I began working in real estate in 1990, originally as an attorney for ten years. This opportunity helped me acquire both a depth and range of experience and my representations included:
-
Working on the legal team that helped a national oil company sell all its properties.
-
The seller of a car dealership that included personal property and real estate.
-
Negotiating the joint venture rights for a recycling plant.
-
100+ mortgagors in their negotiations with several large lenders.
-
The owner of a 68-story office building in its lease enforcements.
-
A variety of construction and residential land development projects.
After moving to San Francisco in 2000, I have enjoyed brokering full-time and I specialize in real estate investments: properties that help my clients build wealth.
- They receive a stream of income; or they can create something that is worth more than what they paid for it. It can help them diversify their portfolios or hedge again against inflation. It goes beyond appreciation that is supposed to come with the passage of time.
- Sometimes it also means doing an analysis that leads to cutting one’s losses or crystallizing a profit to invest in another opportunity.
Everyone thinks real estate is simple. In reality, understanding market conditions is complicated.
San Francisco’s myriad of micro neighborhoods and its strict building and rent ordinances mean that one property can sell for one price while another just a few blocks away may sell for almost 30% less.
It is critical to get accurate information to make sound decisions that result in a successful investment, whether it is a purchase, sale or the hard choice of investing more money in a property.
Knowledge is power and I share that knowledge with my clients. I strive to use my analytical and strategic experience to help them successfully market, negotiate and close transactions.
I am dedicated to giving you sound, no nonsense advice.

Being a licensed agent myself since 1972, I have worked with many agents. Linda stands out.
Linda prepared and presented me with an aggressive marketing plan for my property. She executed each step of the plan as promised and obtained multiple offers within a few days of hitting the market. Once we were in contract she monitored the contract, escrow, and participants closely ensuring that all parties to the contract performed as promised.
Linda is a tireless and committed real estate professional. Unlike many agents, she has a keen interest in, and a broad knowledge of real estate and the real estate market. I foresee a long and mutually beneficial relationship." - John H.
**********
"Linda is willing to dig into [an investment] and comprehend complex subjects and relationships quickly and to use that knowledge in strategically and tactically important ways for her clients." - Chuck E.
**********
"With Linda, what you see is what you get. I felt confident in her advice. She wasn't just pushing for her interest. I was up in the air about what I wanted to do. She showed me what was possible. She made it easy for me." - Vilma N.
**********
“She is pro-active. That is the thing that I like most about working with Linda. She gives me the answers to questions before I ask them. She knows the system and she knows the market. When she is focused on you as a client, you get her very best.” - Amy C.
**********
"Frequently I find that Real Estate professionals add little value to the complicated process of purchasing or selling property. Linda offered a complete reversal of this perspective. She helped us to get organized, analyze our goals and explore creative options we had not considered. She offered a depth of knowledge from an analytical perspective that was extremely helpful and unique. She really took the time to get to know our personal situation and help us find exactly what we were looking for. I would definitely recommend working with Linda." - Alex H.

“My clients retained you to sell an apartment building in San Francisco that had been the subject of extensive litigation between my clients and two other parties.
You had to deal with two different sets of sellers who did not trust each other and did not like each other. This was a very difficult situation and put you in the middle of numerous disputes between the sellers regarding the terms of the sale, the condition of the property, repairs required to be made, and the costs involved.
In each case you were able to resolve these difficulties with aplomb. Your marketing efforts, your advice on pricing, and your work in pressing the reluctant lender to move forward, were all excellent. The end result was that the property sold for the full asking price.
I found you to be extremely accessible and highly professional. I would strongly recommend you to anyone who is in need of a real estate agent.” - John Boessenecker, Attorney-at-Law, Estate Litigation Specialist
