    About Lauren Bond

    Broker, Owner (13 years experience) Specialties: Buyer's Agent, Listing Agent, Relocation, Home Building Hello! Thank you for taking the time to consider me as your real estate consultant. I work hard for my clients, focusing my practice on knowledge/education, technology and marketing, and above all else, quality service. I started my real estate career as an investor in 2005, owning and managing my 13 rental units. In 2007 I got my Real Estate License in California and began helping people achieve their own real estate goals. During the Great Recession, I understood that I had to work harder and smarter than my competitors to stay in business ...It forced me to think outside the box. In 2008, I started a Real Estate rehab partnership that bought abandoned properties and turned them back into great homes for buyers. In 2010, I decided to make a big move to Montana ...the Big Sky and fresh air were calling me. I started my real estate business in Billings in 2010, from scratch. Again, by hard work, determination and quality service, I went from not knowing a soul in Montana (or any of the street names), to building a thriving business, earning the top production awards in my company, being honored by my association as Rookie of the Year, and growing my reputation with my loyal, repeat clients and referrals. As a transplant (originally from Montreal, Canada, then California), I can relate to people who are relocating here, and give them a unique level of support and resources. I CHOSE to live here, and do everything I can to support the health and growth of this community. I am an President of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Yellowstone County, past board member of Billings Petroleum Club and Billings Association of Realtors, was an active member of the Billings Chamber of Commerce and NextGen, and a previous volunteer for Big Brothers Big Sisters and Make-A-Wish Foundation. I represent home buyers, sellers and investors, and have experience working with short sales, foreclosures and new construction. I have worked with one of Billings' premier home builders, Bob Pentecost, for 7 years, representing him on all his new construction. I look forward to serving you!

    Lauren is a true professional. She knows the business thoroughly. She responded quickly to all of my questions and concerns. She helped me find the best financing as well as the best insurance. She had excellent people to refer me to with some repairs. Lauren was recommended to me by a friend and I will highly recommend her to others.

    Laureen is the only realtor I have used for my last two homes to buy AND sell. She is extremely helpful and knowledgeable on the Billings Montana market! Lauren is the most trustworthy person l have meet in the entire state of Montana. She is efficient, caring and simply fabulous as a realtor and friend! She will become your friend thru the mortgage process and be there thru every step...for you. I give her an A++ for a recommendation.

    I have worked with Lauren over the last 12 years in 2 states buying and selling real estate. She is an absolute professional who has had complete integrity and professionalism in all our dealings. Her in depth knowledge of our local markets was always very impressive. She is very astute and sensitive when negotiating prices whether representing the buyer or seller. She factually represents local comps in the area, market trends and brings a calmness to what can be very emotional discussions. Her interaction with fellow agents and brokers is at the highest level of mutual respect. I have never seen her compromise her values in search of a commission. I highly recommend Lauren Bond for your consideration.

    It is with great disappointment that I write this review of Lauren Bond. We had previously built our home with the help of Lauren when she was with Century 21. We gave little thought to when we hired her to sell that same home 5 years later. That was a mistake. We had a very bad experience working with Lauren throughout the entire process of selling our home with her as our listing agent. She consistently failed to meet our expectations through our home sale process. She reliably had bad communication with us regarding even the simplest details. Our difficult experience came to a head when she failed to put our home back on the market (after we had a deal fall through) in the timeframe that was communicated to us. She was then out of town and unavailable. I heard from another agent that our house was not on the market. I attempted to fire Lauren, as we lost a precious weekend to have our home available for sale. She held us hostage to our listing agreement with her and would not let us out of our contract.Now in an uncomfortable working relationship, and once our home was vacant, she continued to drop the ball. She assured us that once our home was vacant she would step up and take care of the little details. Long story short, it didnt happen. It was a very uncomfortable transaction. I wish we had gone with another agency.

    Our experience with Lauren was phenomenal. As first-time homebuyers, she made sure that we understood every step of the process and felt comfortable with our decisions. She was extremely friendly during our first meeting and within minutes it is easy to pick up on her intelligence and market savvy. When we had issues during closing with some of our contingencies being met, she immediately went up to bat for us and made sure that everything we asked for was taken care of promptly.My girlfriend and I are so thankful for her professionalism, intellect, and personableness.
