A fusion of Selling Sunset and Made in Chelsea, Buying London follows Daniel Daggers and his team of agents at DDRE Global as they attempt to "conquer the super prime high-end real estate market, from the prestigious streets of Mayfair to the exclusive enclaves of Holland Park".
One agent is Lauren Christy, whose old friendship with Daggers certainly ruffles a few feathers in the show.
So, what is her background and how does she know Daggers? Here's everything you need to know about the Buying London agent on the Netflix show.
Lauren Christy is a real estate advisor who works closely alongside the other agents at DDRE Global on Buying London.
Lauren joined DDRE Global with over five years' worth of experience in both South Africa and the United Kingdom.
Based on her DDRE biography, Lauren "treats every deal with absolute dedication, accommodation and transparency".
"Her confidence, critical thinking, and commitment to yielding optimal results has been the key to her successful client relationships and, as a result, successful transactions," it reads.
As per her Netflix description, Lauren is the top agent at DDRE who "never tires of reminding the rest of the office about her long-term friendship with boss Daniel".
As teased by Netflix, it's Daniel's "apparent favouritism" towards Lauren that causes her to clash with another colleague in an "explosive feud which reaches boiling point and could threaten the future of the business".
She has a Marketing and Communications degree with a specialist focus in Account and Brand Management.

It isn't clear how Lauren and Daniel became friends - however, it is mentioned that they met six years ago and have been close friends and colleagues ever since.
In a post sharing a pic from a photoshoot, Lauren said she is counting her lucky stars, thanking Daniel and DDRE Global for giving her "the opportunity to go for it".
Speaking to The Sun about Buying London, she said: "I am one of the best agents here.
"Agency life is full of ups and downs. Dealing with the tough times, for me, starts with health, so I prioritise some sort of physical activity every day, then I say, 'Have an attitude of abundance.'
"Not everything is going to go your way, so let go of the things you can't control and harness the things you can."
