- The Vacation Home Specialists of the Disney Corridor
Team Donovan is Central Florida's leading brokerage for vacation homes, second homes and short-term rental investments — trusted by buyers and sellers from across the U.S. and around the world.
Who We Are
One team.
One standard.
Your best interests.
In traditional U.S. brokerages, every agent is an independent contractor competing against colleagues for commission. We believe that model creates infighting and erodes service. At Team Donovan, agents and staff work as a single team — every member works for every client, specialties are shared, and everyone has a stake in the result.
From Florida locals and out-of-state investors to owners in the UK, Canada, Brazil and beyond — our mix of European and American-born agents serves them all. Remote closings, international wires and absentee ownership aren't the exception here — they're our everyday business.
Global Reach, Local Expertise
Whether you're buying from across town or across an ocean, we explain every detail of a Florida purchase or sale in plain, straightforward terms.
Absentee-Owner Specialists
Most of our clients live hundreds or thousands of miles from their property. We've refined the hands-off transaction into an art form.
No Conflicts of Interest
No financial ties to management companies or developers. We do one thing — sell vacation homes — so our advice serves you alone.
