I have known Lauren Rickard for many years and have never hesitated to utilize her as my REALTOR. I often recommend her to other friends as they seek to sell or purchase property up and down the length of the Outer Banks because of her excellence. She represented my family in the selling and purchasing of our homes, represented our church in the selling and purchasing of commercial properties, and she most recently represented a nonprofit, for which I am a board member, in the purchase of a commercial property. Lauren is punctual, communicative, professional, and thorough. She ensures her clients are well informed and understand all aspects of the real estate transaction that is taking place. She is like a rare treasure you find on the beach.
