Blessed Life Group, Keller Williams Realty, Inc., Laura Ivy Blessing

Lauren C. From Blessed Life Group went above and beyond to make my move from California to Austin a pleasant one. She was extremely knowledgeable. I was able to answer all of my questions regarding taxes, and the logistics of the move and transaction.
Lauren also gave great recommendations for an inspector and handyman. I highly recommend her services.

Above and Beyond Service. Our experience with the Blessed Life Group was stellar. Their service exceeded our expectations. Lauren Cowan and the team made us feel confident about trusting them to sell our custom home. Lauren responded quickly to our questions, and all communication was done in a timely manner. The marketing was excellent, and we especially liked the professional pictures that were taken of the house. They showcased it in the best way. We highly recommend The Blessed Life Group and will refer them to friends and family.

A great experience! We recently had the pleasure of working with Lauren during our house-hunting journey, and we couldn't be more pleased with the experience. She has extensive knowledge, and remarkable patience (we were probably not the easiest clients ;). Lauren was incredibly adaptable, always ready to refine our search criteria and explore new options that aligned with our changing preferences.

I was particularly impressed with her responsiveness. Whether we had a question, needed advice, or wanted to visit a property, she was always quick to act and made us feel valued throughout the entire process.

Another added bonus was her many connections - brokers, inspectors, contractors etc. This made many parts of the process easier than it could have been.

We are grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone shopping!

Lauren at Blessed Life Group is an angel! I can’t recommend Lauren enough. My experience working with her and her team couldn’t have gone smoother. She knows her stuff and the market like the back of her hand and broke everything down for us so we knew exactly what to expect. She went out of her way to make sure our home was sold for top dollar and kept us updated every step of the way. Despite a stressful time in our lives, she made the process simple and easeful and I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you, Lauren and the Blessed Life team!

While Laura and her team at Blessed Life Realty are amazing at finding you a good home or helping you sell yours, my experience is with her as our property manager. For over a decade, Laura has seamlessly made certain our house in south Austin has been leased. She has handled water damage remediation when a pipe burst, and even a renovation. All the while, managing vendors, overseeing construction, appliances, picking paint colors, and more. I truly believe no one does more for their clients than Laura and her team.

Fantastic group to work with. They helped get us a new home, secure a loan, and even found tenants for our previous home to use as a rental. Walked me through the cost analysis which enabled my wife and I to make a great financial decision! Even after starting our home search 3 times prior, each time deciding not to buy, they supported our decision to wait until the right home and market became available. 5 STARS.

Great realtor! Lauren was fantastic to work with. She was responsive, communicative and was able to sell our home in a tough environment and get top value.

Thanks, Lauren!

Last November my wife and I were looking to move from CA to TX. We were first time home buyers and we had no idea where to start. We knew we wanted new construction and we had a general idea of the area we wanted to buy a home in. We were put in contact with Lauren Cowan from Blessed Life Group, Keller Williams Realty, Inc.. It was the best thing that could have happened to us. Lauren was amazing! We came into the Austin area to look for homes and Lauren drove us around to every community to look at homes/lots all day, everyday, for a week helping us find the perfect home. Lauren handled contacting builders/salesperson(s), asked all the questions we didn't know to ask and ensured we understood every step of the process. With Lauren's help my wife and I were able to sign a contract that week for our new home, we closed in May and we are now moved in. The attention my wife and I received from Lauren was second to none. Lauren has been responsive to every question or inquiry we had/have. Lauren is a consummate real estate professional who I would recommend to anyone looking to buy a home. Thank you Lauren!!!

Best Realtor. Chrystal Pardue recently helped me find my forever home and was absolutely amazing. I had actually met her 3 years ago when I was looking for an agent to sell my old home when I moved out of state and contacted her again 6 months ago when wanting to find a short term rental to move back to the Austin area while trying to find my perfect new home. As someone that browsed the housing market listings on daily basis for over a year, I didn't know if I would ever find a new home in my price range with very particular specifications of what I was wanting in the location I wanted. It didn't take Chrystal long to know my likes and dislikes, before finding, offering, negotiating, and signing a contract on new home. Definitely a realtor you want on your side of negotiations! After signing the contract, she was still there every step of the way assisting and answering any questions I had until closing on home. Even after moving in, she checked in on me to see how everything was going and still assisting as needed. Hopefully I won't need any realtor services in the foreseeable future, but I would choose Chrystal Pardue every time and will definitely recommend to any of my friends, family, and co-workers.

If you’re looking for a professional, experienced, and knowledgeable realtor, Lauren is it. She really cares about her clients and helps them achieve their goals. She is definitely a top notch realtor in the central Texas area. She knows the market well and helped us sell and buy several homes in the Austin area. Highly recommend Lauren and the Blessing Team.

Lauren Cowan and the Blessed Life Group were amazing from start to finish in our home buying and selling process! We were nervous about selling the house we had lived in for so long, and Lauren understood that and worked with us to ensure we got a great offer and even helped us with staging and getting the house ready to sell! Lauren also went above and beyond in the home buying process to make sure we got exactly what we wanted in our new home. Her patience with all of our questions and her knowledge of the Austin (and surrounding area) market were invaluable when it came to our purchase! We live in our dream home thanks to her and the Blessed Life Group!!

We loved working with Lauren to sell our home. In the beginning she took the time to explain everything to us including how the process would proceed. She was always available when we had any questions or concerns. In fact she went above and beyond what we expected an agent to do. Especially during the high traffic days when showing our home. Marty and I would highly recommend Lauren and her entire group!

Shea Is a True Gem
I don't think you have to be a rocket scientist to understand or appreciate how volatile the real estate market has been in recent years. When you add a hot market like Austin to that scenario, you need good guidance and someone who will be honest and still help you sell at the right price. Shea followed me through my entire home buying and selling process in Austin. When I bought in 2019, I don't think any of us could have predicted the insanity of a pandemic skyrocketing prices the way they did - it felt like living in two different worlds from when I bought and sold, and each time Shea was able to navigate the experiences and pave a clear path for execution. She not only helped me find a new lender in the beginning who saved me a ton of money, but I called her my therapist by the end of it because it's such an emotional adventure buying a home in a place where everyone wants to live. When we sold the same house in the summer of 2022, we ran into all kinds of struggles and Shea was dealing with someone who really didn't know what they wanted or how to get to the other side of selling. I trust her immensely, and I always know she will do what's in my best interest. Shea and I are both in sales in different industries, but we are unique in that we don't subscribe to these archaic rules about what it means to be sales-y and make a buck. It's all about relationships and trust and traversing waters that you can rest assured will change. I cannot recommend her with anymore gusto - if I could give you 11/10 stars I would, Shea! I will close this long winded declaration by saying that because of Shea, I sold my house with an excellent profit and am now on the beach. I mean, if you're going to leave Austin, where else is there?

I purchased my first townhome in southwest Austin in 2007, and it truly would not have been possible without Laura Blessing. She made the process smooth and virtually stress-free. The market presented us with many challenges then, but Laura’s knowledge and experience helped us navigate them with ease. She found the perfect home for me then and again in 2018 for my now family. Laura helped us submit a strong offer (which won over multiple offers in Westlake!). We’ve built a great relationship over the years, helping me with milestone decisions and she always answers all my questions honestly.
She's fierce, intelligent, and knowledgeable!
You want Laura and her team in your corner when you're buying or selling in the growing Austin market. It's tough out there, but Laura will undoubtedly be the person you need to lead the way. Thanks again for everything, Laura!

Laura Blessing and her team have been our realtor of choice for over a decade and have assisted us with selling a home when we decided to downsize after 15 years - while simultaneously finding one that suited our Empty Nester lifestyle. Talk about thorough! Laura and her team are experts when it comes to tracking comps, staging a home to show off amenities and considering unknown factors before submitting a bid. Every aspect of the changing market is evaluated in order to provide us with the best contract possible.

They were always there for me during both my buying and selling of my house. Lauren and Laura were always generous with their time and knowledge. Anytime I needed anything they wouldn't hesitate to reach out to me. They worked efficiently and did everything they could to make my transactions a good experience.

Lauren was our realtor and made the whole process as painless as possible. She sold our old home at a terrific rate and helped us once we closed on our newly constructed home. Lauren answered every question we had and held our hand through the entire process. Even after everything was done, she stayed in contact to make sure we were happy. Lauren isn't just our realtor, but now our friend as well. We recommend her every chance we can!

Chrystal Pardue was so helpful in finding the perfect house for us. We had a very specific list of things we wanted and did not want and she worked hard finding houses that met our demands. We would definitely use her again if we move. Our daughter used Chrystal in October 2022 and she found them a perfect house as well.

We have worked with Laura Blessing and the Blessed Life Group on multiple investment properties. Not only do they keep us well informed about the Austin, and surrounding markets, they do it with such professionalism. Her frequent communication and market knowledge has helped us maximize our profits and has also given us some new tips and tricks that we are currently using in our property today. It has been a continuous pleasure working with such a powerful team!

We worked with Lauren Cowan and Laura Blessing to sell our previous house and purchase our current home. They were an amazing team and we loved working with both of them and Diane from their office! We had used two different realtors to sell our house a few years back, during a time when there were lots of new constructions competing with existing homes. Our experience with the second realtor was not positive at all. He did not return calls or messages in a timely fashion. I would think in real estate, not hearing back from a realtor at all or waiting days to get a simple response is not the norm. We received a card from the Blessed Life Group and the message came across very genuine. We decided to take a chance and contacted them. That was the best decision we've made. Not only did they help us successfully sell our house, but they also helped us find a house in our dream neighborhood. The market was highly competitive, and Lauren and Laura went out of their way to help us put our offer in. They provided needed information so we can make an informed decision on how much to offer on the house. They acted quickly and continued to work with us way into the night. I still remember texting with them at 10 PM rushing to get the offer in. They kept us really informed with both the sale and the purchase. Their communication is prompt and thorough. We love our new home and we absolutely love our neighborhood! Thank you to the Blessed Life Group for handling everything and making the transition as smooth as possible for us! We continue to stay in touch because we value this relationship.
