Engel & Völkers Franchisee Helen Donaghy Installed as 2025 President of MIAAOR at 49th Annual Installation Banquet
MARCO ISLAND, Fla. - December 23, 2024 - Engel & Völkers Florida today announced that its franchisee, Helen Donaghy, License Partner of Engel & Völkers Marco Island, has been installed as the 2025 President of the Marco Island Area Association of REALTORS® (MIAAOR). The 49th annual installation banquet formalized the selection of MIAAOR’s leadership team of officers and directors for 2025.
“This is both an honor and a privilege,” said Donaghy. “As President of MIAAOR, I am committed to fostering growth, collaboration, and innovation within our real estate community while upholding the highest standards of professionalism that our members and clients expect.”
Donaghy’s appointment was first revealed in December 2023 during MIAAOR’s 48th annual installation of officers and directors. The event, held in advance of the new year, confirmed Donaghy’s role as President-Elect for 2024 while inducting the 2024 leadership team of the 600-member professional association. With the conclusion of Geoff Fahringer’s term as 2024 President, Donaghy now assumes leadership of the organization.
“Helen’s appointment as President of MIAAOR exemplifies the exceptional leadership and commitment to their local real estate community that our franchisees have,” said Peter Giese, CEO of Engel & Völkers Florida. “Several of our franchisees, including Helen, have served or are currently serving on their local boards. This reflects the ethos of leadership that defines every individual within Engel & Völkers, at every level and in every location. It’s this mindset that upholds the highest standards expected by our clients and our communities, ensuring we consistently deliver exceptional service.”
Donaghy’s leadership is underscored by her dedication to excellence and her extensive background in real estate, construction, and property management. A native of Ireland and a graduate of the College of Commerce in Dublin, she brings a global perspective to her role as a full-time Marco Island resident. As the owner of Engel & Völkers Marco Island, part of a global luxury real estate brand with a presence in over 30 countries, Donaghy supports her team of advisors in delivering the premium real estate services for which Engel & Völkers is internationally renowned.
In February 2024, Donaghy renewed her commitment to the Engel & Völkers brand by securing an additional 10-year term for the Marco Island franchise, which she originally established in 2008. This long-term dedication further solidifies her role as a leader within the local real estate market and her ongoing investment in the community.
