My wife and I are a young couple and were new home buyers looking for a home in the Pinellas County market. We were referred to Linda Mann and couldn't be happier with the referral. Linda clearly has a lot of experience in real estate and knows the market incredibly well. She knows individual neighborhoods and how they would fit for what my wife and I were looking for. She did extensive background work on the houses we looked at which helped uncover a lot of interesting issues that helped us with our decision process. Overall she goes above and beyond what is expected for a real estate agent and knowing we are new to the process, was our guardian throughout the complex process. She was incredibly accommodating to me and my wife's hectic schedules for phone calls and to view houses. One of the great things about Linda is she was willing to point out some concerns in the houses we were looking at to ensure we were making fully informed decisions and not just settling. Other agents would have been happy to make the sell quickly and move on. Anyone looking to purchase or sell a home in the Tampa Bay area should contact Linda to represent them. We would not hesitate to use her again or recommend her to our friends! She is excellent!
