Testimonials

"Professional, experienced, excellent!
Donna is a long-time professional agent in this market. She was amazing in so many ways, from helping us find a place that was perfect for us to advising us on a winning bidding strategy, to helping us get through the bumps along the way. Her relationships with the various vendors, contractors, government officials, etc. made everything easier to accomplish.
I have bought and sold a few houses over the years and can honestly say Donna is one of the best agents I have worked with. Apart from her real estate expertise, she is very smart and personable, and attentive, with an engaging sense of humor.
I would strongly recommend Donna as a real estate agent for anyone buying or selling a house on Cape Cod.

"Quality service, fantastic person!
Donna get's the job done. Our property had some challenging aspects that Donna handled with ease. She knows the Cape real estate market and has all the local contacts. Positive attitude, professional, tireless work ethic, problem solver etc... It was our lucky day when we met Donna. By far the best real estate experience we've ever had.
Thank you so much,

"Best Realtor
Donna was recommended to me and my sister by our layer. We both live in Sweden and didn?t know anything about selling a house in USA. We are so thankful for all the professional help she gave us and the suggestions of improving things in the house. Since we had no possibility to be in the house more than a few weeks at a time she helped us with contacting craftsmen who did necessary work in the house. She took care of everything in an excellent way.
If you are going to sell Donna is the realtor to choose. She is professional, helpful and knows a lot about the outer Cape. She makes you feel like you have known her for a long time.

Wow, am I ever glad I picked you.
Fantastic job, your "prep" was terrific, you attention to detail, your attitude, your commitment to the cause are ALL very impressive.
Thank you so much, for your effort, and your continuing effort to get this closed as quickly and efficiently as possible.
YES, your the BEST in Eastham, and deservedly so !!!
Tom Latham (Eastham)

"Incredible knowledge of the outer cape
Donna was recommended to us by one of her former clients who raved about her. Now we know why they raved. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the outer cape and taught us so much valuable information that helped us understand the region, the neighborhoods and the nitty-gritty of cape houses. She is the type of professional who is at the top of their game and does it all with a warmness and enthusiasm that is infectious. She knows so many of the other agents too and can share key insights that only come from someone who has been living in the area for decades. She doesn't sugar coat things and will tell you when she doesn't love a house and why, which is very educational. We've bought and sold several homes over the years and Donna was, hands down, the best agent we've worked with.

"Truly outstanding and the best at her profession
Donna Gemborys is everything that you want in an agent. She has the highest level of professionalism, knows EVERYTHING about the market and has an innate 'emotional intelligence' in every situation. She clearly understood what the we (the clients) wanted and needed, while also offered great advice on how to navigate each situation that arose during the process. During this time, she never made us feel like we were putting her out of her way and always made us feel like that she was happy to help us. Donna actually managed to make house hunting enjoyable in this intensive and competitive market!

Being a native to the Cape, Donna had an incredible depth of knowledge about the area. Everything from pros and cons of the neighborhoods (down to the street level) while also bringing up considerations that would have not crossed our mind. She also had a wonderful list of local tradespersons to help when needed.

We had unique needs (a child with a physical disability) and we were worried that it could be difficult to find 'the right house' in this market. Donna was never deterred and sure enough, she knew when the right house was coming on the market. She was able to quickly highlight a house was coming on the market, with the note 'this could be the one!!'. She was 100% correct. Knowing that she listened to our needs so closely, never pushed us to move forward on something that was missing critical elements, and actually could identify the right house before it was even officially listed--- truly outstanding.

Thanks to the internet, one night think of Realtor/Client relationships as being quick without much art to the process. If you think this way, you have never worked with Donna! She has shown us how much help, support and guidance an agent can provide. Her interactions with other agents showed us how respected she was in the field. She has clients for life and we will happily share how truly outstanding she is to anyone that asks.

"Donna is the best Realtor to consider:
Donna managed completely all aspects of the sale of my Eastham home. She viewed the property,
suggested needed repairs and improvements, secured contractors' bids , and supervised quality and
timely completion. She had the home cleaned and staged for viewing and under contract at a wonderful
price for the seller. She secured a lawyer for the seller and coordinated a smooth closing. She did all of
this for me as I recovered from surgery in Connecticut. I hope to meet this amazing lady and Realty
Professional someday ."
Paul B.

Force of Nature:
Donna is a force of nature! We have bought and sold several homes, but we have never worked with a
realtor who was more knowledgeable, worked harder, or was more responsive than Donna. We would
not have sold our home without Donna's exceptional networking skills. Donna has an outstanding eye
for detail when looking at homes. She told us what needed to be done to put our house in the most
marketable shape to be sold. Furthermore, she has a list of trusted service providers (from home
inspectors to bankers to locksmiths) who made our lives much easier. "Excellent" is not high enough of a
rating--she is truly outstanding!

Diana B.

"First met Donna when she was the agent for the seller of a home we were buying. Later we contracted
with Donna to be our Buyer's Agent for another home purchase. Subsequently we also contracted with
her to be the Seller's Agent for one of the properties. She is extremely knowledgeable about local
markets and conditions. Works extremely hard for her clients. Would recommend her either as a Seller's
Agent or a Buyer's Agent."
John & Eileen

"Donna is outstanding!
I was at a serious disadvantage buying a new home from long distance. Donna was my eyes and ears
throughout the entire transaction. She clearly understood my situation and worked very tirelessly on my
behalf. I am a very happy new homeowner."
Joan L.

"She was very experienced and helped me sell a home that needed a lot of help to move out 100 year
old
Donna has worked with our family multiple times as a real estate agent. She was able to provide a lot of
information and was very patient with an elderly person moving out of their home. She did a great job
with the photography listing and advertising. She also helped with getting issues resolved with the septic
system. She kept us informed about what needed to be done to sell the property. I would definitely use
her again."
Cecille C.

"On Top of Everything:
From the beginning, Donna had a timeline and a plan of what needed to be done for the most successful
sale. She communicated with us frequently all along the journey, from inspections to closing. Her years
of experience shows in every aspect of her work. And, when the sale was completed, we felt we had
gained a friend, not just a business partner."
Seller

"A Pleasure to Work With:
Donna is a true professional. Her deep knowledge of the real estate market couples with her excellent
communication skills make her the perfect real estate agent to work with. We worked with Donna for
two years before we bought our house and she was always patient and understanding during that time.
She never put pressure on us and always gave us excellent advice as we looked at homes, made offers
and dealt with the rejections. We finally found a great home and Donna led us through the process
always having our best interests in mind. I highly recommend Donna to anyone either looking to buy or
sell a home.
"
Paul M. & Anna A.

"Donna Gemborys:
While Donna represented the buyers, she was equally attentive to me as the seller. Donna was excellent
in every way.... knowledgeable, on top of every detail, professional, thoughtful and communicated with
everyone to insure that everything went very smoothly. I highly recommend her."
Willow S.

Donna is a dynamo!
We have bought and sold several homes, but we have never worked with a realtor who was more
knowledgeable, worked harder, or was more responsive than Donna. We would not have found or
purchased our new home without Donna's exceptional networking skills, as our new home never went
on MLS. Donna has an outstanding eye for detail when looking at homes. Furthermore, she has a list of
trusted service providers (from home inspectors to bankers to locksmiths) who made our lives much
easier. "Excellent" is not high enough of a rating--she is truly outstanding!
Diana B

"A great communicator!
Donna recently helped us sell our family home in Eastham, she is a pleasure to work with! Due to Covid
we did most things remotely, Donna was always available for a quick chat or FaceTime call. She knows
the area very well and deserves her well earned 5 star reputation."
Alan W.

"A great agent!
Donna knows her stuff! She was extremely helpful in all aspects of the sale, and a pleasure to work with.

Carol D.

"Knowledgeable and Attentive
Donna was my real estate agent for purchasing my home on the Cape. She came highly recommended, and she did not disappoint! She knows Eastham and the surrounding towns very well. She was aggressive following up with the sellers broker during the entire process. She is great at communicating via text, email or phone. If you are purchasing a home in the Cape Cod area, Donna is a wonderful resource!"
Buyer

"We worked with Donna previously on a sale of property.
Even though Donna worked further down the Cape, she embraced the opportunity to add our unique town of Chatham, and set to work to gather the knowledge needed to list our home. When we suggested a different listing price, she did further investigating and agreed with us. From the beginning process, she came to our home and made observations which we embraced. Communication was ongoing, keeping us informed. When there was an offer, she guided us in making a decision, never being pushy, and standing up for what she believed was for our benefit. She's the best!"
Jim and Rita S.

"A rewarding experience
Donna's professionalism shined through her dedication to consistent care and concern for helping me find the house most suited to meet my needs. Her integrity, honesty, patience and congeniality characterized every aspect of the house-hunting process. Her skill in knowing the market and willingness to share that knowledge provided welcome insights for a successful outcome. From beginning to end every detail was attended to with alacrity, kindness and consideration. Those who choose to work with Donna can rest assured they'll be glad they did!"
Chris A.

"My experience with Donna was always top notch.
Donna was a very enthusiastic and helpful realtor especially during this year with the coved pandemic and my being an out of stater. Donna always kept me updated on the progress of the sale especially where it had to go through a lengthy Probate court and then Land court. Donna provided me a vendor list and recommendations of contractors etc she would recommend to perform work on property. She even contacted vendors to perform work for me when I was unavailable to. I would highly recommend Donna as a realtor of choice and would employ her again."
Jonathan J.

"Donna is an exceptional real estate agent. During our Cape Cod house search, Donna was immediately welcoming and extremely efficient at scheduling showings to make the most of our trip from out of town. She expertly identified the positives and potential issues of each property she showed us. We found a property on our first visit, even though we had very specific requirements. She was instrumental in getting our offer accepted. Donna also connected us with many local services enabling the closing to go more smoothly than we thought possible. We could not recommend Donna more highly."
Steve & Lisa G.

"I have sold two homes through Donna, as far as I am concerned, she's absolutely the best!
Donna knows Cape Cod like the back of her hand. She has lived there all her life, and is very knowledgeable. Donna is easy to work with, as well."
Suan A

"Wonderfully wonderful!
Donna is very knowledgeable, competent, patient, and understanding. She knows the Cape from Brewster to Wellfleet to Provincetown like her back hand. She has a great deal of experience in this market and tries to meet the exact needs of her clients. She had great energy and does not give up until she finds the right house for you as buyer and the right buyer for you as seller. She also has a million contacts for contractors, lawyers, bankers, handyman, furniture, and is more than willing to share names. She is also a kind person who develops individual relationships with all her clients. She is the best!"
Steven K

"Donna is the best!! She goes above and beyond for her clients. We got our dream house in an out- -of-control sellers market because of her skills. You want Donna as your agent."
Buyer

"Donna is the best!!
Donna is the best. She is professional, knowledgeable, always on your side, and a genuine and caring person. We can not praise her enough. We got our dream house thanks to her!"
Arlene A.

"One special person!
We have worked with Donna twice now and have only the highest praise for all she does! She is on top of all the details all along the way. She knows the market inside and out, never missing a beat! No one we have ever worked with could ever measure up! On top of that, she has become a dear friend. How wonderful is that!!"
Lynda and Edward S.

"Honest. Hard working. Determined
Fifteen years ago we bought our Cape house from Donna. The kids grew up and out. It was time to sell. We called Donna and she sold it in about a day! But that doesn?t tell the real story. Donna put in a lot of work before that day. For months before then, she was there helping us in all facets: pricing, staging, prep and timing. Our overnight success was the result of a lot of hard work by Donna. And even after the
offer and acceptance. She did a lot of work to get it closed in a timely and efficient manner. I recommend her without reservation."
John and Amy S.

"Donna is a gem!
Donna is a top notch agent!! But more importantly, she is extremely caring about her clients. Her knowledge and insight about the market coupled with her understanding of our needs and wishes landed us in the perfect home. We are grateful for her tireless devotion to us and our search."
Clint & Karen K.

"Donna?s the best!
Although she can be a bit quirky (which is actually a great trait to me), Donna knows her stuff. She knows the market, she knows what it takes to sell and market a property and she knows how to work hand and hand with you every step of the way. We have bought and sold with Donna and would seek out her services again if we find ourselves back on the Cape!"
Gus & Nancy B.

"Goes Above and Beyond
This is the second home Donna has sold for me, both in Eastham. She tells it like it is and gets the job done! I would not recommend anyone else but her on the Cape! She is always available no matter how busy she is. She has been in the business for many years and it is evident in her professionalism."
Linda J.

"Donna was fantastic ! VERY knowledgeable, organized, detail oriented, and hard working."

"Wonderful experience purchasing a 2nd home with Donna
We had a great experience purchasing a home with Donna?s help during Covid. Donna is super knowledgable of the market, the different areas and towns. She listened to all our needs, was patient and fully supportive during the buying process. We have found an amazing 2nd home and are excited to spend time in the cape. We will sure stay in touch as she became a friend."
Keler

"Very exceptional and very caring agent
We were totally blown away with how professional, as well as, very caring Donna was. She not only knows everything about the market and how the process works, but she also cares about her clients. She wants you to have a very positive experience and wants you to be very happy with your transaction. After my Mom's passing, we contacted Donna to sell my mom's house. We were so pleased with Donna's knowledge, professionalism, and care, that we didn't give a second thought to having Donna as an agent for us to purchase our home. Donna was very patient with us, showing us many homes for sale. Prior to showing us houses, she met with us to find out what features that we were looking for and she kept within those guidelines. Then one day she insisted that we look at a house that was slightly out of our priceline. She told us that it would fit us perfectly, she said that we would love it. Well, she was absolutely correct. It was love at first sight. Donna worked very hard and made it all happen. She was with us through the whole process and when there was a bump in the road, she reassured us and resolved every hurdle in an expeditious manner. She made everything look easy and she was always happy and smiling. She kept us apprised of every step and answered every question or concern that we had. Without any doubt, I can honestly say that she knows what she's doing and goes way beyond the call of duty. Whether selling your home or helping you find the right house, she works for your best interest and wants you to be happy with your transaction. Even now, if we see her out and about, she always asks us how the house is and if we are still happy with it. Of course we are happy with the house and happy that we had Donna to guide us. We have heard from many people that Donna was the best realtor and with 2 occasions of selling a home and buying a home, we can assure anyone that she definitely is the best realtor on Cape Cod. We highly recommend Donna.
"
Ted and Flora M.

"My husband and I have moved many times. Four of those times, we bought (and sold 3 times) with Donna as our Realtor. We've been friends since our first transaction. Donna is an excellent Realtor. She handles all the details with aplomb, removing all worries and cares from her clients. We're on our fourth home buy and it was accomplished without a hitch. Worry-free Realtor. We highly recommend Donna Gemborys."
Ron and Gerri L.

"Ours was a five star experience!
Following the passing of our parents, Donna handled the sale of their home and small guest cottage located on the property. This unique and potentially difficult to sell property sold in 2 days. She is very knowledgeable, unbelievably hard-hardworking, and connected. Through her excellent communications with us, the town, and the buyer?s agent, we were confident that we were in good hands. None of us live near Eastham or were familiar with the unique local requirements. Donna engaged with us from the beginning to the closing. She anticipated potential problems and had a solution for every issue that arose. She enthusiastically guided us from home prep to navigating inspections, addressing required town certifications & licensing, providing referrals for services we needed to complete any projects required, ensuring that we closed on time. One of us is a long term licensed real estate agent in OH with years of experience working with scores of great agents. He said Donna is not just great, but that the professional services she delivers are unsurpassed? the best he has ever seen. We all agree and we highly recommend Donna for real estate needs."

"Donna Gemborys was amazing! From our first conversation to our final walk-through, she expertly navigated the sale. She responded quickly to our queries, connected us with the many resources of Raveis (mortgage, insurance, attorney), helped set up utilities and walked us through any challenges faced. We are most grateful for Donna and Raveis in helping find our vacation home."
