About Us

At Lauren Homes, building homes is more than construction—it’s personal. Founder Fred Price named the company after his wife, Lauren, as a reflection of their shared values: family, integrity, and creating spaces where memories are built. Even the floor plans carry family names, tying every home back to what matters most.

Lauren Price, originally from Grosse Pointe, Michigan, brings a background in cosmetology and business. Her eye for design and excellent communication skills make her the go-to guide for clients choosing colors, finishes, and selections. Lauren is the face and heart of Lauren Homes’ style—helping families turn floor plans into homes that feel uniquely theirs.

Fred’s path to homebuilding started in Pennsylvania, where he first fell in love with the process after watching his parents build their home. He pursued business marketing at Grove City College, where football instilled teamwork and leadership, and later completed his degree at Florida Gulf Coast University.

While finishing college, Fred joined Pulte Homes, one of the nation’s largest builders, working on communities like The Brooks, Colonial Country Club, and Gulf Harbour. There, he gained experience in sales, warranty, and construction, learning both the efficiency of large-scale building and the importance of personal service.

In 2013, shortly after marrying Lauren, Fred launched Lauren Homes. Today, Fred oversees vendor relationships, scheduling, and project management, while Lauren guides clients through the design process. Together, they run the company day-to-day, blending national builder expertise with a family-first, personal touch.

At Lauren Homes, we believe a solid home creates a solid foundation for life. That’s why we focus on quality, trust, and timeless design—so every family in Southwest Florida can feel confident their home was built to last.
