About Tracy Mathis

I'm Tracy Mathis, Broker/Owner and REALTOR® of The Southern Homes Team, now an independent, LREC-licensed real estate brokerage serving Greater Baton Rouge, Ascension Parish, Livingston Parish, the Felicianas, Pointe Coupee, Lafayette, and Greater New Orleans. My husband Cory and I have owned this business together since 2010. ✦ If you're here searching for your next home, you're in good hands. You'll work with a close-knit team of 11 licensed specialists — with Spanish and Vietnamese language support — who know your name, your timeline, and your goals from first showing to closing day. My 12 years as a former mortgage loan officer alongside 19 years in real estate means I bring dual expertise most agents can't match — especially with USDA, VA, FHA, and first-time buyer financing. When a lender or contract surprise comes up, I've already been on the other side of that conversation. ✦ We also work with buyers and sellers at the higher end of the market. My mortgage background isn't limited to first-time buyer programs — I know jumbo financing inside and out, from qualification hurdles to how appraisals and underwriting work differently above conforming loan limits. Whether you're buying a luxury estate or selling one, having an agent who's also spent over a decade structuring complex loans means fewer surprises and a smoother path to closing. ✦ Buying and selling at the same time? We get it. Coordinating a sale and a purchase in the same timeline is one of the most stressful situations in real estate — contingencies, matching closings, the fear of ending up without a home in between. We've walked hundreds of families through this exact dance. From pricing strategy and timing the list date, to negotiating the right contingencies and answering your panicked 9pm texts, we hold your hand through every step. ✦ When it's time to actually list, most Baton Rouge agents approach it with a yard sign and an MLS upload. We approach it like a product launch — professional photography, cinematic listing videos, aerial drone footage, 360° virtual tours, a custom single-property website, Zillow Showcase placement, and targeted Facebook, YouTube, and Google ad campaigns with a real budget behind them. ✦ To me, the highest compliment isn't a production number — it's clients choosing to speak up for you. I'm humbled and honored every time someone takes the time to leave a review or cast a vote, because that kind of trust is something we work for every day, not something we're owed. In 2026, the people I've worked with voted me RateMyAgent's Agent of the Year across Louisiana, Baton Rouge, Prairieville, Ascension Parish, and East Baton Rouge Parish, plus a national Top 100 Agent ranking. That same year, The Advocate voted The Southern Homes Team the Gold Winner for Real Estate Team in the 2025 and 2026 Best of Baton Rouge Awards, a back-to-back win, and I also earned the Bronze Winner for Individual Agent in 2025. ✦ The industry recognition is appreciated too: ⭐ RealTrends 2026 ranked The Southern Homes Team the #1 Large Real Estate Team in Baton Rouge, and #5 in Louisiana; I was individually ranked #11 in Baton Rouge, and #34 in Louisiana. ⭐ I rank in the Top 1% of Greater Baton Rouge REALTORS®. ⭐ FastExpert ranked me the #1 Real Estate Agent in Prairieville and Geismar, and #2 in Baton Rouge and Denham Springs. ⭐ Zillow has recognized me as a Premier Agent since 2007. Zillow also invited our team into its Preferred Partner program in 2026, and we've earned Best of Zillow every year since the award began in 2018. ⭐ $350M+ career sales · 2,000+ closings · 1,300+ five-star reviews. ✦ Whether you're buying your first home, relocating, selling one you've loved for 20 years, or doing both at the same time — we'd be honored to walk with you. Call or text me at (225) 308-2108, or message me right here on Zillow. Licensed by the Louisiana Real Estate Commission.
