Long & Foster Real Estate has announced Donna Higgs has become the managing broker of its Ellicott City, Maryland sales office. Higgs most recently served as a manager in the office of a competing brokerage.  

“Donna has a track record of successful leadership and recruiting,” said Cindy Ariosa, Long & Foster’s senior vice president and regional manager of the Baltimore, Western Maryland and Coastal Regions. “She has an agent-first mentality, so she is a perfect fit for Long & Foster.”

Higgs has over 20 years of management experience in sales strategy and business development. She has a background in sales, marketing, and management across the real estate, construction, and wellness industries. Her people-first philosophy combined with a vast knowledge of business strategy, team leadership, and client experience gives her a unique understanding of what it takes to create a culture that is based on building and cultivating relationships.

“Giving agents the tools and support they need to build and continue to grow their book of business combined with collaboration and innovation are the cornerstones of success,” said Higgs. “I look forward to recruiting, training and developing the Ellicott City agents to consistently exceed sales goals and provide exceptional customer service.”
