Real Estate Agent – Lauren Roman

Lauren Roman

Team Lead

Whether it's buying or selling, my focus is customer satisfaction and making sure that you feel comfortable with the process every step of the way. Through communication and transparency, I ensure that my clients are always in-the-know and prepared for the next steps.

People say that buying or selling a home is one of the most stressful things you can do in life – who you choose as your real estate agent makes a huge impact on how true that statement really becomes. I do my very best to make sure that the transaction is as smooth as possible for you.

Prior to becoming a real estate agent, I spent 15 years in administrative roles at two of Chicago's top law firms. My prior work experience, in addition to earning a Bachelor's Degree in Marketing from Columbia College Chicago, provides me with additional tools and knowledge to truly be the best real estate agent for you.

I'm a lifelong south suburban resident and currently reside in Homewood with my husband, David and our three children. After volunteering for the Homewood Community Relations Committee for over 6 years, I am now an elected Village Trustee for Homewood. I love being involved in this wonderful community! I look forward to sharing my knowledge of the area with you and helping you with all of your real estate needs.

From selling the home they raised their children in for the last 30 years to first-time home buyers, I love watching people's dreams come true through real estate and I hope to work with you soon!
