Beginning with seasonal Lake Lanier residency in 2005, my family and I fell in love with the community and became full time Lake Lanier residents in 2008. I truly enjoy sharing my knowledge of this special place with my clients. Whether boating and enjoying the many lake activities with my family or hiking the beautiful North Georgia Mountains, there are numerous ways to experience this amazing lifestyle.
I’ve earned a reputation as a driven agent who gives her clients a smooth and stress-free home buying and selling experience. I understand that every client is different and will work tirelessly to help you achieve your real estate goals. I never lose sight of my client’s vision for their dream home. I look forward to helping you find yours!

Recent Client Testimonials for Linda Thompson:
- We were starting the process of placing our home on the market and the 1st realtors we met with was Sheila Davis & Linda Thompson of The Norton Group. They asked us a series of questions and then told us about themselves and The Norton Group. They were very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable about Lake Lanier homes and the US Army CORPS regulations. They brought various comps and we went through them all. There was no time frame. They were not rushed to get to another appointment. We felt very comfortable. We did the walk through and explained different parts of the home. Linda was taking thorough notes as we did the walk through. We went back to the table as we were interested in what they felt was a good market value for our home. We agreed with their assessment as it was higher than what we had anticipated. We had planned to interview other realtors; however, after spending the time with Sheila & Linda we knew that was not needed. One of the conditions of giving them our listing is we did not want a sign in front of the home as well as a lock box. They agreed and we signed the papers on the same day. The pictures and the videos were top notch and provided a great overview of our home. Linda was extremely communicative. She always provided 24 hours’ notice before a showing. She arrived early to the appointments. She was responsive to every question. She checked in often. She provided feedback after each showing whether it was positive or negative. We never had to worry. And all of this was during COVID. I would highly recommend utilizing Linda Thompson and The Norton Agency for selling your home. D. Cartisano
- My wife and I have purchased 9 homes in numerous states through the years. We have dealt with an abundance of realtors considering two realtors are involved with each purchase not to mention all the realtors we encountered in our numerous house searching. We can say without any doubt Linda Thompson, with the Sheila Davis Group of Norton Agency, is at the top of the list as an outstanding realtor! We recently used Linda to purchase a house in Georgia while we resided in Pennsylvania. Linda showed houses by video and we purchased a house without ever seeing the house. We put our faith in Linda and she helped us search for over a year during the Covid pandemic. She wanted to help us find the perfect house but not to overpay for a property. She made sure during the diligence period that everything stayed on track and we were protected. Linda’s service does not end with the signing of a contract or the closing of a property. Buying a house from Pennsylvania during a pandemic took a lot of work on Linda’s part or else we could not have succeeded. And Linda continues to help even today with things which are needed while we transition to Georgia. Linda is an absolute pleasure to work with. Kathy and Paul Newcomb
- When it was time for us to sell our home on Lake Lanier we didn’t know who we should use as our Realtor, so we interviewed several Real Estate groups. We hired Sheila Davis and Linda Thompson from The Norton Group because they were so professional and understanding during the interview process. They did a great job of evaluating our home and setting the selling price. They were very helpful in staging our home for sale that we sold in about 10 days, and closed a month later. Linda Thompson was amazing thru the entire process and my wife and I feel as though we made a new friend in Linda. If you are looking at selling your home, I would strongly suggest talking to The Sheila Davis Group and Linda Thompson. Ron Ellsworth
- We have bought and sold 18 houses throughout the years, and I can honestly say we never had the type of service/attention to detail/quick responsiveness, etc. than with the Sheila Davis Group, in particular Linda Thompson. Linda is one of the most intelligent persons I have ever worked with. On several occasions when there would be an issue that needed immediate attention, by the time I called her back, the problem had been addressed. She is always kind and attentive. She also finds ways to keep her client from feeling overwhelmed. Were we still in the Gainesville area, I would use Linda Thompson and the Sheila Davis Group. These women are sharp as the ole proverbial tack and get the job done. Smart, beautiful and effective: who could want more than that from their realtor? Jen Smith
- While looking for my new home I had the pleasure of working with my agent, Linda Thompson. Her expertise, authenticity, and patience made all the difference. She worked diligently researching, keeping me informed, following through on every commitment, supporting and encouraging me throughout the process. L. Smith
- Dear prospective homeowners, It is our pleasure to recommend Linda Thompson as your realtor. We worked with Linda and found the perfect home for our family. She went above and beyond to make sure that the search was easy and thorough for our family with a young toddler. Linda communicated with us through every step of the process, and made sure that we were getting what we needed and wanted. We had a large wish list, and our new home exceeds any expectations we had. Linda always represented our best interest, and we could not be happier with the relationship we have with her and the outcome of this process. The Reyenga Family
