Real Estate is what I do and for over 30 years it has given me the humble satisfaction to know I was the reason hundreds of my clients were able to buy, many having to sell first, the dream home they never thought they would own.

As a second-generation Realtor®, I watched my dad go from building houses downstate to running a successful Real Estate Brokerage here in Northern Michigan. Though I didn’t get into the business as he hoped back then, I knew someday I would. I just needed to get my other dream profession out of my system and after going as far up the ladder as I could, I knew then I was ready.

Experience does matter. I had the best Brokers & mentors when I started Real Estate in the Atlanta, GA market. I took my business there to be one of the tops agents in the area, but I wasn’t into rankings, I was into taking care of those who put their trust in me to buy & sell Real Estate. I built my business on referrals and continue to do so today. My clients are my #1 Priority and I’ll go beyond the norm to get the results they are looking for. My goal being back in the city I grew up in was to bring that knowledge and expertise to my new clients, friends and family here. Wolff Properties was born from that goal, not to be big, but to be the best we can be in offering our services to anyone buying or selling anything Real Estate.

We look forward to making you a part of the Wolff family!

Linda Simpson

Realtor®

Linda 610-639-4771

Doesn’t seem like it but I’ve been a Realtor® for over 25 years. When I say it like that it makes me sound OLD. I’m really not OLD I just have a lot of experience at a lot of things.

I hold a Master’s degree in Psychology from the University of Michigan and grew up in the suburbs of Detroit. After college, I headed north to Petoskey, where I never looked back. My early career involved working at Juvenile Court and the Petoskey Police Department, followed by a role with Community Mental Health, covering four counties to place adults in excellent foster homes.

My passion for wine led me to study in Germany and France. Upon returning to Northern Michigan, I sold wine to top restaurants and even curated a personal wine cellar at home.

My real estate journey began in Traverse City before moving to Chester County, Pennsylvania, just outside Philadelphia, where I worked with the top agent in the area. Eventually, I returned to Traverse City, where my family and I now maintain two homes—one on the Upper Manistee River and another in Williamsburg.

Dogs have always been a significant part of my life, especially English Springer Spaniels, which I’ve bred, raised, and trained to compete in Field Trials. I’m proud to say that two of my dogs have qualified for Nationals and performed admirably. We’ve also rescued two German Shorthaired Pointers and discovered what a fantastic breed they are. Our Springer and Pointer get along wonderfully, as long as the Springer remains in charge!

In Petoskey, I played a key role in establishing the first Women’s Resource Center in Northern Michigan, where I served as President for many years. We started the area’s first Safe House, Resale Shop, and an innovative program offering free daycare to women in our Safe House who returned to school. This program also provided tuition support for those pursuing a GED or college education, and I’m proud to say it continues to thrive today.

Throughout my career, I’ve always been in the “people business,” which is why I believe I’m a successful Realtor®. It requires a great deal of skill to truly listen to others’ needs and work tirelessly to make their dreams a reality.

I am an Accredited Buyer’s Agent, a Resort and Second Property Specialist, a member of the Women’s Council of Realtors®, a Multi-Million Dollar Producer, and I have over 50 five-star reviews on Zillow.

And I still love what I do!

Traverse City has always felt like home to me. Although I moved away at age 15, I returned in 2016 and quickly rediscovered everything that makes Northern Michigan so special. Of all the places I have lived, I believe Traverse City is truly the most beautiful.

My career in real estate began in manufactured home sales, where I developed a strong foundation in helping buyers find homes that fit their needs, goals, and budgets. I was recognized twice as the top salesperson in the nation for company-owned properties. That experience inspired me to take the next step in my career and become a licensed REALTOR®.

Joining Wolff Properties has been one of the best professional decisions I have ever made, and I am proud to be part of a team that shares my commitment to integrity, personal service, and exceptional client care.

What I love most about real estate is helping people achieve something they may have always dreamed about – or perhaps never thought possible. Whether you are purchasing your first home, searching for the perfect place to begin your next chapter, or preparing to sell a property filled with memories, I will be there to guide you through every step.

My goal is to make your real estate experience as smooth, positive, and rewarding as possible. I listen carefully, communicate openly, and always place my clients’ best interests first.

Experience matters, and when I say that, I mean YOUR experience when it comes to buying or selling a home. Growing up in California and attending Victor Valley College while pursuing an athletic training degree, I saw the difference that having a great team around you can make. Thankfully, I joined the best team I could at Wolff Properties and started my journey into real estate.

I’m not only a newer member of the Wolff pack; I’m also a former client. My husband and I bought our home in Traverse City from Teri back in 2020. I enjoyed working with her so much during our house-hunting process that I decided to come work for her!

I am a mother of 2 teenagers who keep me busy with sports and music, but I also have a background in sales and marketing. That experience has allowed me to connect with a wide range of people and businesses. From Jim Beam and Ford, to spots only the locals would know about, I’ve helped them all.

As a former military spouse and expert on all things moving, I know exactly how challenging it can be to establish new roots. My husband and I have lived in 7 different states and were even stationed in Germany in our Army days. Whether you’re selling your home to start new adventures or are ready to call Traverse City home, I’m here to help do what’s best for you.

My goal is to take the mystery out of real estate and show you how to get the most out of your home buying and/or selling experience.

Services

New Construction

Our experience working with top builders will help you from the ground up in making sure all details of the process and expectations are in the contract from the start. We will assist with home design helping you keep in the allowances given for the best resale value. At every stage of the build process we will be there letting you know what to expect so nothing falls through the cracks. It is not a builder’s job to tell you what you need to know, so having someone who knows the process can save you not only stress, but thousands of dollars.

Home Improvement Consultant

Want to paint your house, update your kitchen, change flooring or update your light fixtures? Not sure whether to do stainless or other, tile/wood/vinyl flooring or brushed silver vs oiled brass fixtures? Your home is your bank account. If you know someday you will move, do you want to be the house that gets top dollar and sells or the one that sits on the market with continuous price reductions, because it’s “tired” from deferred maintenance and in need of updating? It’s ok if you want a purple living room but know when you go to sell you might have to change it to a more neutral color if you want a better price. This is where we come in. Our complimentary service will help with these decisions & refer contractors if needed to keep your homes value.

Staging Prior to Marketing

As a Certified Home Staging Expert, you benefit from the experience and results of maximizing the value of your home. Have you looked at homes online? Have you seen the ones with cluttered rooms, generations of pictures all over the wall, dishes in the sink, bathroom vanities with all their personal stuff? Unfortunately, you only remember the “stuff” and not one thing about the nice built-in bookcases, the beautiful hardwood floors and after that I’m sure you want to run out and see it, right? NOT! Getting a home “marketable” to sell can take a lot of work for some. You have a few seconds for a potential buyer looking at your home on-line, to want to look further at your home or move on. The moment you know you want to move we help you set up a game plan of what needs to be done. Can you imagine having to move out in 30 days when you have six months of cleaning out to do? With our services you receive up to 4 Hours in consulting and staging your home for FREE! That’s a $500 value. Moving is stressful enough, let us help you with some of that!

Relocating?

Moving to Northern Michigan? Need to know you have someone who has your family’s best interest in hand and who’s experienced in relocations? Look no further. We take care of all the details in getting you set up in your new home and make sure you have all the information for schools, businesses and any other important information you may need, so your transition to the area is as smooth as possible. Relocating out of State? As active members of the Women’s Council of Realtors®, we network nationally to hundreds of Realtors® that are the best in the business and we’ll find the right agent for you.
