Prior to even entertaining the thought of selling our family home in Encinitas, Linda used to send us monthly updates as to real estate values and activity in our area. Almost every home that came on the market had her name rider on it. When we relocated to Mammoth Lakes and put renters into our home she continued to send us updates. When a divorce necessitated the sale of our Encinitas home we contacted Linda at once. She was the only real estate person that we knew in our area. After getting the tenants out, the house was quite a wreck. We live 400 miles away and have full time jobs. Linda took care of everything. She got us multiple bids for all of the contractors (electrical, painting, plumbing, staging, pest, etc.). Once we selected a contractor, she supervised him diligently and sent by-weekly updates. Once we had offers she handled the negotiations and steered us to the best and most qualified Buyer. She tenaciously oversaw the loan process even though she did not represent the Buyers. Once we listed with Linda there was nothing to do; she handled it all. The entire process from listing, to staging, to marketing, to open houses, to receiving offers, to negotiations, to the close of escrow went so smoothly and took less than 60 days. Bear in mind, by San Diego standards this was not an expensive home. I am a real estate agent! I have been a full time agent in Mammoth Lakes for over 36 years. I thought that my personal level of service was excellent as compared to my contemporaries. Linda set the bar so high in terms of client service, that I am stepping my service up a notch. I would recommend Linda to anyone without hesitation and this comes from a long term, top producing, Mammoth Lakes real estate agent...Janice Gray read more

My wife and I recommend Linda Moore as the most professional person with whom we have worked - not just in real estate but in any financial and real estate business we have done. I have never seen anyone work harder for us. I was amazed at her knowledge, her real estate expertise, her response time and her ability to remove the fears that anyone might have as their home is being sold, as well as her respect, instant response to questions we had about our home and the best way to market it. Although Linda Moore is the best agent for sales and purchase in her area, my wife and I felt as if we were the only people with whom she was working. We always communicated with her. That is the highest compliment I can give any professional in any business. It is a great secret for success. Linda Moore took detailed care of us by returning calls, texts, and emails within minutes always - and if not we knew why. I like working with top professionals. We were fortunate enough in this case to get the best of the best. I say unconditionally for anyone who wants their home sold (or purchased, from what I hear from others) you have no choice other than Linda Moore. I rarely have ever stated my respect for a professional person in this way! It is deserved. Any home seller can stop looking if you meet with her, I highly advise you give Linda Moore a call in your search for the right agent for selling (or buying) your home. A friend recommended Linda to us! I know once you have your initial meeting you will find you have made the right choice. It is my/our pleasure to give this report on Linda Moore and Coldwell Banker. read more

The legal complexities and deferred maintenance issues of the probate property I was selling in Del Mar were daunting, but Linda Moore handled everything with professionalism and care. Her expertise and diligence made a significant difference. For over a year, while waiting to be appointed probate administrator (which gave me authority to sell the property), Linda followed up with me after each court date and provided invaluable support and guidance on pre-work that could be done while waiting for the courts. She provided referrals for a thorough due diligence process before listing the property. As a result, I was able to obtain recommended inspections, repair estimates, county permit record updates, preliminary title searches, and information about estate sale preparation. Once I was finally appointed probate administrator, I was able to conduct an estate sale, do a complete cleanout and list the house on MLS within a 2-month period while traveling back and forth from the east coast. Once listed, the strategic pricing and pre-work that had already been done allowed buyers to make quick, informed decisions and cash offers that reflected the property's condition. Linda's expert advice on positioning and negotiating ultimately resulted in achieving a successful sale. We had 10 cash offers within a week and accepted an offer over asking price with no contingencies. We closed escrow in 7 days. Handling the probate sale of a unique property with significant deferred maintenance requires a strategic and informed approach. I highly recommend Linda for anyone dealing with such unique real estate challenges. read more

When it came time to sell my Encinitas home, there was only one person to call: Linda Moore. I recognized Linda for decades of hard work in the neighborhood, and as the #1 Realtor in Encinitas. As a graphic designer, I admired Linda's marketing expertise, tenacious work ethic, and excellent reputation. My first hand experience with Linda proved to be beyond my expectations. As usual, Linda over-delivered including an exceptional, creative "coming soon campaign" including a professional house video, gorgeous photos, and terrific marketing endeavors. Linda worked hard from the very beginning, giving great advice as to what things should be repaired or enhanced that were affordable, yet were effective in return for the money. Linda obtained very reasonable bids for painting, staging, landscape, carpet and other items. I was able to move out and leave the rest to Linda. She organized and oversaw each contractor from start to finish. The end result was better than I could have imagined! 11 offers, resulting in the highest sale in the neighborhood, almost 10 percent over asking price! Linda's is a tactful, caring, effective negotiator. It didn't stop there. During the escrow process, Linda handled and oversaw a very challenging repair issue, and kept the deal intact, closing on time (all cash, two week close!) If you are thinking of buying or selling a home, Linda Moore is THE ONE TO CALL. Wayne Hunt read more

Linda is in a realtor class of her own! I heard another realtor state, "I just ask myself what would Linda do....when getting a house show ready." We were looking to move to San Diego from Florida, and after reading Linda's reviews online, I knew I had found our realtor! She contacted me immediately and we worked together almost a year while we were still in Florida. She always had us in mind. We were very particular in what and where we wanted to live and have STRICT guidelines of what we were looking for. She never gave up on us. She found us a slice of heaven to rent in Encinitas..when we had almost given up moving here ..until we saw what what she found us to rent. It was a dream come true. Then we moved and continued to look for property to buy. She was wonderful to work with (so knowledgeable and thorough). She finally succeeded in talking us into looking at an area we had not yet entertained...and found our dream home!! It is perfect! She worked so hard on our behalf and held our hand through everything that needed to get done to close (inspections,etc). Now that we have closed...I miss her:-) I have never met a realtor like her...bulldog, hard worker, extremely knowledgeable & friend. read more

Linda Moore has earned my respect, appreciation, and highest recommendation. Living outside of the area and needing to sell a house that was part of a trust, I was concerned about how complicated and arduous the process might be. I felt I needed a seasoned professional - someone who knew the community well, had broad real estate experience, an impressive sales record, and a reputation for getting things done quickly and efficiently. Linda was all of those and much more. Linda guided me through each step of the way - professional, responsive to my questions and concerns, organized - always prepared and steps ahead in getting things done to streamline my experience and prevent any delays or bumps along the way. She provided her upfront and honest opinions re: issues that required my decision-making and supported me with her educated insights when it came to making a choice from the many excellent offers we received. Relying upon Linda, her expertise, and her resources made for an outcome far beyond my expectations - virtually stress free, exceptionally quick, and with a sale thousands above the asking price. And she's a lovely person, too. Choosing Linda was the best decision I could have made. read more

Linda Moore is amazing. When we were in the market for a new home, we knew we wanted to be purposeful about the realtor we worked with: someone who was friendly, deeply experienced and willing to negotiate hard for us. We interviewed several realtors before deciding to work with Linda. Or, as we dubbed her, Linda "The Tiger" Moore -- she fought for us every step of the way. Linda has decades of experience and is knowledgeable about every aspect of the real estate process. She educated us as we looked at homes and she had vast amounts of knowledge about every neighborhood we looked at -- when the homes were originally constructed, how the houses there held up over time, what other clients liked or disliked about the area. It was incredible. Her availability and attention constantly reassured us. When we finally found the home that was right for us, Linda went straight to the negotiating table and fought -- hard! -- for us. She won us that home right out from under another potential buyer. We'll be forever grateful for all that she did for us. You simply don't find folks like Linda every day. We are so very glad that we did. And you will be too. read more

I forgot to mention in my previous review of Linda that we did not use her for the sale of our home. We went with Redfin enticed by their 1.5% commission fee. We quickly were able to see the vast difference in service, professionalism, and expertise since we were working in tandem on the sale and purchase of our home. Linda by far out performed what our Redfin realtor was doing on the other end. She advocated for us ensuring we were aware of all possibilities, hooked us up with reputable inspectors specializing in problems she identified in the home we were purchasing, and gave us amazing advice in negotiating with the seller to make all parties happy. We wish we could have used Linda as our realtor in the sale of our home but she did not represent that geographic area. She did refer us to someone very reputable within Coldwell Banker and we chose to go with Redfin. The sale of our home may have gone much smoother had we stuck to Linda's referral. Redfin agents service many clients and from our experience were not able to provide the same level of service as Linda. read more

Linda was the Seller's realtor when we bought our home several years ago. So when we decided to sell and needed a realtor, we turned to her for help because she was so knowledgable and helpful way back when. We had absolutely no idea what the value of our home was or how to price it. Custom-built and architect-designed, this unique modern home with 180 degree views of Olivenhain, Rancho Santa Fe, and points east, had no houses in the neighborhood to compare it to. But Linda, with her knowledge of the Encinitas market, and specifically with Crest Drive, went to work and did an in-depth analysis. She arrived at a selling price range that seemed reasonable and made sense, given the one-of-a kind nature of our home. Then she went to work doing superb marketing with Coldwell-Banker. Most importantly, throughout the process she truly listened to us, responded to our questions and concerns, and was always available. Once our home was on the market, Linda found happy buyers within days. Thank you Linda! read more

My husband and I recently used Linda Moore as our buying and selling agent and throughout the past few months she has been there every step of the way ! Her experience as a realtor and her strong negotiation skills are commendable. She walked us through every step of the process and she has always answered every call or email no matter what time of day or night it was. Her professionalism, mentorship, knowledge, honesty, and hard work ethic are much respected and appreciated. Linda always made us feel like we were her only client despite the fact that she was closing on several properties at the same time. After looking back at the deals, the negotiations, home inspections, repair request list, helping communicate to lenders, getting us to closing on the house that we wanted we deeply understood the importance of having a great agent and we consider ourselves lucky to have Linda Moore as our realtor. If you want results I strongly recommend using her and I promise you won't be disappointed! Breda C read more

I have sold two houses and purchased two houses with Linda Moore since 2008 and couldn't be more pleased with her knowledge, expertise, responsiveness, and negotiation strategies. She has dealt with many different types of situations where out-of-the-box thinking is mandated and the end results has been a workable solution. She knows her stuff and isn't afraid to guide you or other agents involved. Each time I have worked with her I feel as if I'm her only client, which I am not, but that is how dedicated she is to her clients. Linda is the type of realtor that you want as she will bring her years of experience and knowledge to your situation. I have even heard sellers who we are purchasing from how great she is and she isn't their realtor! Buying or selling a home is a scary process and Linda always provides a sense of calm and walks you through each windy path to the end result. I have trusted her with four houses for my family and would highly recommend her to anyone! read more

Linda is a terrific real estate professional. She has helped us with all of our real estate needs over the past 20 years. She is there for you in all respects regardless of whether it leads to a listing or a sale. She develops long term relationships and I think these are part of the reason she is so successful. She also invests a tremendous amount of energy all the time! She recently sold our house of 19 years. Her support started almost a year before it was even listed with direction on how to create curb appeal for the current market. She followed it all the way as contractors were working/staging and then hit it hard when it went on the market with open houses and buyer follow up. Finally she worked every detail during the escrow to ensure a close with all things properly done. I learned from this recent experience that selling a home for best value is no easy task. It takes a Realtor like Linda, persistently out there, working every aspect, to make it happen! read more

Linda Moore is a most effective manager of peoples' home sales. She is intelligent, organized, diligent, patient, and knows the Encinitas community extremely well. She knows who to contact to solve any problem that arises during the escrow process; her rolodex must contain thousands of names. Because the boundaries of my lot did not fit the description on the deed, we needed to obtain a new survey. She knew exactly the right person to contact. We needed to contact my old title company, and again, she knew who to contact to speed that along. She knew instinctively who would be really interested in buying my home, and she brought only those people to my open house. There was not a "Looky Loo" among them. Because of the deed variations, it took seven months for escrow to close, but Linda's enthusiasm never wavered. She was always available to answer all my questions. I couldn't recommend Linda Moore more highly. I think the world of her. read more

Recently, my wife and I purchased a home and used Linda as our broker. I firmly believe that had we had any other broker, we would have lost the sale. Linda's "come to the rescue" occurred several times. We had a contingency due to a resale across the country, which was delayed unexpectedly twice. In each instance Linda was able to get us a stay of execution that allowed the purchase to move forward slowly enough that would not cancel our purchase through default. In other areas, she was most patient in the showing of houses while sharing her feelings about the pros and cons of each property. I felt she was very honest and that her opinions had considerable merit. I could continue this greatly, but I believe I am supposed to be somewhat brief. In summation, I will just add, that, If you can get Linda to act as your broker, you simply can't go wrong John L read more

The prospect of selling my parents house following their death was daunting. The house needed major repairs, records were iffy, the children were scattered across the country and we were in the middle of a pandemic. Turns out the only major decision I had to make was to hire Linda Moore; then sit back and watch her work. She handled all problems and navigated us through every twist and turn with patience, confidence and sensitivity. She is a full-service agent. Linda arranged for inspections (engineers, arborists, pest control, sewage, etc.), pictures, advertising and house presentation, even an estate sale for us. She communicates well, understands people and is excellent at conflict resolution and negotiation. Simply put, she made selling our house easy; no drama and an outstanding outcome. read more

I have bought two houses with Linda in the past 10 years. My experience with her has been phenomenal! I met Linda when we moved to California from Arizona. She took the time to listen to us and because of that there was no time wasted looking at homes that were not suitable. We found a house and she was impeccable through the transaction. She is knowledgeable of the area, the different neighborhoods, even the type of pipe that went into certain homes depending on the year of construction. She is patient, so you do not feel the pressure to buy. Once you decide to put in an offer, she is diligent and she works with a fantastic group of people. This year I bough another house with Linda's help. I am very happy and if I had to sell and/or buy again, I would not use anyone else! I fully trust her! read more

We just purchased our first home and couldn't have done it without Linda's expertise. We researched a handful of realtors and decided Linda would be the best to represent us due to her expert knowledge of the industry, the area and overall reputation. She listened to what we wanted, walked us through each step in the process and patiently answered all our questions. Walking through homes with her was amazing. Not only did she know the area well, she also knew the different types of home structures, down to the type of fireplace! Being first-time home buyers, that was really helpful. Linda was available at all times and was extremely responsive -- jumping on a call with us even while she was on vacation just to be sure we got the house we wanted. Hands-down, we highly recommend Linda!! read more

Recently I decided to sell my Encinitas home and needed a realtor. I found Linda Moore by asking the internet the question, "who is the top rated real estate agent in Encinitas?" Linda absolutely meets and exceeds her reputation as a top realtor! She helped me make the "tough" decisions (for me) about what to do or not do to get ready to sell my home for top dollar. And we did! Due to Linda's huge network and ability to do a "pre-sale marketing campaign", we had a fabulous offer on the very first day the house was open for tour. I learned that Linda and her team are amazingly helpful in the "get the sale completed" escrow, inspections, title, etc stage of selling a house also, which is just as important. Would I use Linda again to sell my house? You bet! read more

My son was in the market to buy his first home and found Linda Moore based on her experience and reputation. She did not disappoint! She has a excellent knowledge of the local marketplace and once we found the right property she guided the sales transaction process with a complete team of professionals including mortgage loan bankers, home inspectors, and other trades people to insure timeliness and performance. I have completed numerous real estate transactions and Linda Moore is one of the best. She is complete professional, a practical problem solver and was always available all along the way. she even helped out on questions about neighborhood association issues and zoning questions at the City.If you retain her be ready to move! Thank you Linda Moore. read more
