We were referred to Lauren through a family member who had been very happy with her services. Our home search lasted several months and we had a home to sell which was not in her familiar turf. She guided us in selling it ourselves, giving us great tips on how and when to market it and then watched over our shoulder when offers came in. We sold it in just a few weeks!
Finding the perfect house was another matter and Lauren diligently guided us, often steering us clear of potentially problematic houses. Her commitment to us every step of the way was incredible and we are telling our friends that they better not even think of using anybody else, because Lauren is the best, most thorough, and most personally involved agent (now friend) that somebody could hope to have assisting them!

An Impressed Investor!
As a long-time investor, I thought I´d encountered virtually all of the problems one can encounter in buying or selling real estate.However, my experience with an estate property I recently had to sell gave me a new appreciation for the value of an experienced, dedicated Realtor;something we sometimes take for granted.
I had to quickly get the property listed before leaving on a long-scheduled thirty day trip abroad.To compound matters, I live in Florida, had never owned the property and knew little about the market in Georgia.After checking websites in the Greater Atlanta area, I decided to give Lauren a last minute call to see if she'd list the property.
In speaking with Lauren, my immediate instinct was that she completely understood what I was trying to accomplish in selling the property.She promptly did the research on comparables, personally inspected the property and faxed the listing agreement to usthe evening before we departed.We faxed her our itinerary hoping we´d have an offer by the time we got home.
In less than two weeks we had an offer.However, because of some unusual contract stipulations and a buyer and lender seemingly indifferent to the closing date, it looked like the deal would never happen.I needn´t have worried.Lauren took over and started making things happen.Either by email or phone, she kept us abreast of the frequent issues that kept popping up with the buyer and lender.Due to her tenacity, the deal was closed shortly after our return to Florida.At this writing, I have not yet met Lauren personally.However, I regard her as a friend and look forward to meeting her on my next visit to Atlanta.

Lauren Listens
Lauren demonstrates both a willingness to succeed for her clients and a sense of professionalism that places her head and shoulders above her colleagues. In my dealings with Lauren during the purchse of our home she proved time and again that she was willing to go beyond the efforts of a typcial Realtor.
Her sense of fair play and ethics were always in the forefront, which lent a much-needed guidance through a sometimes difficult process. One main fact stands out, which is; Lauren listened very closely to our wants and needs. She directed us to houses that only fell into that category. We did not waste time looking at homes that were either not what we were looking for or out of our price range. Within a very short time we found the home of our dreams.
I am glad to have had the opportunity to work with Lauren and do not hesitate to recommend her services.

We Made Lauren Follow Us!
Lauren listed our house and we received a good offer within a few weeks. Her great attitude and professionalism throughout the transaction really impressed us.
A family member referred us to a local Realtor in our new location and we were terribly unimpressed. Even though Lauren was over two hours away, we called and begged her to represent us on our new home. She finally agreed, hiring another agent to help her since it was out of her jurisdiction. She could have left the other agent to do most of the work, but her dedication to her clients became even more obvious when she would often drive up here weekly to make sure the transaction went smoothly.
We couldn't have been happier, and when a last-minute glitch threatened to throw the entire contract into oblivion, Lauren presented a compromise that both the Sellers and we could agree to. She then followed through, well after the closing, to make sure that all parties were happy with the ultimate results.
There really is nobody we'd ever recommend to our friends and family in the Atlanta region -- and even in the mountains up here near Helen!

The highest praise comes from another Realtor!
Lauren was a class act from the first time we made contact on the phone all the way to the closing table. She handled her Buyer's transaction flawlessly throughout all phases of the process. Lauren is passionate about representing Buyers and their exclusive interests with absolute integrity. If I weren't an agent myself, I would look for someone like Lauren to help me find a new home!
Thanks, Lauren, for striving for excellence in all that you do. Let's work together again very soon.

First-Time Home Buyers
Even though our house wasn't a million dollar sale, Lauren treated us as though it were. Lauren always returned our calls in minutes, or if not minutes, within the hour. No more than 2 or 3 days would pass and she was always checking in to see how we were doing. That's what makes her a valuable asset to your company. John & Marsha Williams
A Happy Seller!
Lauren gave me an honest evaluation of my home, not inflating the price to entice me to list with her -- but giving me an evaluation and sales price that equaled the market at that time. We had a buyer very shortly after listing the home! Lauren kept me informed, gave me updates and even tracked me down when I was out of town to give me crucial numbers to help my decision. I would feel comfortable recommending Lauren to any and all potential buyers or sellers! Cathy Keisler Payton
An Experienced Seller Switches to Lauren!
Lauren gave me advice about getting my home ready to sell and be "sellable." She priced the home correctly and it sold in 3 weeks! During this harried time she helped me think clearly and plan correctly for the future. Lauren is the most professional person/Realtor I've ever worked with -- and I've worked with many! Suzie Donahue
