“Both my mother and I have always wanted to pursue real estate, but it wasn’t until a ‘mid-life crisis’ jarred me into a new career path that we left our nursing careers and joined forces to pursue our dream of working and serving in the real estate world. We are both very different, which is great, because we complement each other very nicely. I love the dance between property and paper.

The short version:

The 8 min. story of how the Queendom was born:

Mom head shot DSLinda Hacker is gifted in working with the special needs of seniors (both mother and daughter are licensed RNs). Although they are focused on seller financing and real estate notes, Linda does a small amount of traditional real estate business for friends and family. She is a Certified Staging Consultant and has a tendency to roll up her sleeves and work right beside her clients every step of the way.

Linda has lived in Alhambra, California for several decades, and is heavily involved with charitable work in the community through her religious organization. She loves spending time in her garden, and planning camping trips with her 4 grown children and 12 grandchildren.
