Working with Marie to find and purchase our dream home in Ashland was a pleasure from start to finish! Not only is she professional, responsive and very knowledgeable about the local market but she was a joy to work with. She went out of her way to make sure we saw all that the market had to offer before we picked our home, guided us smoothly through making an offer and was aggressively our advocate/ liaison with getting through the closing process. Plus, after the deal was done, she went out of her way to help us find local resources like Internet, etc. We cannot recommend her highly enough! Thank you, Marie! Less

Marie adeptly navigated her buyer of our property through some very treacherous banking issues that were only resolved at the last minute. Through the ENTIRE process Marie was professional, calm and very helpful to us, as we had chosen to list our property with a limited services realtor and our knowledge of some of the requirements was minimal. Because of her evident professionalism, we also asked her to help us purchase our next property as well. Her level of enthusiasm and real estate acumen was apparent through both of these transactions. We are now in our "FOREVER HOME" and won't need Marie's professional help again, but because of her involvement with us, we now consider Marie Donovan a personal friend. My husband and I would DEFINITELY recommend her as a listing/buying/selling professional. Less

With Marie Donovan's help, we moved from out of state to our home in Ashland, Oregon. Marie came highly recommended and she lived up to her reputation. She is extremely knowledgable in the Ashland market and highly competent in the real estate process; she was very sensitive to our needs and a pleasure to work with. She is someone you can trust. Marie guided us in finding our lovely home in the perfect location. We felt that she actually wanted us to find the home that was best for us. We look back on our buying experience with her as very positive. Our home is all that she promised it would be. Without reservation, we highly recommend Marie. Michael and Susan Less

Marie Donovan is, hands down, the best realtor we've ever engaged. This, from a couple who have, because of the demands of career, bought or sold 8 times in our lifetime. She is honest and realistic, with integrity plus, and by the time she helped us sell our home in Ashland, OR, became a personal friend for life. What my wife and I respected so much about Marie was her personal interest in our sale. She did not sugarcoat the market but she helped us work for the best possible price when we made a sound decision on the price point. Her counsel during the negotiation was shrewd and honorable. Marie Donovan is the epitome of what a realtor should be. Les AuCoin US Congressman (ret) Oregon Less

Marie has helped me buy/sell a home three different times in the last 10 years. I appreciate Marie's knowledge of the local housing market and her understanding of what it takes to close deals. She is kind and personable and knows how to be assertive without being pushy. I have been impressed with Marie's ability to sell homes in both good markets and in poor markets. Her work ethic and dedication combined with her caring personality make Marie an excellent choice for a real estate professional. Less

Marie was wonderful!! She helped me to sell 2 houses and buy 1 over a several year time period. Her advice on how to get a home ready to sell was spot on: I house sold just as it listed and another sold in 3 months in a very tight market. She was supportive, honest and provided important advice as well as perspective. I had nothing but the highest regard for her in all my interactions. When I was looking to buy a house, she was very responsive to my time frame, helped me process the options and truly "had my back" in all ways. This was done at the same time she was professional and fair to all parties. I would recommend her to anyone!! Linda Less

I have worked with many different kinds of professionals, including--a long time ago but never again--other realtors. Marie Donovan is simply the best. She has assisted me with my last five transactions, and her work was invaluable, saving many tens of thousands of dollars, perhaps more. She helped me think through hard decisions, prioritize competing factors and identify even the most subtle pros and cons of different choices. Her big picture view of things is complemented by her extraordinary attention to detail and impeccability of work. Her perceptiveness and wisdom is delivered in the most graceful and pleasant manner. She seems savvy about everything there is to know regarding real estate and her customer service goes way beyond anything I've ever seen. I usually don't "gush" when providing a recommendation. It's just that Marie Donovan is SO terrific, anything less than the above would not sufficiently represent my respect and gratitude for her work. Less

Marie has helped me to buy two properties in Ashland and also to sell one of those properties. The rating I give her above is absolutely accurate. She is the best, most knowledgable real estate agent I have ever dealt with in Oregon, California, or New York.
