Lauren Frank’s understanding of real estate began long before her career. The daughter of a mortgage broker and a real estate agent, she grew up with an innate sense of how to match people with the perfect home. Early exposure to the industry sparked her lasting fascination with homes, architecture, and the unique stories they hold.

Her path to becoming a Realtor was unconventional. After graduating from St. Edward’s University with a degree in International Relations, Lauren’s love of adventure took her abroad, where she launched an international lifestyle brand from the ground up. Over a decade of growth, she honed her skills in entrepreneurship, communication, and perseverance before selling the company. Those experiences shaped the qualities she’s known for today in real estate: attention to detail, relentless follow-through, and genuine client care.

Whether guiding first-time buyers, seasoned investors, or families relocating to Austin, Lauren approaches each transaction with calm confidence. Clients value her responsiveness, clear communication, and ability to anticipate their needs before they arise.

Having lived in Austin since the 1990s and called many of its neighborhoods home, Lauren offers hyper-local expertise and a unique perspective on the city’s evolving market. Today, she lives within Austin’s city limits, where she’s traded nightlife for wildlife and enjoys spending time outdoors with her husband, three children, and their lively rescue pup, Bear.

Lauren is proud to have joined Petri Group at Moreland Properties—a powerhouse in luxury real estate defined by excellence, innovation, and integrity. With a shared commitment to white-glove service, bespoke marketing, and extraordinary results, this partnership marks an exciting new chapter in her journey.
