Donna assisted me in the sale of my home and my move to a condo. She knows the market and provides keen insights to clients. I have used her as both a seller and a buyer and have always found her to be honest and a tremendous resource. I highly recommend her to assist in your next sell or purchase.
Her knowledge, experience and her professionalism was there 100 percent for me.
Donna was an outstanding agent for the sale of our home. In our first meeting she was open to her background and experience. Her honesty and care came through when asking us what we wanted from the sale of our home. She gave me a feeling she was on our team when discussing strategy and allowing an exchange of ideas. No matter the issues that arose, her patience was also another key factor to help us get to the finish line. We highly recommend Donna for the sale or search for your next home.
Donna was an exceptional resource throughout the processes of preparing, marketing and selling my home. She effectively led the process of placing the home in coming soon status resulting in many viewings as soon as it went on the market. We received multiple viewings and accepted a quality offer on the second day on the market. She continued to lead us through each step of the settlement process. Donna Weaver is a very talented and resourceful agent focused on customer communication and service.
Donna Weaver was an incredible resource throughout the process of selling my home. She provided resources for updating the home in preparation for sale. Her understanding of the market was exceptional and allowed us to appropriately price our home for the demands of the market. Our home was under contract following multiple offers in just two days. While under contract she continued to advise us efficiently through the settlement process. I highly recommend her to anyone considering the sale of their home.
Donna was truly amazing to work with as I worked through the sale of my aunt’s condo as part of the administration process for her estate. She was there every step of the way offering ideas, providing guidance, and sharing her expertise with me. She educated me through the transaction as well and the entire process was seamless and stress-free. I would highly recommend Donna to anyone looking to buy or sell a home - A+ 5 stars! Thank you Donna!
My wife and I were under the gun. I had just gotten a new job, and extremely noisy neighbors moved in next to us. The market was insane. We felt overwhelmed as first-time homebuyers. After reviewing what seemed like hundreds of real estate agent reviews, we finally discovered Donna Weaver. We didn't know it then, but going with Donna as our real estate agent was the best decision we could have made. From our first meeting, Donna took the time to get to know us and learn about our needs and wants. She was always available to answer our questions and concerns, even late at nights. We breezed through more than a dozen houses in just a few weeks, many of them scheduled last minute. She was there for us the whole time. What makes Donna special is that she genuinely loves homes and people. Sometimes, we would see a house, and she would quietly remove a piece of trash from the yard during our tour of the house because she couldn't bear the thought of a house being shown in bad condition. We always felt that we could trust Donna; there were times when we, feeling rushed, might have pulled the trigger on a house that we were not 100% on. She never pushed us. Eventually, we finally found the house that we wanted the day we were to leave for a long holiday weekend. When we called her late at night with our decision, she had already had the paperwork drafted for us, because she had already understood that the house was exactly what we were looking for. She walked us through every page of our offer. We put the offer in, and it was thankfully accepted within 24 hours. Even after the sale was finalized, Donna made sure that we had everything we needed and that the transition was smooth. She even left a Thanksgiving gift by our door! We plan to live in our new home for a long time. And then, once it's time to move on, we will be selling the house through Donna. Buying our first home was a stressful process. But we weren't alone, and we weren't lost, because we had Donna.
We found Donna through RateMyAgent/Zillow reviews. Her clients all say the same - she's supportive, patient, available, and resourceful; and I stand by that too. Our home buying process took about 3-4 months and just like any homebuying journey, it was an emotional whirlwind. In the end, we closed on the most perfect home that was meant for us. Initially, I interviewed a few agents before choosing Donna. I wanted someone who was experienced (10yr+), knew Howard County area, resourceful with people (reputable and competitive lender and precise title company) who are good at what they do, and ultimately would be available to me at last minute at odd hours when I had a burning question; and Donna was all of the above and more. Any doubts I had dissipated when I started working with her - she is competitive and knowledgeable. Her talent as an agent really showed in the conversations she had with other agents and when it came time to put in an offer. She was supportive and encouraging throughout our journey and I always felt like she was on our side advocating for us. I strongly recommend Donna to any first time home buyer - she truly cares about your happiness and she will help you find the home of your dreams. She is as close to the agent of your dreams as anyone can be.

Trust. It is the most important thing to have in your relationship with a real estate agent. When interviewing potential agents, it was clear right off the bat that Donna was experienced, enthusiastic and had a very good command of the current state of the market. We were in a somewhat unique situation where we had a small window of opportunity to move into a place across the country that would be perfect for us. That meant leaving a 37-year-old house that needed renovating in the hands of an agent that we could trust. Donna had previously worked with someone in a similar situation who had also posted a rave review about her. So, between our initial connection with Donna and her prior experience, we knew we could count on her. She did not let us down. She pointed us in the direction of some firms she had previously worked with who will do renovations and take their payment at settlement. The company we chose (Residential Real Estate Solutions), along with Donna, did an excellent job in guiding us through what changes would be most beneficial to make our home attractive on the market. We trusted their recommendations, let them do the work as we sat back and drove across the country. They also were very up front about how each suggestion would help maximize the return on investment. Donna also suggested we physically stage the house for showing, as it makes it more attractive than showing the house empty. Donna assured us the small cost of staging would be worth it. When our home hit the market, it looked fantastic! We accepted an offer the second day it was on the market for over 12.5% of our asking price! The buyers clearly loved what they saw. We surely would not have gotten an offer like that, nor would we have been able to even ask what we did, without putting our trust in Donna and her team. And while it is impossible to determine exactly what the return on investment was, we certainly got back more than we invested in the renovations. I couldn’t re
It's been over twenty years since we have looked for a new home. Donna has made this task more of an adventure than a chore - which we both appreciated greatly. She helped us identify the home we eventually bought and made the process tolerable with her can do attitude and follow up. Highly recommend her services.
First time homebuyers here. To sum up our experience in two words: Trust Donna! As first time homebuyers in a hot market, we put our trust in Donna as our buyer’s agent. She led us through the home buying process and was quick to answer all our first time homebuyer questions. Our inexperience was overcome by Donna’s deep knowledge of the Howard County real estate market. She’s well connected with many movers and shakers in Howard County, that means she has deeper insight into the locations and other teams involved that can help you get the house you love. Donna is very quick to answer any first time homebuyer questions via email / phone / in-person. She truly cares about our experience. She’s willing to spend hours with us explaining the offer letter and even crafting many offer letters just so we can get the hang of how these offer letters work. So what’s the result? Third times a charm! After getting 2 rejections and multiple home viewings, we found our lovely home in Columbia, MD. Great location, great school system, solid house, within our budget and using the VA Loan. Our search started in May and we closed in July. This whole process to include the crazy real estate market that we’re in, we’re so glad to have Donna represent us, fight for us, and keep our best interests in mind. Trust Donna and Elevate Real Estate!
