Donna is "hands down" the best realtor I have ever known and worked with!

I have known Donna Garrison since the early 1990's when my family began renting condos on Lake Travis from her.  Since that time Donna has helped my family purchase and subsequently sell two condos at Whitecliff.  She has been a delight to know and work with for some twenty plus years. During that time there had not been one single issue or challenge which she has not favorably resolved.  She always  had our best interest at heart.  Knowledgeable, professional, diligent, hardworking and totally honest are just a few of the words I would use to describe Donna.  I am in the banking business and as such have the opportunity to work with numerous realtors on a regular basis.  I can tell you that Donna is "hands down" the best realtor I have ever known and worked with.  It is my pleasure to recommend Donna Garrison without reservation!

This new venture has been a dream for both Donna and Curtis for many years now, the construction is now finished ! Grand opening July 15 - August 15, 2016!

On January 11, 2016 construction began on the first phase build out of 111 enclosed and covered Boat & RV storage units. The new facility features extra wide concrete drives, covered and enclosed storage units all with concrete floors. The enclosed units have insulated ceilings to keep your boat cooler in the summer, with 12 foot high doors on the 35 foot units and 14 foot high doors on the 40 foot deep units. These will handle wake board boats with tall towers and larger cruisers that need high overhead clearance. The 50 foot covered RV spaces are large enough to handle the largest  class C motor homes and the buildings are oriented so that the RV's will always be out of the sun.

The entire facility has night sky friendly LED lighting, 20 amp power in all units with optional 30 amp power for the RV spaces. Security is our highest priority, we have 24 hour video surveillance of the entire site, on site owners, a highly secured keypad entry gate, security fencing, security lighting, and our SSL secure website keeps your personal information safe.

Donna was the obvious Realtor to call!

Donna Garrison did an outstanding job of selling our Lake Travis waterfront property in a very tough market. For over twenty years, Donna was our neighbor and she always impressed us with her knowledge of current Real Estate issues in the area. When we made the decision to sell, Donna was the obvious Realtor to call. The market on Lake Travis for lakefront properties was extremely competitive and our particular situation was made even more difficult by some unusual Title and flood plain issues. Donna skillfully researched the issues and used her knowledge of the community to resolve those potential barriers. I truly doubt that another Realtor would have been so effective in our situation. Even in the difficult market and with the unique property challenges, we sold our property within 90 days of listing it with Donna. She did an amazing job!

I worked in commercial real estate for almost 30 years, so I appreciate a great Broker when I work with one. The majority of Brokers I encountered never worked as hard as you do. I was always amazed at those who expected the client to do half of the work, or hoped that the selling Broker would cover for them. You are really good at what you do. Hang in there until the market comes back around and all of your work will pay off in a big way.

"Thank You for Being Our Realtor & Friend"

Dear Donna,

Just wanted to say thank for everything. You have played such a big part in helping us get started in our new life together. You made it possible to find the perfect home for us. House hunting can be a trying experience but your patience, encouragement, laughter & sense of humor made it a fun process.

The sale of my house was smooth & easy thanks to you.

We are loving the longhorn cutting board. Lots of bar-b-queuing going on at the new Quinn Ranch!

And to top it off, you were our hero during the fire evacuation! Having a comfortable place for all our company to stay during a stressful situation was a real blessing. God was definitely working through you that day.

Thank you for being our realtor, our personal Red Cross Worker, and most of all our friend!

 

Love you always,

Tommy & Michelle
