I want to express my sincere gratitude for the amazing, over the top, personalized service Linda Lafferty provided to me and my wife recently. We just purchased the home of our dreams with Linda’s help, and she has gone above and beyond what one would expect from a realtor in every imaginable category.
From the moment we met Linda, it was clear that she was not out to sell us a house. Rather, she was out to find the perfect home for us. She carefully prepared for our first day together, showing us seven homes that we had expressed interest in. She had detailed information on each property, and she was quick to point out potential downsides to each, demonstrating that she was squarely in our corner every step of the way. She has taken care of every single detail. I’ve purchased five homes in my life, and I’ve never received anywhere close to the kind of personalized service Linda has provided for us.
In my view, Linda struck the perfect balance, serving us as an advocate, confidant, subject matter expert, and, happily, as a new friend.
Mark Johnson
Linda is an exceptional realtor. In addition to being professional and proficient, she really cares for her clients. Linda went above and beyond for us in a personal manner. I would recommend her in a heartbeat.
~Dana
Dear Linda,
We can’t express enough of how grateful we are to you and the service provided. It was top notch! It’s because of you we were able to eventually find the perfect house to call home.
It has been a true pleasure having you as our agent for our real estate needs. You have not only exceeded expectations in having the resources and talent to perform, but also the joy you made it for us throughout the process.
We know it’s been a long stretch, but you helped guide us through our numerous questions which you answered effortlessly. This being our first home purchase as a committed couple has been a tremendous experience that we will cherish forever.
Your expertise has been noticed and we commend you for assisting us with achieving our dreams!
If anyone needs a recommendation for a real estate agent, we will be advocating for you, Linda Lafferty, whole-heartedly!
Sincerely,
Matthew & Desiree
We are so lucky to have found Linda. She navigated us through all of our first-time home buyer associated questions and concerns and we were able to find a fantastic home.
We loved and appreciated Linda’s honesty. She never hesitated to point out the potential challenges of homes we viewed, and she never rushed us into making a hasty decision. When we did find a home we loved, Linda pulled out all the stops and helped us lead with a strong offer and put our best foot forward. If we were feeling discouraged, Linda patiently comforted us and encouraged us to have faith and be patient.
Through the process from lender, to broker, to closing everyone that helped us facilitate the purchase of our home mentioned that Linda was incredibly professional and buttoned up with the process. We believe that Linda’s experience and professionalism was a main reason why our offer was accepted.
As she repeatedly told us, we would find a home we love, and she was right. We love everything about it and truly wouldn’t have been able to go through this journey without her. We will work with her in the future and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone!
~Arom Choi + Dan Hanafin
I have had the pleasure of working with Linda three times and each time she’s been thorough and a true professional. She’s extremely knowledgeable about the real estate market and more than willing to help in anyway she can. She answers texts and emails immediately and always has a satisfactory response. She got me a wonderful, above asking price offer on my house recently. She’s kind, considerate and I’m happy to call her my friend. She made my move to another state painless and less stressful.
~Char
We have had the privilege of working twice with Linda Lafferty with the Platinum Reality group. The first time was to sell our larger home and purchase a smaller house closer to my husband’s work, and now to sell that home. We had previously tried twice to sell the original house with another realtor without success. Then our neighbor recommended Linda. Linda’s professionalism and integrity are second to none. Her superior marketing skills made selling both homes a very pleasant experience. If we had a need for a trades person she always has excellent recommendations.
We are now in our new state, and truly feel we have left a very good friend behind.
Thank you Linda for all you have done for us.
~Marc and Carol Sisk
“Wow!”. That was our original testimonial for Linda, but we felt we should go into more detail for those who haven’t had the pleasure of working with her yet. We were moving to Colorado Springs from out of state and had very little idea of where to start. To say we were overwhelmed would be an understatement. Linda was warm, welcoming, meticulous and thorough with all the information she gathered for us on every house that we viewed. The level of trust we had in her was instant. She not only knew the city like the back of her hand but she also guided us through a very tumultuous market with optimism and unrivaled expertise the entire way. We found our perfect house and truly believe we wouldn’t have been able to do this without her. Linda Lafferty is an absolute gem and an amazing person we would recommend to anyone!
Seriously, you rock.
~Chad & Jennifer Ballew
Linda is the best realtor I have ever met, and I am convinced that she is the only realtor I’ll ever work with. Linda is professional, extremely knowledgeable about the area and houses, an expert in the local housing market, patient, and kind to clients. She is honest and does not cut corners. Linda responds to my messages and emails without delay and schedules showings within the day. I was looking for houses in the height of housing heat, and I was getting desperate, seeing housing prices shooting up by the day. Linda is more risk-averse than me. Every time I sent Linda a house of interest, Linda would investigate the house history and locations and inform me about hidden issues, such as moving soil and deserted mining, and saved me a lot of time during house hunting. Linda would point out issues during house showing and persuaded me to think them through. Thanks to Linda, I avoided several houses that I would have regretted had I bought them. Having decades of experience in the Colorado Springs real estate market, Linda has an acute and accurate perception of a house’s potential closing price and long-term value. Thanks to Linda, I was able to get a dream house. Linda goes above and beyond and takes extra effort reminding me of potential scams, closing procedures, and tirelessly persuading me of the importance of inspection even with the heated market. I appreciate Linda’s expertise and value the friendship through my house-buying experience with her. I highly recommend Linda to everyone searching for a house in Colorado Springs.
~G. Yang
Linda, I wanted to thank you for your work on this purchase. While I think our offer contributed to swaying them, I also believe it was the connection you personally made with their agent, the professionalism and courtesy you displayed during the transaction. It was you asking the simple question “what is most important to the seller” so we could tailor an offer that had appeal. This is the second house we won with a lower, but fair bid and you as our agent.
I know one of my turn-offs in fighting for the other house was the attitude of the agent. Attitudes and professionalism and human courtesy go a long way and it always comforts me to know you are in my corner and I can trust that you know what to do, how to do it and when to do it.
I wanted to share that I recognized that there were a number of contributing factors in our success here; one was us being flexible, the other was you.
Your number one fan!
~Charlsie
I just want to say Thank You! Thank you for being YOU!
Words can’t even begin to describe how much I enjoy working with you and what an honor it is.
You are truly the consummate professional!!! Extremely skilled with the highest degree of knowledge in your profession!
The care and dedication you put into every clients journey shows your heart and determination to make their experience the best it can possibly be.
I know without a doubt that if there is a hurdle in the transaction we are going to tackle it together in the best interest of our clients.
You sure set the bar high and I hope that new Agents coming into this industry can learn from your professionalism, integrity, expertise and attention to detail.
What a Blessing you are to your clients and to anyone that has the opportunity to work with you! Thank you Linda!
You truly are one of a kind and I’m so grateful for every opportunity and client referral!
~Sharon W.
What is considered one of the most difficult things to do you make considerably less stressful. Your thoughtfulness, patience and extensive knowledge are beyond compare. Thank you for being so attuned to our vision of our home, and exceptional attentiveness when it came to bidding, inspections, paperwork and the ridicules amounts of questions we asked. Thank you for your genuine warmth and care to our needs. You’re the best!
~The Callahans.
Linda has been my realtor over the last 20 years, handling five transactions for me. Each purchase and sale went smoothly! Linda was timely and accurate in her communications, keeping me informed each step of the way. Along with her contract knowledge and savviness, Linda is my choice real estate professional.
~Marilyn Hill
My wife and I used Linda Lafferty to sell our home in Colorado Springs and she is outstanding. Before choosing a real estate agent, for our corporate move we conducted a lot of research to see who would be the best choice based on our needs. Linda and The Platinum Group stood out as the best choice for us.
We spoke with Linda and then met with her at our home. She spent hours answering our questions, providing objective data, how long her listings typically stay on the market, and providing tons of info on comps in the area. Linda made the process incredibly easy and took extra steps like giving us staging tips, having professional photographs taken, and making sure our home was listed locally, regionally, and on real-estate sites like Zillow and others.
When we saw our listing we were blown away. Her hard work and knowledge of what it takes to sell a home really paid off – our listing looked amazing and knocked out the competition. We had great showings and had multiple offers which Linda help us navigate.
Our house went under contract 4 days after we put it on the market and received 5% over asking price. We accepted and Linda walked us through every step of the corporate move process as well as the closing process. It couldn’t have been a more pleasant experience. My wife and I would recommend anyone buying or selling a home to Linda. She’s a true professional and is amazing to work with. I realize the real-estate market is not easy to navigate at times, but I think you’d be hard pressed to find a better Realtor.
~James
If you’re looking for a realtor in the Colorado Springs area, look no further than Linda Lafferty with The Platinum Group. Linda worked with us from a place of highest integrity, honesty, and thoroughness.
Linda knows and uses resources from current technology and her years of experience in the Colorado Springs real estate market. At every house we viewed, Linda came prepared with permits issued and possible soils and landslide issues, and at the house she noted any issues that might be of concern. Yet she always said “it’s your decision.” Linda is meticulous, organized, and knowledgeable as well as personable and patient!
We bought our first house in 1965 in California; since then, and since then have bought and sold many properties in Missouri, Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado. As experienced buyers/sellers, we look for a realtor who will work for us and “make an offer work”. Even in today’s tough real estate market, Linda did that for our recent house purchase.
Above all else Linda is ethical, professional, and quick to respond to our many questions. Of all the realtors we have worked with, Linda is by far the best!
Look no further if you’re reading this. We recommend Linda with the highest confidence that you will enjoy and be served well by working with Linda.
~Sandy and Ron
Linda has been a pleasure to work with on both buying and then selling my house. She is extremely professional and knowledgeable about real estate in Colorado Springs, even counseling me not to buy a house due to price and location. When I purchased my home, she was steadfast in her advice and understood how to negotiate with the seller’s agent to get me the best price. She took a lot of the pressure off of me when I was doubting the strength of my offer. Five years later when I was ready to sell, I knew I wanted Linda on my side again. The pictures were amazing and she priced my house right to get the best offer, $15,000 above asking. During the sale, she handled everything with aplomb, communicating with me and the buyer’s agent to make sure the sale was handled in a timely and stress-free manner. I can’t thank Linda enough for her guidance, expertise and handling of both my purchase and sale
~Delia
When we began our journey to relocate from Illinois to Colorado, Linda Lafferty proved to be the one constant force giving us guidance as we navigated the purchasing process. She proved to be our most important resource as we began our search for a new home in a state over a thousand miles away. Due to travel and time restrictions, we didn’t have the flexibility to view prospective new homes in person, so she became our eyes and feet on the ground in Colorado Springs while we were still living in Illinois. From our first conversation with her until the day of the closing on our new townhome, she was always there for us. We found that we could rely on her invaluable knowledge and experience. Once we decided to build a new townhome, she was always available providing progress updates along with pictures and support during the building process. It was an exciting experience where she helped to limit any surprises and clear up the inevitable moments of confusion. She is a gem not only as a real estate agent, but as a human being as well. We highly recommend Linda and most assuredly would use her again if we ever plan to move to another home.
~Rick and Jacinta
If you are searching for the best real estate agent in Colorado Springs, you have found her. Linda is an exceptional real estate professional who is, without a doubt, the most knowledgeable, helpful and tireless agent we have ever worked with. Moving to Colorado in the middle of a very hot housing market was quickly becoming an overwhelming nightmare scenario for us as homebuyers, but Linda quickly and efficiently helped us find the perfect house and get it under contract. Her unparalleled expertise in the Colorado Springs housing market saved us countless hours of stress and anxiety. We would emphatically recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home in the area.
~Jacob and Jennifer
My wife and I worked with Linda to sell our home in Colorado Springs. She is a true professional and always has our best interests in mind. Her knowledge of the market and attention to detail are unparalleled and make the process stress free. The house was under contract in a matter of days after going on market due to her efforts. Linda guided us through the sale the entire way and went above and beyond to meet our needs. We will most certainly seek her out in the future for continued guidance. Linda is a must for all of your real estate needs.
~The Knef’s
Bria and I would like to thank you for helping us get a great home in Colorado Springs. While house hunting there, I was very nervous about not being able to find the right home for our family in this hot market. Over the course of our several days together, it felt like your time was entirely dedicated to us and we appreciate it more than you probably know. You are a true professional who looked out for our interests throughout the entire process and beyond. Thanks for your professionalism and care. If anyone asks us about buying a home in Colorado Springs, it will be you we point them to. Thanks again!
~Brian C
I have worked with Linda on several home purchases and have been very satisfied with the quality of representation on every purchase. Linda knows all of the details to look for and has steered us away from purchases we would have regretted by pointing out how the home we were looking at did not match our goals for the home purchase. Sometimes when the market is hard to buy in, it’s easy to become frustrated and forget what you are trying to accomplish by purchasing a home; Linda could have made a sale and moved on, but she always acts in our best interests. When looking at property, Linda does her homework ahead of time, so you know as much as is publicly possible about the property. It saves you looking at some that are unsuitable and lets you shop with your eyes open on every home.
Before a friend recommended Linda to us, we had made another home purchase. After the home purchase, we found that the electrical work had been done unpermitted. We had to pay thousands to correct this. I have never been to a home with Linda where we didn’t know the picture with permits, HOA, covenants and other important related information. If she’s unable to find the permit, she knows other signs to look for from her extensive time selling homes. She also freely admits when her knowledge is lacking in an area and will research what’s possible.
I would never consider using anyone else to make a home purchase; Linda is ethical, extremely responsive and always puts the best interests of her client ahead of profit. That level of ethics and personal commitment are hard to find in the modern world and I cannot recommend Linda highly enough.
~Charlsie and John
In these times when we rely so much on feedback, ratings, and testimonials when signing up, purchasing, or committing to anything, embarrassingly, I have to admit that I almost never write one. However, I recently relocated from the East Coast to the Colorado Springs area for work. Crunched for time and with much hesitation, I contacted the real estate group recommended by my employer’s relocation coordinator. My previous interactions with real estate agents left much to be desired…this was about to change dramatically. Linda Lafferty from the Platinum Group Realtors contacted me and we began a home search in this very difficult buyers’ market. Within a very short period of time, I realized that Linda was the real deal. She worked harder than I could at finding a house. She regularly took calls in the middle of the night, weekends and early mornings. She is an expert at the ins & outs of the area and market. When a house entered the market, she made sure that we were first to check it out and when I found a house, she made sure that everything was handled with utmost urgency and in the best interest of me as the buyer. She even showed up to the final walkthrough after recovering from a surgery the previous day. Linda is by far the hardest working agent that I have ever worked with and she has definitely earned my testimonial as well as my future business.
~Brian
Moving from out of state with children, we were in search of a realtor that was well versed in all things Colorado Springs. Linda is a true professional and surpassed all of our expectations! Not only is she a wonderful and caring person, but she also makes you feel like you are her only client. With her knowledge of schools, neighborhoods, and environmentally high-risk areas, Linda looked out for each of our interests and concerns every step of our buying journey. She goes the extra mile in all that she does. We can’t thank you enough, Linda, for your excellent care and fo r helping us find our ideal home!
We appreciate you more than you know! Thank you so much for your amazing service!!
~Kara and Brandon
Linda your effort in selling our Dad’s House was outstanding, You made the whole process easy and worry free. You are the nicest person to work with. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU to any future clients, the Platinum Group is Very Fortunate to have you.
~Many thanks again, Russell and Nathan Bak
Linda Lafferty is awesome! We decided to sell our vacation home in Colorado Springs after enjoying nearly 12 years there. Having never sold a home in Colorado we were very fortunate to be linked up with Linda. She is an outstanding communicator, responded to my many questions quickly, thoroughly and with patience. She guided us through multiple offers, knew all the right “handymen” when issues cropped up. Linda went above and beyond by meeting with various workers and cleaners when we were not in town and made sure every task was completed on schedule. She really made remote selling as simple as possible. I would recommend her without reservation! The above is sincerely meant! Thank you much. I am so glad that Cheri found you!
~Trudy
Thank you for all the timely updates on this purchase! You amaze me with how organized and efficient you are in communicating. There are so many details to remember about real estate transactions but you take the stress out of the process. That is one of the many reasons why I have never used any other real estate agent over the last seventeen years! You listen with an unbiased, knowledgeable ear to every question, concern, and expectation I have and most importantly you represent the highest level of integrity and honesty in anyone I’ve dealt with in the past. I appreciate how you give me the hard facts and then step back so I make my own informed decisions. Your honesty has saved me tens of thousands of dollar s which makes you the most valuable part of my real estate transactions. Thank you for everything! I have no stress and can relax knowing you are working so hard for me.
~Layne
While working with Linda to buy our new home in Lorson Ranch, I was
convinced that she would be the only realtor we’ll ever need. After
interviewing three other realtors we decided to stick with Linda. Her
knowledge, professionalism and terrific instincts have consistently
guided us through excellent outcomes. She kept us informed with weekly
updates to include pictures of the build. She’s a skilled listener and
negotiator, with very in-depth knowledge of the local
markets.
I’ve found that she keeps her client’s best interests at heart with a
sharp focus. With Linda you can always trust that she is on top of
every detail , big or small, which brought great peace of mind to our
real estate transaction. Without a doubt, we would seek her out
immediately for any upcoming real estate transaction in the future.
Linda thank you very much for all your hard work and dedication!
~The Calderon Family
Linda, You are the embodiment of “above and beyond”! You are a rare kind of generous with your time, professionalism and patience. Thank you for the “reality checks” and keeping us grounded through this process. Thank you for selling out home and protecting our interests with such respect, grace and thoughtfulness. We are grateful to have such a high caliber agent who not only is AMAZING at her job but also a wonderful person.
~With much respect, The Callahan’s.
Our experience with Linda was the absolute best Realtor experience we’ve had, and we’ve bought and sold six homes over our years as a military family. She is a true professional, knows the market, and takes the time to get to know her clients. She is proactive, prepared, and excels at communicating all the necessary steps involved in a real estate transaction. We would highly recommend Linda Lafferty as your Realtor for your home purchase or sale!
~Mark and Joan F.
Linda is a consummate professional with a keen business sense. She helped us purchase our home 3 years ago for a steal of a deal and made the sale of our home very easy and stress free. As we approached this sale during COVID-19 she was a steady hand to guide us to a quick and smooth sale. We will definitely be calling Linda for our next Colorado Springs home purchase.
~Hudson and Chelsea Graham
We were very blessed in partnering up with Linda by cold calling her agency. We were new to the area and looking to purchase a home after renting. She provided outstanding service as we found our new home in Colorado Springs. Linda knew from the beginning that we were coming into this process with high expectations – our previous home buying experience was very positive. She did a wonderful job and we feel very fortunate and lucky to have made it through this process twice with wonderful realtors.
From our first phone call, Linda made it clear she was there for us and ready to work on our behalf. When we shared our budget and needs, she was receptive and always listening throughout the entire process. When we started the search, houses were just reopening for in-person showings due to the pandemic and that was our first time meeting Linda in person. We instantly felt comfortable sharing our thoughts and opinions. She was always prompt to showings and made time in her schedule for anything that came up. Throughout our house hunting process, Linda was very receptive and supportive. We appreciated her knowledge of the area and strategic abilities in dealing with this very competitive market.
Even though we lost a few houses before finding one, Linda had an optimistic attitude. When we did find the right house for us and went under contract she was there every step of the way. She assisted us with the inspections and multipl e house walkthroughs. When we were coming up on the deadline with our lender she was there advocating for us until the end. We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Linda and would recommend her without a doubt. Thank you,
~Joe and Katie
I highly recommend Linda for your real estate needs. We moved from out-of-state and Linda helped us meet every challenge along the way. She was available to us when we had limited time to visit Colorado Springs and listened to our unique needs. Her communication skills are outstanding and she always kept us informed with what was happening. Most of all, I can honestly say that without her negotiation abilities, we would have missed out on our dream house. From the very start her experience was evident. Ina world where so much of looking for a home is virtual, she added the human touch and intelligence that made a huge difference. You will feel supported along the way.
~Rene
This is a brief message to let you know how much I value Linda Lafferty as an incredibly competent agent. I had the good fortune to work with Linda 4 years ago when she helped me sell my home; She went above and beyond in all aspects to market my home and help me through every step until closing. I returned to Colorado Springs 2 years ago during a very aggressive time in the real estate market, so I naturally turned to Linda. Just as with the thoroughness that had been present during the sale of my previous home, Linda searched, consulted and helped to guide me through my home purchase. The property was just what I wanted! Due to retirement, I decided to sell that home a few weeks ago – and Linda was the obvious choice! My home was sold in under a week! Linda has been invaluable to me – helping with anything I needed during the stressful time of buying, selling, moving out, and moving in. Thank you Linda!
~Celeste
Linda was recommended to us by a realtor friend through her “network”. This is our fourth home buy at different parts of the country: we can say that Linda is the best broker among those we have interacted with so far. She provided excellent service from the beginning of the process.
Our experience started with Linda sitting down with us and talking through the home buying process as well as the current realities of the Colorado Springs market. Based on our input (budget, ideal home, ideal location), Linda provided ideas on neighborhoods that might fit our wants/needs and what type of home we might expect to find within our budget. We were very indecisive home shoppers, so we definitely tested Linda’s knowledge (and sometime her patience) about local communities, types of homes and we were never disappointed with her responses.
Most importantly, Linda was always honest with us and we always felt that she truly had our best interests at heart not only now, but after the closing, as well. In the future, if we ever decide to move, we will definitely ask Linda again to sell our home and find a new one.
~Marietta and Istvan
I prefer to get referrals from people, so when I was moving to Colorado Springs I talked to a friend of a friend that used to live in Colorado Springs and she recommended Linda Lafferty. She only had positive things to say about Linda, who has worked with her and other members of her family. I enjoyed talking with Linda on the phone and knew she would be good. Right away she started sending me ideas. She was always helpful, never pushy. Also made whatever changes I wanted and answered all my questions. I only had one weekend (really one day) to visit and hopefully find a home. Things did not go well that day trying to find a home, but Linda remained helpful and positive. In the end, she was able to help us find a wonderful house in the area that I wanted to be in and I am very grateful. I would recommend Linda to anyone; her knowledge and hardworking attitude makes her the best to work with in this area.
~ANNA
Linda is the person that you want on your side when buying a home. Her knowledge, determined spirit, and genuine love for her clients makes her my only choice when it comes to an area realtor.
~Jennifer
Linda was such a pleasure to work with. You can tell she really cares about her clients!
~Rachael Butler, Vantage Homes
My wife and I were very lucky to get paired up with Linda when relocating from Oregon to Colorado Springs for work. It was clear early on that Linda was very experienced, knowledgeable, and dedicated. When we were in Colorado Springs on a house hunting trip, Linda devoted several days to just us, helped arrange for several home viewings, and informed us about the area. Linda knew the builders, the neighborhoods, and had great suggestions for things to do while in town! Not being from Colorado, this was very helpful and very important to my wife and me. Linda helped us successfully find a house in those few days!
The house we picked out was still under construction, and Linda would frequently check on things at the house and send us photos. She followed up on loose ends with the builder and bank. She was on top of things at every step and followed through on every request. Most importantly to us, Linda had our best interest in mind throughout the entire process. Even after close, Linda has already touched base with us. In short, Linda has gone above and beyond our expectations.
~The Grinvalds
Linda,
As I prepare to go to closing on my new home in Colorado Springs, I wanted to share with you how much I appreciate the experience you created for me.
From our first phone call and then subsequent first meeting, I knew I was in great hands with you as my Realtor.
Every step of the way you have been the consummate professional. Starting with our intake session where you sought to understand what was important to me, the type of home and area I was interested in. Moving across country was quite an undertaking, never having lived west of the Mississippi I had a lot to learn about Colorado.
In our first market tour, your expertise and understanding of the community was amazing. You pointed out important points of interest and were filled with fun facts about the history of Colorado Springs.
I think we may have looked at 30 or so homes, and I kept bombarding you with homes that I thought looked interesting. No matter how I strayed from my target area, you humored me to view the homes even though you knew they probably weren’t what I was looking for.
As I began the process to make offers, you advocated for me in a way that I have never experienced before. From sharing information about shifting grounds and potential impacts to foundations to educating me on the landslide maps. I grew to appreciate even more your knowledge of the local marketplace.
As we finalized negotiations on the property that is now my Colorado home, you continued to advocate for me proactively. From staying on top of the contract deadlines, your support thru the inspection process, inspection objection remediation to closing, I have always had complete confidence you have always had my best interest at heart.
On a 10-point scale I would give you an 11. World Class service, industry and community knowledge, and advocacy for your client are towering strengths of how you approach your business.
Thank you so very much for helping me navigate the relocation process and for making me feel that not only I chose the best Realtor, but that I now have a trusted friend in Colorado Springs. I would recommend you to anyone looking for a home in the area and appreciate all you have done to help me become a Colorado Springs homeowner.
Thank you
~Dawn Champiny
Linda, You are an amazing person and realtor with a touch of magic. And, you guided me through the purchase of my first house at a particularly difficult time in my life. I will never forget the kindness and care you showered on me and my children. I am eternally grateful to have found you from friends that have worked with you before.
~Thank you,Karen
Linda,
Your experience and knowledge was vast, and very helpful in getting our first home. We are so grateful that you took time to help us look for the right home. We were amazed by how promptly you responded to all of our questions no matter how small.
You went above and beyond the call of duty, and would love to work with you again if w e ever decide to venture into the mountains. Thank you from all three of us, and we are so happy to have you in our lives.
~The Boys
Dear Linda,
We’d like to take a moment now that we’ve closed on our new home (!) to thank you for all you’ve done for us.
We remembered your diligence and attention to detail from when you helped us buy and sell a home fifteen years ago, so we were confident in seeking your help once mo re as we returned to Colorado.
You delivered. Again!
Our recent purchase was a more complicated transaction than our previous ones with you, but you provided us with sage advice and represented us with sound professionalism, making the entire process as smooth as possible. We were greatly impressed with you complete command of all aspects of the purchase, including its enabling technology.
We’ve recommended you to friends and family in the past, and we look forward to doing so again!
With warmest regards,
~Steven H. Williams, Ph.D. & Paula R. Cooke, Ph.D.
Linda,
You have always brought knowledge and value to us. This is why in our 20 years of working with you we keep coming back to you.
You have always made the buying and selling experience effortless. You have always made yourself available to helpful in every way. Most recently you have offered valuable help with some road blocks we have run into in Ohio when buying there. When we have questions you provide very knowledgeable and direct answers. We appreciate that more than you know.
~David and Carla
Linda,
You have been such an amazing Realtor. You’ve done a wonderful job of keeping in touch, providing recommendations, and making us feel like you truly care. We are so grateful for everything you have done! I will continue to recommend you any chance I get. No one could ask for a better Realtor!
~Thank you, The Hills.
Linda,
I wanted to thank you for all the added efforts you did with the sale of my house. Not only did you meet all the basic requirement as my realtor, you used your high level of experience and education to help me make educated decision that subsequently lead to a quick sell of my house in Fountain. Some of the more impressive things I experienced with you as my realtor were:
o that you were highly educated on the current CO market making my decisions on priced the house very easy to make.
o your attention to detail on the inter design of the house was very impressive allowing for a great feel of the house when people walking through it.
o finally my personal favorite was that you weren’t afraid to speak up when things didn’t seem correct, that said you did it in a manner that was very professionally worded. This not only increasing my trust level in your abilities but also ensure that the correct decisions were made.
You have by far been the best realtor I have ever had and I would refer you to anyone looking to buy or sell a house in the Colorado springs area.

Here we are all settled in our new home in Colorado Springs. The journey started last July when David and I decided to move to Colorado from California to be close to family living here and especially our grandchildren . We were fortunate to have been given a referral for a knowledgeable Realtor and that was a lucky day for us!Linda Lafferty is a remarkable women. She met us in July and showed us many homes in the Springs so we could get a feel for the area and neighborhoods. So that was the deciding factor to begin our move to Colorado. We felt we would be in excellent hands through this process. After many months of renovation of our California home and keeping our eye on the Colorado Springs market through Linda’s expertise by sending us many homes to view, We sold our home in CA in March. Linda is a very smart realtor. She knows this area very well and never pushed us to make a decision. We looked and looked and finally, She brought us to the perfect home for us. She listens and gets a feel for what you are looking for. So we made an offer and next we were buying our new home! She was with us every step of the way right through closing and beyond! Being from another state the task of closing and making sure our inspection went well was a little difficult. However, Linda made it a smooth transition. We highly recommend her as a realtor and a good friend! Thank you Linda! David and I are very happy with our home!
~Kristina and David Van Brasch
We were very impressed with Linda Lafferty as our selling realtor. We met Linda a bit over ten years ago when we purchased a house in Colorado Springs and were impressed with her then. When it came time to sell our house she was the first person we contacted. We did our due diligence by also contacting two additional realtors and had them come out, look at our house and do a preliminary work up. There was simply no comparison between the three. Linda showed up having already done considerable homework on our house, its location and it’s value as well as an excellent eye for what needed to be done to help the sale. It was an easy choice to again go with her. Linda is meticulous, organized, thorough and does everything with care and consideration. She evaluated our house with the eye of an inspector/appraiser and made a list of recommended repairs which were both reasonable and prudent. As a result of listening to her excellent advice our house sold very fast and had no issues on inspection. She did a great job with the listing and photographs. More than anything Linda kept us up to date on every single event, what we needed to do and what it meant. Her communication with us by email, phone and text was simply outstanding. If we had any questions she would respond amazingly fast, usually within a couple of hours or less. Her answers were thorough and well considered and we came to really trust her guidance in the process. Linda is calm, very experienced and is a very easy person to listen to and get guidance from in what is a stressful time for most people. Perhaps one of the most amazing things about Linda is her enthusiasm for the process. Even though she has decades of experience she still got excited for our buyers (first time buyers) and for us in making the sale. She was positive and upbeat the entire time, very reassuring when the inevitable glitches happened and always kept us very well informed at every single step. Without Linda we are sure that our sale would have had issues, would have taken longer and we would have gotten less for the house. More than that it would have definitely been more stressful. We recommend her at the highest level and without hesitation and if we ever needed to sell or buy real estate in Colorado Springs again we would definitely choose her.
~Jeff and Mary Lynn Matthews
I wanted to take a moment to share our experience working with Linda Lafferty. We came to Colorado Springs after working with an outstanding real estate agent who helped us to sell our home in North Carolina, and we were curious as to whether we would be lucky enough to find such a talented agent out here in Colorado for our new home search. We needn’t have worried.
Linda Lafferty is an outstanding agent who helped us with every aspect of our home search and purchase. She is highly-attentive and friendly, and she responded quickly to our questions, really incorporating our input as our home search progressed. Linda is very well-informed and experienced with all of the nuances of the home-buying process here in the Colorado Springs area, and was a great advocate for us. Her detail-oriented nature allowed her to really tailor her efforts to our unique situation.
Finally, Linda has good, strong relationships with a variety of service providers to help with anything you might need – from home inspections and radon testing, to the contractors, paint, flooring and fireplace folks we needed to get our new home ready for move-in. It was so great knowing we could trust the reliability and quality of the work being done, and this really is thanks to Linda.
If you are looking for a realtor to help you with your home buying or selling process, we are entirely confident you will love her as much as we do.
~The Griders
Thank you for being a fantastic real estate agent. From the beginning you provided Kathy and me listings that fit our requirements. Once we settled on a house there arose complications with the closing and the inspection results, but you skillfully helped us to navigate through them.
Your prompt and thorough communications combined with your depth of knowledge were quite impressive. We will gladly recommend your services and call upon you in our future real estate ventures.
~Mark Brady
If you are thinking of buying or selling a home in Colorado Springs, I highly recommend Linda Lafferty. Not only is she a Member of Peak Producers and Elite 25 Realtors of Colorado Springs, she has been in the business for many years and is one of the top real estate professionals in the area. Her honesty and integrity are above reproach. Linda knows the market, is congenial to work with and can showcase your property in ways that bring quick and positive outcomes. The best interests of her clients are always foremost on her mind.
Most recently, I worked with Linda when selling my home to move out of state. There were many complications which continued long after closing and my leaving Colorado. Although the problems did not arise from the sale or closing, it was Linda who did all the follow through for me in order to assure the buyers received everything agreed upon. I am not sure how I would have gotten through the many difficulties without Linda, especially since I was so far away. Through it all, Linda was there for me. Her patience with the continuous barrage of problems that arose and her ingenuity in overcoming them exceeded my wildest expectations. I was and am incredibly grateful to her for all her hard work on my behalf. For these many reasons, I would not even consider working with another real estate professional in the Colorado Springs market. Linda is the best!
~Ida Bauer
In my job, I have worked with a lot of REALTORS, but when it came time to list our home we chose Linda. We were a little nervous, the market was slowing a little, but we had multiple offers the same day we put it on the market, and Linda had us under contract the next day over list price. Most importantly, she was always there for us. Providing invaluable advice, making sure we only did what needed to be done on inspection, and making sure our contract was air tight. When something came up she was not required to handle, she did it. Knowing I was here by myself, she went above and beyond to help me. When we were told our roof was not going to be done prior to closing, she made sure it was so nothing was delayed. We cannot speak more highly of Linda. She is full of integrity, a strong negotiator, and will work hard on your behalf. We wish we could take her with us, not only as a REALTOR, but also because she is our friend.
~Brandy and Sam
We were impressed with Linda from the very start. She worked to understand our priorities and needs as sellers and then not only met but exceeded them. While her knowledge of and experience in the Colorado Springs market is key, it’s her customer service that sets her apart. She professionally and personally cared for us and as a result, we sold our home and were able to carry on with our move seamlessly. I would gladly work with Linda any time.
~Hans and Patrice
We can’t say enough good things about Linda Lafferty of The Platinum Group. She is an amazing realtor, advisor, and advocate.
We are seniors, and we decided to start the monumental task of selling our home and having a new smaller home built in a different neighborhood. Linda’s vast knowledge and experience allowed her to price our home perfectly for a quick sale. We got a full price offer in 8 days, and Linda walked us through all the steps to a successful closing.
Linda also gave us excellent advice which helped us choose our home builder and location. She accompanied us to every meeting with our builder, making sure we understood all the documents and procedures. She also visited our build site frequently to help us oversee the progress and ensure quality work.
This entire marathon move was so much easier for us because we had Linda by our side! She truly is the “best in the business”. Her knowledge, experience, attention to detail, hard work, and kindness are unsurpassed. Working with Linda Lafferty is the best decision we ever made! And along the way we also gained a great friend!
~Denny and Jan
We couldn’t be happier to recommend Linda to help you find your new home! Since our first introduction, Linda has been nothing but incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. You can tell straight away she is well respected in the industry and knows how to get things done. Her wealth of experience means she knows everything there is to know, or knows the person who can get the answer for you. We are first time homeowners, and Linda has been exceptionally thorough in explaining the process from beginning to end in language we could understand. Her expert guidance and straightforwardness helped us filter through what we thought we wanted to find a perfect home for us. Linda’s commitment to her profession is second to none and her common sense and moral compass will assure you that you are getting the best experience and home possible, with her top priority being your utmost happiness and satisfaction. We look forward to working with her again!
~Joe and Becca
We cannot thank you enough for guiding us through the sale and purchase of our homes. We truly couldn’t have done it without you. You are an amazing Realtor and now friend. We will recommend you to everyone we know. Your hard work, expertise, and kindness are unmatched.
~The LaBandts
Linda was like a trusted friend. We were no longer living in Colorado Springs, so many of the items that needed to be done had to be done by Linda. She always jumped in and took care of business, including things we had not even thought about. She gave us great advice on what to do to make our property as ready as it could be for the sale, without overspending on preparation activities. We would use Linda for future real estate work without hesitation – she has done a terrific job for us twice! Linda helped us buy our house and later helped us sell the house, both without any hiccups and that was thanks to Linda!
~Scott and Shari
Linda Lafferty has proven time and time again why she is an award winning platinum realtor! I have used Linda four times to buy and sell a home. I was impressed with her the first time I sold my home, but each time after that, buying and selling, she went out of her way to impress me more! I always felt I was her top client even at her busiest times.
My most recent experience involved the selling of two homes while trying to find the perfect home for our new family. Her attentiveness to our needs, her resourcefulness, and her positive attitude through every situation made Linda so enjoyable and easy to work with. She was available whenever we had a question, concern, or simply needed to talk; we always knew she had our best interest in mind. You always want to trust that your realtor is on your side, and never did we doubt Linda. Being trustworthy is one of Linda’s best characteristics–which is why I always came back to her. Linda Lafferty is well known and highly respected in the Colorado Springs area. If anyone is looking to work with a #1 realtor, Linda Lafferty is by far the best choice!
~Marjorie
Linda Lafferty is by far the best realtor we have ever worked with. She is extremely knowledgeable regarding every single aspect of purchasing a new home and any information/help beyond the purchase. She truly goes above and beyond for her clients. We felt comfortable with Linda throughout the entire process of purchasing our home. She truly grasped exactly what we wanted in our dream home and was extremely patient with us. No questions were ever left unanswered and every response was prompt. Not only is Linda amazing at her job but she is also a wonderful person and a pleasure to work with. Thank you for everything Linda!
~Marius & Marna Brits
Linda is a fantastic realtor. I really can’t say enough good things about her. When we got serious about selling our house, I asked my networks in town AND my aunt who is a realtor in Illinois “who is the best in Colorado Springs?” The verdict from both my in-town friends and colleagues and all the realtors in Illinois was: Linda Lafferty. And they were right! From the moment we met her, Linda was professional, prepared, and worth every penny. She started with a market analysis of both our current home and what we were looking for in a new home. She convinced us we should be a little bit aggressive when listing our old home, and we closed on a full price offer! We also got a great deal on our new house.
Now getting great prices on homes is what a great realtor can and should do for you. What really set Linda apart was how much she saved us on home repairs. Like all homes, our old house needed some minor repairs before sale and our new home needed some tweaks to make it just right for us. We needed to find a deck person, a landscaper, a floor person. Finding all of those different contractors is time consuming, you’re never really sure how high quality they are, and because I’ll probably only transact with each of them once a decade, they don’t have a whole lot of incentive to do a good job for me. But EVERYBODY knows Linda. I think they’re a little afraid of her. For each new item, Linda would recommend a couple people, I’d look them up and call my favorite, and we’d talk about options for the work. Then they’d ask how I got their number. “Oh, you’re working with Linda Lafferty? Then we’ve got to do Option B, because while Option A might be ok for some people, Linda will not like anything less than Option B and she’ll think Option C is overkill.” We’ve gotten quality, affordable work from everyone Linda has recommended. I’m convinced she’s saved us thousands in cash and dozens of hours of research. That is why Linda is not just a great realtor; she is fantastic.
~Thank you Linda! Jessica and Nick
We are a military family and had to buy our home unseen from across the country. Linda was thorough, patient, and her knowledge of the area is unmatched. We had a few “must-haves” including a resonable ROI as we plan to sell when we are reassigned. She consistently brought details to our attention that we hadn’t thought of and was frank in our conversations. She’s incredibly detail-oriented. She worked with us for three months and never pushed us to make a decision or to pursue or bid on homes outside of our price range. Linda is always available to lend her expertise with a very speedy response time. We cannot recommend Linda enough and are so grateful for her assistance.
~Mike
Buying and selling a home can be extremely stressful and at times overbearing. Linda Lafferty has made this process hassle free and she really does go the extra mile! I was skeptical at first, due to past experiences from other realtors and how much of a headache it was. I was referred to her by a friend of mine and he told me she will do anything and everything in her power to make sure you get the most out of your home, while not having to really do anything. I met with her back in October to let her know I was looking to sell in January. The moment I met her, I knew she was the one to make it happen. She is such a genuine, sweet lady full of joy and happiness but also knows her way around the market! Anything and everything was answered before I could even ask the question! She told me what I should and shouldn’t fix and how to make my home look presentable Through the process of placing it on the market to closing, it went by extremely fast! Within 24 hours my house was under contract and I closed within 2 weeks. She is a very experienced negotiator and fights for you at all costs! They came back with a ton of different items they wanted fixed through the inspection and at the end of everything, I only fixed the “necessary” items. Being a father, working 2 jobs and full time in school, I don’t have a bunch of time for unnecessary business. She never bothered me with anything that wasn’t need to know and had all of the paperwork done only needing signatures. If there was a question or item you were unsure of, she could answer it with very valuable and detailed information.
Going further down my journey with Linda and purchasing a home, this was also the best possible experience I could imagine. Due to the competitive booming market in Colorado Springs right now, it can be extremely troublesome to find a home that’s fit for you at a reasonable cost. I finally came across a few that I wanted to see. She set up appointments ASAP and we went to look at them. She pointed out things that I would have missed walking through on my own, which helped me broaden my horizons and pay closer attention to detail A week went by and I finally found the one! She advised me exactly what to do with the offer and as to why we should make it, for what we did. What do you know, we were under contract within a few hours! Through the inspection process and the appraisal, there were numerous issues found with the home, not to mention that it came in under value and it was one week until closing. She told me not to worry and that she had it all under control! With her expertise in negotiating, she got them to fix all of the items and then some, along with dropping the price down to appraised value. She truly will fight for you with whatever it is that you are wanting!
Conclusively, if you are looking for a realtor that truly fights for you with a hassle free experience, Linda Lafferty is the realtor for you! She is the most kind and caring woman that really takes an interest into her clients. There was not a single moment when working with Linda that I became worried, nervous, scared, etc. She made sure and constantly reassured throughout each process! I will forever keep Linda in my contacts and highly recommend her for everyone to work with!
P.S. Did I mention how knowledgeable she is? She knows the market like the back of her hand!
~Justin Lamborn
I would like to highly recommend Linda Lafferty if you are considering buying a home. After having been a realtor myself, as well as having worked with many realtors over the years, I can tell you that I felt honored and blessed to have a professional like Linda working for me.
After our initial meeting, Linda immediately set me up via email to receive and view homes which met my requirements. Other realtors will, of course, do this too, but Linda checked in with me often and quickly assessed my personal tastes. She then began to personally review the email selections that were sent to me, as well as make recommendations to me based on her experience and my hopes. Her ability to identify my tastes, as well as her commitment to research, led to me quickly submitting a bid on the home I am now happily living in!
Once I was under contract, the number of tasks that needed to be accomplished were overwhelming, but I trusted that Linda would walk me through each step. I was right to do so, because Linda easily navigated the tasks for each deadline. More than once Linda simply called me to say she had already completed the contract deadline task. If there was something regarding a deadline that I needed to complete, Linda would simply text me a reminder, while still working behind the scenes with the other contractors or contacts to ensure no task was forgotten.
Linda is always professional and kind, never pushy, and very caring. Even when one of my early home deals fell through, Linda remained compassionate, helpful, and happy when working with me. Every part of my home buying experience, from the initial sales presentation, to viewing homes, to completing deadlines and closing the deal felt stress-free.
Linda is an absolute expert, and she will make your experience buying a home easy and enjoyable. She has an unparalleled commitment to professionalism, as well as a heart that desires to serve you like a best friend.
~Damon
There are not enough words to express how sincerely grateful I am for all you have done for me! House after house, multiple contracts and disappointments. Through it all you have been so positive.
You walked me diligently through every step, made so many calls on my behalf, you were my advocate and provided wisdom and guidance.
You are the gold standard in your industry! You have been a trusted adviser to my entire family when they bought and sold homes too.
~Many thanks, Carrie.
We were recommended to Linda by a friend and we couldn’t have been more fortunate in finding her to help purchase our first home! Linda was excellent to work with and talked us through every step of the way. She offered us assurance and her expertise left us in no doubt that we were receiving the very best advice. Linda worked very hard for us and we would be delighted to be able to work with her again in future. We couldn’t be happier and couldn’t offer her a higher recommendation! She allowed us to enjoy the process and for that we are truly grateful.
~The Pearson’s
My husband and I relocated from Texas and were referred to Linda as a top real estate agent in Colorado Springs. We first had a phone interview and after that there was no doubt she was the one that could assist us in finding exactly what we were looking for!!. Linda listened to what we wanted and more importantly, what we didn’t want. The day we arrived at her office to view the properties she selected, everything was professionally presented and ready to go. Linda spent a great deal of time showing us all the listings pointing out all the good things and the bad. Linda is very familiar with all the critical things involved in making a decision to purchase your home such as location, school district, taxes, price, and resale potential. Once we made our decision Linda was still there working harder than ever to get inspections and repairs done, We would highly recommend Linda Lafferty and could not imagine working with anybody else!!
~Camille Tackaberry
Linda Lafferty of the Platinum Group listed our home. The listing photos for our home were beautiful. She so friendly and so professional. Our home had an offer in 4 days after listing it and everything went so smoothly. She really knows what she is doing and goes over and beyond. She is top notch and A+++ .
~John Westrom & Debbie Jenise
My husband and I were first time homebuyers and really had no clue what we were doing. We are so thankful that we found Linda because she really knows her stuff and made our first home buying experience a pleasant and easy one. Linda was right by our side the entire home buying process. On the day we closed, she reviewed all of the paperwork before hand and even saved the seller some money! You can be confident that when you work with Linda, you are truly getting a realtor who is going to look out for your best interest. There were several major issues discovered when we did the walkthrough of our home and I was so disappointed, but Linda knew exactly what to do. She negotiated for the repairs, made sure that were done properly, and moved us right along in the process. I never felt like I had to follow up with her because she is fantastic about communicating, and has the most amazing time management skills of anyone I’ve met. She listened to what we wanted and helped guide us to a home that works perfectly for us. We couldn’t be happier. Thank you Linda!
-The Sharps
Look no further! Linda is a consummate professional who always puts her client’s interests first. From day one Linda showed an understanding that no single real estate transaction is identical and no matter the home’s value selling or buying is one of the most important transactions a family can experience.
Our situation, of course, was different. We had come to the decision we wanted to change neighborhoods, but knew because of the current market we would need to sell our home before purchasing in our target area. Linda helped us prepare, market, and sell our home. All of which happened very quickly. Linda walked us through the tasks of prepping the home for extremely well done photos and how to manage keeping the home presentable for showings while still living in it with a 3 year old child. Her office managed all showing appointments and always kept our busy schedule and preferences in mind. Our home was located in an area known to be tricky for appraisals. Linda hit it right on! The home sold fast, so fast in fact, we chose to rent instead of force a purchase in our target area. Renting was something Linda supported and never once attempted to pressure us to buy. In fact, she went above and beyond to help us find and negotiate a very comfortable rental. We have three pets, so this wasn’t an easy task! We can’t imagine the number of calls Linda was making behind the scenes to help us! As we settle in to our rental, Linda is helping us transition to the next phase: buying.
Linda has been very diligent in listening to our needs in a “forever” home. She has set up a very detailed and custom search. The suggested houses have been well thought out. Additionally, Linda is helping us explore the option of building.
Linda is truly someone to be trusted. We have a good friend and trusted advisor in Linda! Please read more testimonials, or save some time and gain peace of mind by hiring Linda.
-Lisa, Jay, and Kendall
Linda Lafferty of the Platinum Group is the BEST and made my home buying experience in Colorado Springs wonderful even in a highly competitive market. Her knowledge and expertise saved me from making potential mistakes and her amazing patience guided me to find the perfect home in a wonderful neighborhood. She took the time to get to know us and understand what we were looking for, so when she found a house that had just come on the market, she knew it was perfect for us. She even went out of her way to help me with the listing on my house in another state, which facilitated its sale! Her dedication and follow through are unparalleled, even after you close on your house she is there for you! You couldn’t be in better hands and I highly recommend Linda for all your real estate needs! She will be the first call I make should I have to move again! Thank you Linda!
~Shonna and Hunter
We moved to COS in the middle of an insanely difficult housing market for buyers. Linda Lafferty of the Platinum Group was our realtor. We couldn’t
have been more satisfied with the process. While the process of home buying was much more difficult than we had imagined, based on the levels of
competitiveness, Linda gave us excellent guidance. Her knowledge, patience, and guidance landed us into a beautiful home that we love in a wonderful neighborhood. She is very detail oriented, with great communication skills, making the process go smoothly.
Linda will definitely be our realtor if needed in the future. I highly recommend her to any prospective buyers and sellers.
~Brent and Lisa Harris
Linda,
Thank you for all your hard work. guidance and expertise. We are very grateful to have you by our side once again during the process! Working with you provided calmness during a stressful time, as we always knew you had our best interest at heart and are incredibly dedicated to your work!
We really appreciate everything you did for us!
~Monica, Jeremy and Lacey
Linda Lafferty delivered as promised and have made selling our home easy! Linda is by far the best Realtor we have dealt with and made sure everything went well and was taken care of in a timely manner. The process was a breeze with Linda and we were always informed. We would love to work with you again. We can’t thank you enough!
~Malcom and Kathleen
We came to know Linda as a result of a corporate relocation that moved us to Colorado Springs in 2014. Even then we were aware that our time there would be limited to 3-4 years after which the company would likely move us again. After interviewing several Agents there was no doubt that we wanted to work with Linda in our search for a home. Knowing that our time in Colorado Springs was likely to last only a few years a primary request we had for her was to find us a house that she would be able to quickly sell a few years down the road. The depth of her knowledge regarding the Colorado Springs area is unparalleled and ultimately resulted in our finding a house. As we were new to the area we also had many questions regarding the city. She was able to answer all of our questions and guide us in the best direction regardless of what we were looking for at the time.
As expected my company asked us to relocate earlier this year. We immediately contacted Linda and asked her to represent us during the sale of our house. In preparing the house for sale there were a couple of items we wanted to have repaired. Linda was there to give us potential options of people to take care of the items. In less than a month and a half she had sold the house for significantly more that our purchase price. We readily give the credit for that to Linda.
That house was the fourth that we have bought and sold over the last 20 years I we can say without any reservation that Linda was far and away the best Agent we have ever had. We would not hesitate to recommend Linda to anyone moving into or leaving the area. We could talk all day about her professionalism and knowledge but it has been her friendship, honesty, and caring attitude that will ensure that we never forget her.
~The Appleman’s
There’s only one realtor in our book — Linda is THE BEST!
I first met Linda in 2005 when I was in the process of relocating to Colorado Springs. She was referred to me by a fellow co-worker. The first time I met her, I was very impressed by her knowledge of the Colorado Springs housing market, her professionalism in setting realistic expectations with me, and her ability to explain the complex world of real estate to me in terms I could easily understand (contracts, mortgage process, inspections, timelines, etc.). On my two trips to Colorado Springs, she introduced me to the area, showed me around town, and worked hard to find me townhouses that met my requirements. She was committed to my tight timelines and, by golly, she found the townhouse of my dreams!! It was perfect! Linda totally took care of organizing everything and made the home buying process super easy for me from 1400 miles away. Then, from the time I closed until I actually moved out to Colorado Springs and my beautiful new townhouse, she went above and beyond her duties as my realtor; she visited the townhouse weekly to check on it and sent me reports that everything was OK, she recommended cleaning services and let folks into the house to perform those services so it was in tip-top shape and ready for me to move in when I arrived.
Several years later, Linda helped with the sale of my perfect townhouse and the purchase of my first home with my new husband. 🙂 She worked with us to set realistic expectations for the sale of the townhouse and for the new house we were purchasing together. It was reassuring to have Linda helping us every step of the way. She led us through the process of setting the selling price, staging the home, and creating the marketing materials. My townhouse sold very quickly. Linda also showed us houses on the market that met our new requirements. She did it again! She found us the perfect house! After five years, we decided to remodel the kitchen and living room and add a great room. Linda referred the contractor and came to the house to help make suggestions. We loved living in that the house for over a decade.
We recently fell in love with a model home that wasn’t on the market. We again called the best realtor in Colorado Springs, Linda Lafferty, to see if there was any way we could make this house our home. She worked with us and negotiated with the builder’s agent to make our dream come true. Once again, Linda helped set the price, stage, and sell our existing house (note: we sold above asking price and were under contract in less than 24 hours from the time we put the house on the market). We just moved into our gorgeous forever home, and we couldn’t be happier.
Linda has been our professional realtor for over a decade and has helped us with buying and selling multiple homes. She is simply phenomenal to work with. She has excellent organizational skills, fantastic people skills, and she goes the extra mile to ensure her clients are informed and well taken care of. There’s only one realtor in our book — Linda really is THE BEST!!
~Regards, Jill and Rick Manley
Linda’s patience, integrity, experience, and knowledge in the Real Estate market is unsurpassed. My family has personally worked with Linda on the sell and purchase of several of our homes, and we wouldn’t dream of using anyone else. Her integrity is unmatched, and to me, this is the number one quality I look for when looking for a realtor to guide me in this ever-changing market. Buying or selling a home can be an emotional process, and Linda’s understanding of the entire process, makes the experience smooth and less overwhelming. She will always be my real estate expert, guide, and go-to person.
~Carrie
Linda was the best realtor we could have had for the purchase of a home here in Colorado Springs. From a business sense she proved her depth of experience and knowledge as we combed the market for what we needed now and as a future investment. Additionally, from a personal aspect she was a joy to work with as she was extremely responsive to after hour phone calls, emails and texts. There’s no doubt that in the future we will refer all our friends and family to Linda. Thank you Linda for making our buying experience SO easy and positive!
-Hudson and Chelsea Graham
We can’t thank Linda enough for her guidance and support during our relocation to the Springs from Virginia. Throughout the whole process, Linda provided us with detailed information, recommendations, and critical insider-knowledge of the area. With a newborn in the house, only my husband was able to make the trip out to Colorado to search for our new home. Linda spent the day with him (and me, via Facetime) taking us to various homes, asking questions (that we wouldn’t have known to ask!), and providing helpful hints and information to ensure we were fully informed before making our decision. We would certainly recommend Linda to anyone looking for a realtor, as her kindness, knowledge, and positive attitude made our home buying experience smooth and easy!
~The Sealock’s
We can’t thank Linda enough for her superior attention to detail and customer service. She was with us every step of the way, making sure all transactions went smoothly. She took great care to ensure we were informed and supported throughout our relocation, including orientation to the community. After moving five times in the past, we can say with confidence Linda’s professionalism and experience are second to none. She was far more than a realtor to us.
~The Ladd Family
Hi Linda, Rick and I were talking the other day and we both agreed that we think that the only reason we got that house is because we had you as an agent! So I am not sure if I said this before so I want to make sure you know that we are very very appreciative of all you did for us! I think you showing up early like you did made all the difference and I think your reputation and just your overall wonderfulness made the whole thing so successful! So thank you very very very much! We are so happy about it!

We would absolutely recommend Linda Lafferty to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. This is the fourth time we have worked with her. Linda was an absolute pleasure to work with and made to process of selling our old home and buying our new home painless. Her knowledge of the industry and attention to detail made for a smooth process. We highly recommend Linda to anyone looking for an exemplary realtor who will take all the work out of buying and selling a home and turn it into an exciting experience.
-Nick and Jennifer
When I made to decision to relocate to the Springs one of my biggest concerns was finding a new home. I was introduced to Linda via a mutual acquaintance.
I met with Linda and was immediately impressed with her. She has been outstanding! She not only helped me to find a new home, she provided valuable information about the local community.
Linda has been amazing throughout the entire process. I appreciated her promptness responding to my numerous questions.
If you need a compassionate top notch realtor, Linda is the ONE!
~Marvin Antle
Linda Lafferty is the best! Her knowledge and professionalism take most of the stress out of buying a home. She has extensive experience in the Colorado Spring housing market and is very sensitive to your needs. Linda is a total professional and shows extreme attention to detail. She’s very patient and a pleasure to work with. She’s been my realtor for several sales and purchases and that will not change. You will not be disappointed.
~Ernest Aguilar
“The best realtor in town! Linda did an outstanding job handling the sale of our house. Doing her research, finding a great listing price, preparing the home to go on the market, and finalizing the closing, Linda always knew the answer. Linda truly went above and beyond what I would have ever expected of a realtor. My husband had already left state, leaving me alone to get the house on the market, not knowing what I would do. Linda guided me through the whole process. The house went on the market on a Monday morning, and with her preparations, we already had two offers by earlyWednesday morning! By the following Tuesday, I had moved out, joining my husband across the country. With us living out of state, Linda handled a lot of extra work. She dealt with the home inspection and arranged for contractors to fix the home. She even picked up our packages and sent them to us! I recommend her highly to anyone selling a home. Good job and thanks Linda! I don’t think anyone could have done it better!” ~Wendy Norman~
Approximately 15 years ago, Linda helped my mom and I find our first home in Colorado Springs. It was a special time for us because my mom had just gotten divorced and it was our first time on our own, but Linda made the process as easy as possible for us. Linda took care of items that we would never know to track and made sure that we were covered in every aspect of the purchase.
We have since sold and purchased homes through Linda and have been blown away by her consistent excellence each time. Fast forward to the present, my husband and I fell in love with a new model home and stumbled upon a very desirable plot at a new development. The situation was so perfect that we signed a contingency on the new lot for selling our old home in a short period of time. We immediately contacted Linda with the challenge of selling our house in a market where most homes in our street were for sale and within enough time to keep a very desirable lot with the new builder. We were allowed three months in our contingency but Linda sold our house in only one week. Linda’s assessment of the current market caused her to price our house so perfectly that profit exceeded our expectation and the buyer agreed to our sales price without negotiation. Linda assisted us with staging the home for the sale and taking care of any issues that could come up during inspection. Linda’s guidance through the process made the sale of our home hassle free.
The build process for the new home was different than anything we had experienced in the past and having her on our corner made my husband and I feel comfortable and secure. Linda guided us through the right questions to ask, the most relevant upgrades for the home, tracking paperwork, inspections, deadlines, and every little detail that we would never know to address. We were warned by friends who had built new homes of issues that were common with new builds, but due to Linda’s diligence and guidance we have recently moved into our beautiful dream home without facing any of those issues.
Linda’s service goes so far above expectations that she has scheduled time to walk through the home with us during our 1 year inspection to make sure that we catch any issues we might overlook due to familiarity. We have referred Linda to friends who have told us that they are “keeping her for themselves” because they were so impressed with the level of service that she provides. Linda is always available and present; she is so knowledgeable and attends to the process with so much diligence and going so far above expectations that it really sets her apart. Linda has both our loyalty as customers as well as our friendship. We feel truly blessed to have Linda in our lives; not only is she an amazing realtor but an amazing person. ~Brandon and Wynne Christen
Linda has been an awesome Realtor to work with, your upbeat personality, your smile, has been a ray of sunshine in an otherwise stressful time.
Now—- It’s hard to believe my home has sold, and I am now looking forward to the next chapter of my life.
Your very resourceful, I can ask you anything and you will provide the much needed answer, if you don’t know you will check and let me know.
You have connected me to the “right people” painter’s, plumber, client’s in need of things I can’t use, locksmith, and Two Men And A Truck.
Always on time for appointments, going to Home Depot for me to get a mat to put under my washer as recommended by Inspector, you go “The Extra Mile That Is Seldom Crowded”.
I feel like I have always been treated as if I were your only Client, and now friend.
I thank you for all that you have done this experience has truly been a lovely one.
-Carol
Linda Lafferty takes the terms professionalism, courtesy, and client satisfaction and redefines them. She doesn’t just go the extra mile, she goes to whatever length necessary to make sure you are fully informed and that everything is completed timely and in as smooth a fashion as possible. As first time home buyers we had numerous questions and Linda took the time to fully explain everything to us and also made sure to bring up and explain things we needed to know that we were not even aware of. From our very first meeting I knew Linda had not only the expertise but also the friendly demeanor we needed in a realtor and she still blew every expectation we had out of the water.
Of course the house we fell in love with had many surprises in store for us during the closing process. However Linda was right there beside us and fought every inch of the way to make sure our investment was protected and that everything that needed to be addressed was taken care of. Without Linda I believe we would have lost our dream home but thanks to her efforts that was not the case. It was both a comfort and a blessing to have Linda as our realtor. She truly does care about her clients, and their needs, and that makes all the difference.
If you are looking for a realtor, you found her. With Linda as your realtor you can rest easy in the knowledge that you made the right choice and that you could not be in better hands.
-Maegan
As a young couple with a baby on the way, we were expecting realtors to speak down to us and treat us like children. Working with Linda Lafferty was undoubtedly the opposite, and a genuine pleasure. Linda is a professional in every sense of the word. She fought tenaciously for what was best for us. Though we were first-time home-buyers, she was happy to answer our many, basic questions, and she was always available for contact. Even when we were pressed for time, Linda was able to lead us skillfully and quickly through the process, even through the sometimes unavoidable bumps that can arise. We were never in doubt that Linda had our best interests at heart, and we would happily recommend her to family and friends alike.
Taylor and Leah Lopez
My experience of working with Linda Lafferty has been excellent! I have worked with Linda on four transactions and her expert advice has been invaluable. Linda goes above and beyond just being a Realtor. She really cares about her clients and was always there when I had a question. The amount of time and effort she put into having beautiful professional photos and marketing of my homes was amazing. I highly recommend to anyone whom is looking for a top notch professional to call Linda. She’ll be right there to help you. Thank you Linda for all your help! Lorraine
We are beyond satisfied with Linda’s services helping us acquire our forever home. Linda is phenomenal at everything she does! Linda provides first-rate, professional, knowledgeable, and honest real estate services. We were referred to Linda by a couple of our friends (independent of each other) and were told she is the best. We have not been disappointed at all. We are brand new to Colorado Springs and she helped us in all sorts of ways with her knowledge of the area. It is so important to have an honest and super personable realtor on your team when house hunting (or selling). Linda is very accommodating to your needs, works nonstop, and will protect your interests with her vast professional knowledge. It is clear that Linda has a high level of business integrity and will make sure that her clients are fully satisfied. We have zero complaints and only high praises! We definitely highly recommend Linda!
– The Krause Family
“Linda was a true champion for me during the negotiation process. My purchase wasn’t any easy one. During the whole process, Linda provided great expertise on the home inspection and mortgage lender and made sure I was moving through the steps properly. As a first time home buyer, I felt very well informed. During the entire time Linda kept my best interest in mind and worked for me to ensure that I got the best deal possible, even if that meant having to walk away. I’m glad in the end we didn’t have to! I love my new home!” Delia
Linda,
Thank you so much sharing your expertise and helping us sell our house and
buy our townhome. Frank and I highly benefited in both transactions. Our
house sold for more than I thought it ever would and in a very short period
of time without any hang ups. Your innovative thinking solved the problem
of the assessment loss issue that came about during the purchase of our
townhome. During the whole selling and buying process, you were always very
professional, respectful of all parties, organized, thorough and efficient;
making the transition as painless as possible for Frank and me.
I really appreciate the fact that you are staying on top of the townhouse
loss assessment transaction and tracking its progress and hopefully,
conclusion. It’s comforting to know that Frank and I still have your
support and availability if needed.
Thank you, Linda, for making the selling of our house and the purchase of
our townhome so successful. And thank you for your continued support and
service.
Sincerely,
Judy Kink
We would definitely recommend Linda Lafferty of the Platinum Group!
We met Linda in 2004, she was assigned to us through my employers relocation department to assist us in finding a home here in Colorado Springs. From the moment we met she made us feel welcome and important to her! She worked diligently to help us find the perfect home, and after 2 short months Linda found us a beautiful home in the Briargate area. She worked hard to make sure all our questions were answered quickly and accurately and that no stone was left unturned, she knew that relocating across the country was stressful and did whatever she could to keep the process smooth. We were so happy she was our realtor! Now here it is 12 years later and we are now relocating back to our home state, who else would we call, but the best realtor in CO! Linda worked with us to set the price of our home and to get it ready to put on the market. Once we did, the house sold in 9 days! We were thrilled, and scared as everything is happening at a very fast pace, but Linda knows how to take the worry out of any situation and handles anything we throw her way!!! Thank you for everything you’ve done!!! We will definitely miss you!
–Kevin and Julie
My husband and I could not have chosen an agent that better met our needs than Linda Lafferty with The Platinum Group Realtors. We were so impressed with Linda’s professionalism, hard work, flexibility, patience, knowledge of the real estate market and overall enthusiasm. She provided great guidance/advice in finding the right home for our family. She always pointed out things with each home – both good and bad. Linda was so friendly, attentive to our needs and made us feel at ease with the whole home buying process – never pushy and always with our best interests in mind. Communication is key when buying a house and Linda was always there for us. She was very thorough and always available to answer our questions quickly! When Linda was taking a short, well-deserved vacation, she made sure that we knew that she would be available via email “as if she were in the office” and not to hesitate to contact her with any questions or concerns. Sometimes we felt as if we were her only client! We highly recommend Linda to anyone who is buying or selling their home in the Colorado Springs area. Thanks for everything Linda!
-The Whallons
Linda is by far the most professional, thorough and efficient Realtor I have ever worked with. I can’t see having a more positive rewarding working relationship with anyone in Real Estate. You can count on her to listen, prepare and guide you into the right home for your needs and desires. I had very limited time in the local area, high standards and strict requirements. Linda made the most of our time together and from our first meeting I knew I could trust her. Even after closing, she continued to take care of me and follow up on the details. Her network of professionals in the business are impeccable and her knowledge of the Colorado Springs market is second to none! She got me into the perfect home that I know will be enjoyable for many years.

Geez where to start? This is the fourth property Linda has helped our family buy and sell in Colorado Springs over the last 16 years. This sale of our house has been a journey. I was transferred from Colorado Springs to Fenton, Michigan on short notice. Linda was able to sell our house in five days, we had a signed contract and we signed a contract to purchase a new house in Michigan. The day we signed the contract in Michigan the buyer of the house in Colorado backed out. Needless to say I was very upset, but Linda kept calm and composed, focusing our energy on getting the house back on the market. The house sold again on the 31st of March. Yes, that is correct Linda sold our house two times in less than 30 days. She coordinated numerous contractors, installers and deliveries while continuing to show the house. This is while my family and I were residing in Michigan. While I don’t believe that most people will need this much help in selling a property she has been a rock solid partner in this transaction. She has even helped us with questions concerning the purchase of our Michigan property.
I have no idea how we would have completed this task without Linda’s help. All of the certifications Linda has on her business card are impressive and well earned, but I would add a few more:
-Expert, Patient, Knowledgeable, Kind, Professional, Strategic Partner and Hard Working.
Her tag line is The Extra Mile is Seldom Crowed which describes her dedication and commitment to her clients. She is simply the BEST real estate agent in Colorado Springs.
Thank you Linda, we love you.
The Egelhoff’s
We wanted to take a moment to thank Linda Lafferty of the Platinum Group for the incredible amount of time, energy and effort she put into helping us buy a home in the Colorado Springs area. She always made herself available when we needed her, despite our erratic schedule. She was willing to roam far and wide with us over several months looking for homes She always treated us as if we were her most important clients, though we certainly weren’t. And when we finally found the “perfect place” she put in extra effort over and over again–effort that cost her much extra work and time–to ensure that our interests were always covered…even in several cases when we didn’t think it mattered. On several occasions it turned out later that it mattered very much, which we couldn’t and wouldn’t have known, and her extra effort had protected us from making costly mistakes. She is extremely experienced, fun to work with, extraordinarily knowledgeable about the area, and professional to the highest degree. She also has an incredible resources of people to turn to for anything that might be needed when the house is actually purchased. Thanks Linda! We couldn’t have hoped for a better realtor! Or a better person!
Mike and Marlyce.
Linda’s extensive knowledge of the housing market is unparalleled. From her advice on the right listing price, to her honest approach on accepting an offer, she is a real pleasure to work with. A hardworking straight shooter, whom I would recommend to anyone buying or selling their home. Thanks Linda! Adam
Linda is a very diligent and thoughtful professional who is committed to make sure that you get the right house for you. She worked with us for 6 months to find the right house and neighborhood. Her extensive experience in the area and advise taught us how to look at a house for issues that we would have never thought to look for. These included how to look at the house’s foundation, the type of water lines, windows, and more. She always showed up with pertinent information on the property. When we showed interest in the house, she would pull a soils report to look at the probability of further settling or flooding issues. She was always forthcoming with guidance on the different neighborhoods that best fit our parameters and which areas had the best resale potential. Overall, I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a great Realtor and I will use her again if we need to buy or sell another house. Brian and Cindy
I greatly appreciated how easy you made everything, from staging to photos to electronic contracts. I have no doubt that the work you put in not only sold the home fast but also for above asking. Communications were always timely and direct. I felt involved in the process and knew what was coming next. I would definitely recommend you to anyone in the area looking for a great agent! Matt
My wife, Sonja and I took on the task of helping a family member move to California to join other family members. Part of our task beyond the packing and moving process was to arrange for the sale of her home in Colorado Springs. After contacting friends here that own London Properties, a large residential realty company in Fresno, California we were referred to Linda Lafferty with Platinum Group Realtors.
>Linda has proven to be much more helpful than we could have imagined. The challenges that we faced with selling a home from long distance proved to be not nearly as difficult as we had anticipated thanks to Linda. With Linda’s guidance and helpful suggestions we were able to work through what very well could have been a stressful sale process. We faced several unanticipated hurdles while preparing to get the home to the market. Some Realtors may have found it much easier to abandon the process and move on to an “easier sale” but Linda offered her help working through those challenges and on to a successful sale of the home. Linda was very thorough and patient in explaining the process of selling the home and helping us through the preparation of the home for sale, pricing the home and working with the multiple offers that we received for the home. Linda has also remained in close communication throughout the listing and sale period. I have received numerous helpful updates from Linda on the status of the sale process as well as friendly reminders of things that I need to provide to prevent any delays. Both of my parents were Realtors as was my wife so we have experienced the trials and challenges of real estate transactions from both sides. Our experience with Linda left no doubt that we would gladly refer anyone to her if they need a Realtor in the Colorado Springs area. Sincerely, Carson and Sonja
“Robert and I think the world of Linda. She is an awesome, caring realtor who wants the best for her clients. She has great knowledge and is so personable it was nice working with her. She assisted us with our many needs and wants with great respect to us. We would highly recommend her to anyone! She is a professional!!!” ~ Susan Pettis
We would highly recommend Linda to be your Realtor. She listens to your needs and delivers 100% EVERY time. She is a tireless worker who only has her clients happiness to find their ultimate home at her center core. She is very professional, punctual, very accommodating and will strive to do the VERY best for you! We were very happy with the communication and no problem, or idea was too small or insignificant! She really deserves the title of Realtor of Every Year and is a pleasant, funny joy to work with. Her sense of humor and fun and her dedication, passion and commitment to you shines through in every way. Linda is A definite keeper on speed dial! We look forward to perhaps working with her in the future, but not for a long time I hope!! ;-))) Long may her reign as Queen of Real Estate continue, she surely deserves the title. ~ Kind Regards, Ros Dubourdieu “
Linda has been outstanding and professional realtor from the first time we met with her. We ended up finding our home quickly and Linda was invaluable throughout the entire process. She brought things to our attention that we otherwise may have missed, and made sure the entire process went as smooth as possible. We had many questions throughout the process and her email responses were always timely. We would highly recommend her to anybody interested in a knowledgeable, friendly and responsive realtor. ~ Mike & Janna Haas
Hi Linda,
I wanted to express our appreciation for your recent services regarding selling our home. You were recommended to us for your ingenuity and smart marketing tactics. My husband and I were both impressed with your marketing tactics from the beginning. I also appreciate your responsiveness to all communications and availability either by phone, email or text. you promptly responded to any and all inquiries from us. Of course, I’m most satisfied that we received a fair offer within 6 weeks, with 4-6 weekly showings. Your office was very efficient with scheduling, and we never had a conflict for lack of communication. We closed on our home recently, without incident. Thank you for guiding us through all the necessary steps, and for selling our home in a neighborhood where home sales have been slow for years! We will definitely recommend you when we have the opportunity. ~ Pat & Rob
Yes Virginia – there really is a difference when it comes to real estate agents! We discovered Linda Lafferty from friend’s recommendation and experienced a whole new level of service. After many real estate transactions over the years – my wife and I felt a general mistrust of real estate agents and what they could do for us. However, Linda challenged this notion. She was energized, proactive, explored new options and aggressively sought potential customers for our home. Visits increased 600% with her help and we were very pleased with the results! Highly recommended! ~ Rob and Heide
We would highly recommend Linda Lafferty to anyone who needs a realtor. She was always professional and communicated every detail. She was straight forward and honest about what we could sell our house for and excited for us when looking for a new home. This was a very positive experience for such a stressful time. Linda is not just a realtor she is a friend. ~ Mike and Sarah Campos
When I decided to move to Colorado Springs from Cape Cod, my daughter Melissa referred me to Linda Lafferty to represent me as a buyer’s agent. Even though my condominium purchase was relatively small, Linda treated me as if I was purchasing a million dollar property. Her professionalism and attention to detail on the real estate contract were phenomenal. I would not hesitate to refer her, or to hire her again to represent me on either side of a real estate transaction. ~ Darlene
Linda Lafferty was referred to me in 2007 when I decided to sell my home in Black Forest. She has been my agent on five real estate transactions since. Her prudent, candid advice and recommendations regarding market value, inspections, and repairs have saved me tens of thousands of dollars over the years. I would humbly smile and nod if she ever said, “I told you so,” about any of those recommendations! There are few individuals with the level of commitment it requires to deliver the impeccable service and care she has given me. She is thorough, timely, and accountable. I have never held more trust or regard in a professional than I do for Linda Lafferty! ~ Layne
Linda did a wonderful job in guiding me through the process and working to find me the house that met my needs. She was flexible in meeting with me when one of us found a house to look at and then guided me through the entire buying process.
Even when I couldn’t meet with her in person to sign paperwork to put in the offer, we were able to handle it all electronically (even though I was in a hotel out of town!)
Thank you Linda, for all the assistance, patience and guidance in helping me find a great home! I will definitely look you up if/when I move again and will be happy to refer my friends and family to you.
Thanks for everything, Linda. ~ Kelly, Toby, Ellie & Timo
Linda was recommended to us by a couple of my co-workers and they had nothing but good things to say. I had never lived in Colorado so was looking for an agent with a good knowledge of the area. I’m glad I chose Linda. She was very honest with me about locations and home values. We really appreciated her experience and honesty and believe that is the reason we ended up getting the house that was perfect for our family. We truly enjoyed working with Linda and would definitely recommend her to others! ~ Steven and Holly McCullough
Our family was relocated to Colorado Springs two years ago. For no profit of her own, Linda Lafferty helped us search and secure a rental home during the Waldo Canyon fire without us having to even visit the city in person. When it came time to purchase a home, there was only one choice for our realtor needs. Linda knows the unique qualities of every neighborhood, and does a phenomenal job helping you search for a home that meets your needs with your budget and investment protection in mind. Linda made the negotiation and buying process as seamless as possible, and when it comes to negotiation you definitely want her on your side. Lastly, Linda goes above and beyond our expectations and experiences with other realtors. She verifies every detail, such as permits and inspections on previous improvements done to your potential new home and even helped us find moving boxes and a new lawnmower. I could not recommend Linda more highly. ~ The Dunn Family
During our relocation from Pennsylvania, we have been working with Linda to purchase a home in Colorado Springs. Throughout this process Linda has provided an amazing array of services tailored to our specific needs, including advice on a broad range of relocation topics, remote home walkthroughs, and suggestions for temporary housing. Even though we were 1600 miles away for much of this process, we have felt involved and connected the entire time. All of this has been in addition to expert advice and management concerning the offer, contract, inspection, appraisal and closing processes associated with purchasing a home. Linda is extremely well organized in all aspects, including appointments, documentation and anticipating upcoming steps in the purchasing process, and perhaps most importantly, has always been available via phone, e-mail or text to promptly answer our questions or direct us to appropriate resources. It has been a relief to have a realtor we can trust with every step of this process, and it has literally been a joy to work with her. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to relocate and purchase a home in Colorado Springs. ~ Mark and Ann
Several years ago Linda helped me relocate to Colorado Springs and found the perfect home for me. When I decided to buy an investment property I contacted Linda. I knew that even though it was a small deal and very little commission she would work as if it were a million dollar house that I was buying! Thank you for all your hard work and diligence. ~Cheryl
As a first time homebuyer, I was very reluctant to begin the process of purchasing a home, mostly due to the real estate “horror” stories I heard over the years. Linda Lafferty completely erased that fear and hesitation from the moment we met. Her confidence and competence allowed me to actually enjoy the home buying process. My husband and I had complete faith in Linda throughout our time working together, and greatly appreciated her constant communication and consistency. We are expecting our first child and could not have found the home that we will start our family in without Linda’s professionalism, dedication, and enthusiasm. We definitely recommend Linda as a real estate agent for anyone looking not only for a home, but a genuinely refreshing and positive home buying experience. ~ Casey & Sara
Working with Linda was a great experience, she’s friendly, professional, and has a great attitude. Linda is the most knowledgeable real estate professional I’ve ever met. Her unique combination of expertise and genuine caring made both selling and buying a new home an absolute pleasure. I recommend her (and do) without hesitation to anyone in need of a realtor. ~ Jennifer Achey
We have felt so blessed to have Linda as our realtor during this recent process of moving to another state. We had to sell our home quickly and move within a month and a half and Linda had absolutely no problem with that timeline. This home had been our first home so we were very cautious–she took the time to answer every last question and kept us up to speed on every aspect of the process. This could have been such a stressful time for us but Linda continually reassured us and thankfully (and amazingly!) got our home sold in 17 days. We were able to move with the peace of mind knowing Linda would be watching over our home before our closing. We never doubted her for one minute (and that means a lot coming from a type A personality) and although we now live in another state, we will always refer her to friends and family in Colorado Springs! Linda, through her amazing realtor abilities, made this whole process so simple and we are truly thankful! She is exceptional and absolutely one of the top realtors in the Springs. And above all, she is so kind and thoughtful as well! Cream of the Crop! ~ Sincerely, The Thompson Family
My husband and I used Linda to help us buy our first home and we are forever grateful that we chose to use her as our Realtor. Linda was patient with us and listened to our wants and needs. Linda made the overwhelming process of buying our first home seem easy and worry free. Linda is well connected to other Realtors and well known in the community, which helped us to find our perfect home the first day that it was placed on the market. We would highly recommended Linda to anyone buying or selling a home!Thanks again Linda for all the work you did with us, we really appreciate it!~ Ashley and Greg
Linda, thank you so much for all of the hard work that you put in to finding us our beautiful home. You were the picture of patience, understanding, and genuine care throughout this whole process. I know that I gave you a challenge due to the fact that we were moving in from out of state and only had 5 days to spend in person with you. The professionalism and knowledge that you showed helped make this process smooth and even fun. Knowing how picky and detail oriented I am can sometimes make it difficult to help me get exactly what I am looking for. You were able to find us our perfect home, help us overcome all obstacles, make us feel welcome in a new state, and did it all with a smile and cheerful can do attitude. You are amazing and we are so thankful to have had the opportunity to know you and work with you. You rock Linda!! ~ Jenny
Having Linda by our side enabled us to find the house we wanted. She was extremely knowledgeable about the homes, neighborhoods, and pricing. She was professional, friendly, and enjoyable to be with. Not only did she scour the listings to find us our new home, she also took the time to familiarize us with the surrounding areas. With Linda’s business savvy, attention to detail, and proclivity to work hard for you, you’ll be confident that you obtained the right house for the right price. ~ Blaine and Katelyn
Being first time home buyers, we were a little intimidated searching for our home. Luckily we found comfort in working with Linda and she guided us and made us knowledgeable of the things we should be looking at in a home.
Thanks Linda for your professionalism, knowledge of the market, and most of all for your guidance in a very big time in our family’s life. You’re the BEST of the BEST! ~ Jeremy and Monica
This is our ninth house we’ve bought since we have been married, 50 years, and this has been by far the best experience we’ve had in buying or selling a house and it’s because of your genuine interest in treating us fairly and your professionalism. You were in touch with us explaining each step in the process, from signing the sales contract through the closing. We’ve never had a broker do this so thoroughly. ~ Rick and Joy
Unlike some realtors who we have worked with in the past, we never felt pressured to make a decision, and always felt Linda had our best interests in mind. Linda exuded professionalism as well as friendliness and courtesy in every aspect of our move. We greatly appreciated her tireless work ethic as well as her thorough knowledge of the real estate market in and around Colorado Springs In short I would highly recommend Linda. ~ Jeff and Lisa
Our past experiences with other real estate agents were good but none of them ever made us feel that we were as well taken care of or cared for, the way we were with Linda. I would definitely recommend her services especially if you want more than just someone that will show you some homes and collect a commission when it’s all over. My family and I feel privileged to work with someone of Linda Lafferty’s caliber and integrity. ~ Amy and Jay
Buying a house can be a really difficult and daunting task, or it can be an enjoyable and painless experience. Working with Linda is the latter, because she is highly respected by her peers and the community for her hard work, thoroughness and integrity. ~ Anthony
Linda really went the extra mile to help us find a great house and deal with all the other things that come up when buying a home. She gave us an overwhelming amount of time and personalized attention! Thanks! ~ Katie
We came to Linda by word of mouth. She is a professional. We found her to be direct, sharp, friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and she even understands Dutch humor. There were no delays in responses to our inquiries and we also got hooked up with a nice queried website with houses which met our criteria. Linda also has some quality connections to skilled people which were of help to us during our “house hunt”. Our previous realtor paled into nothingness compared to the advice and service Linda brought to the table. At this point we would not hesitate to call on her again if there was a need for similar services. ~ John and Charlsie
Linda’s professionalism yet caring personality throughout the entire process of buying our new home was reassuring. She went the extra mile and was the difference in us finding a home that we will live in for many years. We cannot speak enough praises for Linda; she is truly the best of the Springs. She is Grade A, double thumbs up, 5 Stars. We are repeat customers for Linda, and we highly recommend her. Thank you Linda! You Rock! – The Randall Family
What a pleasure it is working with Linda! We appreciate her attention to detail and taking the time to get to know us and our needs. She has taken such good care of us throughout the whole home buying process and is a knowledgeable, efficient, and effective realtor to have on your team!

Linda, Your professionalism, kindness & warm heart is what make you not only an outstanding Realtor but a beautiful person. We are so thankful, grateful, appreciative of your efforts to get us into out new home. – The Callahan’s.
Linda is a rare find now a days; she takes time to get to know her clients and their wants and needs and then goes out looking until the perfect home is found. She doesn’t stop there – she makes sure all the t’s are crossed and the i’s are dotted, that all the paper work is done properly, to all parties satisfaction. In this day when work is done quickly and expectations are not met you can set your sights and expectations high because Linda will meet and exceed them, much to your benefit and contentment. ~ Rita 2 x home-buyer/seller with Linda Lafferty

We have purchased many homes in our lifetimes and worked with several realtors. Still, at this stage of our lives, putting our life savings into what may be our last home was difficult. Fortunately, we found Linda Lafferty. We have never worked with a more competent, efficient, compassionate, patient (we could go on) realtor. She is in a class by herself. We were comfortable placing our total trust in her guidance and she took care of us every step of the way. Linda is a great realtor and a wonderful person. ~ Jerry and Myla

From the moment we met Linda we trusted her instantly knowing she had our best interest in mind.
