"I would highly recommend Linda's services to a seasoned homebuyer or to a first-time home buyer (like us). Linda brings her expertise into a niche area/location that she serves, that I do not believe other realtors are capable of. She understood what type of buyers we are and was able to cater our selection towards like houses (value-driven).
We went to 20+ open houses/showings and she was consistent and always on time. Any question or concern we may have had was always fully addressed or found out at a later time.
We would highly recommend Linda's negotiating skills with other realtors as well. When interviewing other realtors many saw the role as a buyer's agent as black/white and checking boxes off. Linda was able to help us with out-of-the-box ideas/strategies, which we were able to apply in a hyper-competitive market.
I would not hesitate to recommend Linda's services - buyer's agent and/or seller's agent to any friends or family."
-Logan Miller and Nicole Simmons, Client
"Linda was a pleasure to work with! Every step of the process went smooth. She was professional, knowledgeable, and made selling our home an enjoyable experience. I would recommend Linda to anyone in Pittsburgh looking for a reliable agent."
-Nathan Larson, Client
"Linda's acumen on real estate transactions eschewed some headaches that might have been presented as our sale was part of an estate. Further, her advice on how best to present our home and market it put us quickly into a highest and best scenario. Lastly, having Linda as point in negotiations was comforting as a buyer was asking things of us that incurred a liability risk, and she was able to thwart that in a professional but polite and firm manner."
-Sean, Client
"She is the best real estate agent I have ever worked with. She is very meticulous about preparing your home for selling, and it works. My home was under contract in less than a day!!! Linda kept us informed about every step of the process, which put us at ease. I would recommend Linda because she is the consummate professional and gives real estate agents a good name."
-Sabine Turner, Client
"Linda Diffendal is an absolute jewel: incredibly knowledgeable, accessible, and successful. She provided expert guidance in coming up with creative ideas to help us win in a multiple offer situation. Linda always made us feel like a priority. She was highly professional but so approachable and personal. She returned calls and messages for even the smallest concerns. She is also such a genuinely nice, authentic person, a complete joy to work with. We will work with Linda in the future.
"
-Donald, Client
"Linda knew exactly how to market our property given research and familiarity with area. She did a lot of preparation with focus on local neighborhoods, and our offering.
She provided the extra effort to have very professional pictures and video.
Then based on results from other sales, once she said 'go' we had multiple offers in the first day.
Very pleasant experience, Linda was proactive EVERY step of the way."
-Scott and Angela Roese, Client
"Linda was amazing to work with on selling my home and buying a new one! I have used several realtors in the past and she has been the best. My house I was selling had several unique aspects to it and in this case, unique made it much more difficult to sell, but when I listed it with Linda, it sold within 3 days. It sold way quicker than I had expected and I hadn't started looking at homes to buy. Linda helped me find a home that was perfect for me and met all of my requirements and I was able to close on both homes on the same day. There were several stressful moments in both selling my home and buying a new one and Linda was there every step of the way. She stayed up several nights past midnight working on my deals so they went through and dealt with several very difficult people in the process and she was always professional. I no longer consider Linda my realtor, Linda is my friend!"
-Maria, Client
"Working with Linda was a fantastic experience. She is very knowledgeable and professional. Selling my uncle’s house was an emotional one for my parents and Linda was very sensitive in handling matters. We sold the property on the same day it was listed! "
-Linda Trocchio, Friend
"WOW! This was not an easy deal, selling a house in PA while living in TX during a pandemic. Also had to deal remotely with many completely unexpected repairs from the home inspection and dye test. This hole process was a journey and Linda Diffendal was AMAZING! This was not a high end, high price property but Linda treated it like it was. She was always there for me all times of the day and all days of the week to walk me thru this process. Linda was referred to me by a friend but I did some research before hiring her and saw she was a top 10% seller. Well after working with her I can see why. It's not only her knowledge but also her work ethic. She cares and is a hard worker. You will not go wrong with Linda. I would definitely recommend her and if I need an agent in the future she is the only call I make."
-Don Tokar, Client
"We have used Linda twice now for our real estate needs (both buying and selling). Our repeat business with her alone should speak to her expertise, but there is so much more to say about the experience with Linda. She is not only professional, very responsive, and super knowledgeable about the area (we relocated from out of state the first time she was our agent), she is also low-pressure and compassionate to the needs of the customer. Our first house buying experience had several ups and downs, and Linda was there for us with full support through the entire 4 month adventure. Our second time around with her, she was both our buying and selling agent, and we couldn't have been more pleased with her services. She has become a trusted real estate expert for our family and we will use her services when it is time to move again!"
-Jessica Gamet, Client
"Linda Diffendal made listing and selling my townhome a positive experience. Linda is very professional, knowledgeable, and quickly responded to any questions I brought to her. She is a great communicator and has been an absolute joy to work with from start to finish!"
-Rhonda , Client
"I would highly recommend Linda to anyone buying a home or selling their home, especially in this competitive market. Her dedication and professionalism is unmatched! She is always prompt and extremely knowledgeable in what she does. My husband and I saw countless homes, patiently waiting for the perfect one. When the perfect one came along, Linda was creative and smart in writing the winning offer in a multiple offer situation. We also sold our home with Linda. She helped us stage furniture, had great high quality photos and appropriately priced our home. This resulted in 17 offers! Linda is amazing at what she does and I cannot imagine buying or selling a home with anyone else but her!"
-Natalie and Matthew Bronoske, Client
"Thank you for all that you have done to help me sell my house in Beaver Falls. Beginning with the preparation prior to marketing, you gave me much appreciated advice. The data for the area were not favorable regarding a quick sale, but you were optimistic and accurate. Things went much more quickly than I anticipated. All of the paperwork was handled efficiently and in a timely manner. I felt that you worked as hard to sell my econo-home as you would have to sell a huge estate. I will definitely recommend your services to anyone that I know with real estate needs. Thanks again, Candice"
-Candice Ranelli, Client
"Linda spent a great deal of time showing us many houses with property - not close to anywhere. We didn't have to move, so it wasn't a problem for us that we didn't find the perfect house to force a move. Linda was very patient and not concerned about making a sale, if we weren't ready. She researched lots of possibilities for us. (We were very picky) When we were ready to sell an investment property, Linda was ready to help. Her knowledge and expertise of the area and the market helped us obtain 8 offers and a selling price over the asking price. We had lots of questions and Linda never got upset with all our emails and text messages. Linda is honest, trustworthy and loyal to her clients!"
-Jeff and Wendy Hughes, Client
"Linda is VERY, and I mean VERY thorough when it comes to the home buying and selling process (we have had the privilege to work with her on both sides). Her thoroughness helped us avoid a lot of costly mistakes and gave us peace of mind that Linda was truly our advocate. We would HIGHLY recommend Linda to anyone looking for a professional, articulate, and knowledgeable real estate agent that takes pride in her work, and looks out for the best interest of her client! "
-Jeramie & Carlyn Morschhauser, Client
"Linda was our real estate agent who made selling our home an excellent time for us. In selling a home, there is so much to know and so much to do. Linda was always so thorough, clear and accurate in all that she presented to us. If there was ever a question that needed addressed, she would always get back to us in a timely manner delivering exactly what she said she would. Her calm and professional manner was always apparent, and we soon came to know we could count on her to assist us along the way with ease. She was a cordial person with outstanding people skills. We were always amazed at the excellent manner she communicated with us what we needed along the way. Linda was dedicated to her mission in a professional manner, while still being concerned and considerate of our needs as well. Working with her was a pleasure that we will always remember. She made leaving our home of 23 years to move to an entirely different state so much easier. We cannot thank her enough."
-John and Ethel Quarles, Client
"We had an awesome experience with Linda. She is professional , helpful and answers questions quickly! We can only recommend giving Linda a call to help either selling or buying a home. If we had to rate her, she is definitely a 10/10!!"
-Robert and Sabine Turner, Client
"Linda was great to work with during our buying and selling process! She was always readily available to answer any of our questions and concerns. Linda sold our house in just days with multiple offers! Thank you so much Linda for your top notch expertise. 10/10 recommend!!"
-Ashley and Shane Barie, Client
"Linda was worth every dime of her commission and then some!!!
By following her expert listing advice, our home became a hot property immediately and we were under contract at well above asking within 48 hours. A dream for sure until a desktop appraisal came in light. This is where Linda truly shined! Her competency, coupled with her knowledge of real estate law and processes turned a bad situation around in HOURS and we were once again under contract with another fabulous offer before the day ended. Her take charge demeanor secured us the in-person appraisal our home deserved and we went to close without a hitch. Her responsiveness and attention to detail throughout the entire process was flawless! If you have a home to sell, Linda is your agent!!"
-Kim and Bob Treloar, Client
"Linda was an absolute pleasure to work with. We had to put a lot of faith into our agent, being first-time home buyers, and Linda helped us every step of the way. She was always available to answer our questions and guided us through the entire process. We were able to buy our first home seamlessly. We'd highly recommend working with Linda!"
-Noah and Liz, Client
"Where to start? As a first time home buyer initially the process of buying a home seemed like a long, convoluted journey. Not knowing where to begin and in a crazy housing market, my fiancé and I turned to Linda. From start to finish Linda's expertise, communication, and professionalism was exceptional. Time is a very precious thing and Linda's time she took with us was endless. From constant open houses and viewings to 11pm weekday calls, Linda was always there for us. We never felt pressured and she always had our feelings and interests first. The entire buying process couldn't have been easier or seamless, nor done without Linda. If you are in the market for buying your first home or selling your third. Coldwell Banker and Linda are nothing short from miracle workers. My fiancé and I closed on our first house in December and slowly making it from a house to our home."
-Christopher and Lauren, Client
"Linda was our buyer’s agent when we moved back to Pittsburgh. While searching for a home, we met Linda at an open house. Through conversation it became apparent that she is very personable and really cares about what her clients are looking for interns of features, neighborhood, etc. I asked her to be our agent on the spot!
Linda was very available, helped us through a few difficult situations during our house hunting experience and also gave us valuable advice, which helped us save money in the end. I would definitely recommend Linda to anyone that is looking for a real estate agent. She is a pleasure to work with."
-Jeff and Jessica Gamet, Client
"My boyfriend and I were very nervous going into buying our first home. When we first contacted Linda, she promised she would be there for any questions, concerns, or hardships that we faced during the process. I’ve never met a person that holds so close to the truth as Linda did. She was a rock star. She was available around the clock (sometimes we would talk to her very late at night) and never once made us feel like we were a bother or asking stupid questions. If I had to go through this process over again tomorrow, she would be the first person I call. We HIGHLY recommend Linda if you are thinking about purchasing/selling your home."
-Nick Venturini and Lauren Martin, Client
"You could not have a better ally than Linda when selling your home. Her strategic skills, guidance, expertise and knowledge of the current market are invaluable to the home buyer or seller. She’s always available to answer questions and she’s a such a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Linda!"
-Francine Anderson, Client
"Linda was a dream to work with! She sold our home in 4 quick days, with multiple offers, and we ended up getting over our asking price! Linda is equally as resourceful for home buyers! Not only would I refer and friends and family to Linda, I already have! Perfect mix of professionalism and personal touch! We enjoyed the process from start to finish with Linda, thanks to her extensive knowledge and guiding hand. When we are in the market again, Linda will be the first and only call!
"
-Emily, Client
"Top agent all around, very knowledgeable and will help you out with everything. Linda helped us buy land and sell our home. I would 100% recommend her to anyone!"
-Tom and Leigh Miller, Client
"Linda did an amazing job helping us navigate through the selling process of our home. Her professionalism and market knowledge is second to none! We would highly recommend Linda if you are looking to sell your home or need an agent to represent you as a buyer. Don't "SELL" yourself short...call Linda today!!!"
-Sharon and Mark Londino, Client
"My house selling experience was a lot less stressful THANKS to Linda! Linda knew my situation, if I was starting to stress, she knew how to calm me down and she stayed calm and serene herself. Linda's manner is perfect for what she does! Linda took the time to educate me on the process of selling my home and pricing it to sell in the time frame that was needed. Her help with staging and her personality and honest recommendations really paid off with the sale! Linda knows the surrounding area and I never second guessed she would help sell and find the perfect buyers for our home! Linda went above and beyond anyone's expectations for a realtor. I now am proud and so happy to call her a friend! I highly recommend Linda to sell or for her to help you find and BUY your perfect home! Linda is the Real Estate Queen!"
-JoAnn, Client
"Linda and I met at the Coldwell Banker Airport area office last spring and are enjoying our careers and continuously meeting new people.
Working with Linda is a joy as she brings a positive attitude, professionalism and a contagious excitement for real estate with her every day. It is evident that she has excellent customer service skills and great attention to detail with every transaction. When you work with her, you are in good hands!"
-Linda Siemons, Colleague
"We have lived in our current home for around 20 years, so we haven't been through the home selling process for a long time. From start to finish, Linda was there to make this experience as easy as possible. From her market knowledge, to advice on pricing, to preparing the house for sale, to the negotiation after listing, to closing...she was with us every step. Always responsive, and always keeping us a step ahead. Selling a home has so many details that can be overlooked, and Linda is a detail oriented agent, and no details were missed. Her assistance was not only needed, but it reduced our stress during the home selling process, knowing that she would have an answer and a remedy to any question. She also has an amazing network of people that saved us so much time on researching the people and companies that we needed for repairs, updates, etc, during this process. Linda was not only our real estate agent, she was our friend and trusted resource during this entire process. We could"
-Brent and Malinda Dragisich, Client
"We used Linda to sell our home (and buy land for our new home) and have nothing but good things to say about her. Her knowledge and professionalism sets her apart from all the other realtors we’ve dealt with. She is sharp and is a hard worker, ready to make the best deals for her clients. She will be our go to for any future transactions. Don’t hesitate to give her a call. You will be impressed too."
-Adam and Jill Wolfe, Client
"Linda is a complete professional. Most of us will only go through this process a couple of times, which comes with a certain amount of anxiety. Well, with Linda I knew every step before the next step even took place, and better yet there were no surprises. She immediately calms your anxiety during this major change in your world. I could not of been happier with my experience with Linda and would highly recommend for anyone looking to sell or buy, Linda is your person."
-Chris Ullom, Client
"Linda was superb in all aspects of our transaction, I could not be happier. Linda took the worry out of the entire process for us. She stayed on top of everything at all times. Even though she was busy with other clients, she kept track of all of our contractual deadlines and made sure that we, and our sellers, meet every one. At various points in the process when we needed other professionals to help us (financing, tradesmen, etc..) she provided us with lists of individuals who could assist us, but never pushed us towards any one individual, she provided her feedback if she had first hand knowledge of them but always left decision up to us. She even helped make arrangements to meet with some of these individuals when we did not have the time to do it ourselves! My husband and I always felt that she was there and available to us at any time to answer any and all questions and to work out details. She always looked out for our best interest."
-Scott and Lori Painter, Client
"I found a gem in Linda! My immediate impression upon meeting her was of a confident, knowledgeable and professional individual. She did not disappoint. She knew the answers to my questions or found them quickly if she did not.
Linda knows the area, the market, and the local customer base. She knew what it would take to sell the house quickly and she was spot on. She became a partner in this endeavor, making recommendations on what was necessary to improve the house's appeal based on her knowledge and experience. She is always cost conscious, never making recommendations that would not return value beyond their cost. She has access to great contractors, painters and other resources to take care of problems when I was either unable or unavailable to take care of things myself. She is not adverse to pitching in and doing things herself when the necessity arises. Linda was fun to work with, she was the expert when I needed one. She never disappointed. How could I not recommend her?"
-Harold Hroblak, Client
"Linda is a fabulous real estate agent. She is professional, punctual, responsive, and articulate. She is incredibly knowledgeable, and in the off chance we had a question for which she didn’t have an immediate answer, she made certain we got our inquiries addressed as soon as possible.
In addition, Linda always carried herself professionally, in attire and decorum, representing her company with confidence and pride.
Our house sold in 9 days, and I wholeheartedly believe it was due to excellent representation from Coldwell Banker Real Estate Agent, Linda Diffendal. I would HIGHLY recommend her services to anyone considering placing their property on the market."
-Rob and Shirl D'Amico, Client
"We would highly recommend Linda's services for your home buying or selling needs!! We used Linda to help us sell our home and right from the start we were nothing but impressed with her preparation and knowledge to help us through the entire process! We listed our home and very quickly had many showing requests and we received multiple offers! Linda was always responsive and helped guide us as we negotiated the terms on our home sale!! We highly recommend Linda Diffendal as your real estate agent!!"
-Justin and Becca Hays, Client
"Linda was an absolute blessing to work with during the sale of my home. From the first time I contacted her until the sale was complete, she was professional, punctual, knowledgeable and she had a genuine care/concern for my process. I will be using Linda in the future for the purchase of a new home and I would recommend her to anyone and everyone that is looking to sale/buy. She is top notch!"
-Erin Rogale, Client
"I've used Linda to sell a house, purchase a house, sell that house & then purchase land to build a custom home within the past 20 months. I tried selling my first house on and off for over 5 years and Linda got it sold in a few days! There were several difficulties selling that house & Linda was a huge help in navigating difficult circumstances. Once that house sold, she quickly helped me find another house so I could move out of one and right into the next. This was when houses were selling quickly, so she was quick to schedule a showing & get an offer that was accepted by the seller. Linda helped me sell that house 15 months later during the pandemic in 3 days - first buyer fell through & Linda was on top of everything to get it sold to my 2nd highest offer at full asking price. Then I was looking to purchase property - Linda was so patient through the entire process to help me find my dream land. She is kind, patient, super knowledgeable - has a great team supporting her."
-Maria Fattore, Client
"Linda helped my husband and I purchase our forever home while we were out of state. She was extremely reliable and trustworthy, doing a lot of the work behind the scenes to make our move seamless and low stress. Linda is EXTREMELY knowledgeable about the market and greater Pittsburgh area. We felt she was able to guide us through the home-buying process with ease and professionalism."
-Joe and Morgan Brucker, Client
"We would recommend Linda to anybody who is looking for a professional Real Estate Agent. You will find that in Linda. From the beginning to the end she was always there for us, She always kept in contact, kept us informed about everything that was going on. We would recommend her to anybody that is buying or selling a house. She is the best!! Sorry to say, since we are moving out of state we can't have her as our Buyer's Agent. "
-Robert and Sabine Turner, Client
