I was born and raised in Maine where I spent the first half of my life appreciating the change of seasons and the gorgeous rocky East Coast. Somewhere along the way the winters became less about enjoyment and more about surviving. I came to the Big Island of Hawai'i in 2005 with my husband and our daughter to celebrate ten years of marriage and renew our wedding vows and that was all it took. I knew I was home. Nine months later, we packed up our house and here we are. In 2007 my husband and I started our own property maintenance company and in 2010 I decided to accomplish a life long goal and become licensed as a Realtor. It is such a joy to be able to hand over the keys to a client and see the look on their face when the reality sets in. Helping people make their dreams become a reality is one of the most rewarding things I have experienced. When I am not working I am tending to one of the many rescue animals that have found a forever home with us.
My goal is to find you a home, not just sell you a house.
Linda with Hawaii Life was an excellent resource when we were purchasing our condo in Mauna Lani in 2021.
We started our search thinking we wanted to purchase land, sit on it for a few years and build.
Through Linda's guidance, we were shown a few condo properties which quickly showed us that it would be better to purchase something "move in ready" now versus waiting a few years to build.
We were homebuyers during the height of the home buying craziness and I lost count of all the condos we put offers in on and were out bid time and time again.
Through it all she remained patient, calm and assured us that "the right one is out there".
When the right one came along, she was our biggest ally in working with the seller to close the deal. The closing process was surprisingly simple (despite us being 5,000 miles away) but Linda was there every step of the way to answer questions or give us a contact for a problem we needed to solve.
We cannot imagine a better real estate partner than Linda!
Linda did an amazing job helping is secure our dream spot on the Big Island. She was super responsive, always on time, and always had a smile on her face and a great attitude towards her work. It was a tricky negotiation to get the condo that we wanted, but Linda stuck with us and helped to get this deal done. She was also very helpful with recommendations for contractors, management companies, and places to shop for our remodel. I would highly recommend Linda to anyone looking for a property on the Big Island.
