Celebrating 20 years as a full-time Real Estate Professional. I hold a Managing Broker License as well as being an Illinois Licensed Real Estate Instructor. My certification and designations include Accredited Buyer's Representative (ABR)?, Military Relocation Professional (MRP)?, and the E-Pro? as well as having successfully completed Century 21 University's Managers course: Productivity Enhancement Program (PEP). My passion for helping people has always been a strong part of who I am. I am a military veteran (USCG/USCGr), and am an active volunteer for my local post as well as other organizations.

I am detail-oriented, and I am accustomed to helping clients from destination A to destination B quickly whether the move be personal or corporate relocation. Helping my military clients with either their change of station and end of service moves across the globe is very important to me. I hope that you will choose me to assist you in your next real estate endeavor. I strive to give my clients the best service every day, and dedicate myself to helping you have a smooth and well-orchestrated move.

Testimonials

This is the first time I worked with Donna Manella and was very pleased with her guidance in the sale of my property. She took the time to make it easily possible to accomplish everything I needed to do and took the time to explain everything to me in a way that I could understand exactly what I needed to understand. I had limitations that she compensated for and made this a very pleasant sales experience.

Thanks Donna for helping us and taking the time with us



Janusz and Monika Jurkowski, Chicago

Donna was incredibly knowledgeable of Chicago and the nuances involved with the buying process in the area. I moved from out of town and was a first time buyer. Donna repeatedly went out of her way to make me feel comfortable throughout the process as well as make me feel comfortable with the city. Donna is one of those rare folks who is truly passionate about what she does. She also has the the knowledge and the experience to make buying a home as seamless as possible. I cannot recommend her enough.
