Background / Experience the Difference

Communication, Compassion & Commitment. A commitment to communication is one of my most important assets in working with clients and peers. Client service is my number one priority. I am known to have a compassionate ear, I listen, I reflect, and then I react appropriately. I do everything I can to prevent and eliminate any potential issues that may arise through attentive, thoughtful listening. My prior Human Resources experience and concern for people allow me to be a successful and respected Realtor®.

Market Knowledge

A native Californian, I have lived in Oakland, Castro Valley, San Leandro, and specifically the Tri-Valley area, including San Ramon and Pleasanton for the last 36 years. My extensive knowledge about schools, recreation, transportation, cultural activities, restaurants, and shopping helps my clients tremendously while purchasing or selling a home. Having purchased and sold several residences myself, I know the process from all aspects. All this, combined with my years of experience in real estate, means that I know property values intimately.

Relocation Resource

As a Certified Residential and Corporate Relocation Specialist with over 20 years of experience in listing and selling residential real estate in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties, Linda has assisted many families with local and long distance, professional moves to and from the East Bay Area. It’s important to note that a real estate relocation specialist is an experienced agent who is held to a higher standard and one who has undergone additional training and testing (annually).  In addition to the above, in order to be considered qualified to assist individuals and families with their relocation, these Realtors must also have a minimum number of years of real estate sales experience. Linda has been certified and approved by nearly every corporate relocation company throughout the country.

Linda has a clear understanding that selling or buying a home at the same time as relocating to a new area is never a simple matter.  Emotional decisions and the logistics of all of the necessary tasks must be done with sound business judgment, knowledge, care, compassion and honesty.

Designations

  • CERTIFIED RELOCATION SPECIALIST (CRS®)
  • GRADUATE REALTOR INSTITUTE (GRI®)
  • SHORT SALES & FORECLOSURE RESOURCE (SFR®)
  • CERTIFIED NEGOTIATIONS EXPERT (CNE)
  • SENIOR REAL ESTATE SPECIALIST (SRES®)

The Experience

Experience the difference, personal ties and relationships turn a property into a home. Warm, professional relationships are a hallmark of the Compass experience, and my clients often remark on the quality of my carefully chosen network of financial, legal, logistical and other specialists. The high-quality network that I have fostered extends beyond the Bay Area to an international audience of potential home buyers and sellers through the Leading Real Estate Companies of the World and the firm’s luxury home division known as Luxury Portfolio. My personal network combined with Compass’ (formerly Alain Pinel Realtors®) market tenure and brand identity gives my clients a distinct advantage when buying or selling a home. My relationships open the door for my clients to be at home anywhere. Where people, homes, opportunity, and a bit of imagination intersect, you’ll find me.

Areas Served

Selling in Pleasanton, Dublin, Livermore, San Ramon, Danville, Alamo, Castro Valley, Fremont, Discovery Bay, Brentwood and Surrounding Areas.
Linda is also connected with Agents in many of the cities in the Bay Area, as well as nationally, having met them through educational opportunities, classes, committees, conventions, and professional organizations. She is able to refer you to a qualified Realtor® anywhere in the United States.

Her incredible know...
