About me

Lauren Sawyer Foster is a native of Columbia, SC. She attended the College of Charleston and earned a degree in International Business.

Lauren has been a loan originator since 2010 and specializes in new home construction, FHA, VA, and USDA rural housing products. Lauren is a member of the Home Builders Association, Sales and Marketing Council, Junior League of Columbia, and Kemopalooza Board at Palmetto Health.

Lauren and Chelsea were great throughout the entire process. I never needed for any information like often happens with transactions like this. Lauren made herself available 24/7 and went above and beyond expectations. The online Portal was a nice touch as well and was useful when needed to reference documents. I will definitely be recommending this team to others.
