What my clients say
From our first meeting with Lauren, through the close of our sale, our experience was amazing.
Lauren is always prepared. She does her research and knows the market. When she came to our listing appointment, Lauren had already done all the research on our horse property, even including the builder. She had numerous comps ready and a price range for the property already developed, which she refined to a proposed listing price after she toured our home. This impressed us from the beginning because properties like ours do not have a lot of comps and pricing them can be a challenge.
Throughout the preparatory phase, Lauren provided spot-on guidance for staging the house. Additionally, her marketing of the house was spectacular. From the lush photos, to the video tour of the property with drone footage, to the website she created just for our home, no house in Frederick County had better marketing… and what results it brought!
When we finally opened the listing, Lauren booked 27 showings in five days. While it was certainly exhausting for us, we received five offers, all of which were at least $50,000 over asking price. We were absolutely astounded by the results of her efforts.
