Donna is an amazing realtor, she was able to secure a buyer before we could even have an open house! She made everything work, there isn't a task she can't handle. Any "obstacle" that popped up she promptly fixed them and made the selling process smooth.

Donna did a great job for me, selling my house in Chesterfield. She took care of many details, including finding contractors to make repairs while I was out of the country.

Dan C.

I just closed a transaction today working with Donna. While working with her to help our respective clients, she was highly communicative. I never had to wonder what was going on, and that is absolute GOLD to anyone working with her! Awesome agent!

Donna was diligent in marketing our piece of property through the fall and winter. She assured us spring would bring fresh offers and it did. She was supportive of our asking price and we never felt that lowering the price was the answer for a quicker sale.
She kept in touch via phone and text. We are out of state and was able to handle the settlement via email.
We highly recommend Donna Dodd as a realtor due to the high quality and professional care she showed us throughout our interactions.

Michelle T.

I can’t say enough about Donna. She was there with my husband and myself every step of the way. We were so stressed and in a time crunch. She helped us get everything we needed in place and found the best people to get us our new home in 2 weeks so we could stop stressing and enjoy our life again after a very long and tough move from another state. Thank you Donna for your tireless work for us.

Katherine M.

Donna is a fantastic realtor! This was my first home, and she made the entire process a breeze! If a problem would arise, she was quick to find a solution to keep things moving. She is extremely kind, easy to talk to, and very knowledgeable. She answered all my questions day and night (and trust me, there were many questions!). She is very trustworthy and patient, and always put me/my needs first! It was clear from day 1 she was dedicated to helping my buy my first home through her quick responses and awesome negotiating skills with the seller's relator. I highly recommend Donna to anyone buying a home - she is the best! Thanks Donna!

Patti U.

Looking back at it, we probably should have bought the first house Donna showed us. We were referred to Donna and from the very first meeting we appreciated her deep knowledge of the area. We felt comfortable and she understood what we wanted in our next home. The first home she showed us that was exactly what we asked for. Of course we thought about it for a bit, but by the time we were ready to bid, it was already under contract. Summer of 2021 was a crazy time to be house hunting. The market was tight and houses were going fast and selling for over asking price. Over the course of the next few weeks, we virtually looked at a lot of places, and followed up the good ones with in-person viewings. Throughout the whole process Donna kept communications at just the right level - just often enough and relevant enough that we knew she was actively trying to match us up. In June, Donna found us the perfect home at asking price and near perfect terms. She also helped us find a good financial agent and a very thorough and helpful home inspector. As luck would have it, our new home is literally right next door to the first house she brought to our attention! I wonder if they'd trade? I would and have recommended Donna to everyone.

Breylinn M.

Donna was great to work with from start to finish. From listing my home to the closing date she was always a phone call away. I would recommend Donna for selling or purchasing a home. Will be using her again when I purchase my next home.

Christian M.

Hands down, Donna, is an all-star! Since our first home she has treated us like family. Answered all of our questions. Responsive 24/7. Will go above and beyond to make sure you are well taken care of. Her negotiating skills are excellent! I have nothing but respect, she certainly knows my family well by now and we always stay in touch. She will always be my number 1 realtor.

Nina Pfeiffer




Donna was a fantastic realtor. She was very timely in getting back to us about any questions or tasks. She quickly found us the perfect house and was instrumental in getting all the details hammered out. She went to bat for us in getting the seller to pay for and complete all the repairs identified by the inspector. She provided us with valuable contacts for the improvements we wanted to make on our new home, such as a painter, a carpenter and an electrician. She is very personable and professional. I highly recommend her.

Karly Casanave-Phillips



Words cannot express how thankful we are for Donna and her hard work! We felt incredibly supported throughout the home buying process, with Donna making herself available for any and all questions and connecting us with her network of professionals when needed. Her extensive knowledge helped us make choices that we were comfortable with and make offers with confidence. She stayed two steps ahead to make sure everything was completed in a timely manner and that we could move into our home as soon as possible. Donna is THE best person to have in your corner during the home buying process--THANK YOU, DONNA!!

Working with Donna to find a home in Williamsburg was a great experience for us! She listened carefully to our needs and desires, sent us personalized MLS search results daily, alerted us to houses that would be coming on the market, and was willing to meet us at all hours. She set up showing after showing for us, never failed to work around our schedule, met us at every house, and actually managed to make house searching fun for us even during one of the most difficult sellers market in years!! We would recommend Donna to anyone seeking a realtor who is professional, knowledgeable, calm, practical, kind and accommodating, without being high pressure. Wonderful experience.

Donna really went the extra mile to find us a place to rent after our house sold quickly. We look forward to working with her when we are ready to buy again.

Tireless. Professional. Personable. She will go the extra mile and then some. I cannot say enough nice things about Donna. We searched for our dream house for two years. She was happy to show us many properties. She was ready to search as long as it took, to find our dream home. And she did! Thank you so much, Donna! Do yourself a favor! Call her today!

Donna first represented my wife and me as buyers for a condo to have as a retirement get-away very close to Colonial Williamsburg. The selection was perfect and the processes implemented by Donna were well planned and executed. She is highly knowledgeable of the local area, careful with each detail from contract to completion. Trustworthiness, immediate response to questions and issues are so evident in the professionalism demonstrated by Donna. We were so fortunate to additionally experience her sincere dedication to us as sellers this past Spring. She carefully took and chose interior photos and immediately posted our property. The listing resulted in four showings in less than 24 hours and 3 offers, two of which were in excess of asking price. Donna had the best approach to negotiations and guided us confidently through the selling process. Her excellent communication skills and dedication to us as clients (both buyers and sellers) were much appreciated leading us to a successful real estate experience in both a very competitive and challenging market. We are completely satisfied and so fortune to have had two Donna as our realtor.

Caitlin Barnes

We met Donna 2 years ago at an open house. We were looking for a rental at the time, but Donna was so friendly and helpful that we remembered her when it came time to buy. She has such a warm and positive demeanor, and never once pressured us to buy a house we didn't feel was the perfect fit. I would highly recommend Donna to anyone looking for a realtor in the Wburg/Hampton Roads area. She is very knowledgeable about the area and has expertise on the builder/mortgage side as well. With Donna, you will always feel like you are her only client. She is quick to respond to whatever you need along the way! Thank you Donna!
