Sold home in Bonita Springs, Naples, FL

From the very first conversation I had with Don concerning the sale of my home, I knew I had made the right choice. Both he and Nancy took over and made my house even more presentable to others. I was excited and thrilled with their suggestions. As a result, my home sold in 17 days. Don and Nancy Bordner are top notch in my book.

Purchased home on Vanderbilt Beach, Naples, FL

My wife and I couldn't have hoped for a better home buying experience. Coming from Long Island, NY to Florida, Donald and Nancy Bordner made finding a home, negotiating the price and closing the deal an absolute pleasure. The whole process was explained and made worry free by the constant  communication between us and Don. Any and all questions we had were answered quickly, completely and honestly. The amount of information Don provided about the homes we were going to look at was massive and made the comparison of properties a breeze and the decision to buy, very easy. We give Donald Bordner our highest recommendations and our sincerest thanks.

Bought a Single Family home in Estero, FL.

A big thank-you to Royal Shell real estate brokers Don and Nancy Bordner. Their guidance helped us retirees from New York find and buy a home that meets ALL of our requirements. We are so pleased! This husband-wife team listened carefully and assembled a list of prospective homes, both new builds  and resales, in communities that would be right for us. Their “homework” saved us a lot of running around. The Bordners’ knowledge of the SW Florida climate influenced our choice of house site and orientation. They also gave us good advice for maintaining the home, especially when we are away on vacation. Black mold—who knew? Ultimately, our experience with the Borders wasn’t just about the house. Their expertise, warmly shared advice, welcome packet, and vendor contacts have truly have made us feel at home in the region.

Bought a Single Family home in Bonita Springs, FL.

Thanks to Don, Nancy, and their team at Royal Shell Real Estate my parents will be moving into their forever home. After vacationing in SWFL for over 20 years, my parents were still indecisive on where to purchase for retirement. Going back and forth between new construction, resales, golf  communities, and condos vs. homes...Don and Nancy were able to narrow it down immediately for them. Their extensive knowledge in the history of the communities, specifically golf communities, was extremely valuable to my parents. They made sure any of our concerns were addressed and ensured the purchasing process ran smoothly! Thank you Don and Nancy!

How can I express what a superb job Don and Nancy Bordner did to help us find the home of our dreams? They do their homework! Diligent, organized and knowledgeable. Wonderful to work with! Listened to us, and showed us the spectrum of possibilities that enabled us to feel confident that we made the  optimal decision for us. We really felt that we had considered all possibilities so there was no buyers' regret; only grateful appreciation and satisfaction. They went beyond expectation throughout the entire process of buying a newly built home, including making sure the builder completed the punch list and dealing with the lenders. I really cannot say enough about this superb team. Thank you, thank you, Don and Nancy. All the very best, Karen & Terry

Bought a Single Family home in Naples, FL.

We were very fortunate that someone put us in touch with Don and Nancy. They have been in the Naples area for a long time and know the area well. They helped us pick the community and the lot where we built our home. Don gained our trust very early when we selected a lot. He knew we would not be  happy with the lot, once we saw how our completed house would butt up against the rear of the completed home on the adjacent corner lot. Although he could have closed a sale earlier, he discouraged us from proceeding and continued the process until we found a much better lot. He gave excellent advice during the design of the house, recommending and selecting an inspection firm, title lawyer, insurance agent, etc. There may brokers that are as good, but I don’t think you can find better.

Bought a Condo home in Estero, FL.

We purchased a beautiful new (to us) condo in Lighthouse Bay. Although we were familiar with Lighthouse Bay and the general floor plan of our unit, we actually made the offer sight unseen. Don and Nancy found the place, scoped it out, and handled all the details for us. We showed up the day before  closing for the walk through were actually surprised to see we had not been over sold and if anything the unit was better than expected. Don was also great at recommending finance and legal help. They negotiated a great deal for us and the process could not have gone smoother. Every detail was contentiously managed. I would highly recommend Don and Nancy to anyone, best friends included.

My family used Donald Bordner 20 years ago in Bonita Springs and we recently used him again a month ago. He's extremely knowledgeable and also knows many contractors to help aid in any little issues that need to be done to get your house sellable and in top condition. Donald and his wife work  around the clock and they leave no stone left unturned. look no further than Donald Bordner.

Mr. Bordner was fabulous. He went over and beyond. He provided my China resident brother-in-law a variety of properties to view. He provided all the information he (we) needed to purchase; inspect the home; negotiate the purchase; and close the deal. He sent us all the needed companies we needed to  contact for utilites, water etc. etc. He had many recommendations for home watch service; pool service; cleaning service etc. etc. He also helped us find a home we wanted to purchase but for a snag beyind his control were unable to close on the deal. But Mr.Bordner spent many hours and kept us informed and up to date minute by minute. He was available till late at night and all weekend. He educated us on the many needs and requirements for owning properties in Florida. I have purchased many houses in my life and have never met a harder working realtor/broker. I can't say enough nor recommend him any higher. I would give him 6 stars if possible.

We moved several times in multiple countries during our careers and we can honestly say we have never had real estate agents that we appreciated as much as Don and Nancy Bordner. We have passed their name on to many friends up north who have not yet retired but are thinking about buying in Florida  and every time we say something like…"you need to talk to Don and Nancy, you quite simply will not find agents that will give you a better home search experience". From our search, through our purchase, and after our purchase they have been an absolute joy to work with. If we decide to move again, without a doubt we will be calling Don and Nancy Bordner!!!

Don & Nancy were very easy to work on our venture looking for a second home in Florida. They told us about the pros and cons about different communities, about private golf clubs and bundled golf. They were very patient showing us many homes so we could narrow down our choice. They helped with  every aspect from choosing the home, buying the home and making sure we had all the information one needs to have a second home 1200 miles away from your primary residence. I would highly recommend Dan & Nancy Bordner as your realtor of choice when you need a realtor in this area of Florida.

I can honestly say that working with Donald and Nancy Bordner was the best experience with real estate people in my entire life. We have bought and sold a number of homes over the years, and were amazed by Don and Nancy's knowledge, follow up, attention to detail and commitment to superior customer  service. They sold one house for us then helped us purchase a new one this past fall. We cannot say enough about them as real estate agents/brokers and, equally importantly, as wonderful people. We strongly recommend and endorse Don and Nancy.

You won't find a hard working real estate team than Don and Nancy Bordner. For instance, they personally previewed over thirty houses for us so that we didn't have to waste time looking at unacceptable homes. Also, their after sale support is fantastic. Even today, I can e-mail Don and ask a a  question, whether its about my home or a nearby restaurant and I can count on a quick reply that day. Rest assured, they will always have your interests at heart and deliver on every commitment they make.

Don and Nancy Bordner are the Dream Team of buyers brokers! We have purchased two homes in Florida thanks to their wealth of knowledge of the real estate market. They are so knowledgable about Florida real estate there is no question they can't answer for their clients. Don and Nancy helped make  the process of building a new vacation home (twice) a pleasant experience by directing us to a great builder in the area. When an issue arose with our home a year after we moved in they were key in getting things fixed and resolved without us even asking them to help. We have referred them to multiple friends who have also been wowed by the professionalism and fabulous services Don and Nancy provide. We are happy to have many friends living in the area with us, thanks to Don and Nancy. If you're looking to purchase existing or new property, make Don and Nancy your Dream Team!

Having recently used the services of Donald & Nancy Bordner as our buyers brokers, we are happy to recommend they to you. It was such a positive experience for us to have these two quickly available to answer questions and to take care of all the annoying "little" details that arise as you move  toward closing.

We found them to be knowledgeable about the market as well as being able to navigate the ins and outs of the area real estate scene. Additionally, they are tireless workers in the quest to assist you in finding your new home and then handling all of the details involved in working for you to secure that home.

As an added bonus, both Donald and Nancy are friendly and pleasant to work with. Considering all that they offer and considering that their expertise comes at no cost to you, we are pleased to have successfully used the services and to recommend that you do also.

We have bought/sold several homes (7) during our marriage, two of them in Florida. Don and Nancy Bordner (our realtors for both) are the best; we say that with confidence based on our many and varied experiences in two states. The first house (1999) was new construction, and the Bordners were  incredibly helpful navigating the pitfalls of negotiating with designers, etc. The second house was a resale; once again, they were with us every step of the way in our quest to buy our dream house. The home-buying experience begins with the interview; it proceeds to home visitations and incredible data collection; it concludes with expert negotiations and moving in. Usually, this would be the end of the process, but this is not so with the Bordners. If and when you call them for recommendations for service personnel, you can be sure that they have a roster of respected and responsible providers for you. Not only have Don and Nancy been OUR realtors, but also through the 12+ years we have recommended them to four other couples who have purchased homes with their assistance. What more can we say? They are reliable, knowledgeable, responsive - AND they are a wonderful team!! Bravo!!

We met Don and Nancy through a mutual friend in 2006. We started looking at property at that time and they worked extremely hard to find us the exact property we were looking for .I had never heard of exit strategy but found it to be very important as the process evolved. Don and Nancy wanted us  to not only be happy with our purchase but to be able to move on if and when the time came. We ended up purchasing and could not be happier with our final decision. They are totally professional but very personal as well and we continue to socialize on occasion.

Bought a Condo home in Estero, FL.

We were referred to Don and Nancy Bordner by our realtor back in Indiana. She didn't know them but just found them through the internet. What a great referral! We were vacationing in SW Florida during the month of February and contacted Don and Nancy to show us a few condos in the Coconut Point  Fashion Mall. They were very informative over the internet prior to arrival and throughout our time purchasing our condo. Since we were away from home they helped with copies of everything, receiving and sending faxes for us. They daily kept us informed of progress and even attended the inspection and re-inspection to help us understand the process and what to expect. Following the purchase they presented us with a number of brochures with a summary of our condo and relative information about living in SW Florida. This included suggested services we might need, shopping and eating opportunities. Don and Nancy Bordner are very knowledgeable of the SW Florida communities and the housing market. I highly recommend them to anyone needing to purchase property in SW Florida and am sure they are equally capable of helping up in the New England area as well. GREAT TEAM!

Having a buyer's agent assures your best interests are their priority.Donald was introduced by a friend who had worked with him and been quite impressed with his amount of knowledge and personal attention to details. my sister and I met Don while on a short vacation in Estero, Fla, with our friend  and thought we'd take advantage of his availability, just to see what was on the market,just for fun. After two days with Don and his wife and business partner, Nancy each of us found the house of our dreams. The Bordners were with us every step of the way, clarifying issues, explaining things and referring us for financing. They communicated with the sellers and made arrangements for numerous services in addition to the usual as assessments through settlements. They were just a phone call away any time of the day or night,24/7 I never thought buying a home was that easy.

Bought a home in Naples Park, Naples, FL 34108.

Two years ago my wife and I were interested in purchasing a place in Naples. Living out of state with busy careers, we only had time to fly to Florida for the weekend to view properties. When we arrived we were most impressed with the manner in which Don and Nancy had prepared for our visit.   After listening to what we were looking for, they arranged for us to view numerous listings in the community. Don and Nancy also prepared a very thorough, comprehensive book with information on each property, as well as general information about the Naples area. We then toured the recommended sites and found a place that was perfect for our needs. Our experience with Don and Nancy was excellent. They were very professional, friendly and helpful, from our first meeting to the financing and closing. We would strongly recommend them to anyone considering buying a property in the Naples-Ft.

When we decided to look for a 2nd home in SW Florida, we were fortunate to have received a referral to work with Don and Nancy Bordner. After meeting with them to discuss our wants and needs, they were able to direct us to golf communities that were most likely to fit the lifestyle we were looking  for. We feel we saved time and money by working with people that were as knowledgeable about the area. They were there every step of the way from viewing/inspecting properties to negotiating to closing. We felt so comfortable working with them and feeling they understood what we wanted, that when a property came on the market after we had returned home from our initial "fact finding" trip, they inspected the property and recommended it for purchase. We bought it sight unseen based on their recommendation and have been very pleased. There were no surprises! We have purchased many properties in our hometown and have commented to many that we wish Don and Nancy would work with realtors in our area to show them exactly how they should do their job. They consistently go the extra mile. We have been pleased to recommend them to our friends who are also looking to purchase property in SW Florida.

Don and Nancy Bordner worked with me and my wife patiently over a year and a half to find our ideal home in Bonita Springs, Florida. He identified and focused on what we wanted and didn't waste our time showing properites that were nice but didn't meet our requirements. When we found the home we  wanted, Don's research, guidance and negotiating skills on making an offer saved us thousands. After the purchase, Don's e-mails keep us informed on the southwest Florida real estate market and local attractions. I highly recommend him.

Don and Nancy are the best in SW Florida. They are experienced, thorough and their follow through are tops. When I was looking for a home, they questioned me on my activities. They found a number of homes in various communities that fit my criteria. They spent a weekend showing me the homes  that I felt fit my criteria. After I found the home that I liked, they negotiated the price and I went into contract. They followed up after closing with two binders: one on photos of the inside and outside of the home and the other with a number of vendors from the area that I may require once I moved into the home. They are the best.

Bought a home in Sylvan Township, Chelsea, MI 48118.

I bought a condo in Bonita Springs, FL and Don was my buyer's agent. I live in Michigan, and was only going to be in Florida for a very limited time to look at properties. Don's communication skills were excellent and he knew exactly what I was looking for, even before we met in person.  When I got to Bonita Springs, he had a folder prepared with all the properties that matched my description, all with showing times arranged. We looked at so many properties in record time, thanks to his organization and knowledge of the area and the market. I found a condo that I really liked and the purchase process went through without a hitch. I didn't even have to fly to Florida for the closing! Don kept me updated throughout the process and would promptly contact me if any documents or information was needed. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to purchase property in Naples and the surrounding areas. Don't even waste your time talking to anyone else, because his expertise is unmatched!!

I was referred to the Bordner's by a part-time/friend realtor who felt they could help me on a foreclosed condo that I wished to look at. Well, they blew my socks off. They should give a R/E course to other realtors on how to represent buyers - their only representation. No conflict by being both a listing and selling agent!

Proof of the above, I used them again in another sale. This one was more difficult due to a cantankerous seller but their professionalism, patience and going the extra mile, made the purchase work.

When you buy a house, use a buyers broker. Bordner is that agent. His firm has only one focus. To find you the right home in the right neighborhood,at at a fair price. Never distracted by taking listings or servicing sellers, Boardner only works with buyers.

I've been in the financial  services business for over 40 years, and have moved and purchased homes over ten times. Boardner is the most professional realtor I have ever worked with. He takes you from a thorough interview to closing and beyond with the skill and will that will make your buying experience a positive experience. Beyond the closing, Boardner provides excellent referrals for services you will need in your new home.

Any agent can sell you a home, however, Bordner provides relationship value in a business that typically is transaction.
