What clients say about this agent....
I cannot recommend Donna enough, as she made the process of purchasing a property in Northern Virginia absolutely seamless and enjoyable. From the very first conversation, she demonstrated exceptional professionalism, deep local expertise, and a genuine passion for helping her clients. Donna's attention to detail and dedication to my needs were truly remarkable. She took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for in a home and used her extensive knowledge of the Northern Virginia market to find properties that perfectly matched my criteria. Every step of the way, from touring homes to negotiating a great deal and ensuring all the paperwork was in order, Donna handled everything flawlessly. Donna was always available to answer my questions--no matter how small--and her communication was always clear, prompt, and professional. She consistently went above and beyond, whether it was arranging last-minute showings, giving invaluable advice, or ensuring the closing process went smoothly. Her ability to navigate the competitive market with confidence and skill was incredibly reassuring. Thanks to Donna and Paton Real Estate, I now own a home that I absolutely love, in a location that perfectly suits my lifestyle and goals. If you're searching for a real estate agent who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and truly invested in your success, look no further than Paton Real Estate. I wouldn't hesitate to work with her again in the future! Thank you, Donna, for making my home-buying experience such a positive and rewarding journey!
As first time home buyers, Donna was tremendous, as she helped us step-by-step through a very stressful process. She was very quick to respond to our many, many questions and was always ready to help us. Home buying is scary, but Donna was fantastic at easing our fears throughout the entire process. She is knowledgeable with the VA loan process and knew how to get us the most for our money. She has many connections in the DMV and even helped us after closing to find reputable contractors, etc. We would not be in our new home without her!
Donna went out of her way to find places for me, and to arrange viewings at the earliest possible moments to get the early bird advantage. We found my new home and closed within 2 weeks; a remarkable feat. Thank you, Donna!
Donna Paton of Paton Real Estate took on the sale of our penthouse condo apartment in our complete physical absence. Agreeing on a schedule, Donna immediately went to work, recruiting a mover, who turned out reliable, and overall very satisfactory. After our moving out, Donna organized the removal of the remaining furniture, and a large number of household items. Then, she recruited a company to refurbish the apartment to contemporary tastes. Then, Donna recruited a company preparing the sale presentation, with video of the results provided. Then, most importantly, she quickly found a buyer, offering the list price, and requesting a one month window to closing date. Closing took place as scheduled (not requiring our presence). At every step, Donna informed us immediately, and quickly initiated the next step without delay. You could not wish for a better agent than Donna Paton.

Donna helped us buy our first home a few years ago! She is very knowledgeable about the market and the areas we were looking to purchase our home. Donna also helped us sell our home. She was quick and helpful about getting our house on the market! In both cases, Donna listened to our concerns and made us feel comfortable about our decisions. She offers a unique perspective and doesn't just tell you what she thinks you want to hear. She made us feel like family and had our best interest at heart. 10/10 would recommend Donna for all your real estate needs!
Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Donna is very professional in every aspect, always tried her best to do a good job. I was very pleased with her successful marketing and selling my property. I recommend her very highly
Donna is very pleasant lady, very approachable ,always available for any questions you might have. She goes extra mile to keep you happy and market your property or find you the house you looking for. I have no hesitation recommending her.
I recently sold my condominium in Fairfax thanks to Donna Paton. When I first met with Donna, she listened to me and asked questions to help me clarify my goal. Donna explained what characteristics and upgrades would likely help the condo sell quickly, but she always left it up to me to decide what to do. She kept in touch and offered encouragement. Then, she used her experience and expertise to target my property to the right buyers. I was grateful for her guidance from start to sold. When it is time for me to buy my next home, I know Donna will be my real estate agent!
Donna was absolutely great to work with! She was extremely knowledgeable and came up with great recommendations. When I couldn't find a contractors within the time frame that I was looking for, she jumped in and helped me to find one. One week after Open House, I received 2 offers and got what I was asking for. I highly recommend her and would definitely work with her again!
