"Lauren and her team (Ilyse Bronte and Kayla Keohi) were everything I could have hoped for. I found myself looking to purchase a property in a relatively short timeframe (far from ideal), and Lauren and the team made a stressful time as smooth and painless as possible. From the actual viewing of homes to the strategizing of offers to the actual escrow process, I felt I was in exceptional hands throughout. Lauren and Ilyse were patient and thorough in explaining the process at each step for someone who had limited real estate experience. They were always available to answer any questions - Lauren's response time via text, email, or phone in particular was truly incredible. It was clear from the beginning that Lauren and Ilyse viewed their relationships with their clients as more than transactional - I always trusted that they had my best interests at heart. Ilyse was consistent in pointing out the pros/cons for each property we viewed, often bringing up details that I had overlooked or not considered. And they were adamant in pursuing all potential showings to ensure I saw anything I had even the slightest interest in. Both Lauren and Ilyse are fantastic at managing the roller-coaster of emotions that come along with a home search - they were always supportive, never pushy, but honest and transparent in their thoughts. Finally, Lauren's extensive experience buying/selling on the Westside was invaluable in this competitive real estate climate. I'm confident that I would not have had my offer accepted had it not been for Lauren's reputation and outstanding working relationship with the seller's agent, a scenario I am sure she leverages for all of her clients. Simply put, Lauren and her team are the epitome of professionalism and expertise and I cannot recommend them highly enough. I felt incredibly fortunate to have worked with Lauren and Ilyse and would not hesitate to do so again in the future."

"Within the period of about four months, Lauren helped us buy and sell three different properties. Each was a different undertaking, required radically different strategies, and leaned into distinct sales approaches. Through all of them, Lauren treated each one as though it was the most important, most crucial, and most personal part of her business. And it was to us! She is proactive, responsive, highly experienced, and has an incredibly warm, comforting style that makes collaboration ideal. She forms great relationships with everyone in the process, moves quickly and efficiently with items that require action, and is a true partner in what can be a very complex, overwhelming, and confusing process. During the process, Lauren exudes a feeling of steadfast and calm leadership – having someone in your corner who has done this many times before, with the experience to lead to the finish line. This makes for a more fulfilling experience, one that is more filled with hope and inspiration than nerves and frustration. In addition to her top-notch guidance and direction, she’s also empathetic and caring, working to ease anxiety and help solve problems as they come up. She always makes herself available in moments of uncertainty or stress, and you always come away from a conversation with her feeling relieved and empowered. In the end, what makes Lauren extraordinary is that she is inherently effective. Each transaction went exactly how we wanted it to go. And we know that this would never have been possible without Lauren's guidance and assistance, and we will be forever grateful that we had her in our corner, and will continue to in the future."

"I loved working with Lauren! She truly is the best. I have known Lauren for over seven years, photographing her family and birthday parties. I have always looked to Lauren for suggestions because she knows everything about anything. For my engagement ring, she told me to go to Carlos, so I went with Carlos. For my wedding reception, she put me in touch with her father's right-hand man Perry at Glass Houses in NYC. So when it came to looking for a house, I knew Lauren would be efficient, knowledgeable, and personable. Now I have just learned she won an award for being in the top 1% of 42,000 other agents. But enough about that. My husband Srikanth and I were looking for a house and had to find one quickly because we had a baby on the way. I initially wrote Lauren and she responded to me within 30 seconds and that is how she works. She is always readily available to respond to any question at any hour! Really. sometimes it was 3:00 in the morning. She made our house hunting a fun experience and I always knew I would get an honest opinion from her. We found a great condo in Playa Vista and Lauren made the whole process incredibly easy. Everything was done by DocuSign and we closed quickly. She was extremely efficient and very detailed so there were no mistakes or hiccups. After our purchase, Lauren gave us a delicious house made of chocolate and gave us the most incredible baby gifts. She still to this day, reminds us to pay our taxes. I would highly recommend Lauren to anyone!"

"Lauren Ravitz is by far the finest real estate agent I have used since purchasing my first property in West Palm Beach Florida in 1975. I bought and sold several properties in upscale Palm Beach before relocating to Los Angeles a dozen years ago. When I moved here, my neighbors recommended Lauren, thankfully. Lauren listens. She pays attention. She offers sage advice often to pass on a deal because the deal was not good for me. Lauren knows Brentwood. Lauren knows finance. Lauren knows value. She is a nice woman. I am proud to have her represent me. I have bought two properties and sold one with her. She knows what I am looking for. There were several deals in which I was outbid or even changed my mind, but she knew I was loyal to her, and she was loyal to me. Lauren found properties that just had been listed. In a competitive area like West Los Angeles, being first to see and make an offer is the way she works, and the way I have bested the competition. She even sold one property that was an unlisted, pocket listing, at a record price for that condo building. She does not use platitudes like 'I guarantee" or this home is a 'must-see'. I totally trust Lauren Ravitz and think you will, too. Most of all, she is a good person."

"There are not enough stars to reflect Lauren’s incredible expertise and client service. If everyone did their job as well as Lauren does here, the world would be a magical place. Lauren helped us both buy a new home and sell our old condo, and in both cases her deep knowledge of the process, the players, and the inventory kept things moving forward in a productive and successful way. Lauren shared countless insights and recommendations with us with respect to offers, negotiations, staging, and closing. She is an incredible communicator, and we were in contact daily throughout our time working together. Lauren is tireless, resourceful, practical, and upbeat. I can honestly say that we would not have been able to get our Mar Vista home without Lauren’s skills and support. And, Lauren’s support continues after closing, as she provides tons of great ideas for how to get up and running in your new home (things we never would have thought of) and has the best referrals for local services. We are deeply grateful to Lauren and count ourselves very lucky to have worked with her. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to any friend."

"Lauren Ravitz is a first-class agent; look no further! Lauren Ravitz came highly recommended by a friend who recently used Laurens’ services for her condo purchase. My friend told me you won’t want or need any other agent besides Lauren R., and she was on point! Lauren provides full-service and first-class services to her clients from the first meeting to after sale and beyond. As a solo first-time buyer, the task at hand was daunting but Lauren was right there to answer any question and walk me through every step of the search/escrow/closing process and her connections and understanding of the Los Angeles market proved to be invaluable. I found Lauren to have a genuine and engaging personality, great attention to detail, and very responsive with any matter which made the process that much easier. I would recommend Lauren highly! to any family, friends, or colleagues who are in the market to buy or sell. And if my own situation changes, I will not hesitate to contact Lauren for assistance with another purchase or selling of my current unit."

"Lauren recently guided us through our first home purchase. She was fantastic to work with. She’s hard-working and very responsive and we genuinely felt she advised us with a high level of integrity looking out for our best interest. It was clear to us that her primary goal was to ensure that we were happy and satisfied with our purchase. She comes with a highly qualified inspection team and seamlessly organizes all the inspections on our behalf. She was a great resource, helping us to problem solve and stay focused on what’s important throughout the transaction. We found her to be highly professional and effective even when circumstances were less than ideal. She was also extremely helpful in connecting us with her network of recommended vendors for any work that needed to be completed on the house post-closing. We most certainly will be recommending her to our friends and colleagues. We would not be living in our dream home if it weren’t for Lauren."

She knows what it takes to get an offer accepted, enable a smooth escrow process, and expertly negotiate along the way. She is an advocate, and professional, and provides valuable guidance throughout the process. Lauren is highly efficient, and responsive, and treats every one of her clients with white glove treatment. She made the process easy and having her as our realtor was one of the best decisions I have ever made and am extremely grateful to have purchased our first family home in a fantastic school district with her guidance. Lauren's excellent reputation in the market and impressive portfolio in the highly competitive Los Angeles real estate market are well deserved and I would strongly recommend her to anyone who is embarking on their home-buying journey."

"I have no doubt I would have never gotten my amazing place if it weren't for Lauren. They say in LA it's all about who you know and Lauren knows everyone. In addition to having some great connections, Lauren also knows LA like the back of her hand. Lauren can tell you tips and tricks about each property and also things about each neighborhood so you can really get a sense of where and what you're investing your money in. As a first-time buyer, I was nervous going through the buying process. Lauren kept me completely in the loop and up to date. She even sent me reminders for things I needed to be on top of myself so that I wouldn't drop the ball and factored in and explained additional expenses so that I wouldn't have sticker shock at the end of it all. Lauren is a pleasure to work with. She is professional, persistent, knowledgeable, and honest everything you could possibly want in a realtor!"

"I found Lauren via Zillow. I read a lot of positive feedback about her, reviewed her sales history, and decided to arrange a meeting. As soon as I met her I was so impressed with her energy and knowledge and she really stood out from the other agents I’d met with so far. She really understands how to value a house and which approach she should take for the best possible outcome for the sale. She has a great team of people she works with and they take care of everything from repairs, aesthetic improvements, staging, etc so for us it was such a smooth and easy process from the beginning to the end. We ended up getting over 20 offers and sold the house in a matter of days for what I really believe was the highest price we could get. I highly recommend her to anyone she is on top of everything and really cares about getting the best result."
