Testimonials: Our success is best demonstrated by what our clients say about the work we do. Here’s a sampling from 2016-2018

“Over the 13 years, we have known Linda & Don Travis as friends and professional advisers on two real estate transactions, the relationship has been our good fortune.” Bob & Nancy Ayres (Sellers, 2017)

“Linda is the perfect Realtor for the Big Canoe market! She understands the market, and skillfully guided me through the sale of the house. I was not there for the majority of the time the house was on the market, and she kept a close eye on the house, made certain the house was secure, and if anything needed to be done, she has an army of contractors to call who do first-rate work. Through every step of the process, Linda provided advice, gentle guidance, and insight that led to a successful conclusion – a sale acceptable to both the seller and buyer.” James (Charlotte) Jackson (Seller, 2017)

“Not only did Linda possess all the professional qualities one could wish for in a Realtor, but her cheerfulness, helpfulness and empathy were beyond traditional duties. We were selling a home that had great sentimental value, but needed quite a bit of sprucing up and staging to make it ready for sale. None of the siblings who inherited the house lived close by; Linda kept us abreast of maintenance needs, along with taking care of small clean-up jobs – that seemed frequently needed. Most importantly, Linda negotiated family emotions and disagreements with great skill, resulting in a happy sale for all.” Art & Mary Reid (Sellers, 2016)

“Linda has worked with us for 20 years. Always goes above and beyond for each transaction. Gets the best possible deal. Attends to details and follow-up that is unparalleled and above any service in the area…She would be nearly impossible for other Realtors to measure up to.” Mike & Sonia Cargile (Sellers, 2018)

“After my house was on the market for three years with few viewings, I hired Linda, and she sold it in less than a year! She showed my house three times more than my previous two Realtors combined! Since we were mostly absentee owners, Linda was also very helpful in making sure that the house was always “show-ready”, by arranging for it to be cleaned periodically, and the leaves on the porches and driveway blown away on a weekly basis.” Jean Weathers (Seller, 2017)

“We were very impressed with Linda from our first meeting….She had valuable market and comp information, and was a great help at setting the price. Shortly after listing the house with Linda Travis & Associates, we had a very good offer, which we accepted. Linda had excellent recommendations for people who completed “punch lists” following inspection. Any time we had questions, she was quick to respond, even when she was traveling. Our sale went quickly, with no hitches – thanks to Linda!” Jim Anderson (Sellers, 2016)

“Without a doubt, the most professional Realtor we have had the pleasure of working with. This was our 8th home purchase, and Linda Travis was hands down the most helpful and pleasant Realtor we’ve come across….We give her our highest recommendation!” Steve & Pat Kirks (Buyers, 2016)

“Linda and her husband, Don, are a very effective real estate team. They are extremely responsive to any requests made by the sellers. We transacted our sale by long distance, and it could not have been done without their help. Linda remains very calm and professional throughout the process, and was largely responsible for bringing our transaction to a successful conclusion. She is a very hard worker, and had our interests covered throughout. We highly recommend Linda Travis & Associates, Realtors!” Nick & Candy Munson (Sellers, 2017)  

“Linda is everything you could hope for in a Realtor. She showed great initiative and sold our house quickly, and in turn, found the house we were looking for. Linda is personable, easy to reach, an excellent communicator, assertive, and on top of the details. She found our new home before it even came on the market, because she listened to our needs and followed up on leads. She made the whole process more pleasant because of the person she is, and the help she gave us. I have no reservations whatsoever recommending Linda Travis to anyone buying or selling property in Big Canoe.” Peter & Cathy Zeliff (Sellers & Buyers, 2018)

“Linda is a highly professional Realtor with blazing intelligence, high energy and determination.  Her dedication and attention to detail of her clients’ needs are unparalleled. The offer on my home came shortly after her listing began, with Linda providing communication and follow-through every step of the way – from offer to closing. She was especially helpful in negotiating through unexpected issues that arose with my older home. Throughout the process, Linda made sure that I understood the effect of each decision made. Linda does not just meet or exceed the standard in Big Canoe real estate – she elevates it! Nancy Martin (Seller, 2016)

“Linda has done a great job guiding us through four real estate transactions. She is an experienced, professional Realtor, and someone we could trust to help us think through important decisions. Selling or buying a home can be a stressful, emotional process….We are grateful that Linda was on our team!” Jim & Claudia Campbell (Sellers & Buyers, 2017)

“Linda was very helpful in our decision to purchase a home in Big Canoe. She is extremely knowledgeable about the community, and was able to provide plusses and minuses of various decisions. Linda was also willing to meet with us on our schedule, and spent as much quality time as we needed. And when our decision started moving toward building a new home, which we had never done, she was able to put us in contact with several quality builders, and helped walk us through the process.”  Wade & Sue Strickland (Buyers, 2017)

“Linda responded to my first e-mail request for help within minutes. She spent countless hours and days over a year to find the perfect house. She listened to what I wanted most, and found it! Her knowledge of Big Canoe cannot be surpassed. She knows who built each house and the reputation of the builder; she knows the history of all the neighborhoods and the ownership chain of most of the houses…..I wouldn’t work with anyone else!” Ginger Watson Griffith (Buyer, 2017)  

“Linda has been spectacular! I cannot recommend her more highly. She was able to assist us in selling our home (we were remote sellers)…She always suggested the most cost-effective methods in getting the house ready for sale, helped coordinate good, reasonable subcontractors, marketed effectively, and is always pleasant to deal with. She lives in Big Canoe, so she knows the properties well. Russ Worth (Seller, 2017)

“Linda is a delight to work with! She was very responsive to us, and listened carefully to our questions and concerns. As a 20+ year resident of Big Canoe, Linda is not just an expert on the market, but on the process of becoming a resident. We cannot recommend her highly enough!” Dennis & Kathleen White (Buyers, 2016)

“I interviewed several agents before I recognized that Linda was going to provide real estate services above and beyond the norm. Without a listing agreement in place, she produced sales data for comps in my range, and made suggestions to improve the attraction of the home. As a result, the property sold within one week – for our asking price! Prior to closing, the buyers’ lending fell through, but Linda quickly engaged and secured another lending option that ultimately closed the sale. Linda provided timely updates throughout the process, and I strongly recommend utilizing her exceptional services. Linda’s level of professionalism in working with our family, including my mother (with dementia) was at the highest level, and I appreciate it.” James Chumley (Seller, 2016)

“Linda was wonderful to work with! Extremely professional, and very knowledgeable about North Georgia and Big Canoe. Because of her, we felt like we were already Big Canoers before we bought our land!”                                         Ralph & Ivette Tejeiro (Buyers, 2016)

“Great Realtor!.....Very responsible and friendly; was always available when I needed her! She was attentive to our needs and really took the time to help us pick the right house. Thank you Linda Travis & Associates!” Marius Stefan (Buyer, 2018)

“Linda is an excellent Realtor – we could not have had anyone better! She’s professional, always communicates well, very thorough and dependable, prompt in responding, extremely knowledgeable, and has creative solutions to challenging issues. She exceeded our expectations, going “above and beyond”. We could not have been more satisfied, and are pleased to write our recommendation. We would highly recommend her to anyone who is buying or selling property.” Bob & Irene Sheridan (Sellers, 2017)
