This review is NOT due to being a family member, personal friend or paid for this rating. IT IS the ABSOLUTE TRUTH and I would testify to her character, work ethic and the consistent, dependable commitment Linda displays in her everyday life with clients, corresponding agents, other working relationships with other professionals in her “Field of Dreams”.

I cannot say enough about Linda. She has made this experience a very enjoyable adventure. I don't even know where to start. She meets every need you might have, sometimes even before you know you have the need. She adds a personal touch that I have never experienced before from a realtor, and I have worked with several. Her 40 years of experience in the Lewes/Rehoboth realty market is invaluable. She is so incredibly knowledgeable about every detail of the construction of these homes. Besides doing everything she could to find me the home that would make me happiest, she provided some real emotional support when I encountered obstacles in the sale of my previous home and the purchase of one here. I also want to acknowledge Bridget, who holds down the fort back at the office on the computer while Linda is out showing their clients properties with her special personal touch. I love the home they finally found for me. It would not have happened without Linda's genuine desire to find me the best place possible. I have shared so much of my positive experience with Linda Bova with my friends that we call her St. Linda! Ask Linda. She will know or if she doesn't she will send you to the best person who does. To sum up, this woman loves her work and as such she has an exemplary knowledge of the business. I sincerely doubt you could find anyone who knows this business better than she, and who has her deep integrity as well. I have the utmost respect and admiration for Linda. It is your good fortune if you get to work with her.

I had such a great experience working with Joe to purchase my property in Lewes. He was always available to discuss concerns and listen to my needs. He went out of his way to find a property that was perfect for me before it even went to market by utilizing his connections. He knew what I was looking for and actively searched for prospective listings. We had a few hiccups before closing, and as always, Joe was available to discuss the issues and help resolve them. I am excited to move on to the next phase and build the house of my dreams. Now that I have the property of my dreams.

Joe was recommended to us by friends who purchased in Lewes in March of 2025; that alone demonstrates that his experience and professionalism resonates with his clients Buying and selling a house is indeed a stressful time, and Joe knew how to put our anxieties at ease on both fronts. Even after we purchased, he still had time and patience for our questions, even though the transaction was completed. He is very responsive, even allowing for calls that most people would consider off hour. While we were talking, Joe was very patient with all of our newbie questions and extremely knowledgeable about the area. He represents the area well because he is very engaged and truly loves living here…always trying to connect people with similar interests…that is how Joe goes above and beyond for his clients.
