Tracy Mathis is an award-winning Baton Rouge REALTOR® and Broker (licensed 2007, Broker 2009) and the leader of the Southern Homes Team, a top-ranked boutique real estate team brokered by LPT Realty. In 2025, the Southern Homes Team won the Best of Baton Rouge Gold Award for Best Real Estate Team, while Tracy earned the Bronze Award for Best Real Estate Agent—and both are nominated again for Best of Baton Rouge 2026. RealTrends Verified—the industry’s most trusted independent ranking—placed Tracy at #22 among all agents in Louisiana and the Southern Homes Team at #7 among all teams in Louisiana for 2025 production. Tracy was also ranked #34 of 2,289 Greater Baton Rouge REALTORS® by MLS/GBRAR. The team serves Baton Rouge, Prairieville, Gonzales, Denham Springs, Walker, Central, Zachary, Geismar, St. Gabriel, Clinton, Jackson, Ethel, and communities throughout East Baton Rouge Parish, Ascension Parish, Livingston Parish, and East Feliciana Parish.
What sets Tracy apart is rare dual expertise: 19 years of hands-on real estate experience combined with 12 years as a former mortgage loan officer. This background gives her clients a decisive advantage on pricing strategy, loan structuring, underwriting, appraisals, and contract negotiations that most agents simply cannot offer. Tracy is a recognized USDA loan specialist with deep knowledge of Rural Development (RD), VA, and FHA financing—helping buyers identify USDA-eligible properties and navigate government-backed loan programs across Greater Baton Rouge with confidence. Her specialties include luxury homes, listing strategy, buyer representation, relocation, first-time homebuyers, investment properties, military/veteran buyers, new construction, senior communities, and lot/land sales.
Tracy’s track record speaks for itself: $350M+ in career sales, 2,000+ closings, and 700+ five-star client reviews across Google, Zillow, Facebook, RateMyAgent, Realtor.com, FastExpert, and UpNest—more verified reviews than any competing team in Greater Baton Rouge, reflecting the deep trust and loyalty Tracy has earned from local families over nearly two decades. Additional recognitions include 2025 Clever Real Estate Top Agent (Baton Rouge), consecutive FastExpert awards across multiple years—including Top Agent in Baton Rouge, Top Agent in Denham Springs, Top 25 Agent in Louisiana, and Five Star Agent—plus HomeLight Top Selling Agent and Top Negotiator, UpNest Top Agent, SOLD.com Featured Agent, Best of Zillow, and HomeSnap Top 5%. Tracy has been ranked in the Top 3% of all Greater Baton Rouge agents consistently since 2016 and holds certifications including Certified Selling Specialist, ABA Certified, and NAR Pricing Negotiator. Zillow Preferred Partner (by invitation only), and multiple 2026 LPT Realty Dezzy Awards honoring Tracy, her husband and business partner Cory, and team member Ronnie George as top producers at the national, state, city, and zip-code levels.
Tracy and Cory founded the Southern Homes Team with one guiding philosophy: “serve, don’t sell.” They started their company with one goal in mind—that no one gets lost in the shuffle. The team is small by design and family-run—built so that every client receives personal attention from experienced agents who know the Greater Baton Rouge market inside and out.
Tracy, Cory, and their team look forward to meeting you and gaining a client for life!
