Lauren was nice, helpful, and she told us what we needed to do to sell our home to get top dollar, which we were able to get. We’d bought our first home in Colorado through Rob when we first moved here. We have four kids, including two teenage boys, and we outgrew that house quicker than we thought we would. Lauren knew her stuff and what would stand out to buyers. She knew what to do to appeal to buyers. We upgraded the kitchen and bathroom floor. The way we set up the house — with four kids we had a lot of clutter — we got rid of that to open the rooms and make them look bigger and she staged the back yard for us. We spent a little bit and got a lot back. It worked out really good for us, all the things she told us to do. And it happened so fast. We met in July and sold the house the first week of August. She did an amazing job. We listed it on a Thursday and were under contract on Saturday morning. We could have been under contract Thursday, we had four offers. But we had bookings through the weekend so we wanted to pick out the best. Both Rob and Lauren are amazing, they do really great work. – Steve Doebler, 2020

Rob helped us buy our first home! From the beginning, Rob was hands-on and always there to answer our questions. He was resourceful, patient, personable and always connected and present throughout the entire process. Other Realtors sometimes give you a business answer, but Rob always had more of a personal touch. We were first-time home buyers. We needed that extra hands on, and he worked around our schedules. He made an extremely stressful time manageable and exciting! We had rented our townhouse for double the time we wanted. My husband and I had been together 10 years, so it felt like the time to finally have our own place, especially with everything going up in the market. We looked at around eight houses and put offers on two others before we found ours. The ones that didn’t work out for us, it was like “Why, what did we do wrong?” And Rob was there to give us advice. I would recommend Live Dream Colorado to anyone looking to either buy or sell their homes. They are a fantastic team and you can tell they really care! – Rebecca & Daniel Fontecchio, 2020

We were talking about selling our house in Colorado, and two years ago we started doing the necessary upgrades. We didn’t know where we were going or when, but we knew we needed to downsize. I cried when we finally left. My youngest daughter was born in that house. It was sad to sell it. We loved that house. We put so much time and money into it. We had kids there and dogs we loved. My plants. Rose bushes my brother gave me. But it was time for the house to find another family to love. We had to let go of that old stuff in order to embrace something new. Lauren was a delight to work with from start to finish. She’s very practical and evidence-based. She researches things. She knows what works and what doesn’t work. When she tells you to do something, she knows why you should do it. She was so prepared and knowledgeable. I was a Realtor for 7 years, and people asked me if I was going to sell the house myself. I said no, because I really believe you need a professional to do it. Someone who is up to date because markets and trends change. Lauren stays up to date. I was worried about my ugly laundry room. It had a southwestern border from the 90s. Lauren said, ‘I don’t think that’s a high priority. You’ve done all the important things people care about and look for.’ And she was right. She brought in a magician to do the photographs. She works with this amazing service for showings. You could set it up online and people could schedule viewings and you’d get notified so you could get out of the house. Lauren always made sure to get feedback. She has a system that is flawless. She communicates really well. She communicated with both of us. Just the right amount. She’s factual and pragmatic. She’ll say ‘These are your options. This is what I’ve seen other people do. This is what’s happening in your neighborhood. But it’s your choice.’ We finally decided to sell because we really felt like we would get top dollar in this market, and we weren’t sure what we’d get later. We are thrilled with the price we got. We got more than we ever thought we would get. Ultimately, I appreciated Lauren’s pragmatic approach, because selling a house is a business decision. I didn’t get emotional until the end. Up until then I was all about the process. – Eileen Healy, 2020
