Inside the partnership
What Lauren brings to the table.
Lauren represents buyers and sellers in Sunnyside and Sunnyside Gardens and shares Long Island City buyer and seller representation with Ivan. As an owner and investor, her work is grounded in the details generic market reports miss: the block, the building, the line, the light, the architecture and the choices that shape a buyer’s response.
Her Long Island City practice includes more than 100 transactions at Citylights, giving her unusually deep pattern recognition around the building, its lines, monthly economics, buyer questions, board process and resale positioning.
She created The Sunnyside Gardens Guide to make original neighborhood research useful and accessible. Within the team, she turns that same curiosity into clearer preparation, stronger property narratives and marketing designed around the audience most likely to act.
Her buyer practice applies that same building and neighborhood intelligence to purchases in Long Island City, Sunnyside and Sunnyside Gardens, while Ivan extends the team’s buyer representation across New York City with a luxury and new-development focus.
