Southern Homes Real Estate Team

I'm Tracy Mathis, Owner/Broker, REALTOR® of The Southern Homes Real Estate Team, brokered by Southern Homes Realty, LLC. My husband Cory and I founded our brokerage in 2010 with one promise: no client gets lost in the shuffle. I've been a REALTOR® since 2007 and a Louisiana broker since 2009. For 12 of those years I was also a licensed mortgage loan officer, so I know financing from the lender's side. USDA, VA, FHA, first-time buyer programs, jumbo loans above conforming limits: I've structured them all. When a lender, appraisal, or contract surprise comes up, I've already been on the other side of that conversation. Our team is small by design. You'll work with people who know your name, your timeline, and your goals from the first showing to closing day, backed by a support team that handles systems, marketing, listing coordination, and transactions behind the scenes. We serve buyers, sellers, and investors across Greater Baton Rouge, Ascension, Livingston, West Baton Rouge, Iberville, Pointe Coupee, and the Felicianas, plus Lafayette and Greater New Orleans. Selling? We treat a listing like a product launch, not a yard sign and an MLS upload: professional photography, cinematic listing video, drone footage, 360° virtual tours, a custom single-property website, Zillow Showcase, and paid placement on YouTube, Homes.com, and Realtor.com. Then we price it with real comps and show you the math behind the number. Buying? We help first-time buyers, relocating buyers, move-up buyers, and luxury clients find the right home and get the deal done, with straight answers on what you can afford and what a home is really worth. Buying and selling at the same time? It's one of the most stressful situations in real estate: matching closings, contingencies, and the fear of ending up between homes. We've walked hundreds of clients through it, from timing the list date to negotiating the right contingencies. A few things I believe: • An online estimate is a starting point, not a value. It has never been inside your house. • Don't shop commission. Shop net proceeds. What you keep is the number that matters. • Any agent can tell you what your home is worth. Ask them to show you the comps and the math. By the numbers: 2,000+ closings · $350M+ in career sales · 1,250+ five-star reviews.

It's clients taking the time to leave a review or refer a friend. That trust is something we work for every day. Whether you're buying your first home, relocating, selling one you've loved for years, or doing both at once, call or text me at (225) 308-2108. We'd love to guide you home.
