When Lauren Fox was just ten years old, her Mom told her that maybe she should be a journalist because of her love of asking questions. Lauren has turned that inquisitive nature (and her Journalism degree from the University of Alabama) into a career as one of the top Real Estate Agents in the Greater Charlotte Area.
You may wonder why is asking questions so important in Real Estate? The answer is that by finding out what is important to you, the client, (above and beyond the standard questioning of how many bedrooms and baths that every agent asks), Lauren is able to locate for the client the perfect home, in the best neighborhood with the desired lifestyle.
When Lauren first moved to Charlotte NC in 2007, she was blessed with the expertise of an Allen Tate agent who asked these questions. With that agents’ guidance, Lauren and her husband, Jeff, found a perfect home and community. When the Fox family grew to include two children – Brodie and Natalie – Lauren was now their agent and was able to find a new home in the same zip code – just seven miles away, door-to-door!
To her clients, Lauren is known for her attention to detail and for her involvement in every aspect of the sale – before, during, and after closing. In 2016 her exemplary dedication and work on behalf of her clients was recognized by awarding her the prestigious Barbara Tate Legendary Service Award.
Whether you are moving in-town or relocating from across the country, Lauren Fox is the agent you want in your corner due to her extensive knowledge and experience with hundreds of families across all life situations. This includes her own personal experience of moving from New Jersey to Alabama to South Carolina to North Carolina.
In 2018 Lauren began investing in Charlotte via the purchase of rental properties. This quickly became one of her passions. Whether she’s helping an out-of-state investor or a local client looking to diversify their portfolio, Lauren has the knowledge and experience to guide you through every step of your investment home purchase. She is also a noted speaker and panelist on the subject of investment homes.
In addition to her successful Full-Time Real Estate career, Lauren is involved in her children’s public schools and activities (Brodie tennis, Natalie cheer). She also enjoys taking care of herself by working out and keeping fit at Club Pilates at least 3 times a week. Lauren loves reading and keeping well informed, as well as enjoying the cultural, sporting, dining, and nature offerings available in a thriving city like Charlotte. One favorite family adventure is boating on beautiful Lake Wylie. Lauren is blessed to be assisted by her amazing transaction coordinator, Helen Klooster, adding an additional level of service to every transation.
Whether you are upsizing, downsizing, relocating, or looking to invest in Charlotte - Lauren Fox is YOUR Real Estate Agent!

Julie Blair
Lauren Fox, our realtor, was AMAZING! She sold two of our homes and also helped us find our dream home. We could not have asked for a better realtor as Lauren communicated with us every step of the way, she is very knowledgeable about the area and market and we were able to get the best price for our homes. I highly recommend Lauren to everyone looking to buy or sell your home, you will not regret the energy, knowledge, confidence and responsiveness you will get when working with Lauren. Thank you Lauren for everything!!!
Andrew D
Lauren was great to work with in finding our first investment property. We had some challenges with the pace the market was moving, and with some sellers, but Lauren helped us to navigate everything in our best interest. Her knowledge of the area and in managing rental properties was invaluable.
R and L Wilson
Lauren was absolutely amazing from our first conversation. Not only did she help us sell our home with one day of showings, she helped us find our new home and was there through the entire construction process. She’s extremely resourceful and knowledgeable. She is highly recommended as a seller and buyer agent!
Worth J Smith, lll
Lauren is a great Realtor, extremely personable and very knowledgeable within her profession. She goes beyond the norm in making sure that the deal works for you. Her experience is priceless through the knowledge and connections she makes available to you throughout the process. Thank you so much!
Vagif Patsiyev
Great experience. She is very responsive. Helped with any questions along the way and made our purchase much easier. Thank you.
Raziya Patsiyeva
Lauren is a Great Realtor! Pleasure working with her. Thank you for all your help!
Nickles Spryn
Relocating from out of state I had a short window of time to find my new home in a hot market. Lauren helped distill down a range of potential houses, provided me with critical market information, we zeroed in on a home and the purchase was closed without a hitch. She also has a broad range of service providers that are helping me update the home. Excellent, knowledgeable professional that is very responsive. Would highly recommend her.
Damond and Rhea Antoine
This is our 7th house and Lauren continues to be the best realtor we’ve had. She sold our house 3 yrs ago and there was no question who we would work with when we came back to buy a house in the area again. She is the most responsive and organized. I appreciate the consistent updates, timelines and next step emails. We also knew where we stood and what was next in every step of the process. She helps with schools, contractors, cleaning crews and helps you find the perfect home. She’s just amazing!!
Tylor Rampy
Lauren did an incredible job helping us purchase our first home. Not only were we first time home buyers, but we were also relocating from a different state. Lauren made sure to get to know us to better understand the neighborhoods in Charlotte we would want to live and helped us find the perfect area. The market during our search was unique, but Lauren helped us navigate all of the different things that were going on in the area. Finally, she was patient in showing us different homes, and when a home that we genuinely wanted came available, she provided us with exactly what we needed to do in order for our offer to win. I could not recommend Lauren more highly, and look forward to working with her in the future.
Damond & Rhea Antoine
You if you looking for a new place to reside we highly recommend going with Allen Tate’s finest Lauren Fox.
John & Molly Abrahamson
Lauren was exactly what we were hoping for in finding the right agent for our family. Within the first 3 days of MEETING Lauren, we had our offer accepted on the one house we wanted to buy in our favorite neighborhood, BEFORE the weekend showings occurred; to avoid a bidding war. That is amazing in this crazy market. She educated us up front, on the process of what she recommended would be a strong offer (in terms of due diligence and escrow, based on market trends); and the outcome was proof of her recommendation. She knew the house was important to us, and didn't want us to lose it. It gets better. Also within the first 10 days of meeting Lauren, she had our house photographed and on the market by the following weekend. Fast and furious! After a cluster of back to back private showings in the opening weekend, we had multiple interests, but accepted the first STRONG offer immediately. Due to reasons out of our control, the buyer had to back out quickly. But that didn't stop Lauren, when she called us to break the news, she also came bearing gifts. MORE strong offers, so we never skipped a beat. The house never went back on the market, and we finally closed. The best part is, we pocked 5 figures of extra earnings (due diligence / escrow), without even needing a bidding war on the listing price. Lauren was responsive, respectful, professional, educational, patient, proactive and even went above and beyond with her general contractor. She is a Steele Creek expert in that booming region; you won't be disappointed in having her as your agent. (A previous neighbor and friend of mine, will tell you the same experience with her)
Marquita S
We relocated from out of state for work and were paired with Lauren to assist us in the home buying process. We could not be happier with the service she provided! Lauren catered the search to our needs, is very knowledgeable about the area, schools, etc. Lauren was responsive and put a very personal touch on our experience. She went above and beyond to make sure our transition was smooth. I can’t thank Lauren enough and highly recommend her.
Dianne Rogers
This is the second time using Lauren and will use her again. I used her as a buyer and seller of my dad’s home. She is attentive, immediately responds to calls, texts and emails. She goes above and beyond serving her clients. She even made herself available on Mother’s Day! She is also extremely helpful with finding solutions quickly. We needed to get a new HVAC installed before closing and she made it happened and the HVAC company was very affordable, an added plus. The backyard fence suffered damage a few days before inspection and she got it fixed. Lauren is very knowledgeable and made sure I understood each step of the process. Plan on relocating to SC and I will only work with Lauren. Highly recommend!!
Cori Bray
Lauren came highly recommended and it was easy to see why after our first meeting. I needed someone to handle the process from start to finish and offer expert guidance and advise. Lauren did just that! She helped with painter, general contractor, cleaning, and staging. She offered excellent advise without being insistent. And her advice lead to setting a record sale in my neighborhood. Most of all she truly cared for me!
Jared Kuhne
We had questions, Lauren had answers. She never came to us with a problem, always a solution. She was relentlessly involved in helping us and answered every one of my absolutely amateur questions with helpful insight. I would recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home. She will hold your hand from beginning to end and make the experience easier than you thought it could be. She has shown us what an agent can be and now we won't accept anything less. My family is completely satisfied and we could not have done this without her.
Heather DePolo
Lauren Fox IS AMAZING! She is personable, responsive, aware of her market, and so much more! We have used and recommended Lauren a few times the last 5 years. I ALWAYS recommend her to friends, family, strangers on facebook and nextdoor. She is a gem and you are lucky to have her! :)
Thomas Collins
Lauren Fox is amazing! I recently purchased an investment property for the first time in the Charlotte area. Lauren's knowledge of the market and the entire process of purchasing and renting a property like this are second to none. She walked me through every step of the way and went above and beyond several times. She was also fantastic during the negotiation process. I would highly recommend her to anyone.
Brandon Lodge
Lauren was outstanding. I am from out of state and did not know much about the Charlotte market, and Lauren was very knowledgeable and responsive, which really made the buying process smooth and easy. I will definitely reach out to Lauren when I am ready to buy another property.
Brandon Lodge
Lauren was extremely responsive, professional, and knowledgeable. She helped make the buying experience very easy and enjoyable, and I look forward to working with her again in the near future.
Cassandra Harris
I have purchased several homes and never had such an AMAZING experience with a realtor as I did with Lauren. She not only negotiated the best price for our new home, but she kept me on track with everything from utilities to submitting the fence request to the HOA. The buying/selling experience can be overwhelming at times and I knew if I had any questions or concerns, I could call Lauren and she would either have the answer or help me figure it out. She absolutely goes the extra mile for her clients and her passion for real estate shows in everything she does! I have already told two friends about her and will continue to do so because she is phenomenal!
Jacqui K
Lauren was so helpful in the sale of our home. Her attention to detail and responsiveness was fantastic and we made it all happen in less than a month during COVID.

Drake and Alicia Anglin
To put it plainly, Lauren was everything you want in a realtor. Efficient, knowledgeable, communicative and always respectful of our needs. She went to bat for us on more than one occasion to be sure that roadblocks beyond our control were handled quickly and our closing/moving process was as seamless as possible. We cannot recommend her more highly, and we are so grateful for her hard work in helping us get the most from our home in an unpredictable market!
Susan A
Lauren is simply put... amazing! I was nervous to put my house on the market, but I found my new dream. I met Lauren a few years ago and knew she was a realtor. So I reached out to her for help to see what my options were... I wasn’t sure about the market and figured at a minimum she could talk to me. Well, flash forward and my house sold the same day it went on the market and for a price higher than I original thought of asking for. And now I’m closing on my new home in just a couple of weeks. Lauren helped me every step of the way. She is knowledgeable, professional, responsive and to say she looks out for her clients is an understatement. I’ve moved many time and by far this is the best experience I’ve ever had. Clearly I can’t say enough about this incredible business woman. On a scale of 1 to 5 stars... she’s an 11!!!!
Rachid Zouhir
I had the pleasure to work with Allen Tate team member Lauren Fox. From start to finish she was very responsive, kind, and a constant professional. Lauren was there for us! We would and we will, recommend Lauren to anyone in the market to sell or purchase a home. We will also look to Lauren when we have any future real estate needs. My wife and I were impressed with Lauren’s professionalism and her genuine interest in assuring we were satisfied with our final decision. Thank Lauren for all you did for us!
Joseph Rodgers
There are realtors then there's Lauren! She always went above and beyond by literally being available WHENEVER we needed and calmed us during the negotiations process with solid, honest, feedback based on her years of experience! She is a true advocate working behind the scenes to get things done! Don't leave selling or purchasing your home to just any realtor, get a "Lauren."
Elizabeth Wise
Lauren Fox has been fantastic. I spent two years looking at townhomes and condos and she was very patient throughout it all. She knew that I was waiting for the perfect place. She listened to my needs, advised me on everything from mortgage lenders to repairmen and walked me through every step of the home buying process. Without her, I know I wouldn't be where I am now.
Elizabeth W.
Lauren was a godsend! She worked with me at my pace when it came to viewing properties in the beginning. I never felt pressured to make a decision. She was very knowledgable about the Charlotte real estate market. Lauren walked me through every step of the home buying process and always made time for my many questions. Without her I wouldn't have been able to make it to where I am today, which is in a condo that I love and look forward to into making into a home.
Helen Klooster
It's been 14 months since we started the process of moving from PA to NC and 8 months since we moved into our beautiful new home in Charlotte and Lauren continues to be there for us! She was instrumental on the NC end while my hubby was commuting and I was trying to get our home In PA sold. She was even there as a sounding board when we had issues or situations arise with hour home sale in PA. Since making settlement on our new home 8 months ago I have frequently contacted Lauren for leads on repairmen, contractors, etc.... and every time her response is swift and quick. She recommends the best of the best and doesn't waste time responding. 8 months after we closed she is still helping us in some capacity or another--- I'd say that is full service, and now she is helping my mom make the move from PA to SC. She is patient, kind, and only wants or accepts the best for her clients - and now her clients parents :) !!! Kudos to you Lauren for being the best of the best... If you need a realtor - stop looking, stop hesitating.... call Lauren - you will not be disappointed! Lauren - thank you, you will always be my #1 recommendation and realtor for life!
Kevin Burr
I moved to Charlotte from Austin during the height of the burgeoning covid infection times in June/July 2020. My job was impacted by covid, so with no other options on the table and bills still rolling in, i took the role and started immediately. I needed to sell my house in austin, buy a house in charlotte, stay isolated so as not to get sick, start a new job, and spend as much time with my kids as possible before moving. I enlisted the help of Lauren. I have never made this big a move in my life. I made a visit to Charlotte, looked at homes for 3 days - about 12 hours a day. Lauren drove me all around, took in my feedback, and recognizing I was lost about Charlotte, she listened and showed me homes each day different from the prior day such that we were able to narrow in on a couple by the third day that fit the requirements. Interestingly, we spoke for about a month prior to my visit so day 1 was pretty spot on - I ended up buying the second house we looked at... go figure... but shows Lauren listened and had me queued up accurately based on what she heard! I had to close on the home in charlotte remotely, and the home required some repairs. Lauren helped coordinate and validate everything for me while i focused on the same in Austin - plus working! It went extremely smoothly. The whole team in fact was great. Not a single glitch in their process. I plan to use Lauren to sell this home in the future when the time comes, and I highly recommend her to anyone needing guidance and expertise in the charlotte area - especially relocating professionals!
Melissa C
Lauren made our house buying process so smooth and easy! She was always available for questions or clarification and really seemed to have our best interest in mind in regards to the offer, inspection, and closing options. She is so knowledgeable in all the aspect of realtor that we had complete confidence we were in good hands with Lauren. We couldn't have imagined this move going any better! Thank you, Lauren!!
Julie Blair
We have been so fortunate to have found Lauren. She helped us find the perfect house when we first moved to North Carolina. When we decided to move to South Carolina and build a new home, it was Lauren who helped us find the perfect neighborhood. As a realtor, she is extremely knowledgeable about the market and also home construction. She walked us through every step of the process to ensure our complete satisfaction. In addition to being very responsive to all our questions, it was obvious over her career she has built a strong network and has helped us find the perfect designer, electrician and handy man. We consider Lauren as our forever realtor, but also a great friend who cares about her customers and always makes a point of asking about our family. Thank you Lauren and we will definitely keep in touch!
carla gold
After vetting several real estate agents to sell my house, I was lucky enough to find Lauren! and Luck it was! She was professional, effective, efficient - above and beyond customer service and a truly wonderful human being - highly recommended. I hope to carry our relationship throughout the rest of my life! Anyone out there that wants more specific feedback, feel free to reach out!
Julianne Lindgren
I have absolutely no hesitation in highly recommending Lauren, she is very perfessional, helpful, great communication and quick service. Lauren has great knowledge of the market. It was easy to arrange times to get my viewings. Since I was relocating from another state I particularly appreciated the great communication and quick replys through, texting, e-mails and phone calls to update me on the progress of the sale. Lauren is a qualified, honest and professional real estate agent. Highly recommended.
Cliff Totherow
I'm a Realtor and have had the pleasure of working with Mrs. Fox on numerous occasions. She is consistently one of the most professional, diligent, and pleasant professionals in the industry! Her clients (and mine) have always had smooth closings. I wish every Realtor I got to work with was as awesome as Lauren Fox!
Noreen Pratscher
Lauren Fox is an outstanding agent. She quickly understood our needs and preferences; showed us properties that fit our lifestyle and ultimately helped us select the perfect new home. I especially appreciated that the 'stayed with us' through to the close -- making sure we were doing what we needed from a documentation perspective and also making sure other parties were meeting their commitments, to enable a smooth close. Because of this extra effort and attention to detail, our close was flawless and easy.
Noreen & Fred
Lauren is amazing! We relocated to Charlotte from Atlanta and although we knew a little bit about the area, Lauren quickly zeroed in on our lifestyle preferences and communities that would work for us. We saw several great properties as a result and are happy with our choice. She also went above and beyond, shepherding details through the close to make sure it was seamless- and providing great company and service recommendations as we settle in. This is our tenth move, and she is the best agent we've had. I'd recommend her to anyone!
Richard Klooster
Lauren was fantastic, quick to get back to us, very strong negotiator on our behalf. Strongly self motivated hard worker.
Travis Knight
Lauren was very professional in helping us deal with a very emotional transaction (selling your home). She was very informative of how the process worked. She was on time for all of our meetings. She responded to all of our questions in a timely manner. It was a delight working her.
Chasity Knight
Lauren Fox, Is the epitome on professionalism. She entered our life during a time of great panic for my husband and I. We had one month to move from the east coast to the west coast. We reached out to her and our journey began. Lauren made us feel welcomed at all times in her presence. She was always easy to reach and responded back quickly in a timely manner. Our home stayed on the market one day and we had a total of 14 shows in two days. On the third day we had two offers. Lauren, deserves all of the awards she has received as a realtor. Her hard work speaks for its self. Along with Lauren comes a maintenance team of professionals who will complete any last minute touches your home needs before all transactions are final. Lauren cares and is sincere she’s continues to stay in contact with us after our move. She wanted our family to know that we have a lifelong friend and realtor if we should ever need her in the future. I highly recommend Lauren Fox to anyone who needs a top notch realtor. Their is no question she can’t answer in the housing market! Lauren, we thank you and adore you, The Knight Family
Elizabeth Valente
Lauren was fantastic. As a first time home buyer I could not have asked for a better partner! She was attentive to my needs and timeline and made the entire process stress free and seamless. I highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking to buy or sell a house in the area!!
Alan M.
From our first meeting, I knew that Lauren was professional, detail-oriented, and at the top of her game. She set the timeline to get the property listed and was prompt in completing every task and notifying me along the way. Lauren took all of the stress out of the situation by letting me know upfront what would be needed (which was very little) and when so that everything fit the overall timeline. Lauren was simply fantastic and I would highly recommend her to anyone!
Christopher McGuire
Lauren was great! We were kind of thrown on her when the agent we had been working with left the business but everything went great and very quickly. The house we loved went into a multiple offer situation but with Lauren's top-not negotiation, we got it! We are very pleased with everything!
Rosemary Saleeba
Lauren is what you want in every relationship, but especially in real estate. She's super knowledgeable, super connected to GOOD people, super responsive, and super friendly! She's helped us through every step of the process from looking at prospects, writing the contract, finding all the correct people to help with inspection, closing, maintenance, etc. and always in a quick time frame with a smile. There's a saying that rock stars attract rock stars and that's so true for Lauren. She's a rock star, so by having her work for you, you get her rock star network of other real estate professionals that help with the entire process. I couldn't be more happy with her guidance and expertise. Any roadblock that appears she immediately knows what to do or who to go to in order to get results. You want her in your corner!
Mary Daly
Lauren is awesome! She went above and beyond for me. Suggested a short term place to stay while my house was built, organized fencing company,and a great handyman. I hope this is my forever home but if I need to buy or sell I would contact Lauren.
Tim S.
Lauren is a top notch agent. She is always available and ready to work. She is exactly the kind of agent we wanted to work with. She brought in an expert to help us get the house staged and ready and referred some excellent contractors to us to do other necessary work. She’s also a super nice person while being a great representative for our interests. At the end of the day that’s exactly what an agent should be.
Cody Freeman
Amazing to work with and exceptionally knowledgeable!
Mike & Bobbi Willard
Bobbi and I bought a home in the Villages in Florida in May 16, then came home to Charlotte and had to sell our house as soon as possible. We found Lauren Fox and she worked her magic and found a buyer after only six days on the market. We closed June 28 and still can’t believe she did it so fast. We would recommend Lauren to our friends and family over any other realitor.
Monica Laidlaw
Lauren was great. She walked me thru each step of the house buying process. I bought a house while still living out of state. I couldn't always be there to handle the details. Lauren jumped in and took charge. The inspection and closing went smoothly.
Rhea Antoine
Lauren was amazing to work with. 32 days from the time we met until we closed on the house with the new buyer. Lauren made every step of the process simple from getting the house ready for the market, to negotiating the price, to handeling the repairs to ensuring it was cleaned prior to the walk through. She literally had everything covered. We’ve moved several times and no one has compared. I wish she was a realtor in every state. I’d use her every time I move if I could. Her customer service and responsiveness are unparalleled!!!
Nicholas Fox
Lauren was excellent throughout the process! She was extremely knowledgeable and able to answer all of our questions. She also did a great job negotiating and got the price of our home down several thousand dollars.
Laura Hewitt
I recently relocated from Connecticut, and if it were not for Lauren I would have never of had such a seamless transition. Based on our initial phone conversation, she immediately knew the area that I would want to live. However, she still drove me around both NC and SC, to enable me to see different neighborhoods to allow us to narrow down our search. Lauren took care of everything for me from negotiating the price of my new home, providing me with a lender that could get the closing done in 30 days, scheduling an appointment for me to visit my daughter’s new school, being at the inspection and calling me on FaceTime to go through the results with the inspector, checking different contractors work for items that I wanted addressed, sending me pictures of the work performed, texting me daily updates, and on and on. She also sent me contact names and numbers for a landscaper, handyman, and cleaning service. After the closing she continued to follow-up on one last open item, making calls daily until it was resolved. In the end she was 100% correct in her initial idea of the neighborhood that I ended up purchasing my home. If you are looking for a realtor due to relocation or even a local move, Lauren Fox will have your back!
Lindsay Hochstetler
Lauren was AMAZING! she was very helpful and so quick with responses to emails and questions. We will definitely be working with her in the future!

Lauren was wonderful! She worked with me on selling my home and buying a new one. My home sold in 23days! She was always available with questions and concerns and so very patient when I would start to stress. I could not have asked for a better realtor.

Our first experience buying our first home was one I would love to forget. It was a nightmare from start to finish with all parties involved, from an inexperienced realtor to a loan officer that ended up being fired days before our closing. We got the brunt of the housing bubble bust in 2008. Needless to say we were scared to do it again. I spent hours researching and talking to realtors that were referred to us. Lauren happened to be one of them. She came highly recommended and the one thing I remember by the two people the referred her was how communicative she was. That was EXACTLY what I wanted and needed. Lauren met all my expectations above and beyond. She held our hand the entire time. She was extremely knowledgeable of the area and current market. She had our home under contract in 3 days and we never felt pressure to come down on our price. We got exactly what we thought our home was worth. She also got us into our dream home at the price we wanted as well. She referred us to reliable professionals (home inspector & mortgage lender) who were really wonderful to work with. Lauren is honest, helpful and a complete joy to work with. I walked away from this experience with a friend. She went above and beyond for our family and I just loved working with her! Patrick and his team with Allen Tate Mortgage were fantastic. A complete night and day experience from the last mortgage company we did business with. He too was honest, knowledgeable, and very helpful. He was always on top of emails and phone calls. Being a small business owner I was dreading the process of getting them all my paperwork, however they had a very user friendly portal where I just had to upload my digital documents and it was seamless and easy. A moment that stuck out to me was when Patrick got a very important document to our sellers realtor on a Sunday. Sundays are a day of rest in the lives of many and I would have never expected that type of customer service from a mortgage consultant. Thank you for restoring my faith in working with mortgage consultants Patrick. Top notch service!

It was my experience that Lauren Fox handles any difficulties head-on, and takes no prisoner; whatever needs to be done to close on a sale, she is on it. I was so impressed with her tenacity and grace. A miracle worker! She held my hand every step of the way and always with a supportive smile. Not to mention all the awesome people she knows... whatever I needed, she knew a great guy to do it. In short, Lauren is my Fairy Godmother... I will be singing Lauren’s name and praises to anyone who mentions they nees a Realtor. She’s your gal!

Lauren was great and stepped up tremendously when things got chaotic.
David & Erin Dunbar
Lauren was amazing to work with!! She made the process of both selling and buying about as painless as it could be. She is very approachable and responded to emails, phone calls, and texts very promptly. She took the time to walk us through all the details of buying and selling and made us feel like she was working only with us. She’s an amazing advocate and always had our best interest in mind. Her honesty and approachability made her incredibly easy to work and get along with.
Rick & Lisa Smith
Lauren Fox is an extremely dedicated agent who takes the time to make her clients her priority. She made our selling experience smooth and painless. Her hard work and expertise is greatly appreciated!
Eric and Kay Smith
My wife and I can't say enough nice things about Lauren Fox. Initially I was on the fence about even needing an agent, but we are so happy that we decided to go with Lauren. She is truly one of the most professional people we have had the pleasure to work with. She was extremely patient in walking us through the process of selling our home. From the initial discovery meetings, to listing it for the right price, to helping us field offers, to helping us through the the inspection and needed repairs, to helping us find a temporary rental, and finally to the day of closing. Lauren was always exceptionally responsive in email, texts, or calls, and we always felt like we had her attention! Thank you Lauren!
Debra Baitz
This was the easiest home we ever purchased because of Lauren Fox and the entire Allen Tate family!!!!!
Rodrigo Oliva
Lauren was excellent realtor, very responsive and attended to all of our needs through our selling process. She took the time to finalized extra details and represented us while we were not in town. Thanks Lauren!!!!
Matt Hatfield
This is the second time we used Lauren as our real estate agent. She was awesome, as usual. She helped with coordinating inspections, and quotes for work, which is especially helpful when your life is already so busy with packing and organizing a move. Lauren has always been a great advocate for her clients and was able to sell our house for the highest amount in our neighborhood in 4 days. We were also able buy a house that has neighboring properties selling for $70k-100k over and above the cost of ours. Could not have been more happy with the transactions. Thanks for all that you do!
Becky
We were impressed by Lauren the first time that we met her and that respect only grew as we got to know her during the process of selling our beautiful Berewick home. Lauren's knowledge of the local market is unparalleled, but more importantly, she is a huge advocate of the area and of the houses she sells. So many realtors sit back and let the house sell itself, but not Lauren. From the start, she was very proactive about getting the word out about our house and was relentless in her pursuit of feedback to help us. In large part due to this hustle, she sold our house for full price in less than 3 weeks! My absolute favorite part about working with Lauren was how responsive she is. Every single time that I texted, emailed, or called her, she responded immediately. There were times that I was frustrated with the process and she would call just to reassure me about what was going on. I have worked with several realtors in the past and never had such a great level of communication as I did with Lauren. Truly, we cannot say enough good things about Lauren Fox. We feel so incredibly fortunate that we met her and were able to work with her to sell our house. Do yourself a favor and call her to represent you. She is truly a pleasure to work with! Thank you, Lauren!
David Simpson
I have purchased close to 2 dozen homes in my life, investment and otherwise, and Lauren Fox is the best Realtor I have ever worked with.
Sari & Alan
We were so fortunate to meet Lauren! This was a difficult time for our family and Lauren was so wonderful and kind. She has the knowledge, patience and real estate experience that made her a pleasure to work with! We received and accepted our offer 9 days after listing and closed on our home 2 months after signing the contract. Fantastic experience ! We highly recommend Lauren Fox!!
Brad Marcy
Lauren did a great job helping sell our home. Being that we had already relocated, Lauren did a great job managing the property for us. Lauren was in constant communication with us and addressed all of our needs.

Leaving Charlotte, a city I grew to love over the past four years, was not a decision I wanted to make and one that I had hoped would take place many years in the future, but alas, my career took me to South Florida. During my time in the Queen City, I made several friends who happened to work in real estate and whom all offered to help me sell the dream house that I had custom built in 2013. Not wanting to choose between which friend to hire to sell my home, I took the recommendation of a work colleague and contacted Lauren and another agent who was referred to me by my relocation company. There was absolutely no comparison between Lauren and the other agent who both came to present their proposals. Lauren came well prepared with a full market analysis and tools to sell my home that just couldn’t compete with the other agent. From the moment I met Lauren, I was impressed with her professionalism, in-depth knowledge of the Steelcreek market, her drive to ensure every need, question and expectation were met or exceeded and I can’t leave out her outstanding personality! Lauren scheduled a professional photographer and had my home professionally measured to help my home stand out in a competitive market. She kept me updated at every step of the process and was always accessible by phone, text or email. Lauren was very helpful throughout the entire negotiation process and right up through the closing. If anyone is looking for an incredible realtor in the Charlotte market, I highly recommend working with Lauren. She will not only be your partner throughout this entire process, but will also be your advocate and a trusted advisor. Should my career ever bring me back to the QC, I will absolutely work with Lauren again without any reservation—she is truly the best!
Chris Haley
Lauren was a pleasure to work with. She made selling my house worry-free and was always available for any questions I had. She was very thorough and walked me through the whole process. I would highly recommend her!!!!
Melissa Beadle
We recently moved to North Carolina and being from out of state, the process was a little different from New York. From the first phone call from Lauren, she was quick to explain the house buying procedure in North Carolina and was quick to answer all of our questions. We looked at properties, signed our offer, and closed on our home in one month. We have never had such a quick experience in buying a home. Lauren was prompt with responses and was there for us every step of the way. We would recommend Lauren to anyone who would like a stress-free home buying experience!!
Jean McAllister
Lauren's can do attitude and excitement was infectious. Even when our first sale fell through, she was upbeat and kept us positive. Her knowledge of our market really helped us with pricing and with negotiations. She is very professional and trustworthy. The selling process, even with our relo package, was easy. Thank you Lauren.
Brian Carson
Your helpful and assisting attitude really helped us and encouraged us and we really appreciate you. Your great attitude is a rare commodity in the Real Estate/ Mortgage Business!
Melissa Noebes
This was my fifth home purchase in the last 10 years, and by far the best experience ever. Lauren Fox is an excellent buyer's agent. She is efficient and very well-prepared. For each property we visited, she presented wonderful detail on the surrounding community, proximity to shopping options, commute times to my office, and other points of interest relative to my needs. Further, Lauren provided great counsel during the negotiation and inspection process, right through the closing, and continues to follow up to ensure we are settling in well! She takes the time to listen to your needs and responds to your concerns. You can tell she is personally invested in ensuring your family finds the ideal home. I give Lauren my highest recommendation.
Steven Shugrue
I Steven M. Shugrue recently had my townhome for sale with your fine company. My agent was Lauren Fox. Lauren Fox is a true professional. She is very organized and made sure I understood everything before coming on board with Tate Realtor. Her tenacity to get my home to be more attractive and more sellable was outstanding. I was impressed with Her highly pleasing personality which was a asset in getting my home under contract and sold in less then one month. I would and will recommend Lauren Fox to anyone interested in selling their home. Once again THANK YOU Lauren Fox and Tate Realtor. Steven M. Shugrue

Lauren Fox was my real estate agent for a home I sold in Fort Mill, SC October 2016. The property was on the market from start to finish approximately 3 months. Lauren is friendly and engaging with the perfect personality for her profession as well as having up to date knowledge of the real estate market. What I particularly liked was her willingness to consider the sellers' viewpoints and opinions and work in partnership to get the best buy for your home and at the same time be realistic in the current market. Don't hesitate to call her to represent you.
Relocating to a new city is almost always a challenging experience, particularly when one is older and the move is a personal decision and not driven by a company’s request. However, working with a realtor like Lauren Fox certainly made our move to Charlotte much easier and better in every way. We were not in a rush to move so Lauren patiently worked with us more than a year. She listened to our desires in terms of home specifications and locations while always keeping in mind our budget. Lauren researched the residential real estate market continuously and kept us informed about the most current listings. In addition, she provided data from the Chambers of Commerce in the communities where we were interested in moving. Even after closing, Lauren provided us with lists of all type of resources, such as restaurants in the area, churches, parks, etc. I don’t want to imagine what our move would have been like if we had not been so fortunate to have worked with a realtor such as Lauren; the person who always has an answer or who works diligently to get one. In short, Lauren Fox is a “gem” of a realtor!
Shirley and Robert Hines
Robert and I was so satisfied with your service of excellence, no matter what area we wanted to look in you never tried to steer us away. Thank you again for answering every question we needed answered. You truly are a great Realtor thank you for your service.
Dani Rainer
Lauren was a pleasure to work with and picked up anytime I needed assistance with our client. I would love to work with her again in the future.
Jessica marshall
I loved working with Lauren she made the process easy, smooth, and she had a personal touch throughout the whole process.
Eric Hall
I can't thank Lauren Fox enough for making my home buying and the selling of my previous home an amazing experience! I will definitely say she was heaven sent. I appreciate the hard works, professionalism, patience, pleasant attitude and most of all the knowledge!
Carrie Hatfield
Lauren was wonderful to work with from the very beginning. We wanted to get the house on the market immediately and she had it listed (with pictures, etc.) in less than 3 days. She was great at helping us negotiate with the buyer and figure out the best selling price for our home. Unlike other sellers in the same development we were able to get top dollar for our house. If you are looking for a fantastic real estate agent either to buy or sell a home I would definitely recommend her to anyone.
Patricia Corcoran
Lauren gave me great advice on how to show my home and we had a buyer shortly after listing it. She is very personable and knowledgeable. The next time I buy or sell a home Lauren will be the first person I call.
Mary-Frances Winters
Lauren is the best! I can't say enough good things about her. She is professional, knowledgeable, dependable, personable and goes above and beyond to ensure that her clients needs are met. She always follows up right away and listens to any concerns that you might have. I highly recommend Lauren Fox if you are looking to buy or build a home in the Charlotte area.
Lauren Bell
Lauren Bocchino Fox was so dedicated and helped my dad in his search for a new home every step of the way. Her patience and dedication to him were unwavering. Thank you so much for helping him start the next chapter of his life in the Carolina's. If you are new to Charlotte, Lauren will do whatever it takes to find you your home!
David Kohler
Lauren performs her job at an unparalleled level. Patience should be her middle name. Lauren and I looked at more houses than I care to admit to.....I was not any easy client to satisfy! Never did she try to persuade me into looking at or buying something that I was not interested in. What started out as what I thought was going to be a quick find turned out to be a marathon.....a 5 month journey. I was very fortunate to find Lauren Fox. She has met and exceeded all my expectations as a real estate agent and as a person.
Jennifer Hunt
Lauren was such a pleasure to work with. She helped me and my sisters sell my Mom's condo after her death. With 3 sellers and an old, outdated condo, her hands were full. Yet she gave us great advice about getting the condo looking its best while not breaking the bank, as well as pricing the condo to sell quickly. She was always available to me by text, email, or phone, and was quick to respond. Lauren assured us she would help and handle anything we needed, as she definitely outperformed my expectations, down to the last hours before closing. I don't think the sale, which happened in a week, could have gone any smoother. Thanks, Lauren, and I look forward to working with you again in the future.
Dianne Rogers
Lauren was instrumental in assisting me in finding a home for my father who was relocating from Boston. She was always available and willing to take care of even the smallest details. Even though my father had a Massachusetts realtor helping him sell his home in Boston, it was Lauren that came through with how to transfer the money to purchase the home in NC. She responded to emails, phone calls and texts very promptly. She understood exactly what we were looking for and didn't waste our time on homes that were not a fit. She has a welcoming and easy personality so it was a pleasure to deal with her. I would use her exclusively if I ever decide to sell my home and buy another one. Extremely happy with her professionalism and service.
Chris Dallas
Lauren was excellent to work with! She has a lot of natural drive and energy which lends itself well to her choice to pursue a career in real estate. She helped us navigate all the steps and details to buy a new home, while selling our current home. It was an excellent experience and I would highly recommend Lauren!
Travis Dowell
I am very pleased at the outcome of my recent real estate transaction with Allen Tate and their agent, Lauren Fox. As a first time home seller, the entire process was very intimidating to me initially, and I was not completely sure how to go about it. There are not really any "training manuals", but I had sought from the start an agent that could help me along the way with all of the details, and reassure me it was ok in the process, which Lauren did in an excellent way! From the very beginning stages of collecting the information needed, establishing the price, getting home repairs made, accommodating my travel schedule and arranging to be at my property as needed, even when I wanted a reassurance that my home was secure while I was away after a showing, Lauren went the extra mile to ensure I was taken care of. Much of her personal, not just professional time, was invested in this transaction. I will never forget it. Still also, as we showed the house multiple times on some days, and sorted through the feedback, the initial offer came and went, and shortly thereafter another one, which was "the one"! Lauren walked me through as a coach would with his baseball team step by step, and reassured me that we were doing the right thing. I couldn't have done it without her! I consider myself an accomplished businessman, with years of expertise and success, but I was not as prepared as I thought for selling my beloved home and with many emotional ties to it, Lauren helped me each day, day in/day out, in the very complex and lengthy process. Overall, I appreciate the professionalism, the coaching, the constant follow up on each detail, either big or small, and the support over 2 1/2 months that Lauren provided from beginning to end. Next of all, given a busy and hectic life, I appreciated too all of the technology features that Allen Tate employed to help save time and improve the overall experience, from the nice website with my home shown there, to the professional photography, to the inclusion of a home warranty for my place, along with DocuSign, not to mention the great surveyor used to confirm all was right before we listed. In summary, Allen Tate is my real estate agency for life, and Lauren Fox will go down in my book as the very best realtor one could possibly have. I'll be telling friends and family about my experience, and wanted to say "Thank you!", not only to my real estate agent Lauren, but also to the management team of her local office that runs a "dynamite" operation. It's second to none and much appreciated! Thank you again. Best regards, Travis Dowell PS: The photo included is one of me presenting Lauren with a very small token of my appreciation, several dozen homemade Cowboy Cookies. They are a family tradition and only shared with those within our close circle. They are a Texas tradition, and one that began with Former First Lady Laura Bush. With a mix of Oats, Chocolate, Craisins, Coconut, and Pecans, they are dynamite! They were enjoyed by all of the Allen Tate team here in the Steele Creek office during a meeting as an extension of my appreciation.
Lynn & Ken Lauder
Lauren was great to work with. She went above & beyond to help us especially since we were from out of town.
Jill Hipskind
Lauren was wonderful to work with. She was always positive, responsive and on top of things. She's knowledgeable about the laws and the details. She went above and beyond to help us in every way. She works hard to make her clients happy!
Jeana Farlow
Working with Lauren was wonderful! She has a very positive, can-do attitude which is incredibly helpful when buying a home. She is more than willing to go the extra mile whenever she can. We looked at houses all over the city before we decided on our new neighborhood. She was happy to show us each house and really listened to what we wanted. Choosing Lauren to be your agent is the best decision you will make during your home buying experience. We will definitely be recommending her to everyone we know!
