About Margaret

Very few Realtors® come into the marketplace with the extensive real estate background that I bring to the Baton Rouge area. Originally licensed in Texas, my career in residential real estate began in the Dallas, Texas - Highland Park region. During my Texas profession, I sold everything from 2nd homes to Highland Park estates, and entry level real estate to farm and ranch properties. My real estate business has been based on personalized service to meet the needs of my customers. My customers can expect that my focus will be on finding the right Buyer for their property or finding the best value for their dream home or investments. In 2005, my youngest daughter decided that she would make Baton Rouge her home after graduate school at LSU. And after Katrina, it became clear to me that if I was ever to transition back to a smaller city, now would be a good time. My relocation to Baton Rouge was completed in the early spring of 2006.

When I was looking for a local company to become associated with in Baton Rouge, Burns and Company, Inc., Realtors, became a natural fit for me. Burns and Company is the largest locally owned and privately operated company in the market. We offer the latest in technology, the highest ethical standards and a full service company to assure you that your needs are met in a timely and effective manner. Additionally, we are members of the Leading Edge Relocation Network that offers referrals to over 600 markets in communities all over the world. This is helpful when you are relocating to another market, purchasing a 2nd home or looking for international investments.

On a personal level, I am a 5th generation Texan and the mother of 2 exceptional daughters. My education took place at the University of Texas at Dallas where I graduated with a degree in Sociology. I spend my time away from real estate while in the city in the garden, practicing yoga, walking daily and just venturing into the game of golf. My special friends are two Catahoula leopard dogs, Ms. Lucky and Irene. The adventure of travel to exotic places and fishing are fun for me whenever I can get away from town.

Since my relocation to Baton Rouge, I have become involved with the development committee for the Manship Theatre, serve on the Shepard’s committee for the First United Methodist Church, and working with a long term support of the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Professionally, I am honored to be a member of the Burns and Company, Agent Advisory Team.
