Weichert Realtors

Donna Warters is aggressive, professional and pushy but this women will get your house sold. We interviewed other agents and based on what they said, I was discouraged and started thinking about walking away from the mortgage. I told them how much I needed to pay off the mortgage. They all suggested a starting list price that was lower than I could’ve taken even if I wanted to. They were very nice, with many compliments but told me my house would never appraise for what I was asking (and buyers wouldn’t be approved for mortgages that high).Then I met Donna. She was blunt and maybe a bit intimidating. She said my location was great, the kitchen/​dining area was «special» and the main selling point she’d highlight. When I said I was worried about it appraising for what I needed to get for it, she confidently said something like «you never know what will happen, people have a lot of cash to put down on houses these days, so the appraisal may not mean as much as you think. I can sell this house.» I felt she believed what she said. I decided to completely trust her. She made me (mostly) stop worrying and got my focus on getting the house sold. She even advised a higher listing price than I asked for. Donna was bossy from the moment I signed with her, about getting me to do certain things before she listed it. She was right about the urgency of every task, such as getting my basement cleaned out NOW, a railing for the stairs, and a few inexpensive tweaks here and there like curtain changes for lighting. I felt like a train wreck and wondered why she pushed me so hard to get everything done yesterday. i found out why fast. The day of my open house, the house was beautifully staged, much because of her suggestions. I got multiple offers that same day and a bidding war the next day. My house was SOLD under contract just 3 days after she listed it! She suggested which offer had the best chance for closing and told me why, and it wasn’t the one I thought best. I trusted her and wow, she is a great negotiator. We got a bit more than the listed price, and the sale closed in 6 weeks. She was constantly communicative and involved during the entire process. She has an assistant who is very reassuring and professional too. Donna is savvy, and I am glad I let her guide the process. She doesn’t get your listing for the commission and then disappear. She works for and earns every dollar. Go team Donna and many many thanks.
