Lorien Olsen is a SERHANT. real estate agent on the Westside of Los Angeles, Venice, Santa Monica, Mar Vista, Marina del Rey, and Brentwood. Before real estate, she spent nearly two decades in corporate operations, managing 800,000 square feet of office space and leading build-outs and relocations for up to 2,000 people at companies including Spotify, Snapchat, Vox Media, and OnDeck. She became a Realtor in 2023 and earned her brokerage's Rising Star award in her first year, closing $5.4 million in sales.
Lorien negotiates with the precision of someone who managed $10 million operating budgets and 14 floors of commercial real estate, not someone new to high-stakes decisions. She pairs that operational discipline with a genuine, lifelong passion for architecture, home design and renovation. That combination is why she's repositioned and sold homes other agents couldn't move.
Lorien loves Historic Cultural Monuments and mid-century modern architecture. Buyers and sellers of homes such Neutra, Schindler, and Eichler-era properties should work with her because she understands what makes these homes valuable beyond square footage.
She not only has access to a carefully curated list of stagers but she also can, if the client has to live in the home while selling, stage the home with what a seller already owns, rearranging and editing existing furniture and decor rather than requiring an empty house. This design specialization paired with the high end architectural photograph she pays for and beautiful print marketing she provides adds a touch of sophistication that has proven to sell homes quickly that have sat unsold under previous agents.
While Lorien works wherever her clients take her she primarily focuses where she lives over by Venice, Santa Monica, Mar Vista, Marina del Rey, and Brentwood — the Westside of Los Angeles.
Yes, across LA, specifically the Westside, including first-time buyers, relocation clients, sellers moving out of state and seniors.
Yes. She walks first-time buyers through financing, offers, and every step in between, and publishes educational videos on her YouTube channel covering the buying and selling process for anyone who wants a deeper look before getting started.
Yes, a 5.0 rating from past clients, who point to her responsiveness, preparation, and design eye throughout the transaction.
Nearly two decades in corporate facilities and operations management, including build-outs and large office relocations for Spotify, Snapchat, Vox Media, and OnDeck, and oversight of portfolios up to 800,000 square feet and 2000 people. That background is why her transactions run on precision, not improvisation.

Lorien did an awesome job helping us sell our place in Marina del Rey. Her attention to detail, energy, and enthusiasm was incredible. We interviewed several realtors before we decided to go with Lorien. Our first meeting with her was all we needed. She was so excited to work with us, and help us get the most for our property. I would recommend her to anyone...

I can't recommend Lorien Olsen enough! If you're looking for a real estate agent that's trustworthy, beyond prepared, super-friendly, patient and exceptional at their job, you must reach out to Lorien.

Lorien and her team have been a great resource and were with us every step of the way through escrow. She was personable, knowledgeable and responsive to any of our concerns. We appreciate her great efforts and would recommend her for your realtor needs!

Lorien is the best! My partner and I just bought our first home and Lorien had our backs the entire way. From the first initial baby steps of figuring out where to even start or what initial things to have ready, all the way to navigating the final stages of escrow and closing (and beyond, frankly). The entire process of home buying is so confusing and one encounters a great deal of b...

I recommend Lorien so highly for whatever your real estate needs - whether buying or selling. She assisted us in the purchase of our first home and she was so knowledgeable, patient, and helpful. We encountered so many rude, entitled, and downright unprofessional realtors in our journey, and Lorien was a breath of fresh air among all of that. If you want a realtor who is going to be t...
