“I chose to work with Linda because she had great design ideas, a strong sales plan and demonstrated follow-through.
She masterfully managed the entire sales process. She maintained control of the transaction and always kept me updated.”
Linda Ngo recently helped me with a remodel project I was working on in Mill Valley. When I purchased the house, it was gutted down to the studs. My goal was to work with someone who could serve as the designer then list it when completed. I interviewed several Realtors that were experienced in the area, all were strong candidates. Ultimately, I chose to work with Linda because she had great design ideas, a strong sales plan and demonstrated follow-through. She worked closely with my contractor on executing the concept she developed. Due to the statewide shelter in place order that was in effect for most of 2020, we faced several delays and other unexpected challenges during the construction phase. Linda was there the entire time, willing to do what she could to keep things moving forward. Once the house was ready for market, she stepped up even more and masterfully managed the entire sales process. She maintained control of the transaction and always kept me updated. I am very happy with her performance in every aspect of this project. I have worked with many Realtors over the years and I can honestly say, Linda is one of the best. I plan to work with her again and I would suggest you do too.

“Linda’s working ethics and methods qualify her to be among the distinguished realtors. She expresses her opinions with supporting data and evidence-based market conditions. This made navigating different options became less stressful and decision-making appeared to be assured.”'
As someone who has worked with multiple realtors in the past, as both a buyer and a seller, I can say my experience of working with Linda (Linda Ngo) as my realtor (selling agent) was indeed a very pleasant and successful one.
There are some professional qualities that make a real estate agent stand out. And then there are some other professional characteristics that make them distinguishable. I believe Linda’s working ethics and methods qualify her to be among the distinguished realtors.
Although she is a real estate agent, she also has a very good understanding of interior design and its effects on the selling price. She assisted me with design suggestions and recommendations for renovating the property, which I believe resulted in a very successful outcome. She is technical and very detail oriented. That makes her recommendations (renovation recommendations/suggestions) very feasible and reasonable.
She kept the entire legal process of disclosures, signing documents, scheduling inspections, and ordering documents and records, well-organized and well-scheduled. Everything went very easily and on time. Every question I had was answered in a timely manner and all the concerns were addressed with informed explanations.
To summarize, I found her personality very professional and pleasant to work with. Her housing market analytical report was well researched, very informative, well presented, and accurate. She expresses her opinions with supporting data and evidence-based market conditions. Since her suggestions and opinions were always justified with information, navigating different options became less stressful and decision-making appeared to be assured.
To conclude, I certainly recommend her to anyone who is interested in buying or selling their property.

“Linda was able to talk through all the questions and concerns that WE had. I'm very grateful for this. I would highly recommend Linda to any of my family or friends.”
I reached out to Linda based on her stellar reviews and I'm so glad that I did. My parents have owned a rental home for the past 20+ years with the same tenant. Unfortunately, the tenant passed away and instead of putting it back onto the rental market, they decided to sell the home.
I came to Linda with the expectation that she would be managing the entire process. This included: assessing the home, project management of the entire renovation, sourcing the right contractor(s) and materials, marketing, utilizing her network, and ultimately selling the home. I did not have time to manage it myself since I was dealing with renovations on my own home.
I mention the above because I wish Linda was my project manager! Not only did she go over and beyond to ensure I was getting all the right pricing for the materials, she even hand delivered some of the materials to the home when we were approaching deadlines. In addition, she kept track of all the expenses and receipts so that we would have access to them (if needed). Needless to say, I was pleasantly surprised how quickly she earned my trust which allowed me to be completely hands off.
Linda also was very patient with my parents. She treated them as if they were her own. Linda was able to talk through all the questions and concerns that they had. I'm very grateful for this.
I would highly recommend Linda to any of my family or friends if they were thinking of buying or selling a home in the Bay Area!

“Linda helped make my first time home buying experience easy! She was very professional, quick to respond to messages and super helpful in answering all of my questions.”
Linda helped make my first time home buying experience easy! She was very professional, quick to respond to messages and super helpful in answering all of my questions. She took us to see properties on several different weekends and helped with the entire process, from advice for getting approved for a loan, taking us to see properties, putting in offers and closing. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy!”

“No agent can beat Linda’s worth ethic. She’s real, trustworthy, and reliable. Know that once you choose Linda as your agent, you’re in good hands.”
Linda Ngo has helped our family, clueless on anything Real Estate, sell our old home in Oakland and buy our mother’s dream home in Elk Grove. Linda is that agent you only dream of having. She educates, advocates, and delivers. Our sell/buy journey took us 3 years, yes, you read it right. 3 years! We weren’t lying when we said we were clueless! Linda patiently educated us from building our credit, expertly guiding us during the home search, and eventually negotiated for us an amazing deal on a home that would have otherwise been out of our price range. All of this would not have been possible if it weren’t for Linda.
We had no idea the process would take 3 years, we honestly thought it would be 3 months! But many unexpected things came when we were prepping our home for sale, all of which were out of our and Linda’s control. Luckily, Linda was able to navigate us through all the bumps. Honestly, had it not been for Linda, we don’t know if all of this would have been possible.
The rest of the reviews say it all. No agent can beat Linda’s worth ethic. She’s real, trustworthy, and reliable. Know that once you choose Linda as your agent, you’re in good hands. She will show you options that you never thought could be possible!
She fights for her clients and does not take losses. We will happily be referring her to all our friends and family and recommend you go with her too!
You’re welcome in advance.

“Linda is an absolute BOSS agent! She is, without question, thAT next level realtor that you want on your side! Her expertise in the market was unparalleled; being listed the top 10 Oakland realtors on social media, Linda continues to be my go-to hit to get the latest on all things real estate!”
Linda is an absolute BOSS agent! We were very fortunate to have Linda help us purchase our primary home in Oakland. We have several properties in and out of state, but with the California market, and specifically the Bay Area, Linda is, without question, that next level realtor that you want on your side! Her expertise in the market was unparalleled; being listed the top 10 Oakland realtors on social media, Linda continues to be my go-to hit to get the latest on all things real estate! But what really sets her apart is her personal attentiveness to her clients (she may as well add therapist to her list of job descriptions). Her professionalism, transparency, honesty, and dedication to representing the best interests of her clients are demonstrated in all aspects of her work. A wealth of knowledge and a fearless negotiator, she is quick to take action, and will really go out of her way to get the job done. Extremely thorough, detailed, and organized, she stayed on top of everything and was an amazing partner every step of the way. We can’t recommend her enough!

“We had the highest expectations and Linda met and exceeded all of them.”
Linda was responsible for selling our home in the East Bay and sold it at a record-breaking price per square foot (based on comps). With that said, a lot of planning and execution was achieved to get to this point.
Once we selected Linda to represent us, she quickly worked with us on our timeline. She saw the big picture and knew what to do immediately due to her experience in Bay Area real estate. Linda lined up all the right vendors to prep our home for sale and ensured each tight deadline was met. Furthermore, Linda ensured that every detail was considered and that we were able to present our home as pristine as possible. A great example that comes to mind is that the initial inspection report mentioned that there were cracks in our foundation. The fact that we did extensive foundation work to remediate the issue and strengthen the foundation was buried in comments towards the end of the inspection report. Linda was savvy enough to catch this and requested the inspector to change their comments to reflect this important detail.
We were also blown away by the marketing material Linda had orchestrated from stagers to photos to video. My wife and I told each other that we didn’t do our house justice after seeing what Linda and her team had done. The house went live and in 7 days we had a pre-emptive offer that we were very happy with and ultimately accepted.
In the end, it’s very hard to trust someone to represent your home that you hold so dear. We had the highest expectations and Linda met and exceeded all of them. She kept calm when things didn’t go to plan, was extremely prompt to respond to our hundreds of questions, and most importantly…she just got the job done (no matter what it took). We would highly recommend Linda to anyone looking to sell their home.

“Linda helped us keep our heads on our shoulders with advice and suggestions backed by her industry expertise. We're now happily moved in to our home and we 100% have Linda to thank for this.”
We were so lucky to work with Linda throughout our first-time home buying journey. Linda came recommended to us by a good friend. From the very first introduction call, Linda put in time and effort into getting to know us as people and what we were looking for in a home/neighborhood. We had a ton of questions and Linda was always just a call or text away to answer them, even at odd hours of the day. During the pandemic, we honestly weren't prepared for how competitive the real estate market was and how quickly it was moving. Linda made sure to book us tours for homes we liked right away so we wouldn't miss any opportunities, and was patient with us throughout the entire touring process. Linda helped us keep our heads on our shoulders with advice and suggestions backed by her industry expertise. She helped us negotiate a fair and clean offer on our dream starter home, and our offer was accepted! We're now happily moved in to our home and we 100% have Linda to thank for this.

“Linda is genuine, professional and without a doubt, reliable!”
We are SO GRATEFUL to have someone like Linda help us with our first home purchase! Linda is genuine, professional and without a doubt, reliable! She's always available to answer questions and even picked up my phone calls around midnight. What we appreciate the most about Linda is the combination of her work ethic, honesty, and knowledge. When we were viewing homes with Linda, she gave her honest opinion about the homes because she genuinely cared about us. I was very impressed when Linda told us she would never let us buy a home that was in poor condition. I was even more impressed when she went above and beyond to make sure all of the various permits were in place before we closed on the house. Linda put in some serious due diligence to ensure we were happy first time home buyers! She is definitely someone you want on your team when buying a home. We can't wait to work with Linda again! Thanks Linda!!!

“Linda was incredibly approachable, patient, thorough, and attentive: qualities that not all real estate agents I met with demonstrated.”
I am currently writing this from the dream house I never thought was obtainable, and it's because I had the luck and privilege of working with Linda.
I first met with Linda via phone while I was still living in Florida. I had previously lived in the bay and was really eager to move my family back but, being a first time buyer, I was really intimidated to approach what is inarguably the most aggressive and volatile market in the country right now. Linda was incredibly approachable, patient, thorough, and attentive: qualities that not all real estate agents I met with demonstrated. Linda genuinely cares about her clients finding a home that they love and that is within their means.
I met with her on May 23rd and 3 weeks later I was closing on my number one home choice. Linda worked all hours of the day, late into the night and even weekends answering all of my countless questions, getting in touch with the appropriate listing agents, escrow officers etc., and sending me all of the comps and disclosures on the obscene amount of houses I was looking at.
She very patiently explained everything to me making sure that I understood every aspect of homeownership (which I'm pretty sure is not in her job description). She was incredibly frank about what was, and was not realistic.
Finally Linda is just a kind and incredible person, the type of person that makes you feel comfortable, and not pressured buying a home.
I would HIGHLY recommend Linda Ngo to anybody even considering buying a house in the bay area. She works incredibly hard, is tirelessly thorough in her support of her clients and has the kind of compassion for her clients that one can only dream of when being so vulnerable and stressed as a first time buyer.
THANK YOU LINDA!!!

“Linda's follow up to the seller was spot on every time. I felt she was always on our side.”
This was our first ever buying of any kind of real estate. Linda's follow up to the seller was spot on every time. I felt she was always on our side. When and if the day comes to sell our fab new pad, there's no question she'll be our first contact.
-Jesper L.
“Linda made everything seamless and extremely efficient for all parties involved. We highly recommend her for anyone looking for a home in the Bay Area.”
I can't say enough good things about the excellent service that I received from Linda. She has an incredible knowledge of the Bay Area where we wanted to purchase an investment property. Within just a couple days we had an offer in and our offer was accepted a few days later. From the beginning of our search to the closing of the deal, Linda made everything seamless and extremely efficient for all parties involved. We highly recommend her for anyone looking for a home in the Bay Area.
-Aaron P.
“She was fantastic in all respect of her realty services. She is an excellent communicator, coordinator, and very pleasant to work with. I definitely would work with Linda again in the future.”
Linda has a wealth of knowledge and expertise of the housing market in the area we worked on. She was able to immediately provide us tailored listings of properties and showed them to us in such short notice. We only had two days in the area to seek and secure a property and we did it because of Linda. She was fantastic in all respect of her realty services. She is an excellent communicator, coordinator, and very pleasant to work with. I definitely would work with Linda again in the future.
-Ilasin L.
“I am looking forward to working with her on future investments and would recommend her to all my friends and family!”

“my fiancée was confident from the start that she was a bad a** who would advocate for us and get us the best price. He was right!”
Linda is skillful, personable, professional and fierce! She sold our East Oakland house for $130K over asking after just two weekends of open houses. We accepted an offer the following Wednesday. Putting a home on the market is an exhausting and emotional time of uncertainty when even the happiest couples bicker. I wouldn’t normally be comfortable with an outsider in my space during a time like that but Linda was different. I trusted her. And my fiancée was confident from the start that she was a bad a** who would advocate for us and get us the best price. He was right! And after all was said and done she was no longer an outsider. She was our friend. We would recommend her to anyone! A+
-Courtney A.
"her professionalism and attention to detail were exceptional."
I recently had the utmost pleasure of having an excellent realtor sell my home in Vallejo. I live an hour away, so I never got to meet her personally, but I can tell you that her professionalism and attention to detail were exceptional, and even though I never did meet her I can recommend her to anyone selling a home with the utmost enthusiasm! Linda Ngo of [Compass] was super prompt in conveying information, and gave some real good strategic advice when the deal seemed to be going south, that kept it on track and resolving even more favorably for me than I imagine it would have with anyone else at the helm. Rock on Linda! May others find you for their real estate needs!
-Robert P.
"An awesome person who just really understood her client."
Linda has been amazing to work with because she was able to do the following for me (the first time home buyer):
1. Review listings I would provide her and see properties quickly
2. Provide a realistic expectation of how much a property is going to go for
3. Guide me in neighborhood knowledge to ensure that my needs as a consumer were met
4. Work with a tight closing timeline and be available to answer all of my mortgage consultant's questions and needs.
5. Be an awesome person who just really understood her client.
I have since recommended her to my friends because I truly believe she is able to provide a great customer service, buying experience, and honest opinion. She never pushed a property that I did not want or desired but was able to be a shark when we needed to close. Highly recommend.

“We were impressed when she took it upon herself to do investigative research on properties beyond what was stated on the MLS disclosure reports. Throughout the entire home buying process Linda was advocating for us, we would highly recommend her to our friends and family.”
My Partner and I recently purchased our first home in West Berkeley, and Linda Ngo was our Realtor. We couldn’t be more pleased with Linda and the services she provided. Given the competitive nature of the Bay Area housing market, and the fact we were working with a limited budget, Linda was up to the challenge from day one of our working relationship. One of her strongest suits is her ability to deliver incredibly fast and concise communication. Even when she was on vacation, she got back to us immediately. And as we’ve learned, in this market speed is of the essence. As working professionals we have busy work schedules. Linda had no trouble setting up after hours private viewings of potential properties. We were impressed when she took it upon herself to do investigative research on properties beyond what was stated on the MLS disclosure reports. Throughout the entire home buying process Linda was advocating for us, we would highly recommend her to our friends and family. She would be the first person we will contact, should we decide to sell in the future.
-Walter C. and Kinzie K.
“Throughout the whole process, we could tell that she is an expert in the real estate business. I highly recommend working with Linda! She's an amazing person overall and she truly cares about her clients.”
Linda is the best! My fiance and I were nervous about buying our first home, but Linda made the entire home buying process very easy! She was very friendly and approachable during our first Zoom meeting. I immediately felt that she truly cared about us as people. Thus, we decided to stick with her and I'm so glad we did! She even introduced us to our mortgage lender and the pair work so well together.
Throughout the whole process, we could tell that she is an expert in the real estate business. Linda was very honest with us about whether a certain place was worth putting an offer or not. Additionally, whenever we had questions, she would send us articles that addressed our questions. I really appreciated that she answered all our questions, regardless of how late we texted her, and she never made us feel like we asked a dumb question. She's very friendly and easy to talk to. Plus, she's friendly to dogs!
She was able to get the offer for our condo off the market and also saved us thousands of dollars! She worked so hard and fast to get us our place, which took a lot of stress off our shoulders. I highly recommend working with Linda! She's an amazing person overall and she truly cares about her clients. She is not out there trying to just make another sale. Linda really wants to make sure her clients find their dream home and she did in our case. The housing market has been rough during the pandemic and yet she managed to find us a place that included everything we wanted to start a family.
Even after purchasing our place, she was kind enough to check if everything is going well. Thank you so much for everything Linda! We're forever grateful for all that you've done for us and our furbaby.

“It requires certain talent skills, strategies, knowledge, intelligence and some qualities as coordination, patience , honesty, devotion, fairness, protection to assist client from Realtor as Linda.”
Sometimes things change suddenly in our lives, not as you can plan. It happens to know Linda after we looked at Quesada Ave. SF, someone referred to Linda.
Driving, looking for houses around are fun, but buying the one you feel comfortable and dream are not that easy. It requires certain talent skills, strategies, knowledge, intelligence and some qualities as coordination, patience , honesty, devotion, fairness, protection to assist client from Realtor as Linda.
I'm not sure how I describe, but she often starts communication at a moment to take off all of our worries as first time buyer. First buyers often have a lot psychological worry as new couple marriage, they worry any thing.
When everything to the new home is accomplished, we start feeling to miss her. If I look for a new home in the future, we will look for her again as our agent. Or anyone needs a new home, we definitely will refer her to them.
Many thanks from our hearts to you !

I have been incredibly grateful to work alongside her as she gives her all to her clients, ensuring a timely and easy closing for her clients.

“I am so impressed with her ability to stay on top of everything and I always felt like a priority, even in this crazy market.”
I just purchased my first property and am more than thrilled to have found Linda! When looking for buyer representation, it was a priority for me to find someone that would advocate for me, and Linda went above and beyond my expectations. During the search, I could count on her extensive knowledge as a bay area native to provide her honest opinion about the property and location. Once I found my dream place, Linda worked with me and even got my first offer accepted. On top of all this, she has a network of partners to work with throughout the process and it truly felt like I had a rockstar team on my side the entire time.
I am so impressed with her ability to stay on top of everything and I always felt like a priority, even in this crazy market. I was lucky enough to have found her online, but you can bet I'll be recommending her to all my friends and family in the future. If you're looking for a real estate veteran to partner with, look no further - I highly recommend Linda for all your real estate needs!

“Linda is a true professional and a superstar at her craft. She’s hands-on throughout the entire process and very meticulous in the details to get the job done.”
Linda is a true professional and a superstar at her craft. She led the way for the purchase of my second home, and possibly my forever home. She’s hands-on throughout the entire process and very meticulous in the details to get the job done. She has a deep understanding of the market trends with the client expectations in mind, negotiates a fair deal, while keeping communication lines open so it’s a pleasant experience along the way. Thank you, GO LINDA!!

“Linda was always on top of things, always made sure I had the information I needed and knew exactly what was going on, and always following through on next steps.”
Linda just helped me buy my first house, in Oakland. She was so helpful and responsive through the entire process. I'm a first time buyer and Linda guided me through all the many things that could and did go sideways. After a couple of showings she quickly picked up on exactly what I was after in a house and helped me find just what I was looking for. I don't know how she does it, but Linda was always on top of things, always made sure I had the information I needed and knew exactly what was going on, and always following through on next steps. No matter what roadblocks and twists and turns we ran into, Linda had a plan to get us through it and she was honest about what the likely outcome would be. I highly recommend working with her.
-Jackie S.
“Linda was exceptional as my agent in helping me find a wonderful home! Her guidance through this whole process was invaluable.”
Linda was exceptional as my agent in helping me find a wonderful home!! During the initial search for a home, she was readily available in setting up tours and visiting each listing I was interested in, whether it was in the peninsula or the east bay. Her guidance through this whole process was invaluable. Prior to putting any offers in, she provided comp values and discussed what documents in the disclosures needed to be reviewed for each listing prior to putting an offer in. Once I had decided to put an offer into a home, she discussed negotiation strategies and provided advice on what needed to be done in order to win the bid. I want to note that this was actually the first and only offer I put into a house. Considering the current market in Spring of 2021, I had real doubts that I would win the bid but to no one’s surprise, we actually won the bid without any additional counter offers. Her support and guidance didn’t end there. Through the whole escrow process, she provided important dates to keep track of, contacted listing agent for any questions I had, coordinated the sewer lateral work and was always there for any questions. She even continues to keep in contact and still available for questions even after closure of escrow. I would definitely highly recommended Linda if you are looking to buy a new home!
-Alfred N.
“I really enjoyed working with Linda. She made the buying process so easy for me and kept me updated on what to expect next throughout the process.”
I really enjoyed working with Linda. She made the buying process so easy for me and kept me updated on what to expect next throughout the process. From what I was looking for in a home to putting in our offer, she was always there for me to ask her any questions. As a first time home buyer I didn't know what to expect, having Linda on my side, she made me feel very comfortable and I appreciate everything she has done for me.
-Derek V.
“Linda is absolutely amazing! She made my entire home buying process easy. I highly recommend Linda! I'm going to refer her to all my friends and family. She's a boss at what she does!”
Linda is absolutely amazing! She made my entire home buying process easy. I originally got in contact with Linda through a friend, who also closed a house with her in Oakland. My friend is extremely picky on who he works with, so when he sent me Linda, I knew she would be amazing. Throughout the process, she proved how knowledgeable she was in real estate, the market (she reads a lot of articles and always shares them with us), and home improvement projects. Linda was never pushy and worked with our timeline. I felt like she was looking out for our best interest, and not just trying to make a sale. I particularly appreciated how responsive Linda is. When it comes to home buying, especially in the bay area market, you want an agent you can count on to answer your questions right away. She was on top of it when we needed to put in an offer, even working really late hours to make sure the seller had everything they needed to accept. She got us a great deal that we are super happy with and saved us thousands of dollars! She made us feel like we were her only clients even though I know that's not the case. I highly recommend Linda! I'm going to refer her to all my friends and family. She's a boss at what she does!

“Linda went above and beyond to educate, provide sound research, and advised us on how we should negotiate.”
Linda helped my husband and I purchase our first home. With her expert guidance, we were able to have our first ever offer excepted on the first home we toured. Linda went above and beyond to educate, provide sound research, and advised us on how we should negotiate. Linda’s support really alleviated a ton of stress during this process. We couldn’t have done a single thing smoothly without her expertise and knowledge of the market.

We were 1st time home-buyers in the Bay Area, a hugely intimidating experience to say the least. Linda was the consummate professional through the entire process - helping us find homes that met our criteria and style, navigating the home buying journey, and providing insight and best practices.
Most importantly, Linda helped us find our dream home and masterfully negotiated the purchase.
We are now happy homeowners and have Linda to thank her persistence, experience and expertise!!

“She is has a very extensive local knowledge as well as on the overall real estate process.”
Linda helped me purchase my first home in the Vallejo/Fairfield area.
She is has a very extensive local knowledge as well as on the overall real estate process.
Using some of Linda's suggestions and advice, we were able to close in record time both on escrow and with the sellers taking into account the timing during holiday season.
Would recommend Linda to all new home buyers as well as sellers looking to sell their homes. She definitely has her client's best interests and will work very hard to ensure you are getting a fair deal.

“I could not be happier with my experience working with her and would highly recommend her to anyone.”
I had an amazing time working with Linda. As a first time home buyer, I had no idea what to expect. During my first meeting with her, she walked me through the entire process. She also helped me find the perfect house in the area I wanted to live and at a price in my budget. After finding the house, she helped with the process as well. My offer was accepted right away and next thing you know, I was moving into my new home. I could not be happier with my experience working with her and would highly recommend her to anyone.

“Linda was always on top of things, always made sure I had the information I needed and knew exactly what was going on, and always following through on next steps.”
Linda just helped me buy my first house, in Oakland. She was so helpful and responsive through the entire process. I'm a first time buyer and Linda guided me through all the many things that could and did go sideways. After a couple of showings she quickly picked up on exactly what I was after in a house and helped me find just what I was looking for. I don't know how she does it, but Linda was always on top of things, always made sure I had the information I needed and knew exactly what was going on, and always following through on next steps. I highly recommend working with her.

“Linda was able to save me $$$ during closing from the seller. She had a good strategy on negotiation and was open to me pushing for more. Who doesn’t like more money back?!”
Linda was fantastic to work with. This was my FIRST time buying a home and she helped me through the entire process; from the endless questions I had, to setting expectations for budget and price range, and finally, negotiating the offer. Linda was there the entire time and was always readily available.
I loved how responsive Linda was during the whole process. I felt like I was her only client (I know I wasn't haha) but her focus always felt like it was on me. She had a wealth of knowledge of the Bay Area and particularly Oakland, which is where I was looking for a home.

"She works incredibly hard, is tirelessly thorough in her support of her clients and has the kind of compassion for her clients that one can only dream of when being so vulnerable and stressed as a first time buyer."
I am currently writing this from the dream house I never thought was obtainable, and it's because I had the luck and privilege of working with Linda. I first met with Linda via phone while I was still living in Florida. I had previously lived in the bay and was really eager to move my family back but, being a first time buyer, I was really intimidated to approach what is inarguably the most aggressive and volatile market in the country right now. Linda was incredibly approachable, patient, thorough, and attentive: qualities that not all real estate agents I met with demonstrated. Linda genuinely cares about her clients finding a home that they love and that is within their means. I met with her on May 23rd and 3 weeks later I was closing on my number one home choice. Linda worked all hours of the day, late into the night and even weekends answering all of my countless questions, getting in touch with the appropriate listing agents, escrow officers etc., and sending me all of the comps and disclosures on the obscene amount of houses I was looking at. She very patiently explained everything to me making sure that I understood every aspect of homeownership (which I'm pretty sure is not in her job description). She was incredibly frank about what was, and was not realistic. Finally Linda is just a kind and incredible person, the type of person that makes you feel comfortable, and not pressured buying a home. I would HIGHLY recommend Linda Ngo to anybody even considering buying a house in the bay area. She works incredibly hard, is tirelessly thorough in her support of her clients and has the kind of compassion for her clients that one can only dream of when being so vulnerable and stressed as a first time buyer.

"Linda is a top-notch real estate agent and she truly went above and beyond to help me purchase my first home."
Linda is a top-notch real estate agent and she truly went above and beyond to help me purchase my first home. I highly recommend her if you are a buyer or looking in the Bay Area. I was referred to Linda by a friend who had been raving about her. She is very personable and easy to talk to, so I immediately connected with her. Not once did I feel uncomfortable asking her the million questions I had. She seemed to really listen to what I wanted, and was extremely knowledgeable about the market in the East Bay. She was always available when I had questions or when I wanted to see a property that didn’t have an open house, which I really liked about working with her. She was also proactive in sending me properties I might like. When we finally made an offer, my first lender couldn’t make my loan work, but Linda immediately referred me to another lender, that got me pre-approved right away. We were met with some obstacles during the escrow period, but Linda always had a solution and made me feel like everything was going to be ok. I honestly don’t know if I would have gotten my home if I was working with anyone else. I am so happy to have met and worked with Linda. She not only made the process easy and seamless, but she made the deal. I wouldn't be in my dream home today if it wasn’t for her. Thank you!!

"She not only knows this insane market like the back of her hand, but she also made me feel like a true partner."
I had the pleasure to work with Linda buying a house in Oakland. She not only knows this insane market like the back of her hand, but she also made me feel like a true partner. She was guiding me throughout the process, and I never once felt pressured or pushed. I loved working with Linda, combining superior service, experience, and always flexible schedule for showings. Linda is definitely the agent to choose. Thanks Linda!

Linda is a star agent.
She takes great pride in her work, and knows the market really well.
Ultimately with her help, we were able to purchase the perfect home.
Throughout the whole process, she was available to meet or talk on the phone, answer any questions, adjust our strategy to improve our buying power, and also willing to add a personal touch with our offer.
When time comes for our next purchase, we will be working with Linda again.

"Her knowledge and responsiveness were on point."
Linda Ngo is amazing. She is very professional and knowledgeable. When I first met her she wasted no time in getting to know what I wanted. I had been stressed looking for a house for some time and when Linda started working with me I felt at ease. She guided me through every step. As a first time buyer she assured me that she will walk with me from start to end. I was impressed at how well rounded she was. Her knowledge and responsiveness were on point. She kept me updated with every step and every change. Words can not express how grateful I am towards her time and effort put into closing the deal for my home. On top of that, she negotiated the price to be right at my budget. She is an amazing person to work.

"She was amazing during the negotiation process and got us the best deal."
We had been trying to buy a house for the last 5 years and after working with lots of realtors, we finally found a perfect one in Linda Ngo. She is very helpful, very friendly, and knowledgeable. In our case, she came forward with many alternative options, ideas, and advices which gave us the confidence to work with her in order to pursue our dream home. As our realtor, she was amazing during the negotiation process and got us the best deal we could get. We truly appreciate her extra help. I don't have enough words to thank her for her excellent services!!

Linda helped me purchase my first home last year. She was very professional and a pleasure to work with!
She patiently answered all of my questions and put me in touch with a great lender. Linda has a great over knowledge of the East Bay and helped show me different areas that I might be interested in.
When it came down to putting my offer in, everything was submitted very quickly on her end and she was able to get me a great deal on the loft I really wanted!
I will definitely be going with her again when I'm in the market again for another place.
