Leolinda helped us to find the perfect home! She is very knowledgeable regarding the Grant community. She was also willing to show homes that were not her listings, but, whose flier we had picked up. She worked with the “other” realtor & homeowners to accommodate a viewing. We ended up buying one of those homes. If we are in the market for another home, we would use her again.

Adela C

A few years before I made the final decision to move to Arizona, Leolinda was kind enough to send me a large envelope full of information and maps of the area I was considering for retirement living. She was the only realtor that I contacted who responded knowing I was still a few years from retirement.

Leolinda set aside a week to help me find a home when I did retire. She was extremely helpful and often pointed out important information about a location that helped me make my final decision.

Leolinda was helpful to me before I was seriously considering a purchase, during my purchase and after my purchase. She knows the area and if I decide to purchase another home, she will be the first person I will contact.

Jim C

If you are planning to buy or sell in The Grand, Sun City West or Sun City Festival, you could not be better served than by choosing Leolinda Bowers as your real estate advocate. She is arguably the the most knowledgeable realtor in The Grand, and is becoming so in the other two Sun City communities. She has represented us in three purchases and two sales over the past 13 years, all with exceptionally positive results. In addition, her network of contractors (HVAC, roofing, inspection, cleaning, and many more) and mortgage companies is there to fulfill your every need. I mentioned the word advocate -- she will advise and guide you toward timely decisions and will fight to fulfill your highest expectations. And, of course, she is friendly, professional and trustworthy.

Leolinda Bowers was an excellent broker, helping sell our deceased parents' home in Sun City West. Her professionalism and compassion made it both a low-drama, and expeditious experience. As we were out-of-state sellers, she went out of her way to meet us whenever we were in town, explain and navigate Arizona real estate processes, provide timely updates, and assist in finding and coordinating the various service providers needed to prepare the house for sale and follow-through on all the pre-closing tasks.

She came highly recommended to us, and we are very glad she was our broker.

MARGARET GHOTBI
Moved to Sun City Grand, AZ. from California

"My mother is now settled in her new home in San Antonio and we are very thankful and appreciative of everything you did in helping to manage the sale of our old home.

From the day you put up the For Sale sign, you helped bring a steady stream of prospective buyers to look at out home, and within less than a month we had entered into a contract with our buyers(which is remarkable given a difficult market environment).

Your help on all the details, the inspection process, the follow up with our buyers' mortgage process, all led to a successful transaction from start to finish. We are so grateful for everything you did, from the business of the real estate transaction to the personal attention you gave during the process."

"PS. Feel free to use this letter or my mother and I as a reference as we wish you continued success!"

DOWNEY
Moved to Sun City Grand, AZ. from Texas

The reason for this letter is not only thank you for the help and advice in selling our three homes and purchasing our two homes, but to let you know that we are extremely happy with working with you through the process of buying, selling and moving. Your education has made our REVERSE 1031 exchange, personal home and investment property transactions result in prompt and efficient closings.

We are more than satisfied; we are ecstatic! Leolinda, we would like you to feel comfortable in using our name as a reference in the future. We will highly recommend you to anyone we know. At anytime please feel free to use our name, address and phone numbers. Should a person want to know about Leolinda Bowers and her pledge of satisfaction, please have them contact us. We will highly recommend you for their real estate needs."

TOM CLEARY
Sun City West, AZ

"This home is just perfect for us and we have you to thank for it. When we first met you we knew that you would find exactly what we wanted - and you did. You are very knowledgeable about the area and seemed to understand immediately what we were looking for. Even though it took us quite some time to settle for the home that we purchased you never tired of showing us the properties available in our price range and with the amenities we desired."

"You have the patience of an angel and were always prepared with a long list of homes, comparables etc. and your negotiating skills are excellent."

"The escrow period was a breeze, thanks to your experience and ability to get everything to "click" just right with regards to all the inspections and getting everyone to sign all documents in a timely manner."

"Your experience was very much appreciated and we will certainly be more than happy to recommend you to our friends and relatives - to anyone who is looking for a "super agent" to find them a home."

“We started making trips out to Arizona on the weekend hoping to find a home to purchase. You always made yourself available to us when we came to town to show us properties, write up offers or whatever else we needed from you.

You also kept in great communication with us letting us know about new listings, checking them out for us and making recommendations based upon what we told you we were looking for. You had all of your ducks in a row and swiftly navigated us through the escrow process without a hitch.

We were extremely impressed with your flexibility, your knowledge of Real Estate and your professionalism. We were completely happy with the experience that we had working with you.”

MIKE CALHOUN
Moved to Surprise, AZ from California

“Thank you for helping us find the perfect home to start this phase of our lives. You were such a joy to work with, Leolinda. Friends and colleagues had suggested realtors to consider working with but shortly after meeting you, I knew I’d met “our” realtor. Above all, you showed an interest in learning about us and what we wanted and needed in order to feel at home here.”

“Your customer service skills are the standard by which I measure the quality of other service providers. Your flexibility was so important to us. You made yourself available at times that met our needs. When I expressed my worries about little things to you, you took me seriously. You gathered and provided information or shared knowledge and insights to address my concerns rather than dismissing them. You showed a level of attention to detail that rivaled my own – that quality really helped me quit worrying!”

“When we decided to buy this house, you took care of all of the details of the offer and purchase. You communicated often and well. We were never left to wonder (and worry) about things – little or big. Wee never had to call you to follow-up on things because you always anticipated and met our needs.”

“Since closing, things have fallen into place nicely. I’ve gotten established in a great job recruiting for.... An important resource for a good recruiter is a friendly, professional, knowledgeable real estate professional. You are the first real estate professional I would recommend. I feel confident that you will handle any referrals I make to you in a way that reflect on" my employer "and me, as well as result in providing superior customer service to a prospective client/resident of the valley of the sun.” NOTE: EMPLOYER NAME HAS BEEN OMITTED FROM TESTIMONIAL STATEMENT.

In today's market it was important for us to have someone we could trust and provide us with the necessary tools to sell our home. From the first moment it was obvious to us that Leolinda was going to devote her energies and time in selling out home. It worked, in 13 days Leolinda had our home SOLD!
