Why Work With Laura Lawrence?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
We began our home buying journey almost four years ago when we met Laura at a local open house. Laura was engaging, attentive, and truly interested in learning about us and our needs. As seasoned home buyers we were not expecting such kind treatment from a seller’s agent, particularly as just walk-ins, but we left the open house convinced we had just met our future Realtor.Laura understood we were not fully prepared to relocate to Florida, but that did not matter to her. Instead, Laura made us feel it was more important to build a relationship, a partnership, if you will, so that when the time came for us to relocate, we could hit the ground running. It was that partnership that we came to value most and Laura’s commitment over the long term to help us. While market conditions held us back from making a quick purchase, Laura stuck by our sides as we chose to rent for 18 months, routinely checking in, keeping us informed about market conditions, but always adding a personal touch of kindness. I cannot tell you how much we valued the relationship over the data.When we decided to pursue a home, we quickly came to realize how lucky we were that Laura and Stuart worked together as a team. Stuart is a master negotiator, keenly aware of the market down to the neighborhood level, and a genuinely kind-hearted gentleman. Stuart maintained the momentum between ourselves and the seller’s agent, communicated professionally, and kept us consistently apprised. We cannot thank him enough for being on our side.Our hats are off to both Stuart and Laura, along with the entire team at Michael Saunders & Company, who guided us through our home-buying journey. You are to be congratulated on a very fine team.

We encountered many realtors and real estate agencies which was not always a pleasurable adventure. When we decided that Lakewood Ranch would be our new home, we contacted Michael Saunders Realtors, because of their broad base inventory at our price range. That's when we met Stuart & Laura Lawrence. This team's knowledge and experience to accommodate our needs made the process simply outstanding. We highly recommend Stuart & Laura for their true professionalism. whether buying or selling properties, this winning team will take an honest personable interest in achieving your highest expectations.

I’m writing to you to compliment you on the relationship that we developed with Laura and Stuart Lawrence at your Lakewood Ranch location. Both Laura and Stuart were very helpful in assisting us along the way of our new construction at The Isles at Lakewood Ranch. As you know, no new construction comes without hiccups, and they were both very attentive and kept my wife Barbara and I “sane” throughout the process. As remote buyers caught in the COVID-19 situation, Laura took weekly pictures of our home and was always there to answer questions and get us the updates we needed. As a long time salesperson myself, they should be considered great team members.

"Having just completed an intensive three day viewing of homes in Venice with Stuart and Laura Lawrence, we can state unequivocally that they are the best Realtors we have ever had the pleasure of working with. They were organized and respectful of our limited time. Their research and responses to our questions was thorough and timely. They listened and clearly acknowledged their understanding of our preferences. They called to our attention home features ( negative as well as positive) with a high level of expertise without being antagonistic or overbearing. Besides, they were personable and fun to share our hunt for a new home in Florida."

Laura and Stuart were very passionate and enthusiastic about matching our specific desires for a house with what was currently available. They are very engaging and good listeners. We felt confident immediately with their knowledge and expertise and that confidence kept growing the more time we spent with them. With their guidance, when we finally made our decision to buy our particular house, we felt sure we made the right choice. Besides their knowledge of the market, they are also skilled negotiators.
