testimonial quote

We desperately needed more house, more yard, and a quieter street. But as busy parents with full-time jobs, we just didn’t see how we could take the time to make the move. Looking for a house, selling our current one and coordinating it all just seemed like too much. Linda simplified the process so that it was practically seamless. If only she could have packed us?

Wow! Linda Ivell provided my family with professional, market focused, while listening to our needs and desires. Selecting Linda as our realtor was a great decision. I would recommend her to everyone.

After getting to know Linda as a customer it was only natural that when we thought of her when we needed real estate advice. In order to be closer to our 3 business locations, we were going to have to sell our dream home. Linda helped us rethink our options. We bought a small condo near work and kept our lake house after all. Linda was amazing because she cared more about us than just making a larger sale.

testimonial quote

My home had been on the market for almost a year and not had a single offer. When I spoke with Linda she brought excitement and a fresh approach to marketing my home. Her photos were amazing. In fact, after seeing them I wondered if I could bear to sell my lovingly restored historic district home. But Linda found a buyer that loved it, too - and I was able to relocate, knowing it was in good hands.

We were moving to Florida so that our daughter could attend a nationally-recognized school for the performing arts. On a tight time frame with specific ideas of what our Florida home should be, Linda worked with the whole family to find the best place for us! She steered us through the inspections and closing process without a hitch.

Clint & Marilyn | Home Buyer
testimonial quote

Try explaining to a real estate person that you want a 12-car garage and most of them just look at you like you are crazy! But Linda listened and helped us realize our dream of living with our antique cars. We found a beautiful home with a great pool, lots of land, and room for not only our car collection but also our spare parts in a warm and friendly neighborhood.

Susan | Home Buyer
testimonial quote

Our vacation home had been on the market for six months with only one showing. And we could see why! It never showed up on any of the search engines. We listed with Linda for a higher sales price, and our place had an offer within a few days—full price all cash. We were thrilled. The combination of Linda’s dedication and Wagner’s technology worked for us
