"Linda Van Drent completely met all my expectations and needs to sell my house. Her knowledge of all steps in the process, including setting an attractive list price, resulted in multiple initial offers and an even higher accepted final offer that was substantially over the list price. My home sold within days with a trouble free closing. She was able to offer excellent suggestions on preparing my home for sale that revealed her current knowledge of the market. As an established realtor she has a large list of trusted contacts and this facilitated the process for me as I had little time to devote to the entire process. Linda was thoroughly professional, punctual and reliable but also supportive and understanding through a time of stress. I always felt confident that she was working to obtain the best possible outcome. I can totally recommend her."

"Linda Van Drent spent four years as our agent patiently readying us for the day when our Marin home would sell. During that time, she showed us in excess of 60 properties, getting to know our tastes and grooming us for the BIG moment. When the happy day came that our old house sold, Linda was there with the perfect set of homes to show us. We placed a "ridiculous" offer on one of them, totally not expecting an acceptance. Linda saw all details to completion without a glitch, and we now live in a lovely home, which exceeds any of our wildest dreams."

Bob and Diane Wyatt
"We owned a very unusual property in Orinda, extremely aesthetic and unique. Our home had been on the market prior to a major remodel and for this listing we were extremely selective in our choice of our realtor and office. We were confident the timing to list was right and we were desirous of the best representation available.

We had a prolonged listing with many prospects and one extremely low offer. Knowing we faced this challenge of selling our property demanded we, as homeowners and Linda as our agent keep apprised of the many complex factors operating in the market. We had many discussions about the marketing, timing of open houses, outreach and pricing. On all occasions there was dialogue; it was constructive and well considered, and the decisions reached were sound, and well reasoned.

Over the tenure of the listing we were extremely fortunate to work with Linda Van Drent. She maintained the highest standards on all levels. Communications, assessment, follow through and support was excellent. Her attention to details and her accessibility were consistent and unwavering. We were able to develop a close relationship of trust and respect, which characterized our entire experience. She is a consummate professional.

We want to express our appreciation to your office and especially to Linda for her exceptional professional service. We will happily recommend her services to friends, family and colleagues as needed."
