Donna was always available and there to answer any questions we had. She knows the area and values. Coming to the area from the northeast she made us feel right at home, even inviting us to dinner with other clients who have moved to Florida from out of State. We met her as a real-estate agent, but now know her as a friend. Highly recommended
Donna guided me through decision making when needed, was available via phone or text for questions, concerns, or updates always, has a competent group around her, from photographer to marketer to closing firm. From my experience, she is an excellent communicator, a seasoned professional, and a deep down kind and honorable person. I couldn’t have chosen a more competent realtor.
She excels in allof these catagories particulary in negotiation skills.
Donna has been a pleasure to work with. She really knew the area we were looking to buy in, and helped us find the house that best suited our needs. Donna's communication was excellent! She kept us up to date regularly. She sent us video walkthroughs of the homes when we couldn't attend, and helped us negotiate a purchase price that we were very pleased with! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell in Bradenton!
A++++ in all aspects!
Donna is a true professional in every sense of the word. Her vast knowledge or the Florida real estate market and homebuying process made our purchase easy. She is a hard worker and was on top of questions and all obstacles immediately. She works 24/7 and never kept us waiting on answers. Her friendly personality made it easier to deal with the title company, mortgage, Inspectors, sellers agent etc... We highly recommend using her services while buying a home.

Donna Arakel is extremely conscientious and knowledgeable in the real estate market She has made our sale a pleasant experience for us. She was always available when we had any questions and when we needed assistance especially with the paperwork I would highly recommend her to any family or friends interested in buying and or selling a home
Donna was fantastic throughout our process. With us being somewhat unsure of what we truly wanted, Donna was great at exploring all avenues of options. We will most certainly be continuing our purchases in the future with her. I highly recommend Donna, and appreciate her patience.
Before choosing a real estate agent, I conducted a lot of research to see who would be the best choice based on the investment they make into selling the property (time and effort, not necessarily financially) and how they promote their listings. Donna Arakel by far met all our expectations. She spent hours answering our questions, providing objective data regarding how many homes she sold , how long her listings typically stay on the market, and providing tons of info on comps in the area. Her media presence was strong, and I could tell she put a lot of work into her listings. When we saw our listing we were blown away !! Our house sold within 23 hours of listing it ! She’s a true professional. I think you'd be hard pressed to find a better Realtor.
She is extremely knowledgeable and very professional. She is conscientious and goes above and beyond for her client. She is always available when questions or problems arise. I don’t think we could have made it thru this transition moving from Naples Fl after 25yrs to Bradenton Fl without her assistance. I would highly recommend her to any of my family members and to my friends She is truly a very special individual
Donna performed above and beyond for me in every sense of the phrase. I was deployed overseas for the majority of the purchase process and Donna went way above what was required to make the process smooth and communicate with me on where we were and what was next in the process. I can’t thank her enough for all of the extra time and effort she put in to help me with this purchase
Donna provided great knowledge and professionalism throughout the process of purchasing my first home. She was always a phone call away and answered every question I had. Donna was diligent in helping me find the appropriate title company, and helped me get the best price for my house. She did not settle on anything unless I was happy. I highly recommend Donna!
