I am a commercial agent with Uriah Real Estate so I make a lot of calls to other commercial agents regarding spaces that they have available. Donna Havel is one of those rare professionals in the industry who always picks up her phone. If my call happens to go to voicemail, she usually gives me a call back soon after. She is very cordial and provides good insight on her properties. – Kevin Chu
