Working with Donna was an absolutely wonderful experience. She was incredibly patient with us as we took our time and played the long game before making an offer, never rushing us and always making sure we felt confident in our decisions. Donna truly went above and beyond—conducting thorough research, making multiple trips to the property and even to the town office to gather additional information, and ensuring we had a complete picture every step of the way. She also took the time to educate us about the process and what to look out for in the house, which made us feel informed and empowered as buyers. What meant the most was how much she advocated for us. Donna really went to bat for us and was deeply protective of our interests throughout. On top of all that, she is warm, friendly, and genuinely caring—a total delight to work with. We feel so lucky to have had Donna by our side and can’t recommend her highly enough.

Working with Donna was an incredible experience from start to finish.

What truly set her apart was not just her professionalism, but her kindness and genuine care. She took the time to understand my needs, kept me informed every step of the way, and made what could have been a stressful experience feel manageable and even exciting. I’m so grateful for her support and dedication—I honestly feel like she’s become part of my family. I couldn’t recommend her more highly to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

Working with our Real Estate Agent, Donna Nikic, was an absolute pleasure and the best decision we could have made when selling our home. As someone deeply connected to the community, she brought an unparalleled level of knowledge and insight to the process. From our very first meeting, it was clear she was a tremendous asset. Her professionalism was matched only by her genuine care for our family’s needs. Donna took the time to listen closely to our priorities, tailoring her approach so that our home’s story was beautifully presented. She worked with us to orchestrate every detail—from staging and photography to open houses and negotiations—with remarkable precision and warmth. Throughout the entire process, Donna’s communication was exemplary. She was straight forward and transparent throughout the process, always setting clear, realistic and appropriate expectations. We never felt like we were in the dark, we never felt like we were alone, and we always felt supported. She was readily available to answer our questions, provide updates, and offer reassurance whenever uncertainties arose. Her ability to anticipate challenges and address them proactively meant that the process unfolded smoothly from start to finish. We are so grateful for Donna. Selling a home can be a stressful experience, but her calm confidence and expertise made us feel supported and confident. She not only helped us achieve a fantastic result on the sale of our home, but she also left us with a sense of gratitude for her unwavering support and commitment. It’s rare to encounter someone so dedicated and passionate about their work, and we feel truly fortunate to have had her by our side during this pivotal chapter in our lives. We wholeheartedly recommend Donna to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, trustworthy, and dedicated real estate agent.

When it came time to sell my home, and buy a new one, I didn't know where to start. I reached out to Donna with a recommendation from a friend and I'm so glad I did. She walked me through the whole process from looking at houses (for almost a year!!!), to helping me purge as I prepped to move, to staging the house for sale, and, of course, showing it. She was able to get me 20% above asking for my sale. For both the sale and the purchase, she worked very well with the other side and we were able to close on both quickly. I couldn't have done this without her.

Highly recommend Donna for your house hunt! She helped me get my dream home in a very tough buyer's market, in a very high-demand area. I'm confident few other Realtors have the savvy to make your purchase go so smoothly— her experience was invaluable throughout the whole process. Would surely use again when the time comes!

If you are considering engaging Donna Nikic, look no further. I needed to hire an agent in New York to manage the sale of my parents’ home and investment properties. My family recently completed a very challenging transaction with Donna for their long-time home in Croton. The house had been neglected as my parents aged and it needed extensive TLC and complete staging. Donna provided an excellent analysis of the different approaches to ready the house for market keeping an eye on the bottom line. No one wants to spend big money to prepare a home for sale, and Donna understood that perfectly. Donna took charge of everything, handling dozens of maintenance tasks. She staged the 4,400 sq. ft. home from top to bottom as part of her commission. She worked tirelessly to prepare the offering in record time. Her experience and contacts in residential construction were invaluable. An added challenge was working with my 85+ year old parents who were moving out of state. Donna treated my parents like they were her own, demonstrating a level of patience that is hard to articulate—it came from her inner core. We interviewed a few other real estate agents before making a decision and Donna stood out. She had her eye on a target number that was $500,000 higher than her competitors vying for the listing. She knows the Westchester County market and secures top dollar for your home. The right offer was accepted within two weeks. As a result, we hired her for additional properties that anyone would typically pass off to a junior partner. These properties were dirty, neglected, and occupied by long-term tenants who had no intention of moving. Donna rolled up her sleeves and jumped into the challenge. The two properties went above asking with cash offers secured in a weekend. Her experience in coordinating permit issues with local governments, carpenters, plumbers, electricians, and other service providers is rarely found. I can’t imagine better outcomes.

Working with Donna was a great experience - the house was well priced and received immediate offers. Donna took care of almost everything I needed, was highly responsive, knowledgeable and provided great advice on what we needed to do (and not do) to get the best price quickly. I highly recommend Donna for your real estate needs.

Cannot say enough about Donna Nikic! Besides being caring, personable and intelligent she’s a dynamite real estate professional working for an exceptional agency. She rescued us from what could have been a horrible disaster! Donna understands people and all the emotions and details involved in leaving a home and finding a new one. She's an astute listener. Her calming presence, hand holding, sense of humor and warm hugs truly helped these two seniors through a traumatic time in our lives. Donna expertly guided us to get our house ready for sale with practical suggestions we wouldn’t have thought of on our own. With her wide knowledge of specialized and dependable people to assist with this process we found the perfect ones to get the jobs efficiently done. Donna’s insight, attention to detail and continual followup keeps everything moving along step by step. Her years of experience and respect she has in the field are obvious. Her finger is indeed on the pulse of the housing market. We are grateful Donna was recommended to us and we highly recommend her to anyone considering selling or buying a home.

Donna’s expertise, professionalism, and responsiveness to her clients is truly impressive! As first time home buyers we felt fully supported each step of the way. Donna was patient, friendly, and understanding, answering all of our questions. We were amazed by her dedication and wealth of knowledge. Donna was very accommodating with our schedule. She arranged house viewings with ease and lined up multiple homes at convenient times to maximize our time. She welcomed our young children and engaged them while we toured homes.

She took time to educate us so that we became informed and strategic buyers. She took the time to listen to our priorities and she found a home for us with everything we valued. After we won a competitive bid, she helped us build an amazing support team. Her years of experience provided connections to some of the best professionals in the area.

She offered guidance as needed and was extremely responsive to phone calls, emails, and in-person meetings. Her expertise ensured that our home buying experience was seamless.

From start to finish Donna demonstrated knowledge, patience and a thorough understanding of the market. She made what was a very difficult transition for my family, a manageable one. Trusting that your realtor has your best interests was never in question with Donna. I recommend her wholeheartedly!

Donna could not have been more supportive during my recent house purchase. Her knowledge of the market and the area were absolutely invaluable for me, who was moving across the country and buying a house for the first time in many, many years. Once the house was purchased she made sure I felt welcome in the community, introduced me to people who could help me and has followed through in her desire to be sure I feel part of the Croton community. This is what realty should be.

Donna was incredible! Her knowledge of the market combined with her professionalism, hard work and compassion made selling my house so much easier. She worked tirelessly for me and the results showed!
