Laura Taras Lander

Born and raised in Michigan, Laura went to the Big Apple to attend Pratt Institute where she met her husband and went on to pursue her dream of working at Harper's Bazaar magazine and later as a freelance Fashion Stylist for over 10 years. Laura moved to Stamford, CT after having her daughter and combined her urban life with her suburban life. After having her son, she decided to embrace the country life even more by moving to Weston, CT with her family. She bought a Cape Cod house and renovated it, added a pool, a dog, and was enjoying life. Once her children were both in school she got the itch to go back to work. She took a real estate class and found her next passion. As it turned out, her styling skills were put to great use by helping sellers stage their homes and buyers envision what a home could be. Laura has a vast network of service providers and is always available to answer questions during and after the purchasing/selling process is complete. Laura's goal for every client is to help them live their best life.
