Making a Difference, One Family at a Time

Satisfied clients: Knowledge, experience, integrity and the ability to get results are important qualities to look for in your real estate broker. Above all, you should look for satisfied clients. Whenever one asks, this is how Donnita Hills clients describe her.

Natalie is an exceptional realtor. Her professionalism and commitment to find that perfect home is second to none. She promptly answers any questions and provides frequent updates on homes that are on the market. She makes the home buying process seem like a simple task and not a hassle. I would highly recommend her to anyone searching for a home.

- Lucas Canaan, 2012

I was referred to Natalie by a co-worker when I was telling him I was thinking of looking at purchasing a home.  He said call my Realtor Natalie Stout and I am glad I did.   The first day we looked at houses I found the perfect one for me!  We found out that the house I wanted had three offers on it, with helpful advice from Natalie on negotiating I was the lucky buyer and she kept us out of a bidding war.   From contract to closing she kept me well informed and stayed on top of every detail.  I would not hesitate to refer Natalie to any one I meet who needs a Realtor.

- Scott Forgie, 2012

This is the 3rd home sold for me and the second one to this last one was located for me. Donnita will tell you what you need to do to move your home. My homes were all sold from one week to one month after sitting down with Donnita Hill to make a listing. We would definitely recommend her to anyone needing to sell a home

- Bobby and Notie Moser, 2012

I wanted to thank you for the exceptional job you did in finding my new home for me. Your skills and expertise were truly in evidence when you were able to locate for my review 2 homes which were not yet on the market! And I was also greatly helped by your ability to make referrals in skill areas which I needed—fencing, roofing, windows, etc.—this was most important for someone not from the area.

 I really appreciate all you did to bring this sale to a successful and happy conclusion for all. I will have no reservations in referring others to you.

- Kym Farmer, 2012

My husband and I would like to thank Natalie Stout for all of the work she put into selling our home.  She kept us updated throughout the process and was very helpful with every question or concern we had.  She was a pleasure to work with and is very knowledgeable of the real estate market.  I would recommend her to anyone who needs a real estate agent.

- Nathan & Kim Fox, 2012

A family member of mine recommended I call Natalie Stout at Hill Realty to sell my mother’s home.  I live out of state and needed someone to sell her home in a timely manner and keep me updated on all activity and Natalie did just that.  She listed my house and one week later had a signed accepted contract on the home.  The house CLOSED one week after that.  Natalie kept me informed every step of the way and I can’t thank her enough for getting my mother’s house SOLD so quickly.  I am so glad I called Natalie Stout with Hill Realty to sell my house.

- Mary Ellen Lee, 2012

Words cannot explain how thankful we are that we were blessed to have the opportunity to work with Natalie Stout and the Donnita Hill team. Through Natalie’s hard work we were able to buy our first house. She was so much fun to work with and was so helpful with any questions that we had no matter what time of the day it was. If we ever decide to sell or buy again our first stop will be the Hill Realty office! Again thanks so much for all that you have done for me and my family and may this year be the best you have ever had!

- Brandon & Tiffany Coffee, 2012

We can’t thank you enough for hanging in there, and selling our house during this difficult market time.  The Hill Team exceeded all expectations in caring and professionalism.  You set the standard for real estate sales in the Upper Cumberland area!

- James & Karen Henderson, 2012

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the Hill Realty Team for all of their help in the sale of our home. From the beginning, they took the time and effort to keep us informed during each step of the process.

The administrative staff was very polite and courteous every time we would call and their follow-up was always in a timely manner. We would (and will) recommend The Hill Realty Team.

- Ed & Sally McKibbon, 2012

I want to thank you, Donnita and your entire staff for an excellent job well done in the selling of my home. I realize it took a great deal of time to sell it, but in these conditions, I didn’t expect anything better. Before you listed it, Donnita gave me suggestions on what would help in the sale of the home and to make the home look better. I appreciate that and followed her instructions to a “tee”. Throughout the time you were trying to sell my home, you continually kept me up-to-date on information of each and every showing, whether someone from your team had the showing, or another realtor. You were not the first real estate company to try and sell my home and there was no comparison between the two of you. It was like night and day! After the first few weeks, I saw how your team was handling the sale of my home and I just sat back and was very comfortable letting you take the reins. I figured, if you can’t sell my home…….no one can! If I still lived in Cookeville and was looking for the “BEST” real estate company to sell my home, it would be a mistake NOT to go to you! Thanks again for everything!

- Rick L. Chapel, 2012

I just wanted to thank you for working so hard on showing my house and keeping me updated. I had asked around before listing my home, who sold the most houses, and everyone I asked said Donnita Hill. It paid off for me because you sold my house.

- Betty Long, 2012

I met Natalie at an Open House one Sunday, she was friendly, informative, and emailed me the information I requested on the property quickly. Natalie showed us property when it was convenient for us and was knowledgeable about the housing market. When I found the house I thought was the best investment Natalie stayed with me through the whole process from contract to closing, keeping me well informed of all the details. We closed two weeks early on the property and never had the slightest problem. I would recommend Natalie to anyone looking for a house or property.

- Tim Robbins, 2012

I cannot thank Natalie enough for her time, patience, and expertise in helping me buy a home. I appreciate her willingness to spend many hours showing me houses, but especially her ability to keep me on track and find exactly the right place for me. Natalie is the best!

- Nelda Pack, 2012

When we made the decision to sell our home, we knew Donnita Hill mostly by reputation. It was important that this relationship work on many levels and we were not disappointed. On the contrary, we were extremely pleased!

Our process, one that we expected to be a marathon, turned into a sprint. There was a contract merely 16 days after the sign was put in the front yard. We thought we had a pretty great house, but never dreamed of a sale this quickly, in this economy and during the holiday season! When the sale happens this fast it can be “dizzying” and “head spinning”.

The Hill Realty team organized, arranged, scheduled and handled the entire transaction flawlessly. All of our needs and expectations were exceeded, allowing us to enjoy the holiday with our family and concentrate on our upcoming move. For this we are extremely grateful and find it very easy to recommend this highly successful, authentic and dedicated team.

- Mike & Karen Sutton, 2012

After years of Buying, Selling, and Flipping homes I know there is only one name I trust to handle all of my real Estate needs: Hill Realty, Donnita is just not a Realtor she is a friend, she understands that a home is where the heart is and that her passion for what she does for a buyer or a seller is what keeps us coming back. Her commitment to customer service and to her community is what sets her above all the rest. Thanks Donnita for what you have done for me and all of our Family over the years.

- Melissa Knowles, 2012

My wife and I were very impressed and pleased with the service that Hill Realty provided for us! Ron Williams was our representing agent for purchasing a property in the Cookeville area; upon the first time I contacted him I received nothing less than caring and constant assistance. My wife and I drove from the east side of Virginia with the time frame of about ten hours to view properties and Ron and Donnita had a very well comprised list of properties that met our needs. By the time we left town we were already in contract for one of the properties they recommended. Until the day of closing we kept running into problem after problem and Ron and the team at Hill Realty gave nothing less than 110% effort to help resolve every single problem. Ron and the team at Hill Realty are the most efficient and time productive real estate agents I have ever worked with, and if I ever need anything else they will be the first agents I contact!

- Matthew & Christine Belcher, 2011

We could not have asked for a better agent than Natalie Stout. We ran into a few unexpected “speed bumps” on our home-buying journey, but Natalie was right there with us every step of the way. Her reassurance, honesty, knowledge, and overall positive attitude made all the difference in our buying experience. We would not hesitate to recommend her to other potential home buyers or sellers.

- Chris & Julie Feazell, 2011

Are you looking for a realtor to sell your home who is excited, enthusiastic and loves being in the real estate business? Look no further than Hill Realty. Donnita Hill and the team she has put together do an outstanding job. We called on a holiday and Donnita met with us within two hours, which was a pleasant surprise and relief since we are from out of town. We signed a contract with her because of her knowledge and excitement about being able to sell our house. The sign was in the yard the following day, and advertising began immediately on the web and in print. We received an offer 23 days later and closed nine weeks after listing! Hill Realty has the ability and expertise to get your property sold in a timely manner. Our house was a property in the $50,000 to $100,000 category, but that did not matter. We always felt that we were just as important a client as someone with a million dollar listing. Becky was wonderful to work with us on all aspects of the closing process. Donnita and every member of her team are friendly, helpful, caring and hardworking. We say, thank you very much!

- Duane & Sharon Farmer, 2011

Natalie Stout with Hill Realty was the best Real Estate agent my husband and I could have chosen to sell our home. She works so hard and made sure our home was well advertised and shown often. By holding an open house early on, being persistent with the interested buyer, and lots of hard work, Natalie sold our home within two months of it being listed. She is also helping us buy our new home and has been very patient and hardworking as we make our decision. I fully recommend Natalie to anyone buying or selling a home. She does not stop until the job is done!

- Will & Valerie White, 2011

I have known Natalie for about 6 – 7 years now and knew when I was moving back to Cookeville that I would call her to find me a house. She probably showed us 20 houses before we finally found the one we loved. I would highly recommend Natalie to anyone moving to the Cookeville area and I will definitely call her if we move again. She is professional, honest, hard-working, reliable, and just fun to be around!

- Jackie Dunn, 2011

Recently, I had the pleasure of having the Donnita Hill team assist me with real estate transactions, both as a buyer’s and a seller’s agent. Donnita came to me highly recommended, and now I know why! She was always available anytime I needed her advice, regardless of the day of the week or hour of the day. She was courteous, professional, and I always felt good about having her on my side. As a result, I was able to quickly sell my home, and get a great deal on my new home! Her expertise and knowledge helped me to take care of all of my home buying and selling needs with peace of mind and at a maximum value, even in today’s uncertain economic climate and home market. I would highly recommend her team to anyone looking to make their next move.

- John Copeland, 2011

We were the first time home seller. With an open mind, we used a website to search for the best realtor in Cookeville. The results came back quickly and Donnita Hill Team was clearly on the very top. Our experience with the Donnita Hill Team verified that their rank is just a simple reflection of the fact.
They put out the sign on the first day we called them; the virtual tour was set up right away; they let us know the results as soon as the open house was finished; we received follow-up for every activity for our house. This team is extremely efficient and professional, they were, are, and will continue to be the very top realtor team in the region. Thanks, the Donnita Hill Team.

- Jie Cui and Xin Wang, 2011

Our family is so grateful for Donnita Hill and the entire team at Hill Realty. We have had many up and downs in the housing market while searching for the perfect home to suit our growing family. With the help of Donnita, we are finally getting settled into our new home and couldn’t be happier with the way things have worked out. Not only was Donnita Hill our real estate agent over the past few years of buying and selling homes, but over time has became a trusted friend as well. Thank you again to the team at Hill Realty.

- Matt & Kaci Garrett, 2011

Our experience with Natalie Stout as our agent was incredible. She was professional,knoweledgeable, and extremely helpful in making the process easy. We could not have had a better closing and transition. In addition she extended herself to go beyond the scope as a realtor. She is an outstanding person and we were extremely lucky and pleased to have her help us with the purchase of our farm.

- Chris & Gene Hagaman, 2011

We just want to thank Natalie Stout for all she has done for us through this whole process to find the house of our dreams. We have looked for “the house” for a total of 5 years and after a long process with a lot of disappointment we finally found the house we fell in love with the moment we seen it and it lived up to our dreams and more! Natalie was there for us when we needed her. She answered all the question we had it didn’t matter what time of day or night it was. We had realtors in the past that wouldn’t listen to anything we were wanting in a house but Natalie listened to everything we said and she did her best to find the ones we would like. She was there every step of the way with the good, the bad, and the ugly! Even with the ones that fell through and the ones that were out bid by someone else, Natalie kept our spirits high and she told us she would have us in a house that we would love by the end of summer and she did! Natalie is an amazing realtor in our book! We will definitely recommend her to anyone that needs a realtor. Thanks again for everything she done for us!

- Matt & Lindsey McDaniel, 2011

We were so fortunate to have Natalie as our realtor throughout the selling process. Even in a downturned market she was able to keep our property at the forefront and make a successful sale. From signing the listing contract to closing the sale at the attorney’s office, Natalie made it all seem effortless. We would most definitely recommend her to others and thank her for what she did.

- David & Sherry Prowse, 2011

We want to thank Donnita Hill and her team for the fantastic job they did on helping us sell our home. Like many others in today’s economy we wanted to downsize our home to fit our current lifestyle. We have a son in college and had more house then we needed. With the current market we expected about 6 months to sell our home. We contacted Donnita, after talking to several people that have sold and purchased recently, her name came up from that people that were most satisfied. We contacted her and had a meeting. She asked our needs and expectations. Form that meeting we chose a fair price that would generate the most attention. The house was sold in about 45 days when the average turn around on homes in this price range is about 200 days.

We thought we knew a lot about selling a home but things change, Donnita reminded us to factor in a few costs when selling a home that in the end saved us quite a bit of money. She informed us that everyone purchasing homes these days want a home warranty and require home inspections. No matter how nice your home is, a home inspector is being paid to find problems. If you have not factored this in, your negotiations after the inspection will be a problem. With Donnita telling us this beforehand we were prepared for this and made out quite well. There is a reason she has been so successful in her 34+ years in the business.

After the sale, the attention you get from her Closing Assistant in her office is exceptional also. There are always questions and she stays on top of the details. From beginning to end the process has been a pleasure and we definitely will use Donnita and her team for any real estate transactions in the future.

- Bill & Shelly VanWagner, 2011

We bought our home through Hill Realty and throughout this process; both my husband and I are pleased with your services. We would go through your office again for any real estate transactions on either to sell or buy.

I would just like to say thank you for all your help and support. Also, thank you for standing by us even though we made you go through a lot of concerns.

- Raul & Lourdes Sepulveda, 2011

I just wanted to say a big “Thank You” to your team members. I appreciate everyone’s hard work in getting the house sold. You guys went “the extra mile” so thanks to everyone who worked so hard to get our house sold.

- David & Joyce Hammett, 2011

Donnita Hill Realty Voted Number 1 Realtor in Cookeville for a Reason…She SOLD our home in 5 Days! She handled what could have been a difficult negotiation on our new home and made it stress free and a very smooth transaction. A pleasure to do business with the whole Hill Realty Team. Simply the best!

- Richard & Marie Sullivan, 2011

How do I begin to tell you about our experience with the Donnita Hill Realty Team? We have known Donnita for almost 30 years. She helped us find our first house in Cookeville 29 years ago. She was warm, professional, caring, and a wonderful person to work with back then and she remains so today. We followed Donnita’s career all the years we lived in Cookeville and she was always one of the most successful realtors if not THE most successful. She is a dedicated to her business and her customers. My husband and I have lived all over the United States and have used many realtors, but none live up to the standard that Donnita established all those many years ago. So when we decided we had to move back to Tennessee to retire, of course, Donnita was the first one we thought of. We sent her an e-mail and she remembered us immediately, and had properties for us to look at right away. To make a long story short, we found a property on-line and bought it NEVER having set foot on the property. We could do this because we knew we could trust Donnita and her team’s ability and professionalism. We also worked with Ron and especially with Becky. Both of them are wonderful people. Becky has been our life saver. Whenever I needed information, Becky was the one to go to. Her bright, bubbly personality and depth of knowledge of the area was a great help and relief to us. Everyone went above and beyond the call of duty to help with our move and that meant so much to us. We consider Donnita and her team a part of our extended family. I can without reservation recommend The Donnita Hill Team to anyone.

- Wayne & Sherrie Fulghum, 2011

We have nothing but great things to say about Natalie Stout of Hill Realty. We have Sold 2 houses and bought 2 homes within the last year with her as our guide. As we watch other houses sit on the market indefinitely, we feel confident that when listing with Natalie, ours will move! And it always does. Natalie is one of the hardest working people we know, but she always makes time for any questions we have and goes out of her way to keep us well informed. She is extremely knowledgeable of all aspects of real estate, and is FUN to work with as well. She’s made all our transactions enjoyable and “painless,” and we wouldn’t hesitate for a second to call her up and use her again! Along the way, we have come to consider her more than our realtor…our friend. We highly recommend Hill Realty and are so thankful for all they have done for our family.

- David & Brooke Matthews, 2011

If you are looking for an outstanding Realtor that is willing to work hard for you, look no farther. Ms. Natalie Stout is your solution. She has a great attitude, extremely professional, hard working, and a joy to be around. We have had a wonderful experience working with Natalie. Her extensive knowledge of Real Estate proved to be exceptionally helpful in this soft market. We would like to thank Natalie and the Donnita Hill Team for helping our house sell and for being such a pleasure to work with.

- Ben & Jordan Coonce, 2011

I had a great experience when Donnita Hill listed our house. She presented not one but two contracts within a few weeks of listing and almost at full price. The first time in only six days and a second, which we accepted. The total process of closing was smooth, with no complications. Donnita’s team helped me with suggestions to make the house attractive and suggested a selling price to move this house during these tough economic times. Her Team followed closely thru the end. I felt at ease with no pressures.

- David Castro, 2011

In an economy where homes are sitting on the market for 30% or more longer than normal, it is truly a rare occurrence to find a realtor that goes above and beyond to insure your home sales quickly and at a fair price. My wife and I listed our home with the Donnita Hill team because of the outstanding reputation. After meeting with Donnita on a Thursday our home was listed and advertised in just about every place one could possibly think of. Two days later, on a Saturday, we had a contract. Enough cannot be said for how Donnita’s team uses technology and keeps their clients in the loop. They are as comfortable of an asset for first time buyers/sellers as they are for seasoned investors. We will and have been recommending the Donnita Hill Team to everyone we know.

- Ben and Karen Burchfield, 2011

I want to give a big Thank You to Donnita and her team for all the work they have done to sell my mother’s house. My mother experienced a life changing event, one that required her to move closer to me in Austin, Texas. As I do not live in Cookeville, and I was not very familiar with the Cookeville area, finding Donnita and her team was most certainly a gift from heaven.
The house required a bit of work before it could be listed, and Donnita was able to recommend some wonderful contractors. She worked with us to develop the list of all that needed to be done, and helped ensure that the work progressed as quickly as possible. Once the work was completed, no time was lost in holding that first open house. Donnita and her team worked hard to find the right buyer, and to work with my mother and I from a distance through every step of the process.
We have now just closed on the sale of the house, and all I can say is Thank You, Thank You, Thank You for Everything!

- Betsy Stockdale, 2011

Well where to start, Donnita Hill and her team did a fantastic job selling my home. I had a history with Donnita Hill when she sold a property for a company I worked for. It was listed with another local Real Estate company and was rarely shown. Donnita Hill got it SOLD. I had recently lost my job after 10 years and knew I wanted to make a change. That’s when I decided that I wanted to sell my home. I decided at around midnight to pull up Hill Realty’s Website, on the site there is a section with Testimonials. I started reading, and the more I read I know I would be using Donnita as my Realtor. I emailed her and the next day she called me and we scheduled a time to meet. Donnita did her research and comps of the area. She loved my home and said she would get it sold. She told me what we should list it for and went back to her team and that’s when things started to happen. That afternoon I was emailed all the things and sites my home was on. We started to have showings three days later. In the three weeks I was under contract with an acceptable offer. Donnita and her team, are organized, they communicate well, pleasant, knowledgeable, and most of all “real people.” I feel like I have made a great group of friends in this process. In closing, selling your home is a very personal and stressful time, your emotions are on edge, and Donnita was supportive and comforting through the process. I believe if you are buying or selling you don’t need to look but to one team and that is: the Donnita Hill Team at Hill Realty.

- Dale Long, 2011

The purpose of this letter is to testify to our experience selling our residential property in Cookeville, which closed Friday, May 13th. We chose Natalie Stout to represent us for a variety of reasons. Our experience with Natalie has confirmed that we made an exceptional choice in a Realtor when we chose her to represent us.

Our experience dealing the Natalie has been extraordinary. Not only is she very personable, she exudes a level of professionalism and diligence that quite frankly, we did not expect from any agent in the current difficult real estate environment. As a former Realtor in the Upper Cumberland Association area, I have certain minimum expectations that an agent must meet in order to earn my business. Natalie not only met my expectations, she exceeded them.

In closing, we could not possibly be more satisfied with our experience dealing with Natalie Stout. We highly recommend to anyone considering selling or buying real estate in the Upper Cumberlands that they seriously consider asking Natalie to represent their interests.

- Ken & Cindy Young, 2011

Ron,

I just want to take a minute of your time to say thank you. All I have ever heard from everyone is, “buying a house is a nightmare!” Hill Realty has proved that to be the wrong expression. From the minute Alma and I first talked to you, our experience with buying our first house has been awesome!!!!!!!!

First off, we were first time buyers, which means numerous questions. And don’t forget, I did all of this, except the closing, from Kuwait via email! This has been the most pleasurable experience of any purchase we have EVER made. Every time I emailed, I got a prompt response from Leslie and Amanda. Every time I called, no delay on answering the phone. Every question we asked, we got prompt and professional answer. Anytime we needed anything, The Donnita Hill Team was there. When I first talked to you, I told you I would give you 100% from my end and I expected the same from you but you’ve given us 120%. I will highly recommend your company, Hill Realty to everyone I meet.

Again, thank you so much!!!

Semper Fidelis,

- James and Alma Cross, 2011

As 1st time sellers it has been a wonderful experience working with the Donnita Hill Team. Our house went on the market March 18, 2011 and it showed almost daily seems like. This team had our house sold less than 3 weeks. This is just incredible. I would suggest anyone wanting to sell to consider The Donnita Hill Team. They keep you informed every step of the way. We just want to say A BIG THANK YOU for all that you have done for us!!!

- Kelly & Sharon Byers, 2011

Thank you for the excellent job your team provided. The courtesy, professionalism and positive attitude portrayed by your team made the experience much better. I would like to give thanks to Natalie Stout and the rest of the Team for all the hard work.

- Wayne and Vicky Sullivan, 2011

I would like to thank Hill Realty for their work on selling our home. They were professional, knowledgeable and motivated. Our home sold in TWENTY days. Donnita Hill’s enthusiastic and positive attitude is to be commended. Thanks Hill Realty!

- Tom and Loretta Collier, 2011

I just want to say Thank You for everything. You’ve made selling my house a painless and efficient process. I remember Donnita’s last words…”Don’t worry; we will sell it for ya!” Truer words were never spoken. You have succeeded where others have failed! Your professionalism from start to finish was great. Getting feedback within hours of a showing was a huge plus, and not just occasionally, but every single time. Phone calls and emails were always promptly returned. Again, I can’t say enough about you and everyone in the office. Should I or others I know have any real estate needs in the future, I will be referring them with no hesitation to your office!

- Roger Denis, 2011

I confirm that I have known of Donnita Hill for a number of years. In the past 45 days we signed a contract with her company Hill Realty, to sell our house, I have gotten to know Donnita quite well.

When we met one evening to list our home, Donnita explained everything to us, and displayed a positive attitude about getting our house sold. Less than 2 weeks later my wife came home and told me that Donnita had sold our house. This made my wife very happy and I was in the state of shock that it only took less than 2 weeks, after having it on the market for a year with another company.

At all times I have found Donnita and her staff to be dependable, reliable, hardworking, honest, peace-loving, courteous and very helpful.

- Frank and Helen Dlabal, 2010

Having no luck at all on my own in this very slow property market, I looked for someone who has the ability, assets, and reputation to put my commercial property out where people could appreciate the value of it and take advantage of the opportunities this market currently provides.
While I had been trying for months, Donnita Hill came by my property and just a few minutes she had everything she needed to get things rolling. After just a few days of listing my property with Hill Realty, I had an offer. Less than two weeks later, I was holding a check and shaking hands with the buyer.

I have never had an easier, less stressful, faster, or more professional real estate experience in my life. I would highly recommend Donnita Hill and her very professional staff to any and all of my friends and family.

Thank you Hill Realty for the unique and wonderful service that you provided to me.

- John Brady, 2010

My wife and I recently sold a home we owned near Cookeville Tennessee. We live in Dayton Ohio and needed a Realtor in the Cookeville area with a great reputation for customer service and hard work. As we spoke with individuals around the Cookeville area, the name of “Hill Realty” kept coming up.
We signed on with Hill Realty for the sale of our property and we could not have been happier with the professionalism, hard work and great customer service.

Our home sold much quicker than we had anticipated at a price we were extremely happy with.

If there was one thing which stood out with our dealings with Hill Realty, it was their dedication to keeping us constantly informed of every detail and going beyond our expectations in dealing with even the smallest issues.

A great “thumbs up” to Hill Realty – we consider them the region’s leader in Real Estate.

- Mike and Roxanna Laycox, 2010

Donnita Hill makes a house your home. From start to finish she stayed with us and helped us find the exact home that truly met all our needs.

- Clay and Karla Robertson, 2010

Relocating from another state is difficult, but the team at Hill Realty worked hard for us to find a house that we were excited to move to. They maintained regular contact through emails and calls, and when we were able to visit Donnita had a strong sense of what we were looking for. She guided us through negotiating a contract and was so knowledgeable, we never doubted her guidance. Even after closing the whole team made us feel at home in a new town by making referrals from hair salons to plumbers. We plan to stay put at our new address for a few decades, but we would recommend Hill Realty to our closest friends and family.

- Scott and Rebecca Harrison, 2010

Whenever I moved to Cookeville a few years ago, I purchased a home that was listed with The Donnita Hill Team at Hill Realty. Another agent represented me at the time but I became very impressed with the devotion and attention to detail that The Hill Team was putting forth in this sale. While the home I purchased was priced in the $50,000 range, the continuous attention to all closing details on my home was incredible. I returned to California this past year and even in a tough real estate market as we faced this year, The Donnita Hill Team got the job done in less than 2 weeks. Now, as I see it, that is a true dedicated team who work really hard to achieve the results that sellers need.

- Carole Dye, 2010

Very few people look forward to listing their house in a down economy, but Donnita and her team made it a very positive experience for us. They truly go above and beyone the call of duty to sell your house. They are responsive, pleasant, honest but optimistic, and knowledgeable. I was constantly amazed by the little details they used to market our house, and they exceeded my expectations during the entire process.

- Jeff and Tracey Duncan, 2010

I cannot tell you how much we have enjoyed working with Hill Realty…although it has not been “work” at all. The Donnita Hill Team has made the selling process a breeze, in what is considered a “slow market”. They sold our lovely home within 5 weeks. Very impressive! we will surely refer anyone we know to the Donnita Hill Team that will need an “Excellent” and “Professional” Realtor.

When I made the decision to list my home several realty companies suggested to me by friends. After reviewing all my options I made the decision to go with Hill Realty. I heard and read several comments on the professionalism and quality of the agency. I met with Donnita and she instantly sold me by her big smile and positive attitude. I had talked to several other realtors and they all said was “well the housing market is very poor so let’s price the house low”. Donnita attitude was always upbeat and positive. She was never down about the housing market. It is obvious Donnita teaches the importance of high customer satisfaction to her team. The entire team treated me with respect every step of the way. Attitude is the key to success and I believe that is what sold my house. I will use Hill Realty next time I buy or sell a house.
Thank you for a job well done.

We sold our home and purchased one from the Donnita Hill Team and they were great. We were so happy when our home sold in such a short amount of time. We would recommend them to any of our friends or family.

I originally listed my home with a competing agent and received what I considered very poor input for marketing the property and very inconsistent feedback when the home was shown. After the contract expired, without even a single offer, I list my home with Donnita Hill Realty. I knew when I spoke with Donnita that I was in better hands. We discussed a marketing plan and she executed the plan without flaw. Also, I received immediate feedback every time the home was shown. In short order, we had an offer and sold the property. I highly recommend Donnita and her team to anyone who may be considering the sale of their home or other property.

It is my pleasure to let you know just how impressed we are with The Donnita Hill Team during the selling and buying of our real estate property. Every person with whom we encountered in the office was professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and an overall joy to be around. Our real estate process flowed easily thanks to the Donnita Hill Team
When we searched for a new home, the Hill Team was amply prepared with listings, respectful and patient during our search. We cannot say enough good things about the team.

Although we have bought and sold property before, this experience with The Donnita Hill Team has by far been the best. We would recommend Donnita Hill and her team to anyone and everyone, and so we shall.
