Testimonials

There’s nothing like buying and selling your very first home! There is just something very emotional about it. My husband and I never imagined how we would feel, parting ways with our rental property, which was our very first home together and which we had held and took pride in for 23 years. When we finally decided it was time to put it on the market, we knew we had to work with someone who would understand our love for our sweet little house. It had to be Linda Pond, a very special agent, who took the time to patiently coach us through the entire process of selling and she did it with grace, kindness, wisdom, and respect. Her knowledge of the real estate business and the current market conditions primed us for an excellent position and we ended up with multiple offers, well-above asking price within 5 days of listing her for sale.

Her knowledge of the real estate business and the current market conditions primed us for an excellent position and we ended up with multiple offers, well-above asking price within 5 days of listing her for sale. Though it was still bittersweet to bid farewell to our home, we could not be more grateful to Linda for helping us sell our home and select the new owners, a lovely couple who reminded us very much of ourselves, as first time home buyers 24 years ago. I’d like to say that was the icing on the cake… but being able to purchase two more rentals as a result of selling our one little San Jose House has proved to us what an outstanding Realtor Linda Pond is and we will forever be thankful to her for all her guidance, expertise, patience, and care.

My husband and I have become successful real estate investors thanks to the guidance of Linda Pond. We inherited my childhood home from my parents, which I had a deep emotional attachment to. Unfortunately, we had to sell the home and the proceeds went into the bank. My parents had worked hard and any decision on what to do with the proceeds weighed heavily on me, as I did not want to make a mistake. The proceeds sat idle for a few years because of my fear of investing and potentially losing my parent's investment. We reached out to Linda for guidance because of her extensive knowledge of real estate investing and transactions and her many years of experience and success in the market. During our consultation with her, she went over the different options on how to turn those idle proceeds into a successful investment.

We reached out to Linda for guidance because of her extensive knowledge of real estate investing and transactions and her many years of experience and success in the market. During our consultation with her, she went over the different options on how to turn those idle proceeds into a successful investment. She encouraged us to overcome our fear of investing and we left our consultation more confident and knowledgeable on how to invest our money and make great financial decisions. With Linda's guidance, we purchased a rental property that has been so successful and profitable for us. That investment grew and we recently were able to acquire another property, moving us up to the next level home in real estate investing. We are grateful to Linda for giving us the guidance, confidence, and knowledge we needed to be successful real estate investors.

It had been four years since we were looking for a country home. Through this search, we came across Linda, who exactly understood what we were looking for. In a short period of a few months, with her help, we got our dream home. In the entire house-hunting process, the only thing we had to do was to select the property. All the before and after steps were taken care of by Linda: understanding our priorities for the property, finding and presenting us with the right properties to look at, educating us about the property areas in great detail, connecting with the seller’s agent, creating rapport with them, finding all the hidden cues between what is not said, presenting with all the history, geography and neighborhood of the property, suggesting to bid with the right price to do all the paperwork accurately. Linda took care of everything for us. Thank you for finding us our Dream House…
