Every once in a while, someone’s story reminds me why we built this team the way we did. Today I want you to meet Laura Lazaro. When we sat down, her first line hit me. “The system this team has is outstanding. It is unbeatable.” That was not where her journey started.

When agent Laura Lazaro first entered real estate, it was after a frustrating home-buying experience. She believed she could deliver the service her community deserved, but like many solo agents, she found herself on a constant roller coaster.

Deals came inconsistently, income fluctuated, and staying on top of every lead and open house felt exhausting. Despite years in the business and a solid work ethic, Laura realized she lacked the structure, accountability, and tools needed to create a stable, scalable business.

That changed when she joined our team. For the first time, she had systems that worked together, Zillow Flex for steady lead flow, RealScout for smart buyer alerts, and a responsive support network including a transaction coordinator, marketing coordinator, client concierge, and ISA. Instead of feeling alone, she had a community that collaborated and celebrated wins together.

Today, Laura credits her success not only to technology and systems but to the team culture, which is a blend of positivity, professionalism, and genuine care. Surrounded by high performers, she’s raised her own standards and grown her confidence, even closing a $2 million deal and taking on higher-end listings.

If you want to learn more about our team, reach out to me at (714) 451-4543 or [email protected]. I’d be happy to talk with you about how to reach your full potential and move your real estate career forward.
