★★★★★
Linda my condo in DC, and I am immensely grateful for her expertise. I have worked with Linda for years, and could not imagine trusting anyone more. I live out of the area, and it put my mind at ease to know that Linda was there to handle the details (and she really does pay attention to every detail). She is highly knowledgeable about all aspects of the real estate market as well as the art of buyer/seller relationships and negotiations. She guided the process efficiently and calmly through every challenge. Linda always gave me honest advice and focused on understanding my needs so that she could help me make the best decisions. We have developed such a strong relationship that she is able to anticipate my questions and concerns before I even need to ask! Moreover, Linda is a genuinely caring, generous person and a joy to work with. Her passion for serving her clients is evident in the quality of everything she does. Linda is entirely worthy of any homeowner’s trust and confidence. - Christina

★★★★★
Linda is an extremely hard worker with an extensive knowledge of the market. When she say she has seen everything on the market in an area to prep for a meeting, she literally means she has personally been to each to scout them. Her detailed work not only applied to the itself but also the process and paperwork of getting a home to closing efficiently and with as few hiccups as possible. Linda has been great to work with. - Josh

★★★★★

"★★★★★
Linda was referred to us by her manager. Linda. Is. Everything. At first I wasn't even on the calls with her because I was so burned out. But over time with her consistent, clear communication, excellent game plan, creative solutions, and clear care for her clients, I couldn't help but be inspired. My favorite thing about Linda is that she truly cared. She empathized with us about our situation while maintaining 100% professionalism (an art in and of itself). She clearly works from a place of moral conviction and she bent over backwards to make sure we felt safe. For instance, she knew communications were a pain point for us so she noted that we preferred calls to text or emails and called regularly to give us updates, even when there wasn't anything major to report. I really appreciated that approach. Perhaps most impressively, she learned the VA loan assumption process on the fly. It was complicated, cumbersome, and no one knew what they were doing, least of all the company who held the loan. Linda submitted the full loan package before they had even asked for it which massively sped up the timeline. That was impressive in and of itself. Then, she came up with creative marketing tactics to attract potential buyers, for instance putting together a pricing sheet of what buyers would save by assuming the loan. This was an awesome idea and, I should note, it worked! The assumptions process with NewRez was a complete black box, and made more complicated by the fact that Caliber (the original holder of our loan) was bought by NewRez mid-process. I was so thankful that Linda drew on her own personal relationships with folks at Caliber to pressure them to move the process forward and to give us insight on the process going on behind the curtain. Who does that!??! It provided us SUCH peace of mind and really expedited the process. I could go on talking about Linda... I think most agents can sell your home but the test is what they do when the situation is complex. Linda performed beyond my wildest hopes in a really tough spot. I'll continue to be grateful to her for that for a very long time. Linda is kind, hard working, creative, and just an all-around pleasure. - Skye & Tony

Linda was remarkable! She sold my home, and at a very good price, within 3 months of the house being put up for sale. She was a pleasure to work with, and her knowledge of the local market and how to make the house most saleable within it was truly impressive. She had come highly recommended by my neighbors, and she exceeded even the high expectations that they had left me with. So I can now say that I, too, highly recommend her! - John C.

★★★★★
There is not a pedestal high enough for Linda Norman! After almost 18 years, my house had needed some serious help before it was ready to go on the market. Linda, calmly and efficiently, identified each and every problem/issue and set out with her team to address and fix each and every issue. As soon as anything needed to be addressed, whether it was fixing up the house, assisting with obtaining a mortgage for my new place, Linda was there every step of the way. Her quiet, calm and extremely efficient demeanor allowed a quick sale with multiple contracts. She “held my hand” every step of the way from settlement of the home I was selling to the new home that I bought. I cannot thank Linda (and her entire team!) enough! - Judy C.

★★★★★
Linda Norman is an amazing real estate agent. We arrived from Italy, after 25 years overseas and we not really sure what we wanted but knew we wanted to live in Chevy Chase Bethesda. Linda spent time getting to know our preferences and gently explained how the real estate market works in our area. We were not quite prepared for the rapid turn around and the need to make fast decisions so we looked at a lot of houses and condos. Linda was patient and said, 'don't worry, you will know it is the right home for you when you walk in the door." She was right. We love our new home! In fact, I recommended Linda to our friends based in Cairo, who worked with Linda on-line and found their perfect home as well. - Brenda P.

★★★★★
Linda went above and beyond the call of duty in helping us choose, purchase, and move into our new home while we were living abroad. She was helpful in every way possible and advocated for us expertly. Most of all even after we had bought the home (but had not yet moved in) she was instrumental in making sure that our new investment was well cared for. I can't thank her enough for her professional, kind, and responsive service. She is truly fantastic! - Taly L.

★★★★★
Linda Norman has made two international moves in four years a stress free and enjoyable experience. Four years ago my family had one day to visit, choose and bid on a house in a very specific location. She found us the perfect house and negotiated on our behalf while we were half a world away for everything we wanted and didn’t even know we wanted as first time homebuyers. She continued to be our “go to” person for everything house related and ensured that we were well settled and happy long after we moved into the house. She was such a tough negotiator that the person who sold us the house employed her to sell his house – he wanted Linda on his side of the negotiation table. We didn’t hesitate to contact Linda when we were ready to rent our home and she came armed with all the financial details and comparables in the neighborhood, managing to pinpoint the perfect week to rent so we had just the right amount of excitement and interest in the house to rent it quickly and with very little effort on our part. Linda is a top professional and now a trusted friend and I would recommend her services with a full heart. She takes all the stress and uncertainty out of a major life transition. We are lucky to have her on our side. - D.R. and T.L.
