Lenda began her real estate career in the Cary area in 1994 when she moved from California with husband, Dave, who is also a member of her real estate team. Now, she has four sons, two of which followed her to the area along with the four grandchildren.
Her previous career in the travel industry greatly influenced her ability to sell lifestyles more than just houses alone. It’s her negotiating skills and professionalism that set her apart from the rest.
Her clients consistently comment on her ability to separate emotion from business to get the best value, both on the selling and buying sides. She is well connected to the Cary area and familiar with the ever changing needs of her clients.
Lenda has consistently been ranked in the top 25 real estate teams of the Triangle. As part of the LG Real Estate team, there are three additional members: Lee Ann Crowder, Office Manager and Danya McHugh, Listing Assistant and Dave Goulding, Business Manager; all are licensed real estate brokers.
In her spare time, Lenda serves as Treasurer for her neighborhood homeowners association, actively participates in local charities and enjoys spending time with her family. When it comes to family time, Lenda really loves playing cards and board games with her boys and their children and walking and doting on her adorable dog. And, did we mention shopping and travel? While online shopping is often a pleasure for shoes in particular, Lenda loves to hop on a plane and visit faraway places and immerse herself in the many cultures around the world.

I would like to thank Lenda and her team for the excellent job they did selling our place. From staging to showings they were the best. Selling your house is a difficult experience but with this team it made easy regardless of the challenges. Thank you Lenda, Dave, Lee Ann and Danya for making a difficult time a satisfying experience.
Lew RentelWe strongly endorse the entire team at LG Real Estate for their local market knowledge, professional ethics, responsiveness, and candor.
Yes, they tell the truth even if it might conflict with what you'd like to hear, based on the team's many years of experience and a strong philosophy to do the right thing. We have sold 6 homes in 5 different states and our experience with Lenda, Lee Ann, and Danya far surpassed all of our previous transactions. From devising a marketing plan, to thoughtful staging, leading negotiations specific to the offer, managing the inspection process, and seeing us through closing, they provided expert advice and empathetic support throughout.
