About
I'm a third-generation Bay Area local who has spent my life in San Francisco neighborhoods, so helping people find the right place here feels deeply personal to me. Many of my clients are relocating or moving within the city and want more than just listings sent to them—they want guidance on neighborhoods, lifestyle, and what will truly feel like home.

I’m building my business on repeat and referral relationships, which means I go well beyond the transaction. I take a hands-on, thoughtful approach with every client, stay proactive about uncovering off-market opportunities, and lean on a strong network of local lenders, contractors, vendors, and agent partners to make the process smooth and well supported.

That commitment extends to my industry partners as well. I value long-term relationships, clear communication, and treating every referral like a VIP, with the goal of creating an experience that reflects well on everyone involved.

"Lauren was always responsive and proactive, providing us with a tailored list of options. Importantly, she provided us with guidance and advice through every step, including once we found “the” apartment. She gave us advice on how to secure the apartment once we realized it was a perfect match, and was instrumental in helping us ensure our offer was accepted over the other half dozen or so offers."

"I worked with Lauren and could not be happier. She respected my parameters (ie budget and location) and had a light but firm touch on all the processes involved. We just “ went looking” and it turned out she found the right property for us and we successfully went into closing approximately 10 days later. I was concurrently dealing with family health issues and she expertly navigated around my lack of availability. I would want her to be my agent in any real estate transaction in the future; I think that highly of her."

"I can’t recommend Lauren highly enough for anyone searching for a new home in San Francisco! From our very first meeting with her, she took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and what our non-negotiables were. Her deep understanding of the city and dedication made the entire process not only smooth but also enjoyable. "
