Experience, expertise, and the personal attention at the level you expect… everyone wants this and deserves this when working with a Professional Real Estate agent.

I entered the Real Estate profession after I went through the process of selling and buying a home for the first time back in 1999. After the experience, I took away the pros and cons and knew what I now expected in a Realtor.  I was confident that I could be that person and provide this superior quality of service to those who entrusted me.

I have been told repeatedly that I expect perfection, to which I reply, “Why not?”  Coming from a finance background for a major Fortune 500, I transitioned to real estate with the business skills and discipline already possessed and the desire to be the type of agent I would expect for myself.

I have been a local Fairfield County resident for 38 years who grew up in New York but has been relocated several times including internationally.   You can read all the clichés about moving being the second most stressful event in your life, but until you experience it, the magnitude of that statement does not truly set in. I lived it and can empathize with the personal aspect of moving. It takes resilience, patience and most importantly, the assistance of an expert to assist you along the way. That is where I come in… let me make this life changing experience a pleasant one for you with the confidence that you are with an agent who does not just care about the business aspect of this move, but more importantly, the personal attention so often lost in our busy lives today.

Testimonials

Donna DePalma is a GEM! Only because of her other rave reviews did we choose her to be our real estate agent/angel in our search from Charleston SC ...for our forever home in Connecticut. She and my husband did a power tour of five houses in one day and we found our dream home. Donna's expert guidance, sense of humor and hard work were paramount in this journey - and through it all we have our first local friend! Look no further than Donna DePalma to help you navigate this very tricky market!

Liz Layton

Donna was attentive, thorough, and patient through the entire purchasing process. Thank you again for assisting us with the purchase of our home!

Carrie Priano

Donna was amazing to work with on this house sale! The transaction came with multiple challenges from presale preparation, finding maintenance people to address repair issues, identifying vendors to empty unwanted contents, and navigating and researching the potential buyers to find the best buyer match. Donna's service was expeditious and top-notch. She was extremely professional and successfully helped us navigate touchy issues between the buyer and their lawyer. I would highly recommend Donna to any buyer or seller as she handles her transactions with full transparency and complete integrity. Donna made this transaction run smoothly while delivering a fair price for all. Thank you Donna!

Marilyn Swanson

Donna did a phenomenal job working with us toward successfully selling our property. Was a great advisor to us as we worked through the process.

Timothy D.

Donna Depalma was was so dedicated to getting everything done right and in a super timely manner. I can't imagine going through the home buying process with anyone else. Even our lender said she was the most attentive realtor they have ever worked with. I know that she went above and beyond for us and we appreciate it more than words can express. We will definitely use Donna again and will be recommending her to all of our friends and family in the future.

Nicole Desrosier

Donna Depalma was absolutely outstanding to work with. She went far above and beyond as a realtor in order to facilitate a smooth process to find our dream home. Throughout looking in this difficult market and the process of financing through a VA loan she could not have been more helpful. We were truly blessed to work with her and thankful for her.

Collin O'Meara

Donna was an amazing real estate agent and we couldn’t have imagined going through this process with anyone else! She was supportive, honest and trustworthy every step of the way. We knew she had our best interest in mind.

Patrick Lippin

Donna DePalma was an absolute superhero. She was amazing throughout the whole experience. We really enjoyed working with her, she was very friendly and positive from the first minute. We felt like we were in good hands the whole time. There were some twists and turns with the process, and we're first time home buyers so we were a little rattled at times, but Donna took great care of us and helped us not get too worried. We had a great experience with her and will certainly be recommending her any chance we get.
