The Distinction
YOUR HOME. YOUR FUTURE. MY PASSION.
Lauren Fournier is a passionate real estate agent whose greatest wish is to help every family find the perfect South Carolina home. Finding the right home is no small feat, but making this connection with each family is something that Lauren cares about deeply. With grace and tenacity, she dedicates herself to the personal journey of every client, seeking to match each with the relaxing, beautiful home they have dreamed of in the elegant South Carolina communities she serves. As a native South Carolinian, Lauren grew up in Little River, SC, with a love for the picturesque coasts of her beloved state. Like many of her clients, Lauren is a golf enthusiast who started her career in sales when she was 16 years old. After years in sales, she saw an opportunity in 2016 to transition into real estate and joyously jumped into the precious life of real estate. Lauren has a unique ability to understand her clients, especially those who are seeking a home that nurtures golf as part of the family lifestyle. Lauren met her husband on the golf course and they now share two beautiful children after nine years of marriage. What Lauren is most passionate about in her real estate work is the opportunity to build relationships with people. She takes the time to get to know each client to truly understand their goals and vision of a dream house in South Carolina. Clients describe her as a kind person, but also as a hard-working go-getter. She will go above and beyond to market a home and be there for clients. She does what it takes to ensure a client’s home is perfect before photography or a showing. Today, you’ll find Lauren connecting clients with luxury homes throughout coastal SC. She specializes in the entire Grand Strand, residing in Pawleys, and enjoying the beautiful lifestyles available, including breathtaking beaches, boats, and exquisite local dining. When Lauren is not selling homes or on the golf course, she spends her time raising her children, attending church, and enjoying the stunning local scenery from the water on the family boat. Lauren Fournier is a wonderful local agent who will passionately pursue your goals.

We were looking for a second home and Lauren was great to work with. She got to know us and what we wanted. She researched properties for us and only presented ones that she knew we would want to see. Lauren is very personable and great to work with. She ensured that we were happy with our choice and walked us through each of step of ownership. I would highly recommend Lauren as your best choice of agent.

Our experience with Lauren Fournier was exemplary! As our former residence was under contract, we were under pressure to find a new place in short order and were focused on Pawleys Island. Lauren went out of her way to swiftly get us a viewing of our first choice. From that day till closing, she was professional, knowledgeable, and, most importantly to us, personable. We highly recommend her.

Lauren recently sold our property in DeBordieu. She was a rockstar to work with. Lauren met any challenges involving negotiations with an incredible attitude and a determination to make it work. She helped us determine what we needed to do to stage the house so it would sell quickly, and it did!
Lauren is organized and very personable. She has great attention to detail and stays on top of her properties. She is a South Carolina native and knows the area extremely well.
