Linda brings a strong background in customer service, marketing and real estate knowledge to her team.  Having worked over 25 years in the airline industry, Linda's customer service ability was certainly put to the test, but her care and attitude towards her customers has never faltered.  Linda also spent many years in the advertising industry and helped to grow many large national accounts.  She's been able to take the experience and knowledge she gained in New York City and apply it towards her real estate career here on the Emerald Coast.  Linda's many "out of the box" strategies toward the selling of real estate come from her knowledge of aggressive promotion in the marketing industry.  She knows that marketing, not high pressure sales, is what sells a house.  Linda takes the time with her clients to find out exactly what their wants and needs are in order to find the perfect home for them.  And it goes the same for listings - learning as much about the sellers and their motivation for selling as possible and treating the home as if it were her own for sale.   With Linda helping you buy or sell a property, she becomes part of your family - she makes you her top priority no matter how big or small the transaction.  Linda holds the e-PRO designation, and excels in using the internet as an invaluable tool in her marketing programs.   She is also a committee chairman for the Women's Council of Realtors, an Ambassador with the Destin Chamber of Commerce and a member of the South Walton County Chamber of Commerce. 

 Linda has recently hired a full time assistant named Katy Bird. You many recognize Katy as the white umbrella cockatoo who accompanies Linda to open houses, REALTOR® tours and first time client meetings.  "Katy Bird is a great icebreaker when meeting new clients.  They are so amazed by her beauty and gentleness that we become friends before we start talking real estate.  Then the rest is easy.   And Katy doesn't complain about working overtime!"  Linda came into the field of real estate during the height of the market in 2003.  However, the cooling of the market did not deter Linda from her chosen field.  She's stayed long after many REALTORS have given up.
