Lauren is the best! I'm new to Richmond so she helped me find the perfect home in a perfect location. Very patient and helpful in my first home buying experience. Always available, Professional and great at communication made the process smooth and easy. Looking forward to work with her again in the future
We recently sold our home and Lauren made it so easy for us. Everything was handled professionally and Lauren's extensive knowledge and experience led to multiple offers above asking with great terms. We were really happen with how the deal ended up and we will certainly be using Lauren and Jesse again on our next purchase. I would highly recommend the Baust team if you are looking to buy or sell!
Lauren is truly the best to work with! My wife and I are by no stretch of the imagination easy customers, but Lauren guided us through the processes of both purchasing a home and selling our condo with great decorum. She has great energy and knowledge; a true PROFESSIONAL. I HIGHLY recommend working with her!
Lauren is incredible! She very quickly got a sense of our particular taste and needs and she helped us find and buy an amazing property in the perfect location. She's extremely responsive to questions over email and text and is very clear with communication about complicated business conditions. She's well-connected to other realtors in the area (which ended up being a good thing during negotiations). She made great recommendations on how to go about renovations (she set us up with contractors, painters, architectural salvage lots, etc.). She is straight talking, down to earth, funny, and a pleasure to work with. I can't recommend her enough!
Zillow actually connected us to Lauren through a chance encounter two years ago and she did an amazing job helping us purchase our first home in Richmond. In fact, we loved working with her so much that we hired her again a year later to buy our second house! :) She knows the Richmond and surrounding areas so well and her expertise is invaluable. She provides excellent guidance, while also listening to our wants and needs in the search process. We LOVE our new home and have Lauren to thank for that. She's the best! Highly recommend.
So….here we are again, nearly 4 years later, except this time instead of buying a home I was selling my home. Of course the first person I contacted was Lauren and, once again she went above and beyond. Honestly, there’s not enough praise that I can heap on to Laurens plate but, I will endeavor to try. When we first started this process Lauren essentially helped us put together a laundry list of items that will assist in getting the home market ready and sold quickly, she also, very graciously pointed out several items that were pointless and essentially kept us on the right track. Lauren also performed plenty of market research and narrowed in on when we should list our home for maximum profitability. Lauren has an excellent business sense and also doubled as my part-time therapist through the whole selling process, managing to ensure I didn’t pull all of my hair out. If you’re looking to buy or sell in the Richmond area I highly recommend Lauren and her husband Jesse as I’m of the opinion you wont find better. I look forward to working with them in the future, but hopefully not too soon as I am still waiting for my hair to grow back.
Lauren prioritizes the success of her clients by using her extensive knowledge of the Richmond market and taking time to get to know her buyers. Purchasing a house is a big decision and working with the right agent matters, especially in a competitive market. You want someone who cares about your concerns and has the experience and work ethic to find your ideal home.Zillow paired my husband and me with Lauren, and after viewing two homes, we knew that we wanted to continue to work with her. She helped us find a home that met all of our requirements, stayed within our budget, and is in our *dream* neighborhood - we’re still pinching ourselves over our new home. If you don’t know where to start; if you feel like everyone you know has an agent to recommend and you don’t know who to choose; if this is your first home buying experience or your second, third, fourth, etc.; if you’re looking for someone who works incredibly hard, knows what they’re doing, and has your best interest at hand, reach out to Lauren. I highly recommend working with her!
This was our second time working with Lauren. She is fantastic and we love working with her! We were selling our first home and were very anxious sellers. Lauren helped us along the way and gave us a lot of piece of mind. She’s super responsive and was very knowledgeable when the buyer’s agent needed help with the contract. We sold extremely quickly and over the asking price. We couldn’t ask for more. We will definitely work with Lauren again!
I cannot say enough great things about Lauren! She is always responsive and always available whenever I need her for questions and guidance. Lauren is attentive, knowledgeable, and goes above and beyond for her clients. As a first time homebuyer, that truly meant the world to me to be able to rely on someone to answer all of my questions! In this wild market - she was able to help us find, tour, and place an offer on my first home faster than I would have ever imagined. Her calm and relaxed demeanor put me at ease through the whole process and I cannot recommend her enough!!
We started our home search journey with a list of neighborhoods we liked and a general idea of what we wanted in a home. After looking at Zillow for agents who had experience in our ideal areas, we saw Lauren’s name come up frequently. We decided to trust her to guide us in our home buying journey. Lauren helped us tailor our search to find the home we wanted. She was always available to give us information on new listings or arrange a showing. We were home searching during the pandemic when listings were hard to come by and quick to go. Her expertise in writing a good offer and knowledge of the market helped make the process less stressful and got us in the home of our dreams. I would HIGHLY recommend Lauren to anyone who is looking for a buying agent!
