Lauren was such a pleasure to work with on every level! She never failed to notify us of potential homes that catered to our very specific needs. We were extremely selective in terms of home requirements (finding a 4 stall garage in desirable locations without going into debt is no easy task;) Lauren did everything she could to accommodate us in this quest. She stuck with us the entire time and never gave up! Her communication, professionalism, patience, and genuine warmth never wilted throughout the entire process. We ultimately found the house that met our needs and she also helped us sell our old home. I would recommend her to anyone who is seeking a new home and/or trying to sell their current one!

I was referred to Lauren by a friend who had a great experience with her. When we first connected I had already moved to California. I was renting out my Redmond condo but was interested in selling when the time was right. She occasionally touched based and kept me updated on the market conditions. I never felt any pressure. Years passed and I was finally ready to sell. Lauren took care of everything and made sure my condo was in great shape before the listing went online. I was very pleased with the winning offer. Throughout the entire process Lauren proactively kept me up to date. I loved not having to reach out for information. It just came. The closing period was very difficult for reasons out of our control. Lauren stayed positive and went above and beyond to ensure we got to closing. We only communicated over email, text and phone. I never met her in person but once we closed, I wish I could have given her a big hug. She congratulated me on closing but she was the one deserving of congratulations for a job well done. You definitely want Lauren in your corner. Her work ethic, attitude and communication skills are top notch!

I couldn't have asked for a better realtor than Lauren. Seattle real estate is extremely competitive and short on listing, on top of that this was my first purchase, but Lauren navigated this process with me with patience and understanding. I knew the road wasn't going to be easy as I'm very picky and knew what I wanted. It took us a while but we found the perfect home. Once we were in contract, the process took over a year due to builder's delays (Wow!) - and Lauren was there throughout the entire journey! Lauren could have just waited until the home was ready and just help with closing, but instead she was on top of everything - whether it was helping communicate with the builder for updates, helping me ensure that the details of the house were done to my liking, and even fighting with me to ensure that I was able to get all the builder's credit. During closing time, which was a very stressful 24 hour period, she was there throughout the journey helping me and taking some stress off my plate. I'm so grateful that I've found Lauren, and I'd recommend her to anyone without a doubt! Her attention to detail, follow ups/responsiveness, and communication skills are top notch. She's a rockstar that help you from beginning to end.

Lauren was a fabulous help in navigating the difficult Seattle market for this transplant. We ended up closing on a house at list with full contingencies and got the seller to fund a $11K sewer repair! Lauren is fun, personable, strategic, and always worked within our sometimes difficult schedule. She's wonderful!

Lauren GeRoy sold my home for a great price, super fast, and effortlessly on my part. She staged my home beautifully and the professional photographer she used made my home attractive to potential buyers. Lauren helped me with all my stupid questions and explained the real estate jargon very well. I highly recommend Lauren and plan to use her services again very soon. Thank you Lauren!!!

Truly exceptional! I worked with Lauren for over two years to buy my first place (a condo with a view in Queen Anne!) As a first-time buyer, this process can be intimidating, overwhelming, and frustrating. Lauren was supportive, responsive, and most importantly patient throughout the entire experience. Never once did I feel that she was annoyed at showing me yet ANOTHER place, or putting in yet ANOTHER offer just to be outbid in this insane market. Never once did I feel like I was a second-rate customer to her because of my low price-point and timid purchasing abilities. Instead, she was enthusiastic, kind, respectful, and super on top of it. Lauren was always honest without trying to persuade me one way or the other on a property, and she was both timely and thorough in getting me additional information about any given property - even random, seemingly trivial information. She advocated for me throughout my closing process as well, again, working hard to make sure I understood what was going on each step of the way, and that things were getting done on time. She is a hard worker, but understands and respects life balance. She is unfailingly communicative, and unflaggingly optimistic as well. I cannot recommend Lauren enough - she will be the person I recommend to anyone who is looking to buy or sell.

Lauren came highly recommended to us by my sister-in-law who purchased a home last year with Lauren's help. When we first started our house hunt earlier this year, we didn't realize how crazy the Seattle market was. You have to act fast if you want to buy a house in Seattle. With a baby and our working schedules, this proved to be quite a challenge for us but Lauren was very flexible. She often went to check out houses on her own (that we were interested in or looked at over the weekend) and gave us a full rundown of comps, known issues, etc. Lauren has a great eye and often noticed problems before the pre-inspection even. Still she was incredibly patient with us and always had our best interests at heart even when we decided not to pursue two homes after going through with the pre-inspection process. In the end, Lauren helped us land the first home that we offered on. As first-time home buyers, I had heard that the home buying experience could be a very grueling process but those buyers did not have Lauren by their side. She helped us with every step of the process and even sent us an organized spreadsheet with a timeline of what to expect and action items that we needed to take care of. If you are in the market to buy a house, I would highly highly recommend that you work with Lauren!

RE/MAX on the Lake has mad a great impression on me. Professionalism, combined with great people and cutting edge technology is a recipe for success.

I worked with Matt van Winkle with Re/Max on the Lake. Matt was attentive to our needs and our concerns. He really listened and understood the obstacles we faced in this competitive market. Matt was all about solutions, which is what made us more competitive as buyers. He worked within our comfort level and did not pressure us into going outside of our comfort level when it came to structuring an offer. I trust his knowledge and never found myself questioning his expertise. He paid great attention to detail when it came to our family profile and dynamics, which I believe in the end is the reason why the seller chose our offer when he presented us...a presentation/offer in which there were 16! A truly solid agent who knows what he is doing and great to work with. I would work with him again in any future real estate transaction and will recommend him to any one I know looking to buy or sell a home.

Such a fun vibe to this place! Not just the office, the staff and the agents as well. I don't think I saw a single person without a smile on their face. That, and they really knew what they were talking about. It's weird to think of calling a real estate agency hip- but that's the best word that comes to mind. Definitely a fav to recommend.
