"Turning Real Estate Dreams into Reality — and Helping Others Do the Same"

In real estate, where every client presents a unique set of needs and expectations, the paramount focus is on delivering optimal results while ensuring absolute comfort. The commitment to this philosophy is embodied by Lauren Freedman, now a licensed real estate broker (associate broker with Coldwell Banker).

Lauren’s journey in real estate began in 2010 when she obtained her initial real estate license with the intention of collaborating with her mother, a seasoned real estate appraiser. However, as she delved into the industry, Lauren discovered her true passion lay in the realm of sales. Over the years, she dedicated herself assiduously to emerge as one of the most renowned and respected Realtors in the area, earning accolades not only from her clients but also from her peers.
By 2015, she was named to Coldwell Banker’s Top 30 Under 30 and quickly became the #1 agent for Coldwell Banker Branford, a title she has proudly held since.

Over her 15-year career in the real estate business, Lauren has demonstrated remarkable success, having sold over $500 million worth of real estate and closed deals on over 1,850 properties. This impressive track record has positioned her as the #1 Realtor in New Haven County and Middlesex County. Moreover, she has consistently held the title of CB #1 Realtor for Connecticut and Westchester NY for multiple year
Her dedication has led to over $83 million in sales in a single year, numerous national awards, and a reputation for delivering exceptional results. As Lauren's success grew, she felt a calling to give back — coaching agents to build thriving businesses through her "Grow with Lauren" community with self-paced courses, live trainings, coaching, and more!

Today, Lauren is not just a top agent — she's a mentor and a leader, helping clients and agents achieve their goals. Whether buying, selling, or building a real estate career, Lauren is here to guide you every step of the way.
