Lauretta began her real estate career in 1989 with Esslinger Wooten Maxwell, a leading independent real estate broker in Coral Gables, Florida where she specialized in waterfront and executive estates. A lifelong resident of Coral Gables, her father was a well known residential general contractor and it was only natural that her career path would lead her into real estate. Within three years of her career, she was eligible for and obtained her Certified Residential Specialist (CRS) designation, held by only 3% of all Realtors nationwide. In 1997, she and her husband relocated their family to Gainesville moving the family’s three generation business headquarters to North Florida. She quickly shifted gears and joined Coldwell Banker MM Parrish Realtors. Lauretta has consistently been named to the Coldwell Banker International President’s Premier, achieving over $30 million in annual sales and placing her in the top 1% of all Realtors in the world. She has been the #1 listing and sales associate at MM Parrish since 2010 and the #1 Individual Realtor in the Gainesville Alachua County Board of Realtors since 2014. She has also been named to Real Trends Top 100 Real Estate Agents in Florida. Lauretta specializes in residential sales from the smallest condo to million dollar plus estates.
A graduate of Auburn University with a degrees in Merchandising and Journalism, Lauretta married her high school sweetheart, Alan. She and her husband have three grown children and seven grandchildren. She believes that to be successful in real estate you have to be fully engaged in your community. Besides her full time real estate career, Lauretta has devoted time to the Junior League of Gainesville, the Children’s Home Society (past president and member of the Board of Directors in North Central Florida), the American Cancer Society Cure by Design fundraising committee, Oak Hall School Parents’ Association, Board of Directors of the Woman’s Giving Circle of the North Florida Community Foundation and a member of Holy Trinity Episcopal Church. Lauretta’s goal is to represent clients who expect the highest level of professionalism and personal service – The Right Move In Real Estate!

Coldwell Banker is the way to go! Lauretta Fogg went above and beyond to guide us through the process of buying and selling our homes. Even with a difficult seller, we ultimately ironed out the details and ended up with a home we love.

We just want to thank you again for helping us find our new home. You were right, we just had to wait for the right house and we are so glad that we did. We are exceedingly grateful for your help, work, dedication, and attention to detail through this process. We felt like we were working with a close family friend.

Our Realtor, Lauretta Fogg, was exceptional. Her professionalism, experience, and knowledge were evident in each step of our home sale and relocation. She made what could have been a very daunting experience run smoothly and efficiently. We would use Lauretta and Coldwell Banker MM Parrish Realtors again and recommend them to others.

We slept like a baby through what could have been an ongoing nightmare! We left town and moved across the county before our house even went on the market. Thus, we were totally dependent on our Realtor’s expertise to both keep us informed and made the deal “happen.” She was responsive (Sundays, late at night – no problem!) and successfully “quarterbacked” what apparently turned out to be a very complicated transaction. There were several delays, but her knowledge, perseverance, and professionalism helped lead to a sale and a happy ending.
Pat and John
A very sincere thank you for all your hard work, advice, and expertise in the marketing and sale of our house. Your follow-up and communication exceeded our expectations! You truly are the consummate Real Estate Professional!
Chris and Christine

I am writing this letter to commend one of your Realtors, Lauretta Fogg. She recently sold my home in Gainesville. From the very beginning, she was warm, knowledgeable, and very professional. Before I even put my house on the market, she was a fount of valuable advice to assist me in getting the home ready for sale. I have been recently widowed and was for the first time having to sell my home on my own. She was always available and always kept me informed of what was going on. I cannot say enough about how grateful I am to her for all the help that she gave to me in selling my home. She is without a doubt a valuable assist to your company. It is a relief to have sold my home. She made the process as painless as it could be under the circumstances. I definitely owe her a debt of gratitude!

For this first time home seller, Lauretta provided me with the guidance I needed to sell my home at a fair price. She provided great advice, especially with needed repairs and finding contractors. I had a solid offer within 48 hours of listing!

Not knowing the first thing about buying a house, Lauretta sat down with me and patiently explained the process. She went above and beyond the call of duty when helping me to rent and sell my condo. I highly recommend her. She is the best realtor ever!
