MEET LAUREN FOURS
Your Dedicated REALTOR® in Holly Springs, Apex, and Fuquay-Varina
Hi, I’m Lauren, a REALTOR® specializing in the market and neighborhoods across Southern Wake County, including Holly Springs, Apex, and Fuquay-Varina. With extensive knowledge of Wake County, as well as Johnston and Harnett Counties, I’m well-equipped to help you find your dream home or sell your property with ease.
Born and raised in New York, I moved to North Carolina about ten years ago, searching across the country for the best place to raise my children. After thorough research on schools, taxes, and housing prices, I chose Apex for its remarkable growth potential. Since then, I’ve dedicated myself to becoming an expert in this part of the market.
My Journey to Real Estate
With a degree in history, my professional journey began in teaching. I quickly transitioned to negotiating high-dollar settlements with the State of New York’s workers’ compensation division.
During this time, a friend introduced me to the world of real estate investment, praising the benefits of purchasing rental properties. Intrigued, I began researching and eventually started flipping homes. The thrill of transforming properties and securing deals sparked a passion that led me to a fulfilling career in real estate.
My Approach
Real estate is deeply personal to my clients, and it is to me as well. I take the time to get to know my clients as individuals, paying close attention to the details that matter most to them. Listing homes is my specialty, and I work closely with professional home stagers to ensure sellers can take pride in presenting their home at its best.
For first-time home buyers and seasoned investors alike, I’m a reliable partner, managing all the complexities and removing the stress from the process. Whether you’re expanding your portfolio with rental properties, purchasing new construction, navigating life after divorce, or simply searching for the right place to raise your family, I’m here to negotiate the best outcomes and ensure a smooth buying experience. My clients know me as the REALTOR who gets the job done while taking the stress out of the entire transaction.
Specialized in divorce real estate
I know from firsthand experience that divorce is one of life’s most difficult transitions. Several years ago, I went through my own divorce and faced many of the same questions my clients face today:
What should happen to the house? Is a buyout fair? What are my options moving forward?
Even as a real estate agent, I found the process emotionally and financially overwhelming.
That experience inspired me to become a Certified Divorce Specialist (CDS®) to help others with the real estate side of divorce. Today, I help clients make informed decisions about their homes, investments, and next steps.
Certifications
Beyond real estate
When I’m not working with buyers, sellers, and divorcing couples, I’m running all over town with my kids. We keep a packed schedule with cheer, cross country, and traveling whenever we can.
I’m also a dog mom to Koko and Chewie, and I have a cat named Blu. When we’re at home, you can find me reading or watching Netflix. I also enjoy battling the heat and clay to keep my garden alive.
I’ve been through a lot of life’s ups and downs that have taught me empathy for my clients. Selling and buying homes are emotional journeys, and my clients appreciate my ability to blend professional expertise with compassionate support.
