Investment Property Purchase
I had been looking for property on the internet for quite some time and found a listing I wanted posted on Realtor.com. I called the the listing agent, Lauren, and we met at the property the next day. I had done research on the area, and since the listing price was reasonable I asked Lauren to be my agent as well the sellers agent. I am not the smartest guy, but that was one of the best decisions I have made. Lauren put me in touch with a great lender, who worked really hard to get me qualified and approved for a loan that was questionable considering my income. Lauren called me everyday, sent all the disclosures and myriad of paperwork all on my phone and the internet. Meticulous and thorough, all hurdles were cleared. Lauren is an Attorney and real estate agent, It was nice to have everything handled by a professional. Thank-you Lauren for making my dream come true!

Sold Single Family Home
It was truly a pleasure working with Lauren to sell our home in San Diego. Being that we live 2000 miles away, we relied on Lauren 100% and she delivered making our home selling experience a smooth and successful one.
Lauren is a true professional with great knowledge of the housing market in addition to superior communication and marketing skills. She always kept us updated as the process unfolded and was readily available to answer questions and help us make decisions. Lauren handled things promptly and calmly in spite of some unique circumstances and challenges. Lauren has terrific energy and compassion for her profession.
We would recommend Lauren 100% to anyone looking to sell or purchase a home.

Detached Home
Purchase
If you're looking to buy a home in San Diego, look no further than Lauren Empey to get you into your new home. Buying a home is a lot of work, and that includes a ton of work from you, the home buyer. Lauren will help you to view all MLS listings, and will help you narrow your search down as you begin to look. I highly advise to go out and tour the neighborhood BEFORE seeing the home - my wife and I did this and it made all of our lives that much easier.
When you have found the home you want, Lauren is AMAZING when it comes to putting together an offer. And once accepted, she will guide you through the process up to close. This is where we really loved working with Lauren, as there is SO much paperwork to go through - she asks all the right questions and ensured that we were aware of everything we were signing, and even looked out for us to make sure we were not being worked over.
Whether you are a first time home buyer or 2nd/3rd/etc buyer, get Lauren in your corner - you'll be happy you did.

Condo Purchase
I wish I could give Empey Realty 10 stars! When I made the big decision to purchase a condo I was very nervous. I sat down with Lauren and told her everything I wanted and how much I could afford. She listened carefully and quickly got me on the MLS. She also got me in touch with a very good lender so I could get pre-qualified and get a great rate. Searching the market listings were a little nerve wrecking but Lauren always made time to answer my silly questions. She knew when to nudge me and when to let me look around on my own. The property tours were a little intimidating, but she made it so much easier by talking with me. She always had a positive attitude about looking and there was never any pressure. Read More >>

First-Time Home Buyers
Lauren was beyond amazing!! She walked us through everything, and any hiccups that occurred with our seller, she took care of for us and never made us worry! She held our hand the whole way and was very patient with us in our first time homebuyer lack of knowledge. She helped us get a $6,000 closing cost credit from the seller, on top of a great price! We appreciate all of her help and loved working with her. She has been completely open to answering questions even after we closed. Thanks Lauren!!!
