As a fellow Realtor, I have the highest respect for Laura and the way they conduct their business. Their professionalism, market knowledge, and genuine care for their clients truly set them apart. It’s always a pleasure to collaborate with an agent who communicates clearly, advocates strongly, and handles every step of the process with integrity.

I have worked with Laura since 2017. She has helped us find 2 homes and sold two homes all in a community, Brentwood, we were new to. Since first meeting her we noted how well she listens to our requirements and the specifics of what we wanted in location. All of the homes she showed us fit our needs and location. When we found we wanted to be in a senior community with lots of activities, she not only helped us sell our existing home but purchase a new one. All of this was accomplished in less than 30 days. We loved both of the homes and when we needed to sell our second home, we didn't hesitate to call Laura. When we had to move to southern California before we sold our Northern California home, she provided so much support and assistance until our home sold. She is always professional and helps us negotiate with buyers and sellers. I recommend her without reservation.

Working with Laura to sell my house was a breeze! While normally a very stressful period--selling a house, Laura handled everything for me from A-Z. I was actually out of the country most of the time and Laura handled everything electronically. I would not hesitate to recommend Laura to anyone who had real estate needs.

I’ve had the privilege of working with Laura for over 20 years, and she’s always been a Rockstar. Her attention to detail and easy communication make the whole process feel effortless—I’d recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone needing a truly dependable real estate agent!

Laura was great in helping us get our new home. In our fast moving market it’s important someone helps guide you so you can make a good decision quickly and she was super helpful with that. She thoroughly went through to make sure all our questions were answered and our interests well represented. Thank you!!

Laura Nelson and her team, Jamie Johnson, were the absolutely perfect choice to sell our home. We had a lot anxiety and doubts about the process because of past experiences with other realtors, but Ms Nelson and team came in and got the job done anxiety and stress free. If you are ready to make a choice about a Realtor, no worries this team is the best professional team by far. I appreciated how they tailored every aspect of the process to not only fit our needs but fit our buyers needs also. Laura Nelson and Jamie Johnson are the perfect team.

It was a pleasure working with Lara Nelson. She helped me get my house ready to sell and once it was placed on the market I had a offer in 5 days. During the closing period she made sure all the documents were signed. I would highly recommend Lara Nelson if you plan on selling your home.

I will have to say buying a home is not a easy process, but Nicole was very patient and willing to go the extra mile to my dream come true. At the end I felt like she was apart of my family.

Excellent customer service. Laura and Nicole are a great team. They explained the process and promptly answered all my questions/concerns. Things moved a lot faster than I had expected,. House sold fast and the process was smooth! Highly recommend Laura Nelson Real Estate Team 👍🏼👍🏼
04/21/2022

Laura and her team made selling our house a fast and easy experience. They helped us through the long and extensive process and always responded to my calls and many questions promptly. The process of selling your home is so much more complicated than it was when we bought our house 33 years ago. Laura is very knowledgeable about the process. We will be sure to recommend Laura and her team to all our friends and family if they’re planning to sell ( or buy) a house.
03/20/2022

I've worked with Nicole Hunt at the Laura Nelson real estate team for several years now. She is a very patient when it comes to dealing with my first time home buyers and their down payment assistance programs. She also is very knowledgeable and listens well to a borrower's concerns and needs. I highly recommend this team. They are the best I've worked with ever!

Laura helped us sell our home of 19 years recently. She was really helpful throughout the process. She was very knowledgeable about how best we should pep the house for showing and also provided help from other team members. She was very organized and helped us stay on a tight timeline we had imposed upon her and helped us to source various service providers to help in the process. She is a very nice person who was very patient with us and very accessible whenever we needed to be able to contact her.
06/07/2021

Nicole is awesome! In this unpredictable market, we saw several homes all over the bay area. I was looking for a home 5 years ago and decided to hold off. During that time I had met a number of real estate agents and Nicole was one of them. We hit it off right away so when I was back in the market I reached out to her. I'm glad I did!! She's highly responsive, professional, patient, and genuine. She decorated the house the day we got the keys and made sure we took pictures. She even had a professional welcome home sign made for us. She has become a friend throughout the process and I highly recommend that you give her a try.
11/04/2020

Laura and her team made our selling process easy and pleasant. She works hard to ensure that her clients are well taken care of. I am SO GLAD we chose her and you will be too. I had concerns that we wouldn't be able to sell our house but Laura had it pending in 14 days! It was our first time selling and she and her team walked us through every step of the way, giving us confidence and peace of mind. Her recommendations were spot on. We appreciate her so much and would absolutely work with her again. Thank you, Laura!
01/17/2020

Laura and her team are like no other! Efficient, attentive, knowledgeable! Everything was done quickly, with no mistakes. Never did we have to remind them of anything. Nor did we ever have to fight for attention. We always had what we needed when we needed it. We did not feel like their business deal, yet their family. This made the experience that more special.
05/28/2019

We were selling our home so that we could move back home to Denver. I had been watching the market for a while and somehow I got connected to Laura through email. Laura began checking in on me about once a month as I had told her that we were not ready to sell yet but hopefully within the next year. She was excellent at keeping me posted on the market status and about a year later we decided to sell. She had made us feel so comfortable and was so helpful during that year that we obviously went ahead and used her as our agent. She made the process go as smoothly as she could (we all know there is usually some hiccups during the process) and she saw us through those with patience, and I do mean patience as at times I was asking a lot of questions and some were probably a little over kill. Laura was always professional and literally met us on our way to the airport to tell us goodbye. Thank you Laura for all of your support. We wish you the very best!
07/30/2018

She is a great real estate agent who can deliver the best experience for a home buyer!

Honesty, integrity, and reliable. I've had the pleasure of working with Laura Nelson a dew times. She's the only real estate agent I use when buying and/or selling houses.

Working with Laura has been a fantastic experience! She is incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and dedicated to ensuring the best outcomes for her clients. Her professionalism and attention to detail make every transaction smooth and efficient. Highly recommend!
02/04/2025

I did my research for a successful listing agent in Contra Costa County. Laura’s name came to the top. When I reached out, I got a VERY quick call back. The property had been a rental for many years with plenty of differed maintenance. Laura worked hard to market and negotiate the escrow through closing. I intended on using her in the near future to sell another property in Antioch. Laura was very responsive and easy to get a hold of through the process. I recommend her for any RE transaction in her area.
11/20/2024

Laura helped us list, photograph, and market our home to buyers quickly. We had a full price offer within weeks. She advocated for us through the entire sale process, making our first home sale easy.
09/19/2024

This is the second time Laura has helped us find a home. She is knowledgeable, kind, and resourceful when purchasing a home in today’s market. She is wonderful to work with- and we highly recommend!
06/28/2024

Laura and Jamie were absolutely amazing! This for me personally was an emotionally tough process to go through. They walked and talked me through the process. They are an incredible team. Laura went out of her way to help and answer my calls whenever I needed her! She really goes to bat for you! Jamie was so compassionate and knowledgeable! I highly recommend Laura and her team!
05/08/2024

I am writing this review on the behalf of Bob Westbury. We were very pleased with the service because of how professional Laura and Jaime were. Everything went very smoothly and the home sale was an easy process. Overall, I am very pleased with how everything went. I highly recommend anybody needing Keller Williams real estate service in Brentwood.
02/18/2024

From the first time she started working with me, I was a number 1 fan. She went above and beyond to help us not only in selling the property but also she helped us look for a place to stay after we sold the property. We are very thankful for Laura and Jamie for all the help! Highly recommended!
12/04/2023

Laura is an amazing Realtor that always leads with compassion, care, and honesty. She truly goes above and beyond for her clients and those around her! I highly recommend working with her if you are considering buying, selling, or investing in real estate.

Nicole Hunt was the ultimate Real Estate agent. She was constantly stepping up and resolving each and every issue. I would recommend highly her services.
04/27/2023

Laura Nelson real estate team provided an exceptional and efficient service helping us to sell our house quick and without issues.
03/17/2023

Laura and her team helped make the sale of my father's home quick and relatively easy. She helped us price the house right, generating a quick sale and a pretty smooth escrow.
08/13/2022

Nicole and the whole team made the home buying process extremely easy. Nicole is experienced and incredibly knowledgeable in her field. Being first time homebuyers, my fiancé and I had no clue what we were doing and Nicole was able to walk us through each step in detail and with ease. I highly recommend The Keller Williams team to help you find your next home!
05/28/2022

Laura and her team were absolutely fantastic to work with. They made the process so easy and were very helpful with every question I had! I highly recommend this team!
05/03/2022

Jamie Johnson, Laura Nelson and Nicole Hunt... Those are 3 names that I purposely put in alphabetical order. I don't want any of them to feel like anyone was less important as the other. So, no saying any of you are my favorite! lol I first worked with them in 2019. They helped me and my family sell a home and then purchase a new one. The prices were great. The support was amazing. The knowledge was fascinatingly accurate. With that being said, I had them put up with me on a second and third go around! This 3 woman tag team is a force to be reckoned with. I've never had any doubt that things wouldn't end well. Cheers to the team! And cheers to every single person that has recruited and will recruit those ladies!
04/21/2022

Laura Nelson and her team are amazing !!!! They always go above and beyond for their clients. I truly love working with them. They are professional, hardworking, and truly awesome !!!! you can't go wrong with them
02/24/2022

I am so impressed with Laura Nelson’s team, which includes Nicole, Jamie and Laura. Not only are they professionals in their field, but their community outreach and involvement is immeasurable. This team recently collected about 1200 lbs of food for their local food bank and they are involved in the monthly Teacher Appreciation Days. The care about their community and it shows in all they do.
02/22/2022

I'd like to come to the office to ask questions and there's always somebody to help me. And I got higher price from my house what I requested .

We recently bought a home with Laura as our buyer's agent. Laura's team including Nicole, Jamie was on top of everything. They were very responsive and took care of every issue that we had in a timely manner. As first time homebuyers, we didn't know a whole lot about home buying process. We visited our first home with Nicole in May and ended up purchasing the very first home put an offer for. Laura helped us negotiate a good deal with the seller in the process. Laura and her team not only educated us on the process, but also made sure that we're fully protected. Now that we moved in, I really do appreciate the 1 year home warranty Laura negotiated with the seller on our behalf, has already saved us a lot.
08/01/2020

Laura has handled two purchases and one sale for us. She and her team are excellent in communicating with us, letting us know what needs to be done, staging the property for sale and negotiating the price and terms of sale. Laura was patient with us (we ask a lot of questions) and all three transactions were completed to our complete satisfaction. We highly recommend Laura !!

Prepare yourselves. This is long. :) I bought my first home almost 8 years ago. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I needed to sell it and purchase another one. The desire to be my own agent was there. It’s hard to not make it an option when it’s considerably cheaper. However, the more I researched it, the more I realized this wasn’t a venture I wanted to take. The overwhelming amount of time and energy spent trying to accomplish something I had NO experience in was already causing a level of anxiety. And so began the research of finding a real estate agent... I spent a couple of weeks exploring my options. Narrowing it down from 10 to 5 to 3 to 1. I wanted to make sure that time and money was not wasted on an agent. I wanted someone that I felt I would be able to trust with selling my home. After reading Laura’s reviews, and looking at the houses that she helped to sell, I called her to request a meeting. She came to my home with a smile on her face and a packet of information in her hands. She spoke to me about her company and the things that’s included in her packet. My main reason for having a face-to-face meeting was to see if we would be a good match (our personalities). I wanted to make sure that she had positive energy and was approachable. Less than 5 minutes and I was sold! The decision was made! Before she left I told her we were good to go. From the beginning till now I have absolutely NO regrets. Her company supplied the photographer and a consultation with a stager. Two things that helped show the home for what it is. A great purchase. Her professionalism is amazing. Her knowledge is spectacular. Her skillfulness in managing to keep my anxiety ridden self at ease was above my expectations. She stayed in communication with me about everything. Any question I had, she answered. Because I trusted her with my home, I took her advice and recommendations. With that being said, within 2 weeks I had offers above asking price! I accepted one and started the process of having the beginning of 2019 be the last time living in my first home. Thanks Laura! You’re one in a million!
02/09/2019

Laura and her associate Nicole Hunt helped me from start to finish on everything when buying and selling my home. I would highly recommend her services she will always have your best interest in mind.

Laura Nelson is a true real estate professional. She’s very focused , attentive , knowledgeable and tenacious. She helped me through the many phases of selling My Condo in San Ramon. She went out of her way to stage My Condo to ensure that everything was pristine. There were countless numerous times that she made arrangements for open houses to view My Condo and remained extremely flexible with my time. When it came down to the bidding process, she had my back and insured that I got the most equity for my real estate investment. A big shout out to Laura for her dedication and commitment to sell my property. You’re in good hands with Laura ; she will never disappoint!

She made it happen. I highly recommend her. Thank you Laura 🙏🙏🙏

Laura is very helpful, reliable, professional, and a good listener! Laura, carefully, listened to what we wanted in our home selling process, and was willing to work with us to accommodate our individual needs. We felt confident in relying on her advise and expertise in preparing our house, timing, pricing, etc. We, also, appreciated her timely and patient responses to any questions or concerns.

11/28/2023

Laura and her team do their absolute best to make a stressful process easier. We were first time sellers and were not at all confident in what we were doing, but I could always get an answer or update when I asked. From staging and photographing our home to helping us with inspections and contractors, they really do offer a complete service and care about their clients.
09/15/2023

Laura and her team worked hard to sell our house. They turned a very stressful time into something manageable. Laura was so nice. She answered texts and phone calls all times of the week and day. From the beginning till the close of escrow, she was on top of every situation. Our closing date was changed by the buyers three times, and Laura knew what to do each time. Her professionalism is top notch. I highly recommend the Laura Nelson team to anyone looking to buy or sell a house. Not only did we sell our house, we also made a great friend.
04/10/2023

In my experience with communicating with Laura Nelson, I find she has extensive knowledge of the Livermore Market. She is excellent in selling a house over the list price and I find her to be a very professional realtor. I will definitely use her in the future.
02/01/2022

Where to begin, Nicole is simply amazing. From the very beginning she walked my family through the entire process. She answered all our questions at any time of the day. To find our perfect home it took us a little longer but Nicole was still patient with us since we knew exactly what we were looking for and what price point. When we ended up finding our home the process was flawless with Nicole guiding is every step of the way. What's even better is she still checks on us from time to time. When we are ready for our next home we will definitely be reaching out. Thank you so much for everything Nicole!!!!!

Laura and her team are very professional and always on top of things . They sold our home in just a few days after listing ! That too it was in December.. They made everything very easy for us, both while selling and closing the property . I have actually told Laura that when I buy another property in the area I would definitely seek her help.. Laura and her team are the best!

Laura knows the market extremely well. She is a fantastic communicator and was always available to answer my anxious questions during the sale process.
06/06/2019

Laura is the BEST! She did such a fantastic job. Wow. She struck the ideal balance between professional and friendly. She tells it like it is (so refreshing!), and does so with support and understanding. She kept me updated in exactly the way I wanted, and was just ‘on it’ throughout the entire process. I am slow to trust, but was swift in trusting Laura. The sale of my house was, at times, totally absurd, yet Laura dealt with it with encouragement and patience (for me) and, to my delight, grace and a certain no-nonsense (for the buyers and their agent). She had my back, and was even there for me when I got totally frustrated, offering compassion and, somehow at the same time, keeping me in reality. (Does she have a degree in Psychology too!?) Compared to my experience with another agent when purchasing my house, well, there’s no comparison: Laura was a true gift. So, if you’re reading this review because you’re trying to find the right agent for you, work with Laura. Really, work with Laura.
12/12/2018

Laura and her team have an unbeatable system! She was attentive and helpful and was always respectful of our wishes and ideas. Laura was in contact with us daily and kept us up to date on the progress of showing our house. in the end, she stuck with us, even thru our final signing! She delivered much more than we expected and everything we could have hoped for. We highly recommend her services!
