"My husband Chris and I relocated to the South Bay area in 2009, and purchased a home in September 2010. We were planning to look for 6 months, but we closed about 12 weeks after meeting Lauren!
She is very thorough, to say the least—knows the ins and outs of her field. As our buyer's agent, we definitely felt that she put our best interests first, always looking out for us. She presented anything she felt was a potential concern or problem for us, regardless of the price of the property. Lauren's engineering background was quite helpful in many of the conversations we had. She was also a great resource for pretty much anything home project related (contractors, stores, home improvement ideas, etc.)
Lauren is a good listener—actually hears what is important to you as a buyer and remembers and searches for those criteria. She is a hard worker, just gets the job done; in our particular case she really went to bat for us in the end negotiations. We really had a positive experience with Lauren in a new market for us, and sincerely enjoyed working with her."Chris & Jen Woods

"Dealing with Lauren Perreault on the purchase of a new home could only be described as enjoyable and professional. She took the time to be extra thorough yet still achieved getting things done in a timely manner. Always knowing what is going on without having to pester the real-estate agent is priceless to me and with Lauren you get nothing short of that. After I bought my new home, I trusted them her to sell my old one as well."

"We just wanted to express our sincere appreciation & recognition for the fantastic job you did in helping us to buy our house in Manhattan Beach. Although we'd never met prior to this purchase and bumped into you at the open house, we were immediately drawn to you because of your honesty and professionalism. Your valuable insights of seeing the great potentials of this house is really helpful to us on making that final decision to commit to the purchase. Your wonderful negotiations also helped us in getting our offer accepted. Of course along the way, you have also provided us with many many useful suggestions as to what can be done to update the property and cost estimates so we have all the information at hand before finalizing our offer. "
The escrow process went pretty smoothly and you made sure that all our issues/concerns were properly addressed. Ease of communicating with you and your straight-forward nature are rare qualities to find among Realtors today and we know we can place our trust in you. This means a lot to us when buying our home. We will definitely recommend you highly to our friends and family for future real estate transactions.Lisa and Simon Rees

"As first time home buyers, Lauren was the perfect real estate agent for us. I didn't know much about the process, but I wanted to be very involved and educated. I asked Lauren tons of questions and she was always quick and detailed in her answers. She never made us feel bad about asking questions and encouraged us in our inquisitiveness. She helped us get the best possible deal on the home that we really wanted. In the end, the process was easier than I expected to be and I felt very comfortable in my decision. This was largely due to the manner in which Lauren coached us through the process. She never rushed us and made sure that we were comfortable before moving forward. I've recommended her to several friends already and will continue to stay in touch with her. She certainly will be our agent for life."

"Thanks for your support in making my purchase of investment property both profitable and enjoyable. You listened and understood my concerns, and unlike other Realtors I've used in the past, you recommended only properties that were an excellent fit to my wants and were in constant communication with me.
From purchase to sell, your many years of experience in working with your own investment properties have enabled you to give me value-added support for all aspects of my purchase. From unmatched financing, building, decorating, and resale ideas, I'm looking forward to working with you again in the near future. Thanks again!"Ben Moore

"Please know that my wife and I asked Lauren to help us finalize our real estate transaction with the sellers Realtor. We choose Lauren as I had worked for her in the past, and now as friends over the years, we know of her ability to; negotiate when the stakes are high, her results oriented work ethic, her ability to apply her vast repertoire of knowledge to the task at hand, her uncanny ability to move a project (in this case a real estate transaction) through the many timely steps and most of all, for the trust that we have been able to put in her. Thank you! "Robin and Diane Haller

"I would highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a real estate agent in the south bay. She helped us to find our home three years ago and has remained a trusted friend. Her expertise and aggressive pursuit were instrumental in helping us find our home. Her knowledge of the area was a big time saver and helped us focus on the best options. After the purchase, she coached us on several aspects of home ownership, helping us to find resources to help with home improvement projects. We will surely go back to her for our next home purchase."Warren Vanderlaan

"HUGE THANKS to our Realtor, Lauren Perreault, for working so hard on this. If anyone needs an AMAZING agent, she really is the best!!"

"We were lucky enough to find Lauren Perreault online while researching South Bay real estate professionals. After one brief phone conversation, I knew she was the right person to help us relocate two high schoolers, one fifth grader, three horses, two dogs and one cat from Houston to Palos Verdes. Her knowledge of the area schools and neighborhoods was invaluable. It's hard to move a large family, and she understood perfectly that we needed as little stress as possible. We initially rented a house, which went off without a hitch, and after a year and a half, Lauren helped us buy a beautiful home, which was priced in the lower end of our ideal range. We will definitely use Lauren for our next home purchase."

We recently relocated from NY and met Lauren at an open house. Let me start by stating we are the difficult, unwilling to compromise client. Lauren listened to every requirement and concern we had. She never made us feel pressured in anyway. We have young children that I would bring with us on our house hunting and my kids love her. Like any kids they did not like looking at houses but they always looked forward to seeing her.
She has a great eye, and would point out any potential issues that we may had overlookedas well as the potential of a property. When we found our house she worked with us to make the entire process from bid to close go surprisingly smooth. We were not new to buying a home but we were new to buying in California and unaware of how different the process is. Lauren was wonderful in answering ALL our questions and explaining the differences. She helped us with finding the right contractors to get work done quickly in the house before we moved in. Every person she has recommended to us has been great. She has also been very helpful with recommending great local resources and fun things for families in the area. After spending almost everyday for over 8 months talking to, emailing or touring houses with Lauren I can honestly say I got to know her very well she is what I would call "good people". She is honest, caring, through but most importantly wants what's best for her clients.Una Murphy-Hernandez & Marlon Hernandez
Lauren has been an amazing addition to our family! She helped us find our home 5 years ago and then helped us sell it this past month. She has gone above and beyond her role as a Realtor to assist us in whatever we needed. Being a military family we had very little time to look/find a home and then had almost no notice when we had to move and she took care of everything for us alleviating a huge stress on our family. IIt was great knowing that we could put our complete trust and faith in her to do what was in our best interest. We have appreciated everything she has done for us!
