Client Testimonials

★★★★★
"As first time home buyers, we are very grateful to have worked with Lauren. She's all you would ever want in a realtor: knowledgeable about the city, great people person, realistic, savvy, communicative, and simply a pleasure to work with! We're sure she is excellent with seasoned buyers, but we can attest that she certainly has a knack for working with first-time buyers. She educated us all along the way, helped us negotiate strategically, gave us great recommendations for various service providers, and has been a fantastic resource all around." - Elizabeth G.

★★★★★
"I highly recommend Lauren for all of your house buying or selling needs! She's knowledgeable, helpful, accessible, and incredibly fun to be around! She helped guide us through our move to Chicago from New Jersey and made the whole process easy. Whenever we needed a referral for someone during any part of the process, Lauren always "had a guy." Lauren's personality and knowledge of the Chicagoland area made what could've been a stressful time, a smooth transition. If you're thinking of buying or selling your house, Lauren is who you want to help you!" - Joe and Christa L.

★★★★★
"We have worked with Lauren on two different deals (buying and selling) and cannot recommend her enough! She is knowledgeable, responsive and a pleasure to work with. When an offer on our condo fell through at the last minute, Lauren got us back on the market the very next day and we had multiple offers in hand by the end of that weekend - that is exactly the type of real estate agent you want to work with! We highly recommend working with Lauren!" - Phil C.

About Lauren

Lauren's Story

What do you get when you combine a teacher, a comedian and a COO?

Either the start of a really bad joke or an attentive, knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and entertaining real estate agent. In this case, we’ve got the latter. Lauren Herskovic is a founding member of Moda Group at Compass, the Chicagoland Regional President of Women of Compass, and an Accredited Buyer’s Representative (ABR®) from the National Association of Realtors.

And she’s a powerhouse Real Estate Agent, helping buyers and sellers navigate the competitive Chicagoland Real Estate Market.

The home-buying and home-selling process can be overwhelming, whether it is your first time going through it, or your 10th! But Lauren’s focus on educating her clients, constant communication, and utilizing tried and true systems, make for a seamless and (dare we say it?!) fun experience for her clients.

“Lauren was hands down the best resource we could have asked for in looking for our first condo. Not only did she guide us through the whole process smoothly, but every other resource she recommended, from inspectors to lenders to attorneys, was incredible.” - Kelly, Home Buyer in Chicago

“I cannot recommend Lauren highly enough! We recently sold our condo and Lauren's expertise and guidance made the entire process incredibly smooth. From the very beginning, Lauren impressed us with her local market knowledge. She helped us price our condo competitively and strategically, which resulted in a whirlwind of interest! We were thrilled to receive our offer within 4 days of listing, and Lauren expertly navigated the negotiation process to secure us an excellent deal.” - Janelle, Home Seller in Chicago

Background:
Lauren grew up in suburban Detroit and now lives part-time in Avondale and part-time in Northbrook with her partner. She got a BA in English and Secondary Education from the University of Michigan (Go Blue!). She then served as Editor in Chief for an online women’s magazine in NYC before working as COO for a consulting company based in Chicago, taking the company from a 3-person operation to a team of 100+ with offices in the US and China.

In her free time she loves to do Pilates, read, cook, take pictures of her food and binge-watch Bravo with her Toy Poodle, Harvey. If you’re looking for help in finding your next home - whether you’re a first time homebuyer in Chicago or a seasoned real estate investor - call/text/email/send an owl and Lauren will help get you set on that home-buying journey!
