opinions. They respected our perspectives and did not try to force their personal thoughts onto us. The amount of time they spent with us was above and beyond what we could have ever imagined. Our little kids were along with us often and they were incredibly gracious with them too. Now they feel more like friends and family than “agents” and the relationship we have built will continue even though our home search is over. They are genuinely great people and made us feel valued. I hope anybody looking to buy or sell a home uses Donalyn and Hank!

We recently relocated to Boise and Donalyn made the real estate part of the process as easy as it could be. She knows Boise very well, the ins-and-outs of the various towns and neighborhoods, and was supportive in every way. I would not hesitate to recommend Donalyn to close friends and relatives. We were lucky a friend recommended her and I cannot recommend her strongly enough.

Let me begin with the conclusion: Donalyn and Hank Allen are rare gems in real estate. If someone I cared about was buying a home, I would insist—persistently—that they work with the Allens. After 25 years in our previous home, we were ready to find what we hoped would be our final nesting place—a low-maintenance home in a 55+ community. We thought we knew exactly what we wanted after years of research, but working with the Allens taught us that sometimes the right home isn’t the one you expected. Donalyn is a force of nature. She listens intently—several layers deep—and once she understands your goals, she pursues them relentlessly. We met her at an open house and were impressed. But we were blown away the next day when she located an unlisted home with the exact floor plan we’d been seeking. While it ultimately wasn’t the one, her speed, resourcefulness, and connections amazed us. From then on, we called her “Go Get’r.” Throughout the process, Donalyn was nearly instantly available for every question, every showing, every detail. We never waited long for a response, and her follow-through was flawless. She encouraged us to stay open to possibilities—and we’re so glad she did. Hank brings a calm, thoughtful approach grounded in deep experience with construction and project management. He quietly observed, listened, and then suggested we revisit a development we had written off. We trusted him enough to take another look, and it turned out to be exactly what we needed. He saw what we couldn’t yet see. Once we found the right home, Donalyn negotiated a great price and coordinated an aggressive, perfectly timed closing that aligned with our home sale. Every detail—inspections, contracts, walkthroughs—was handled smoothly and ethically. If you’re buying a home, you want Sea to Farm Real Estate by your side. Donalyn and Hank are simply the best. We are so thankful they came into our lives.

Let me start with the bottom line: Donalyn and Hank Allen are unicorns. If a close friend or loved one needed a realtor, I would badger them until they chose the Allens. We needed to sell our beloved home of 25 years—a property with large trees, lush gardens, and lots of maintenance—before we could buy our next home. The Allens guided us every step of the way. Over several months, they gave us clear, practical instructions for preparing the home. It was obvious they knew far more than we did (as it should be with any professional), and their experience gave us peace of mind. Donalyn’s market analysis was spot-on—equal parts data and instinct. She helped us choose a smart, competitive price. The photography was beautiful, and the MLS listing was so well done we found ourselves saying, “Dang… that looks like a home I’d want to buy!” Despite a cooling market and increased competition in our neighborhood, we had 9 showings in 7 days and received a full-price offer. That’s no accident—it's the result of experience, strategic thinking, and impeccable follow-through. Donalyn also set and managed an aggressive closing timeline, aligning our sale and purchase seamlessly. As movers finished loading our truck, the buyer’s moving pod pulled into the driveway. Talk about timing. From inspection to appraisal to contract changes, they protected our interests and our earnest money with calm, confident professionalism. They were always available, incredibly responsive, and deeply ethical in every interaction. Donalyn and Hank Allen are worth more than their commission. If you’re selling your home, do yourself a favor and call Sea to Farm Real Estate. We’re profoundly grateful we did.

Working with Donalyn at Sea to Farm Real Estate was truly a fantastic experience from start to finish. Selling a home can be stressful, but Donalyn made the entire process feel incredibly smooth and manageable. Her knowledge and professionalism were evident at every stage — from advice on preparing the home for listing, recommendations through inspections and appraisals, and all the way to closing. She anticipated every step, answered every question with confidence, and was always available to clarify and ease the process. She clearly understands the market and also genuinely cares about her clients’ experience. Donalyn and Hank were an amazing team - responsive, organized, and a pleasure to work with. We’re so grateful for their support and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell or buy a home.

I could not have completed this transaction without Donalyn! I had to move out of state, suddenly and unexpectedly and Donalyn supported me through every step. She exceeded expectations. She was extremely communicative and walked me through each part of the process with care and diligence. I highly recommend Donalyn to help with a buy or sale of real estate.

We could not have asked for a better realtor than Donalyn! From the very first meeting, she impressed us with her professionalism, deep market knowledge, and genuine care for our family’s needs. She took the time to truly listen to what we were looking for, guided us with honest advice, and made sure we felt informed and confident every step of the way. Her attention to detail and tireless work ethic meant nothing was overlooked. Donalyn’s communication was always prompt, clear, and reassuring, and her positive attitude made what could have been a stressful process feel exciting and fun. She is more than just a realtor, she’s a trusted advocate and a true partner. We are so grateful for all she did to help us find the perfect home, and we will be recommending her to everyone we know! If you want someone who goes above and beyond in every way, Donalyn is the one.

Donalyn was always quick to answer any messages, questions and or concerns we had regardless of the time and day. If she didn't know the answer to something she would quickly get one. She was very patient with us during our specific search. She never pushed anything on us nor made us feel that we were wasting her time, she was always friendly and professional. Her and her husband were present during closing and gifted us a beautiful basket. Thank you!

I would recommend to anyone looking for an agent. I have bought and sold many houses Donalyn was the best agent I have ever used.

Donalyn and Hank Allen are top notch in every way! Their knowledge of real estate is exceptional. They regularly communicate, and are always willing to answer questions right away. Donalyn and Hank are professional, yet very personable. They go above and beyond to assist in finding the perfect “Home Sweet Home.” In addition to being knowledgeable, professional, thoughtful, and kind, Donalyn and Hank are great trust worthy people, and comfortable and fun to work with. We have purchased two homes through Sea to Farm and couldn’t be happier with the extraordinary service we have received.

Donalyn and her husband Hank have been a blessing to my family as well as my sister. We would not be here in Idaho without her expertise and care. They give 100 percent to everyone. We think of them as friends now, not “agents”.

Thank you Donalyn for your great work. You saved the day by selling the property just in time! You handled a complex situation with a great "can do" attitude and in constant problem-solving mode. Amazing experience - would 100% recommend
