We've worked with Lauren twice now and can't recommend her enough. She helped us sell our condo in 2021, and we were so impressed that we worked with her again in 2025 when we bought our new home.

Once we were in escrow, she really went above and beyond, staying on top of every detail and making sure everything moved smoothly. She's knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely cares about her clients.

Lauren Friedman is the best Long Beach Realtor around! She was kind, patient, and incredibly helpful throughout our journey of buying our first condo. We were initially renting a condo when the owner decided to sell, and we were unsure whether purchasing it was the right move due to some known issues. to the unit. A family friend connected us with Lauren, and from the very beginning, she made sure we did our due diligence arranging proper inspections and guiding us through price negotiations.

Working with Lauren Friedman was an excellent experience from start to finish. I've always believed you should do your research first and then let the professionals do their job, and that approach truly paid off throughout this process. Gathering all the necessary documents and completing the due diligence before the property even went on the market was a lot of work on my end, but it was well worth it because everything moved smoothly once the process began. One thing we especially appreciated was the minimal disruption to our tenants, along with how promptly texts and questions were answered throughout the transaction. The gap between excellent and poor customer service seems to be widening these days, and Lauren and her team are definitely on the winning side. To top it all off, we closed escrow a week early, and the pricing outcome was even more favorable than I expected. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, responsive, and trustworthy real estate agent. read more

From our first encounter with Lauren, we knew that we had selected the appropriate realtor for us. Right away, she made us feel comfortable and communicated the entire home buying process clearly.

Lauren is an amazing agent who helped us sell our home quickly and well above asking price with a cash offer. We were not even planning to sell our home, but we fell in love with a house, and put an offer in on the spot. We needed to sell our home immediately, and we got connected to Lauren through a friend. Lauren took us through the selling process every step of the way. She told us that she will work with our needs using a holistic lens, and this is exactly what she did. Even though she was our selling agent she gave us critical advice on the buying end. For instance, she helped us find great inspectors, and even connected us to a lender that gave us a much better rate than what we had secured. I have zero hesitation about recommending her, and if I am ever involved in Real Estate again, I know who my first phone call will be. read more

Lauren has proven herself as a great agent. Lauren has explained every step to me, making it easy to make key decisions. Once the house was cleared out and painted with new carpeting down, Lauren promptly held open houses to show off our home. Lauren has managed to keep our sale exactly on a schedule we established two months ago. Oh, yes, I forgot to mention we got four offers for the house within hours of the open house events and accepted one for more than our asking price. Lauren's skill set and her contacts are first rate. We are currently in escrow and expect to close very soon. Lauren made this whole process easy, painless and right on schedule. If I ever have another property to sell, my first call will be to Lauren. read more

The moment we talked with Lauren about selling our home, we knew we made the right decision.

We consider ourselves very lucky to have stumbled upon Lauren's page on review sites like this one and to decide to shoot her an email. We're not usually much of a "reviewer", but I wanted to pay it forward and leave an honest review. Lauren has been AMAZING every step of the way from the first email correspondence to even after closing. We originally reached out to a number of agents, but ultimately decided to go with Lauren because of her responsiveness, amount of experience, and sincerity. Other agents seemed more "sales-y" and seemed like they only said what we wanted to hear. Lauren is genuine as they come and has made us feel so comfortable reaching out to her regarding anything. As first-time buyers, we wanted an experienced agent who would not only guide us throughout the whole process, but would also be honest with us and give us their two cents when we needed it all the while allowing us to go at our own pace. And Lauren was exactly that. With the crazy housing market, if not for Lauren, I wouldn't be surprised if we would had given up on looking to buy a home (at least temporarily). But with Lauren's help, we were able to get a house way better than we could have imagined. She kept saying "you will get the house you are meant to get" and she made that a reality for us. We are forever grateful for her help and plan on having her represent us in the future. read more

We loved working with Lauren! She is professional and personable. She advised us wisely and our expectations were exceeded with the sale of our home. I highly recommend Lauren for buying or selling. read more

We are so happy that we found Lauren. She came highly recommended from a friend who she helped buy a house. Lauren is not just an agent, she is also a guide who is invested in teaching her clients about the real estate process. At our first meeting she prioritized getting to know us and learning about what type of home we wanted. The market was not great (early-mid 2023) for buyers and inventory was so low. Regardless, Lauren helped us navigate the market and kept us moving forward. After about 7-8 months, we finally found a property that was perfect for us. Our purchase was not straightforward. The property needed repairs and there were several moving parts and parties involved. Lauren was with us every step of the way and advocated for us when it came to negotiating. She is excellent at her job and in working with other agents. She has a great reputation, and I wasn't surprised that agents at several open houses around town, knew, or had worked with her in the past. Buying a home can be stressful and the process can be intimating. I'm grateful to Lauren for all her work and for ensuring that we didn't settle for less! read more

Last year, during a break from a West Coast business trip, I attended an open house in Long Beach, California, and that's where I met Lauren Friedman. After our initial meeting, we stayed in touch via email and text. Lauren wanted to find out exactly what I was looking for in a property; we spoke a few times and she also sent me a detailed questionnaire. Before purchasing in Long Beach, I had to sell my home in Brooklyn, New York, and this process took a little over a year. Once in Long Beach, I wanted Lauren to be my exclusive real estate broker. Two weeks ago, I purchased, not only an investment property here in Long Beach, but actually my dream two-family home. Lauren had contacts and sent me listings that had just been posted on the real estate market. Lauren's fierce dedication to finding the perfect property for me was unceasing. She knows the Long Beach area completely. Whatever you're looking for, if it's available and in Long Beach, Lauren will find it and will get you the best deal possible. The reason I would unhesitatingly use Lauren's services again is that she stands out from all the other real estate brokers. She truly cares and wants you to fall in love with your investment property. I can't thank Lauren enough for finding and negotiating a great for me that resulted in my getting my dream home. read more

Lauren was such an amazing help when it came to buying our first home! She was knowledgeable, honest, patient, and always available to address any concern we had. She made the process so much better and I can't imagine having gone through it without her. read more

Worked well with my agent. Great communication and follow through on all sides. Goes the extra mile!

Simply the best in the business! We contacted Lauren for selling our Condo, she was super accessible and explained the various steps from listing to close. She guided us on staging our condo, presented us an analytical report of comparable homes and explained how to strategically position our condo for maximum profit. Lauren was particularly effective with her aggressive pre-marketing prior to listing our place since we listed our condo on Thursday and by Sunday we had multiple offers that were way over our asking price. We have worked with the other agents in the past but the level of expertise and attention to detail that Lauren exhibited shows she is the best in the business. read more

Lauren Friedman is so much more than an agent. She is a personal advocate that isn't looking to make a quick sale as much as she is to help you find the home of your dreams. She is realistic, funny, available, honest, professional, and extremely hard working. On the selling side, Lauren had the best advice and plan to make it effortless and successful: we sold our house in five days! We had multiple offers over asking and were able to write contingencies into the contract to smooth our transition as we looked for another house. On the buying side, Lauren also had a lot of advice on how to successfully find and have our offer accepted on a house. We quickly had our offer accepted on a house and were in escrow. Unfortunately, many serious items came up on the inspection report. Lauren was adamant that the correct additional inspections and tests be run to ensure the house was safe for our family. When in negotiations with the other agent about these items, Lauren insisted and the other agent was unwilling to test and disclose on the items in question, so we were forced out of escrow. However, at 8:30 am the following morning we met Lauren, and she already had appointments for six houses to see. We ended up finding the house of our dreams the next day after falling out of escrow. Lauren made sure our offer was accepted, and our escrow ended up being short, sweet, and easy. We realized later how lucky we were to have Lauren for our agent during this whole process. Another agent might want us to rush to close on the first house just to make a sale and try to dissuade us to start over. However, Lauren was more concerned that we were happy, healthy, and safe. As an aside, Lauren was also available for our family when an unexpected emergency came up that ultimately ended up not being very serious, but she physically came over to help. Lauren is so much more than an agent; she's a lawyer, advocate, agent, and friend all rolled up into one. read more

Love, Love, Love Lauren!! We met a couple of years ago when she sold dad and me a mobile home when we couldn't find a house within our budget. Recently, I had a small window (1031 Exchange) to purchase a rental property and Lauren pulled together a fantastic list of available properties, all within the strict criteria of the Exchange and me! She is never too busy to take a call, answer questions or just be a sounding board. Personable, professional, and positive...everything you could ever want in an agent. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! read more
