LAURELL KURTZMAN

Laurell Kurtzman brings a solid business approach to her career as a professional Realtor. Laurell stays current with the real estate market through continuing education, and has earned GRI and ABR designations and completed the classroom requirement for her CRS designation. She makes a point of attending at least one or two industry seminars each year in order to meet other real estate professionals from around the country.

Very organized and detail oriented, Laurell recognizes that communication is key, both with her clients and all the parties involved in a real estate transaction. She knows it is very important to educate her clients, buyers and sellers, about the market and what to expect at every stage of the purchase or sale process. Laurell has a real appreciation for the value of people’s time and makes an effort to determine what form of communication – telephone or email - works best for each party.

Laurell regards every transaction as an opportunity to learn. “Everyone has different needs and wants,” she says, “and it is a challenge to find just the right property or just the right price and marketing that will bring the right buyer. Many of my past clients have become good friends and I have been able to create a great referral network.”

Born in Ketchikan, Alaska, Laurell was reared in Seattle, Washington. She graduated from Rice University and worked as a legal assistant for two law firms and a major oil company in Houston. Prior to her career in real estate, Laurell was the business manager for a start-up publishing company where she managed the office, set up computer systems, wrote programming, organized and attended trade shows and conferences, and published a monthly newsletter.

Laurell lives in Memorial and has a daughter who attends Duchesne Academy of the Sacred Heart.
