Description
// resourceful. conscientious. caring.
Originally from the Midwest (and a passionate Cubs fan to prove it), Laurie Kaufman began her career in real estate over 25 years ago when she purchased her first investment property — a fourplex in Downtown Boulder. Laurie self-manages her investment properties and uses her personal experience to educate her clients on the value of home ownership to diversify their financial portfolios. Laurie’s twenty-plus years in real estate provide her clients peace of mind, expert guidance and the kind of partnership that feels like working with a close friend.
Laurie’s educational background with a Master’s degree in Counseling provides her the foundation needed to understand and support her clients during what is an exciting yet stressful life stage — buying and/or selling a house. Her natural ability to relate and understand her client’s needs truly makes her unique to the industry. This, paired with her insider perspective, is invaluable to buyers and sellers alike. Her longevity in the industry based on a pragmatic and solution-oriented approach has earned her a reputation as a trusted advisor in the real estate community. Her primary role is to provide solid professional counsel to her clients with one of their greatest assets — real estate.
Personally, Laurie loves the energy and excitement living in the vibrant college town has to offer. One of her favorite pastimes is rooting on the CU Buffs and watching Ralphie storm Folsom field before kick-off. Laurie spends her spare time hiking the gorgeous Boulder County open space with her feisty long-haired Dachshund, Pedro, or taking in an independent film at The Boe Theater.

Testimonials
I highly recommend using Laurie as your Real Estate Agent. She was very responsive and great communicator, very personable and likable. I felt like I was her only client as she was very available when I needed her. During house walk throughs she objectively pointed out positives and negatives which I felt was tremendous value. She definitely had my best interest and negotiated a great price for the house I chose.
THE BEST. Laurie sold our home in less than a week for over listing price. Laurie did an incredible amount of diligence in advance of the listing, she set us up for success. She researched comparable sales, suggested updates to the home, and planned 3D tour technology. Laurie has impressive experience in the Boulder area, and I recommend her specifically for her Boulder expertise. She went above and beyond our expectations. Laurie was extremely responsive throughout. Laurie is the best of the best!
Laurie is the consummate professional and has tremendous expertise as a real estate agent. She gave us recommendations and provided support in getting our home ready to show including providing staging and cleaning services. We ended up with 5 offers in a matter of 3 days. One was 10% over the asking price! We were able to even count on a back up offer in case the offer we went with didn’t go through. We truly believe that we got the most out of our home that we could have via Laurie’s services. We used her as our selling agent but she was recommended to us by two individuals that had used her as a buyers agent and were super happy with the results. We highly recommend her and will be referring her to others in need of selling or buying a home in the Colorado front range.
Laurie helped us sell our old house and buy a new one. She is so easy to work with and makes our challenging transition buttery smooth. She works hard and is always there when we need her. Her professional advice saved us lots of money and time. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy realtor with great local connections and profound knowledge of the market.
I have used Laurie to buy/sell three properties and I have been
so happy with her professional service and winning results. She
is very knowledgeable in the local market, has extensive
experience in negotiations, and has a multitude of contacts in
the area. You couldn't find an agent that would do a better job
for you. Laurie is the best!
The Boulder real estate market is stressful and time-sensitive.
Fortunately, we had Laurie Kaufman as our agent. Laurie is
knowledgeable, intuitive, supportive, and professional. She was
always available by phone, which helped enormously. She was
easy to work with and always upbeat, even when we were
discouraged. We are newcomers to Boulder County, and she
gave us an insider's guide to the city. Laurie is trustworthy and
honest and you won't find a better agent in Boulder.
Laurie is simply the Best. Professional, highly knowledgeable and so well
connected. The connections and trust she has within the real estate
community is what gets the deal done over other agents. The added plus is
she has a whole team of people she can pull in to assist in various aspects
of the deal. Don't over think it, just go with Laurie.
Last fall I wrote a review detailing how amazing Laurie was when
I sold my home. Now that she has represented me as a buyer, I
am once again blown away by what an outstanding
agent (and person) she is. When I found my dream home the home I just
had to have had an incredible amount of interest from other buyers,
followed by many offers. I was so impressed with Laurie's knowledge and
skill in writing a competitive offer in this current market. She knew exactly
how to make the offer stand out among so many others. I still can't believe
that this beautiful townhouse is mine, and I really don't think it would have
happened without Laurie.
