About me

Lauren Sawyer Foster is a native of Columbia, SC. She attended the College of Charleston and earned a degree in International Business. Upon graduating in 2006, Lauren worked with a new construction builder and developer. This allowed her to obtain vast knowledge in the home building process, real estate sales and closings.

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. In her spare time she enjoys spending time with her family and friends, playing tennis, and running.

Lauren and her team were wonderful. They were responsive to our questions and great guiding us through the home loan process. I love the online portal that makes uploading documents simple and easy.

I have had the pleasure with doing business with Lauren and her team for about 4 years now. The Foster Team is very diligent and thorough with every client that we send their way. We have had deals fall out 72 hours before closing and Lauren and her team were able to save the deal with no additional hiccups. We cannot recommend her enough.
