ZillowVERIFIEDWe have done both a purchase and sale of our Westport home with Linda and she is simply the best! Linda is the top agent for a reason - she has decades of experience, is a great communicator, strong negotiator, has integrity and most importantly she is such a pleasure to work with! In my experience all of those qualities in a real estate professional are nearly impossible to find. I cannot recommend Linda highly enough!

ZillowVERIFIED Linda was phenomenal to work with in every way! She leveraged her network to get my house market-ready and listed within just two days. During the closing process, she connected me with the right professionals to smooth out any bumps and stayed communicative through all the ups and downs. If youre looking for an agent, I highly recommend Linda!

ZillowVERIFIED Linda was terrific to eo work and not only helped find our house but negotiate and helped on closing all the small details that I could have easily overlooked.

ZillowVERIFIED I have worked with a number of real estate brokers over the past 30 years and Linda Skolnick stands out as the best by far. She is responsive, intelligent, and her advice has always been spot on. Most importantly, Linda is such a pleasure to work with, and she is not pushy at all. Linda took the time to understand what we were looking for and continuously kept us abreast of the local housing market, ultimately identifying exactly the types of homes we were in the market for. I wholeheartedly recommend Linda (and, she has a great sense of humor, and truly is such a nice person).

ZillowVERIFIED I can't even find the words to describe how helpful, supportive, kind and hands on Linda was with selling my home. If you are thinking about using Linda, don't think any more just proceed.

Review for Member: Linda Skolnick
ZillowVERIFIED Working with Linda is a dream! I've had the unique experience of working with Linda as both a buyer and seller and on both sides, I have seen that Linda displays the utmost in professionalism and competence. Most recently Linda represented me as a seller and she was nothing short of exceptional. Linda is extremely knowledgeable and provided all of the right advice every step along the way. She made the process of selling a house as stress-free as possible and went above and beyond to market my home effectively and give it maximum exposure. Open communication with Linda helped make the process so easy - Linda always makes herself available to answer questions and provide guidance. I was never waiting around for a response. Overall, she delivered results quickly and I could not be more pleased. I genuinely enjoyed working with Linda and would recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home in Westport!

ZillowVERIFIED Linda did an awesome job. She helped with suggestions about how to make the house look great for the sale. She managed the selling process extremely well. We ended up with multiple orders and did much better on the price than we thought we would at the start of the process.

ZillowVERIFIED Linda is the most outstanding real estate broker with whom I've ever worked. Her knowledge and understanding of the real estate market is profound and unmatched. I listened to, and did everything she recommended to prepare my house for listing. She was spot-on with every suggestion. If you're looking to sell your house, Linda should be the only phone call you make. She is quite simply the best at her vocation.

ZillowVERIFIED As first time homebuyers we had a ton of questions. Linda helped make this process easy for us. She was always available to help and answer questions we had. We would not have been able to close on our house without her. Her knowledge and experience really exceeded our expectations!

ZillowVERIFIED I can't recommend Linda highly enough. After working with a few other well known agents in Westport, Linda was a breath of fresh air. Professional, knowledgable, scrupulous, smart, and just an overall a complete pleasure to work with. I am grateful to Linda for making our lives so easy during a time that is could have been stressful. Linda made the sale of our home easy and enjoyable. I wish I could clone Linda to help with our real estate transactions everywhere. Linda is a rare gem.

ZillowVERIFIED Linda is the best. She made us a priority every step of the way. She was meticulous while helping stage our house. Her guidance on the price point was spot on, and her relationships in the community helped us sell our house in one day! It was the easiest process working with her and an absolute pleasure. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone selling or buying in the area!

ZillowVERIFIED Linda was SO on top of her game. She knew every house, every other broker, what needed to be done and when to edge buyers in front of their competition. She wasn't just our agent, but our personal therapist taking the time to reassure us we would find the right one during such a trying market. A+++ We found our dream home because of Linda!

ZillowVERIFIED Linda is an absolute shark. In a super tricky market, she was able to not only win us our dream house, but also create a bidding war for our sale. There is no one Id recommend more to have on your side in a real estate transaction and just generally in life.

Review for Member: Linda Skolnick
ZillowVERIFIED We have worked with quite a few realtors and none felt like they earned their commission like Linda. Her local knowledge, knowledge of the town rules and regulations, knowledge of the construction process and frankly her network is just unparalleled. I trust her implicitly and dont think we would have bought our house without her guidance, confidence, and items she negotiated during the process. We will never work with someone else again and hope to sell our own house with her at some point.

Review for Member: Linda Skolnick
ZillowVERIFIED There is no way we would have ended up buying the dream home that we did if we did not have Linda on our side. She is a true expert that helped us deftly navigate the crazy housing market, finding us an opportunity to purchase a home that was well beyond what we had hope to find for ourselves. Any one who is not working with Linda in the competitive Westport residential market is at a disadvantage to those that are! We cannot recommend her highly enough.

ZillowVERIFIED We came to Linda from a friend who bought a house from her seller. After the experience my friend had she recommend I reach out to Linda. I found that Linda is attentive, knowledgeable, and understanding. She was able to get our house ready bringing in furniture, pictures, and marketing within in days. If you want the job done use Linda!

ZillowVERIFIED I truely believe that without Linda, we would not have our dream home in Westport. We looked for over a year, then found Linda and she made it happen for us. She has not only been so helpful with the buying process, but has stayed in touch to help us along the way with everything else that goes into buying a home. We will be forever thankful to her and I cannot say enough good things about her!Stefanie

ZillowVERIFIED Linda is an exceptional professional who has her finger on the pulse of the Westport community and market.

Review for Member: Linda Skolnick
ZillowVERIFIED There are a large number of very good real estate brokers in Westport and Fairfield County Connecticut, and we have the good fortune of knowing many of them.So, when it came to listing our house and looking for a new one, selecting a broker was not an easy decision.While it was a tough decision, we selected Toni Mickiewicz of Raveis Realty and Linda Skolnick of Coldwell Banker to be our brokers in the sale of our home Westport, and the purchase of a condominium in Westport.It was a very good decision; both stayed with us throughout the two transactions and were great counsel through several tough negotiations. They represented us well throughout.While we know there are many good real estate brokers in town, we would recommend Toni and Linda to anybody considering a transaction in Fairfield County, or anywhere else for that matter.Sincerely,Gary Stibel and Esther Sloane

ZillowVERIFIED When a new job prompted us to relocate to the area, a listing caught my eye and I was sure it was the perfect home for our family. I knew in this crazy market it would sell fast and that we would need a really good agent. I quickly googled aEURoetop realtoraEUR? to find the best around, and Lindas name kept showing up. I gave her a call and she got us in to see it the next morning. The house turned out to be not so perfect, but the realtor was! It took several months, but with Lindas help we finally found our perfect home. Linda is the agent you want on your side. Her top priority is always whats in her clients best interest. She will dissuade you from a house when she knows it is not right for you. She knows every agent around and works well with them. She is smart, knowledgeable and hard working. She always responds quickly and doesnt mind long, late night phone calls. And when you do find that perfect home, she is an amazing negotiator, too! I highly recommend her!

ZillowVERIFIED Linda has two great skills. She knows what we should do to most effectively sell our house. And, she knows how to convince us to make the right decisions even when we don't initially agree. Hire her, tell her your thoughts and preferences, and then listen to her. It work extremely well for us.

Review for Member: Linda Skolnick
ZillowVERIFIED We used Linda Skolnick to sell our (antique) home and buy a new property in Westport. Buying and selling at the height of the 2021 market was a complicated undertakingaEUR" Lindas extensive relationships, marketing prowess and negotiating skills were invaluable to our success. Working with Linda could not have been more enjoyable; she was our calm, determined advocate from listing to closing. As Westport's number one agent, shes in complete command of market dynamics, ensuring we got the best price for our sale, and were competitive (but not foolish) with our purchase offer. We would recommend Linda without hesitation in any market, but in this market, youll find Lindas unique set of skills to be a true difference-maker.

ZillowVERIFIED I dont know what we would have done without Linda. Buying and selling in this market was challenging to say the least. Linda was our calm center in the storm. She truly believes there is no problem that cant be solved, and shes right! Its because of her persistence that we sold our home for the price we wanted and bought our dream home in the same market. I cant recommend her highly enough.

ZillowVERIFIED We were looking for a house for 4 months working with 3 different realtors at the same time without much luck. Finally we found Linda. Working with her was a totally different experience. She is very smart, efficient and diligent in her job. She quickly understood what we were looking for. We never felt pushed into placing an offer. She was a true advocate for us. Not only she found us what we were looking for but also she helped us win the bidding war without overpaying. She knows the market very well and she is well known too. We would not have gotten the house without her.

ZillowVERIFIED If you want to buy or sell a home, Linda Skolnick is the real estate professional you want. We are very experienced real estate purchasers and have worked with a lot of agents. Linda is truly exceptional-- she's knowledgable, flexible, extremely responsive and unquestionably looks out for her client's best interests. On top of that, she's genuinely nice too. We purchased a home remotely, in a highly competitive market. Linda provided all the information we required to make an informed judgement about the property, the market and the purchase. Her responsiveness has continued after closing, as we address important details and request additional information. We won't rely on anyone else for services in the future.

ZillowVERIFIED Linda is a force of nature in Westport real estate.A An extraordinary dealmaker with a huge local network, she often knows what's about to come up for sale before properties are listed, and she will do everything she can to make sure you are among the first to see them. She secured for us not one but two amazing homes during the insanely competitive pandemic market--first, a furnished rental and then a house we bought after selling our co-op in the city. Each was the only place we made an offer on.A Linda got us to the finish line both times amid multiple competing offers by presenting ours as the most compelling and by advocating relentlessly (I mean RELENTLESSLY) on our behalf. We also relied on her throughout the process to give us straight talking advice on everything from what to look for (and look out for). Bottom line: If you are lucky enough to be able to work with Linda on your Westport search, you are more than halfway home.

ZillowVERIFIED Working with Linda during the purchase of our dream home has been a splendid experience. From the very first call with her to our closing, she has been exceptionally kind, resourceful and knowledgeable.

ZillowVERIFIED Working with Linda was the best decision we made when starting our journey to find our dream home in Westport l. She was so incredibly patient with us as we constantly changed what we were looking for and always made herself readily available to us via phone/text or in person if we wanted to see anything immediately. Her positive attitude and amazing work ethic are far beyond anything weve ever seen. From day 1 she had our best interest as her top priority and made it very clear. She is an absolute pleasure to work with and is the only person wed ever want to work with in Westport (or anywhere!!) She is so respected among the other brokers in town and always follows through with exactly what she says shes going to do and SO quickly and at all hours of the night! She also goes way beyond a typical real estate agent and knows so much more about the houses than wed ever imagined. She made the process SO seamless and took care of every single detail without any hesitation. She is truly one of a kind and we cant recommend her enough. Thank you thank you Linda!!

ZillowVERIFIED Having bought and sold many properties, I found Linda to be the most professional broker I've worked with. In addition to the work I expect from a broker, Linda reviewed all documents and offered advice that complemented our attorney's. She doggedly sought information we wanted when it was difficult to get. She worked well with all parties involved without showing ego.I recommend Linda wholeheartedly.

ZillowVERIFIED We have been working with Linda professionally for over 20 years and have been friends even longer. She is an expert in the Westport market.She knows what to show based on our needs- she never wastes time, everything she does is deliberate. Linda has always anticipated our questions and represented our best interests as buyers, sellers or renting our home. She is a pleasure to work with, and is extremely honest and reliable.

Review for Member: Linda Skolnick
ZillowVERIFIED Linda is absolutely the best broker I have ever known. She is always one step ahead of everyone else in town, always able to explain how things work and what to expect, and always responsive no matter what time of day or night. Her negotiation skills are excellent- she is tough but reasonable, and she tells you exactly like it is. These are the skills we expect from all the best brokers- but what is so special about Linda is her ability to read her clients and understand how they process the sometimes difficult task of selling a home they have lived in for a long time. Linda did a phenomenal job handling my mixed emotions and she made a very stressful time for me feel very manageable. This is a skill that is hard to come by, and for that reason Linda will always be my go to broker (and friend) in the future.

ZillowVERIFIED To say Linda is the best in the business would be an understatement. She understands the market and the process better than anyone. She is professional, thorough and highly competent. Linda is the most responsive person weve ever worked with- available at all hours of the day/night and always happy to help. She has tremendous patience, and we very felt comfortable speaking with her, voicing concerns and asking questions. aEURoeGo Ask LindaaEUR? is not simply her brand- it perfectly describes what its like to work with her. Need a recommendation on anything under the sun? Go ask Linda. Need to navigate the real estate market? GO ASK LINDA. Anyone can show a house, but it takes someone like Linda to negotiate the best deal and ensure closing goes smoothly. Anyone would be incredibly lucky to have Linda in their corner. We would recommend her to our closest friends and family.

ZillowVERIFIED We have known Linda for many years, and she has been our agent as both Buyers and Sellers. In a nutshell, Linda is hands down the premier real estate agent in Westport, Weston and Wilton. She is extremely knowledgable, thorough, proactive, responsive and honest. We have been consistently impressed by her knowledge of the market and the people on the other side of transactions. Her negotiation skills are outstanding, and we have never been disappointed by the outcome. Nothing ever falls through the cracks. And perhaps most importantly, she is an absolute pleasure to work with. We could not recommend Linda highly enough!

She was patient and went above and beyond to bring us to homes so we could really get a sense of the type of home we were looking for. Linda knows the area like the back of her hand which made the process even easier. When it came down to putting in an offer, we ended up getting into a bit of a bidding war. Linda advised us hoe we should proceed and we ended up with our dream house!

ZillowVERIFIED Linda doesnt miss a beat! She is an extremely knowledgeable, savvy, thoughtful and responsive realtor - who clearly puts her clients interest top of mind. She made recommendations to get our house ready to list, rolled up her sleeves to get it done, and sold our house quicker than we thought would happen in a tough market! She exceeded our expectations. We feel so lucky to have found Linda!

ZillowVERIFIED After a year with another realtor Linda came over for the interview. She looked around and asked "Do you want to sell your house?" What she meant was listen to my recommendations and it will sell. As an architect putting her recommendations into action were easy and 3 months later we had a binder. Thank you Linda, you are the best!

ZillowVERIFIED If you're seeking a knowledgeable, dynamic and thorough real estate agent who will both take the time to understand your needs and find the right home for you, then look no further. My husband and I hired Linda after struggling to find a house that fit both of our needs for our family with another agent. He and I have incredibly different preferences, and thought that we would have to rent a house because we could not agree on a home. My friend recommended that I contact Linda, and I'm glad that we did. She found us what was the perfect house for both of us, we made an offer immediately after seeing the house, and the offer was accepted by the next morning. She wastes no time in the negotiations. She was a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend that you hire her as your agent.
