Allow me to introduce myself.

Lakewood is an incredibly vibrant suburb of Cleveland and I am proud to live here.

Hello everyone! My Name is Linda Rogers and I am a Lakewood resident and
Realtor. I have lived here for 3 years and I work for Russell Real Estate
Services at their Westlake Office. I come from a very rural town where I owned
a hobby farm showing dogs and horses. When a job opportunity presented itself
here on the lake, I didn't hesitate to come. I was ready for a big change and a
move was just the thing.

Living in the city of Lakewood and being so close to downtown Cleveland is
like being a kid in a candy store. I don't have to drive 45 minutes to get
somewhere. I can actually have pizza delivered, walk to a pub or restaurant or
drive 10 minutes to the theater district. It's so wonderful! Sometimes I miss
the country life but, after 3 years of fun, fun, fun, I will be staying right
here. I plan to really get involved in the Lakewood community. I'm excited to
see revitalization all around. I'm also excited about the possibilities for the
city of Cleveland in the near future. I find it so interesting and I want to be
part of it. The real estate market in this area is very dynamic and I want to
get others interested in it as well.

When I’m not being a Realtor or enjoying city life, I’m busy with my
greyhounds. I am an advocate for ex racing dogs and foster, rehabilitate and
rehome them. We are really lucky to have an organization like Northcoast
Greyhound Connection locally, not to mention other organizations world
wide.  I am so proud to work with them in the mission of helping these dogs get off the track and into loving homes.
