This concept of identifying each client’s unique selling position is the main component of her strategic plan for all her clients.

Linda holds a degree in Business Administration and graduated Magna Cum Lade. Her education includes thirty-two years of real estate continuing education in subjects she believes would benefit her clients' most, including Certified Negotiation Expert. There are few Real Estate professionals with extensive experience, skill, and talent, who put their clients’ needs before their own, and work as a true fiduciary for their buyer and seller clients. Linda is one of them.   Linda’s un-waving focus is to consistently secure the best terms for her clients, ensuring their real estate transactions meet and exceed expectations.

 In addition to Realty-Pros, Linda co-founded CGREI Capital Partners, LLC.

We invite passive investors to own shares in these investments.

Commitment to Community

 A native Staten Islander, Linda cares about the local Real Estate Community and her neighbors. She demonstrates this by volunteering her time to the Real Estate industry and neighborhood communities.

In 2002 she was a volunteer on the Staten Island Board of Realtor. She resided on the professional standards committee for four years hearing ethic violation cases. 2004-2006 she was nominated and elected to serve a two-year term as director of the board which held 2300 members at the time of her service.

In 2008 when the Real Estate and Banking industries collapsed, she was one of eight NYC realtors chosen to affiliate in a foreclosure prevention program with the Center for New York City Neighbors, a non-for-profit organization created by Mayor Bloomberg. She volunteered her time in this program counseling, educating, and speaking to homeowners on the process and the benefits of short sale rather than foreclosure. She helped many homeowners avoid deficiency judgments and bankruptcy through her expertise in short sales negotiations. She is currently still a certified and preferred broker for the Center for New York City Neighbors in their foreclosure prevention program.

She also organized events for Staten Islanders affected by hurricane Sandy. Storming Back was the name of this group of local professionals and vendors offering free advice to owners of damaged homes.

Linda's extends her advocacy beyond real estate; she passionately supported cancer survivors by organizing a fund raiser that also honored the life cancer survivors featuring music and special dance performances.  The funds raised contributed to providing education aimed at preventing cancer in her community. As a twenty-year cancer survivor, Linda is dedicated to raising awareness about prevention.

She also shares her journey with cancer survival in her book “Survivor’s Instinct” to inspire and educate others in their own experience.  Linda authored “Survivor’s Instinct” chronicling her cancer journey and the decisions to forego traditional treatment with instinct and self-research. Her purpose in writing the book is to provide guidance and support to others affected by this disease. It was published in 2019 by Outskirt Press and available on-line, Barnes & Noble, Amazon and other sites in paperback and digitally.
