CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

For anyone considering a realtor in the greater Washington DC area, I recommend you start by speaking with Linda Pettie of Coldwell Banker Realty. I owned an investment property in the Northeast neighborhood of Capitol Hill. Linda has a number of trusted contractors on speed dial. She arranged for several tradesmen to quickly and expertly make repairs prior to the sale of my home. She works with a very talented stager who presented the best impression for my home. Linda’s market analysis and marketing made my experience very efficient. She was readily available and quickly returned calls, emails, and texts. If I return to the metropolitan DC market, Linda Pettie will be my first call.

Working with Linda was the best decision we made in our home-buying process. She was knowledgeable, communicative, and a delight to get to know. She also provided excellent referrals to other service providers, which helped us with the purchase and the maintenance of our new home. We were so impressed by Linda's excellent judgement - whenever we faced a tough decision or needed advice on how to proceed, she gave recommendations that always resulted in our desired outcome. We can't imagine working with anyone else, and would highly recommend Linda's expertise!

Sam & Madeline

I engaged Linda Pettie to sell my Capitol Hill DC condo in a hurry for a good selling price. She quickly developed a plan for getting me from a very lived in condo to a staged condo that quickly sold for a good price. Linda is personable, well organized, hard working, professional, and is a joy to work with.

Linda Pettie made the process of selling our Capitol Hill house absolutely “seamless”. Despite our difficult set of circumstances which involved many “moving parts” and unusual obstacles…she made us feel like her only clients as she eased our troubles every step of the way.  Her experience, competence, professionalism and humor not only eliminated our stress but made the experience actually enjoyable for us…We could not have been happier when our house sold for more than our asking price the day the “coming soon” sign appeared!  Needless to say, Linda’s hard work more than paid off…we feel so fortunate to have had her as our agent (and now our friend) and give her the best recommendation possible.

Pamela & Daniel

Linda is amazing! We were feeling overwhelmed at the prospect of buying; she helped us focus and come up with a realistic, must-have list and budget. When the time came, she had an insider's track on an amazing historic home on the Hill + a buying strategy that would make our offer competitive. We somehow preempted the bidding war in a red hot market. She's a magician! 

Erich & Christina

With our busy careers and our first child due in May, my husband and I felt we were in a race against time to find our perfect first home together. Thanks to a referral from a colleague, we were connected to Linda. I am certain we had the best real estate agent in the DMV! When issues arose from the home inspection, Linda knew all the right people to get things done well and quickly. She was available for calls, emails, and texts at any hour (including weekends). Not many people can say that they purchased the first and only home they viewed. We can say that thanks to Linda. We closed within 45 days, giving us ample time to get our new home baby-ready! Linda tells it to you straight and gives you sound advice. She definitely had our best interest at heart. Linda, we are truly grateful for your professionalism, knowledge, and connections!

Miguella & John

Thirty years ago, Linda Pettie worked with me to find my first home on Capitol Hill.  And, thirty years later, I couldn't think of anyone but Linda to help me sell it.  Linda is a consummate professional, with an encyclopedic knowledge of the DC region--especially Capitol Hill.  Doing anything during the pandemic is a huge challenge, but Linda made selling my home a breeze.  She helped me with top-rate businesses for moving, home repairs, landscaping, staging and more.  She personally stepped up to trouble-shoot various issues that emerged throughout the process.  In short, Linda goes above and beyond.  If you're selling your home or buying a new one, call Linda.  It will be the best decision you'll ever make.   Thanks for everything.

We want to thank you for your great professionalism and wise counsel during our 18 years on Capitol Hill and our four very successful real estate transactions. You and Michael, and now Mark, have been thorough, confident and very savvy as you’ve guided our interactions with buyers, sellers, agents and the raft of others involved in the complex enterprise of residential real estate. But what we prize most is the warmth and friendship you have all given us. Most gratefully yours!

Ann & Jeff

We had a great home buying experience with the Pettie-Tubbs-Edwards Team. As first time home buyers, we were nervous about taking the plunge. Linda (Pettie) and Mark (Edwards) took time to walk us through the process, step by step, and they remained responsive and patient throughout our home search. Importantly, they understood the need for us to find the right home, not just a house. Plus, they have great relationships with area lenders, and other service providers, which made everything go smoothly one we found the right home."

Mac & Missy

My family worked with Linda to sell a family property in Capitol Hill under the most difficult of circumstances - we all lived out of town during the pandemic.  We could not have asked for a better partner.  Linda went above and beyond usual real estate agent responsibilities - helping us find vendors to clean, repair, vacate and sell the property in a timely and efficient manner.   She did numerous Zoom calls to help us go through mail and personal items and spent countless hours preparing for the sale of the property.   Linda is responsive and trustworthy and gave us sound advice about the real estate market.   I highly recommend Linda to anyone selling or buying a home in DC.

Lorena S.

Twelve years ago Linda was instrumental in helping us find the perfect home to start our family in Capitol Hill.  We were overwhelmed by her patience and persistence, as she steered two very anxious first-time homebuyers through what could have been a very confusing process. And so when it came time for our family to make another move, we knew we had someone in our corner who could help make it happen.  Linda and her team did not disappoint!  Anytime we had a question (we had many!), she seemed to have the answer.  Any time we had a problem (we had many!), she presented us with a solution. She is knowledgeable, friendly, responsive, and has unique insight into the Capitol Hill market, honed over the years, that is hard to match.  We are so happy with both of our transactions that Linda helped us with and heartily endorse her to anyone looking to navigate the always challenging DC housing market.

Tara & Mark

Linda, Mark and Michael were able to find our dream home twice, and sell our house in record time. Their knowledge of DC can’t be beat, and they have a true appreciation of the city’s history. They have become our friends through seeing us through our life changes and we feel so lucky we were able to work with them!”

Emily & Michael

You cannot find a more experienced or better realtor to find or sell a home. She (Linda) made my home sale experience so easy and stress-free. She found a buyer quickly and at the full listed price. She handled the entire process, from staging, to listing, to settlement, with expert care, and her guidance throughout was invaluable. I give her FIVE STARS!!!!!

Larry

Linda, Mark, Michael and Mary -- thank you! Finally, have caught up from the trip to Malaysia and a week of hosting family for Thanksgiving so am reflecting on last week. Can't believe in the midst of preparing green beans and stuffing (both Linda and me) that A Street was sold. You all have been terrific to work with -- knowledge of tenant’s rights, etc. -- as well as good advice on price, cleaning, hauling junk, selling as is, just absolutely invaluable. Words cannot convey my relief in having one of the properties off my worry list and my deep appreciation for your counsel

Judy

Thanks for your generosity of time and spirit and making the whole process so pleasant.

Marc & Bara

Early in 2021, my brother and I were facing the difficult task of selling our parents’ house on Capitol Hill. The house was well located but needed renovation work—and both of us lived hundreds of miles from Washington! For impossible situations like this one, Linda Pettie is a lifesaver! She organized the renovations—gathering estimates in coordination with us, using zoom videos to do walk-throughs along the way, and working with our budget in mind.  She then helped us find a wonderful and affordable staging company to add the finishing touches to the townhouse before listing it. Our townhouse was an investment property and presented another difficult job: working with the renters who occupied two of the units, a task made challenging by DC’s laws concerning tenants’ rights. Linda guided us through this challenging process, made sure to meet all the requirements, and guided us to closing in a timely manner.  The house had many showings and sold for far more than we were expecting

Cathy & Stephen

We have bought two properties and sold one property with Michael Tubbs and Linda Pettie. Linda should be everyone’s go-to for a home purchase or sale. A consummate professional, Linda will ensure that you will see homes that fit your vision as well as to ensure the process goes smoothly. Thank you, Linda for making our home sale and condo purchase happen! I commend you on your level of professionalism throughout this whole process.  You were dealing with lots of frustrations coming at you from both sides and gracefully kept it together to see this whole thing through till the very end.  You so very tactfully prodded people when you needed to do in an admirable diplomatic way.  I cannot begin to thank you enough for the effort you put into this sale and purchase!
