"Linnette and her team went above and beyond to help my wife and I sell our home in Alameda. They prepared and executed a flawless game plan from staging to landscaping to timing to pricing to negotiation. We always felt empowered to make informed decisions but ultimately trusted her team's recommendation and work to get results. In the end, we got great visibility, 14 offers, and were incredibly pleased with the top offer. We will absolutely work with Linnette and her team again."

"We recently sold our Saranap (Walnut Creek) home with Linnette Edwards as our listing agent. She was amazing! She closely consulted with us on how to best get our home ready for sale, including decisions on where to make the smartest investments. We significantly exceeded our target sale price, which of course made us super happy campers. Super impressive and talented! We highly recommend her."

"Linnette and her amazing team recently helped us sell our Emeryville condo for a record-breaking price for the area. They are very professional while also being very warm and accommodating. Selling a home can be stressful, but Linnette's consulting was invaluable, and her team made the whole process very easy and efficient."

Michelle C.

"Linnette was a dream to work with. Knowledgeable, proactive, and patient. She went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and conversant with real estate terminology and cadence. She always had our best interest in mind - gently pushing us to think critically and thoughtfully about what we truly wanted in a home. Linnette was always highly responsive to our texts and emails and always provided her expert opinion and wisdom. She was our guiding light and we would have been absolutely lost without her! Two very enthusiastic thumbs up!"
