Linda Thornton Hillery
REALTOR RE/MAX PLUS 40410826596
I have enjoyed a professional real estate career for over 20 years. Throughout my career I have been extremely fortunate to connect families with the right home, establish lifelong friendships and build a strong referral-based business.
Buying or selling a home is one of the most significant transactions in the lives of most people. Our home is where we Live, Love, Laugh and Learn. Because of that, it is important that you work with a Realtor you trust and who is a market expert. My clients trust me with their most-valuable asset. It is a responsibility I take very seriously, knowing that your happiness is directly tied to my success. As a market expert, I am familiar with the neighborhoods, schools, market conditions, zoning regulations and the economy. I will do the leg work, keeping you up-to-date with new listings and conditions as they impact the market. I don’t measure my success through awards received or achievements, but through the satisfaction of my clients.
My desired result is to get my clients the best value and to ensure that the buying and selling process is seamless.
Some of my guiding principles that are important to a working relationship and a real estate transaction are:
• Personal Attention
• Communication
• Listening to your wants and needs
• Providing you continuing service before, during, and after the sale
• Developing an effective Marketing Plan
• Connecting you with my team of professionals
• Skilled Negotiation - getting you the best value for your home
Whether you are looking to buy or sell your home, I will provide sound and trustworthy advice to
help you achieve your real estate goals.
I have a passion for volunteering and helping in the community as well. Below are a few of the organizations I donate time to:
Alzheimers Association, Generation Two, Sisters at the Crossroads and Golisano Children's Hospital
Call me for all your real estate needs and experience my customer driven approach.

In this absolutely wild market Linda was constantly on top of things, very patient, and extraordinarily helpful. We were moving from out of state and she was willing to visit houses on our behalf, scope out areas, and do Facetime calls with us to show us the homes. I would highly recommend Linda for buying or selling!

Linda was extremely professional and honest, she created a marketing plan to aid in selling my property quickly. Her plan proved to be successful as my home was sold in three days with multiple offers. I would highly recommend Linda as a seller’s agent!

We sold our house on Elmdorf Avenue in the middle of December, not expecting that it would be easy, but Ms. Hillery did a great job and got our house sold quickly at a price higher than we expected. She's definitely an excellent realtor.

Linda is the BEST!!! We were very nervous starting this process and Linda eased our nerves with her knowledge of the process and warm reassurance she continually provided. Linda made this process seamless. Her years of experience provided us with the best outcome. I'm SO glad that Linda was our agent! If I could give 10 stars, Linda deserves them all. We LOVE her!

Linda was relatable from our first meeting, this was important bc it placed us at ease. I loved how she appreciated our anxiety and lack of knowledge of the ends & in outs of selling a house. She was calm, funny, extremely knowledgeable and honest. She let is know exactly what we needed to do from beginning to the end making our process smooth and without any stress or hiccups. Linda, is professional and my wife and I absolutely loved her, we thank God for Linda Hillery ??

My experience, interacting with Linda has been, from the beginning, very welcoming, educational and enjoyable. She is very knowledgeable as it pertains to all aspects of the business of buying and selling a home. Her knoweledge of home construction, zoning laws, financial considerations, just to name a few, are commendable, I feel she is a powerful asset to the real estate community..

As a first-time buyer who's also new to the area, I really appreciated Linda's incredible guidance and support. In the current market, homebuying can be a long and arduous process, so it's crucial to have an experienced and caring professional like Linda by your side.

We love Linda! As first-time homebuyers who tend to focus on details (some important and some not), we had lots of questions throughout the home buying process. Linda was patient and helpful in answering our questions. She was also very clear about what research we needed to do on our own so that we could be informed buyers.
Another great part that drew both my partner and I to Linda is her boundaries. So many people in the real estate industry told us that we could call them any time of the day, 7 days a week. Linda is one of the few agents that we talked to who gave us a clear idea about what time of day is too late to call or text her. Knowing that Linda is comfortable setting boundaries to respect her own life gave us confidence that she would also take into consideration our time and energy in the home search process.

I worked with Linda in buying my new home and selling my previous home. Linda actually made the home buying and selling process positive and stress-free, I couldn't have done it without her support and guidance during this crazy housing market! Not only is she a fantastic realtor, but she is a wonderful person and I will really miss working with her now that everything has wrapped up. I can't recommend Linda enough!!

Linda was amazing!! She was very straightforward and realistic from the beginning of our (short) experience looking for a home. Her communication was impeccable and we wouldn’t have gotten our amazing home without her advocacy! After just two rejected offers, Linda helped us get our cozy home. Highly recommend!

Linda was positive and professional throughout the whole house selling experience. Me Fret worry. Linda: Calm, clear "This is what we can do". I relaxed. I always ended up laughing and enjoying the experience when Linda was there or on the phone. The house sold in the middle of a snow storm. Proceeds were 67% OVER asking price!

Linda made our selling experience easy, efficient, and thorough. Linda has been in the real estate business for over 25 years and her vast knowledge was exactly what we were looking for. Right from the get go, Linda moved quickly to get our house listed with professional photos, and for sale signs on our property. Linda guided us through all the showings, right up to the final negotiations. Linda worked tirelessly to make sure we got the desired outcome. With Linda we got an awesome real estate agent, but also gained a new friend. Please call Linda today!

Linda was a wonderful counselor for us-both in purchasing our home and then later selling. She has deep knowledge of and experience with Rochester, but especially Brighton.
I’m sorry we’ve left the area otherwise, she’d have our business forever.

This was the fourth house sale in my life, and was by far the best experience. Linda was helpful at every point, very responsive to questions, and really made the whole process so easy that I am still amazed at how quick and effortless it was for me. She was also the realtor we used to buy our new (dream) house and amazed us by actually getting it for us, which we were afraid to hope for, in this crazy market. I give her my highest recommendation.

Whether you're buying or selling, Linda's expertise and energy is unparalleled.
She made my first home buying experience as positive as it could be. She took the time to talk to me about what I was looking for and educate me on the market. She was always responsive and quick to act when I saw something I liked. Linda helped me put together a competitive offer that landed me my new home.

I worked with Linda several times as buyer & seller. I count on her professionalism and personal attention to help me achieve my goals. I appreciate her openness and honesty in our dealings. She creates such a strong bond during the process that she becomes a part of my celebration when the deal closes. I've referred family and friends to Linda and will continue to do so. She puts the "real" in real estate.
