My Story
Donovan Sienko
I spent 30+ years in the beer industry, working for Miller Brewing Co, Leinenkugel’s, Mike’s Hard Lemonade and Breakthru Beverage. I have owned a fine dining-waterfront restaurant, an insurance and financial services agency, a brewery, creating the world’s first Hard Seltzer, and obtained my real estate license, working as a realtor since 2015 in Minnesota. All the while honing my sales and listening skills and creating and implementing systems and processes that strive for smooth real estate transactions.
In 2024 in moved to The Villages, Florida. I had previously visited a few times and was just amazed at the opportunity and growth in and around The Villages. Since then, I’ve been learning the ins and outs of The Villages, bonds, CDD’s, MLS, VLS, FAR BAR and “as-is” contracts just to name a few nuances of Florida real estate and past my license exam becoming a Realtor.
I have noticed the most success when asking open-ended questions that identify the wants and needs of my clients and then I help them achieve their goals. I like having systems and processes in place that can be easily explained and executed to take the anxiety and unknown out of the equation. I believe in negotiating from a position of strength whenever possible, having patience, and always having clear communication, being in sync with my clients. This is a formula that my clients have told me they appreciate.
