Meet The Ernst Team

Our Story

Built around one promise — we answer the phone.

The Ernst Team was built on a simple idea — that real estate should be more personal, more professional, and more effective for every client we serve. What began as a small dream, shared by founders Allen and Lauren Ernst, has grown into a full-service team united by one goal: delivering an exceptional real estate experience from start to finish.

We've built our team intentionally, choosing agents who share our commitment to integrity, communication, and results. Each member brings unique strengths, local expertise, and a shared drive to help our clients achieve their goals — whether buying, selling, or investing. At The Ernst Team, collaboration is at the heart of everything we do. We support each other so we can better support you — ensuring that every client benefits from the collective knowledge and experience of the entire team.

Testimonials

What clients say about working with us.

Just completed a purchase working with the Ernst team, and I am so grateful for their professionalism and expertise in the field. Challenges that arose were handled efficiently, and the closing would have been delayed if it weren't for their determination to get everyone to the table with agreed-upon items adequately resolved. This is my second time working with Lauren Ernst and Coldwell Banker, and they will be my future go-to as well.

Buyer

I recently had the pleasure of working with Abby Cronin, a newer real estate agent who exceeded all expectations in helping me purchase a two-family investment property. She demonstrated professionalism, dedication, and a genuine passion for real estate that made the entire process smooth and stress-free.

CONNIE S.
Investment buyer

Working with Abby was so refreshing! She was friendly, knowledgeable, and dedicated! She took an entire evening showing us properties and remained thorough the entire time. Can't recommend her enough for your home-buying needs!

SAMANTHA L.

Abby did an outstanding job helping our family find the right house in Clifton. She knows the local environment very well and understands customers' needs.

The Ernst Team is great! Easy to work with, professional dream team. I recommend them to all my friends and family. Bought three homes with them and sold two. Always a great experience!

JOY S.
Repeat client

Lauren was amazing to work with! Always friendly and upbeat, and willing to help us before and after the sale. Her communication was excellent, and her advice was priceless. I 100% recommend working with her.

BENJAMIN W.
Buyer

Lauren was very helpful with our search for a home. She was quick to respond to our texts or calls. She was available to show us homes. She kept us updated on each step of the process of selling our home and purchasing our new home. Lauren was very professional. I would recommend and use her again.

C. PAYNE
Seller + buyer

If I could give more stars, I would! Lauren took care of us from start to finish and made a first-time home purchase seamless and stress-free. She is very knowledgeable in what to look for when walking through the house and was able to tell us things that were ok, and things to stay away from. I couldn't recommend the Ernst team enough, and they will be our realtors for life! Thank you again!

ALEX R.
First-time buyer

Lauren is a great realtor recommended to us. We contacted her with the intent of buying an existing home. She was knowledgeable and eager to find us our new home. She was timely and always available to meet and view houses in the crazy market. We trusted she was doing what was best for us. Lauren shifted gears for us quickly when we suddenly decided to build a new home, and helped us along the way on that route as well. We highly recommend her!

KRYSTAL M.
New-build buyer

They navigated us through some nontraditional waters and were such a trusted resource throughout. They went above and beyond to provide us with the best representation we could've hoped for. Highly recommend.
