“An exceptionally positive experience selling our waterfront home on Bainbridge Island, from start to finish! Danny Varona and Matt Paige make a great team and they deliver on their commitments. They are knowledgeable, professional, detail-oriented, and they get things done. Honestly, the best experience we've ever had working with realtors, and we've moved numerous times all across the globe, so we know what quality means. These gentlemen are a credit to the Sotheby's name and reputation, and we recommend them without reservations to anyone interested in selling a premium waterfront home. They develop and execute against multi-pronged marketing plans that drive results and they are there to provide meaningful counsel every step of the way, in a collaborative and supportive way that was never pushy. And they are genuinely nice, thoughtful people who care. If you're thinking about buying or selling waterfront property around Bainbridge Island, your time would be well spent to invest a few minutes to chat with Danny and Matt. They are consummate professionals willing to go the extra mile to deliver great service.”

“Danny Varona was a godsend during our search for a family home as we prepare for our baby. He was patient, insightful, and incredibly supportive, guiding us to the perfect home. Danny excelled in negotiations, ensuring we got a fantastic deal. Highly recommend him for any family looking for their dream home!”

“Danny Varona doesn't let anything get by him ... and, so, protects his clients every step of the way. He knows the market, knows the process, knows the law. And he can give you referrals to great contractors! Totally recommend him.”

“Danny is a true professional. We have bought and sold many multi-million dollar properties and this was by far the easiest. He listens, pays attention, and very detail oriented. We Would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.”

“Danny Varona worked tirelessly to find us the right place to call home over a twelve month period. I have bought and sold countless homes over my lifetime and have never worked with someone as professional and client oriented as Danny. His perseverance, patience and advice were beyond measure. He is one of the most responsive people I have ever met, in and out of the real estate field. Perhaps what sets him apart most, is his genuine interest in the client’s needs. He is not, as many realtors are, commission driven. Based on this experience, I will work with Danny exclusively for all real estate needs and advice going forward..”

“It was a professional delight to work with Danny on the sale of my home in Wallingford. Danny made the sales process seamless. He and his team did a great deal of research during the process and provided insight as well into the move itself. Will work with him again and recommend him highly.”

Danny was really terrific to work with in a very stressful time. My houseboat sale was proceeding nicely and then Covid hit, throwing EVERYTHING up in the air (and causing my buyers to back out due to financial worries). Danny stuck with it, keeping interest up and folks coming through with his great marketing, while also keeping my nerves in check with check-ins and reassurance that we'd get there. Just closed with a new buyer yesterday, and I'm very very grateful for all the work he did to make it happen. Highly recommended!

What a Rockstar listing agent. Danny was extremely responsive and attentive to detail. It is really appreciative as the buyers agent to have open communication and full transparency from start to finish. My buyer is ecstatic about her purchase! Thanks Danny!

Danny was incredible to work with and deserves 10 stars!!! I fell in love with a houseboat online, contacted him, and almost immediately got a response and set up a tour. I was new to houseboats and he was willing to spend as much time as needed to answer my questions and share his knowledge. He took time out of his busy schedule to respond promptly to phone calls and walked me through every step of the purchase. Danny is warm, personable, and sincerely enjoys working with people in real estate. He made my dream of owning a houseboat come true within just 2 weeks after contacting him! Danny always goes the extra step and checked in with me periodically after my purchase, which I really appreciated! I enjoyed working with him immensely and plan to contact him in the future when I look for a condo. I definitely recommend Danny as your next real estate agent!!!

“A long overdue review and recommendation for Danny! He was our realtor for over a year, helping us through our decision making process of first trying to find a floating home to then deciding we wanted a “land home”. As first time home buyers, he walked us through it all, answering our many questions with ease. He is someone you can be honest and open with and ask as many dumb questions without feeling dumb - which is what you want as newbie buyers.

When we found our dream home he gave sound advice and was incredibly knowledgeable and calm through it all. We went back and forth with the previous owners a few times but in the end we got it! I can say without a doubt he was instrumental in making it happen and we wouldn’t have our dream home without him.

For any floating or land home, Danny is your guy.”

“We were interviewing listing agents when we were getting ready to sell our home in Sammamish. We ended up choosing Danny and Enrico as our team as we liked their professionalism and practical advice. During prep stage, we liked all the guidance and help we received for getting ready to go live on market. Throughout process, we liked our open and honest communication, their attention to details, depth and breadth of market research, professionalism to handle any market dynamics (we'd stronger than anticipated demand and liked how they handled it). At the end, we are happy with the outcome and would recommend them to anybody for listing their homes - and likely buying too given their handle on market.”

“Danny is an awesome agent! Starting with our first conversation with him. He listened to our needs, accommodated and coordinated things for us since we were out of town. Quick response and very knowledgeable. Definitely a high recommendation on his service. You can't go wrong with listing with Danny!”

— Linh

 

“Danny Varona was great to work with. Danny had a sound strategy for the sale of my home, he helped line up resources and contractors for me, and he basically did everything possible to make the sales process go well. I would definitely work with Danny again.”

I worked with Danny to buy my first floating home and everything worked out better than I could have imagined. Floating homes and houseboats in Seattle offer an unrivaled lifestyle, but buying or selling one requires specialized knowledge, expertise, and knowing the right people and processes. Danny is able to navigate the process of buying or selling one of these unique properties with ease. Danny is available when needed, is full of correct answers and good advice, and seems genuinely enthusiastic to make a deal happen that everyone will be happy with. Highly recommended.

To the Portage Bay community (…) we'd like to acknowledge our realtor, Danny Varona. He did a great job coordinating our transaction; his commitment to service, attention to detail, and virtually "real time" communications were very impressive. We recommend him highly for any real estate needs you might have.

— Jim & Hannah

Having been in Seattle for 3 weeks and knowing very little about the local market, Danny was patient and understanding while my wife and I selected our new home. I will work with Danny in the future and recommend him to anyone who asks.

If you are looking for a real estate agent who feels more like part of your family than someone you are doing business with, look no further than Danny Varona-Marin. From the moment I met Danny and he drove me around to properties in his awesome jeep, I knew he was the real estate agent for me. He invited me to the Duck Dodge, let me take family and friends and my two 120 pound Newfoundland dogs onto tiny houseboats, and was unbelievably patient with the endless questions and anxieties I had over about the real estate process during the 8-months I worked with him. Danny helped me make a long-time dream come true and I am forever grateful to him. If you are looking for a real estate agent for a houseboat, floating home, condo, house, or any property at all, trust me you will want to call Danny Varona-Marin!
