Pennsyltuckian When Wells Fargo refused to renegotiate our mortgage after my cancer diagnosis, Donna became more than just our Realtor, she became our advocate. When the bank tried to foreclose during my chemo and radiation treatment, Donna accompanied us to the hearing, and helped us to negotiate a short sale. She didn't charge us a penny: even after Wells Fargo refused to pay her commission on the sale. Donna's sense of compassion and justice outweighed her need to make money, even after going far above and beyond her professional obligations to us as her clients. I recommend her without reservation whenever anyone asks if I know a good Realtor. The truth is, I know a great one. www.trulia.com/profile/donna-elder-agent-lexington-ky-4345695/reviews

11/11/2013 - rob653 Sold a Condo home in 2004 for approximately $75K in Jamestown, Lexington, KY. I worked with Donna for several years, and after getting out of real estate, she sold my condo for me. Donna is quite simply, the best. She truly cares, she loves the real estate business, and more importantly, people. She'll fight for you, and also tell you what you need to hear (but may not want to), in order to get your home sold. Obviously I recommend Donna highly. In real estate there's no guarantee that your transaction will be completely smooth and go exactly the way you want it to. But regardless, you will not find better representation than Donna. http://www.zillow.com/profile/Lexington-Realtor/Reviews/?p=2&s1=0&s2=1

10/28/2013 - marciaghunter Bought a home in 2013. Donna knows the area extremely well, where and what it has been and its present situation. She was an excellent listener to my thoughts and desires regarding location, requirements and desires about a new home for me. She showed me options that fit what she had heard and also some to stretch my search which was very helpful. When it came down to viewing a place she was able to point out assets and drawbacks according to what she had heard from me. Donna was helpful in thinking through the financial options, knowing what I had shared with her about my financial circumstances. She was quick to give me new information and responded rapidly to my calls. In the final choice, Donna sought to negotiate, but sellers did not budge, and the place was what I wanted so I paid the asking price. Overall, Donna's ability to listen, care and respond in a timely manner were exemplary and I have already given her name to another person, and sung her praises to many. http://www.zillow.com/profile/Lexington-Realtor/Reviews/?p=2&s1=0&s2=1

01/31/2013 - user25168501 Bought a Single Family home in 2011 in Lexington, KY. As a customer of Donna Elder's; I will say she works with complete diligence, integrity, and most importantly (for me) compassion. I have worked in the Building Inspection side of the Realtor world for 12 years and yet, she still taught me things I never knew. She held my hand not only through the finding my dream home side of Realty, but the financial side, the smart side, and the common sense side of all things Real Estate. Donna not only made my first home buying experience simple, she continued to keep contact with me, establishing not only a rapport... but, a friendship. She came to my first Thanksgiving dinner I hosted in our new home, she has checked on me periodically, she knows my children's names, and she even shared her own life experiences with me; which were learning experiences. As a member of the Lexington, KY community, Donna absolutely gives her all to this community and is well known on all sides of economic statuses as a hard working, honest, intelligent, and common sense contributor to our wonderful community. As painful as buying and selling can be, I actually look forward to the next time I get to take part in the process; because, I know Donna will be right there holding my hand with me. This is your realtor! If you're in my situation as a newly single mom, scared on your own for the first time, or a new family looking for a great school district; she has the most in depth knowledge of this community I have seen... And, as a public servant in the Building Inspection world, I've seen a lot! http://www.zillow.com/profile/Lexington-Realtor/Reviews/?p=4&s1=0&s2=1

02/01/2013 - user4603527 Bought a Single Family home in 2003 for approximately $175K in Lexington, KY. A friend recommended Donna to my wife and I as we looked into buying our first home. We quickly realized that we had someone who knew their stuff. She knew the areas and really helped point out some issues that we as first time buyers were overlooking. She made us feel comfortable and relaxed when we walked into a house. After the signing she would stop by and check on us and to see if there was any way she could help. We couldn't be happier with our experience buying a home with Donna and a slightly disappointed that the house we found is one that we don't plan on moving from anytime soon. It has been 10 years since we bought our home and I still feel I could call up Donna for help at our house if I needed someone to come over and let the cable guy in if I was stuck at work. She is that type of Realtor/friend. http://www.zillow.com/profile/Lexington-Realtor/Reviews/?p=4&s1=0&s2=1

10/19/2013 - kynetguy Bought a home in 2013. Donna is the consummate professional. While her negotiating skills are excellent, she is also realistic. She helped me negotiate the best price while not allowing me to submit an offer that would cause the builder to walk away from the deal. She knows the markets and she knows the builders and their negotiating limits. Her knowdge and experience in structural and housing in general far exceeds the average Realtor. She will point out areas of concern as you may expect only from an inspector. Her experience, knowledge and education in Real Estate is second to none. I loved working with Donna. This is the second home purchase I have had her as my Realtor. If there is a third, she will be my listing agent and buyers agent again.

11/23/2013 - danibr7 Sold a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $125K in Blueberry Hill-Brigadoon-Stoneybrook-Baralto, Lexington, KY. She was quite efficient with all the process: gave me essential information about the market conditions and the selling process without cluttering me with unnecessary detail. It is difficult to know how effective a realtor is in promoting a sale, because the client does not see much of that work, but I could have a glimpse based on the comments left by some buyer agents suggesting that Donna has an extensive network of contacts that she uses to promote the sale. Donna was prompt in listing the house and had showings almost every week. The only think I believe she could have done better is taking some more time in selecting the photographs to include in the listing. Anyway, she responded effectively in changing any photographs to my request. Overall she was efficient in selling my house, I would hire her again. http://www.zillow.com/profile/Lexington-Realtor/Reviews/?p=2&s1=0&s2=1

I'd also like to compliment her assistant Mary-fast with communications & very professional. www.trulia.com/profile/donna-elder-agent-lexington-ky-4345695/reviews

02/03/2013 - SeanGladding Bought a Single Family home in 2010 for approximately $150K in Duncan Park, Lexington, KY. Donna worked with us over several months, and when a house we had looked at earlier dropped in price, she called us immediately and helped us buy it. She remained involved after the purchase, recommending reliable local tradesmen for work we needed doing, and was always very responsive to our phone calls. My wife and I highly recommend her services. http://www.zillow.com/profile/Lexington-Realtor/Reviews/?p=3&s1=0&s2=1

07/17/2014 - rkellum Sold a Single Family home in 2014 for approximately $275K in Fairway-Liberty Heights, Lexington, KY. Donna is a highly knowledgeable, energetic, and pragmatic real estate agent who was worth her weight in gold in the sale of my house. With twenty six years of experience, she has her finger on the pulse of the real estate market throughout Lexington. She guided me through the process of determining an appropriate selling price that resulted in two offers in the first day of showing. Given that the asking price was significantly above the appraised value determined for it, it is likely that a higher price would have only resulted in the house sitting on the market for several more stressful months with an eventual sale for the price it sold for or less. The real stress in the sale of my house was in dealing with the results of the inspection. But Donna made this much more tolerable, both as a repository of information and connections needed to make cost-effective repairs under severe time constraint and as psychologist/ cheerleader in ushering me through the stress. How many real estate agents would volunteer to clean out the residue from your attic to meet a tight closing date deadline? Superwoman Donna did even this! http://www.zillow.com/profile/Lexington-Realtor/Reviews/

Elizabeth C When we embarked on this experience, my husband and I were worried about all horror stories we have heard from family and friends in regards to their home purchasing experiences. Our experiences could not have been more perfect! This team is top notch, professional, organized and dialed into the communities we toured. They are knowledge beyond what we even predicted we would need to be informed about. What makes this business special and unique is the personal connection they made with us; these ladies take pride in what they do. Donna, Missy, and Mary truly value their clients as people. It was evident from the beginning they regarded what our goal/vision was, our relator recognize what we found as our “Forever Home” and made our dreams become a reality-seamlessly. We hold them with highest esteem. http://www.trulia.com/profile/donna-elder-agent-lexington-ky-4345695/reviews

There simply is no one else I would recommend if you're either buying or selling.

She is a great judge of where to buy and I trusted her implicitly. I cannot thank her enough for finding me the perfect home at the perfect price.

Doug Turnbull Donna Elder of Remax Creative Realty in Lexington, Kentucky listed and successfully sold my townhouse. It just closed. This was not an easy deal as the market is flat and both I and the bank had to take a loss. Nonetheless, Donna stuck with it and managed to negotiate a short sale with the bank. If you have never been involved in one, believe me, it is not easy. It is very tricky and involves a lot more work that a straight sale. Donna and her assistant, Mary Kittinger did a masterful job of keeping the deal off the rocks. If you are buying or selling real estate, Donna Elder is the one to call. www.trulia.com/profile/donna-elder-agent-lexington-ky-4345695/reviews

10/25/2013 - edhdana Sold a home in 2012. I bought my Lexington house through Donna and sold it through her also. She knows the town, the availability of houses in specific price ranges, and reputations of the houses she shows. As the buyer's realtor she is all for the buyer, and her advice and guidance are unmatched. When I sold my house, she knew exactly what I could expect, and how I could get the best price. Since I had already moved out of state when my house in Lexington closed, she and her staff handled all necessary repairs and the closing itself. I have and will continue to recommend Donna to anyone buying or selling. She is tops. http://www.zillow.com/profile/Lexington-Realtor/Reviews/?p=2&s1=0&s2=1

02/01/2013 - user82461100 Bought a Single Family home in 1993 in Garden Springs, Lexington, KY. Donna helped with my first home purchase almost 20 years ago. I looked at over 50 properties as a young and excited first time homebuyer. Not one time did Donna ever tire on me. I bought another home recently with Donna as my agent. This woman is a true professional. Donna is extremely knowledgable about real estate, the construction of homes, loan processes, and many other aspects about buying and selling property. She has made many friends in her field and has an outstanding reputation. She also has a wonderful sense of humor and a very postitive attitude. The most impressive thing about Donna is her follow-through. She is detail oriented, never misses deadlines, and always finds an answer to your real estate questions. I sometimes wonder if Donna ever sleeps. Because of my personal experiences working with Donna, I know this woman gets results. When my daughter starting thinking about buying her first property I told her that if she called anyone, it better be Donna. I'm certain my daughter would agree that finding an outstanding agent like Donna is the difference between a good homebuying expereience and a great homebuying experience. http://www.zillow.com/profile/Lexington-Realtor/Reviews/?p=4&s1=0&s2=1

01/26/2013 - user1746615 Bought a Single Family home in 2012 for approximately $125K in Lexington, KY. My wife and I cannot say enough great things about Donna. She helped us purchase our first home and worked tirelessly to make sure that we found the perfect house. She responded to us quickly each time (no matter what the concern or time). She always knew someone who could help with any repairs needed, or she would guide us through what needed to be done herself. Her keen eye always helped us to see areas to be concerned about so that we could consider whether that issue was something we wanted to worry about or not. For novice home buyers, she provided motherly advice and showed genuine concern for us. In addition, she listened well and never pushed us to make a decision, but rather waited for when we were ready. Even though we are no longer working with her, she continues to stay in touch with us and is willing to help whenever needed. Buying a home is a long, stressful, but also exciting process. It is time consuming and you will be spending A LOT of time with your Realtor; therefore, you should choose someone likable, kind, intuitive, and knowledgeable---all of which (and more) describe Donna. I would highly recommend Donna Elder! http://www.zillow.com/profile/Lexington-Realtor/Reviews/?p=4&s1=0&s2=1
