Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate LLC announced today the affiliation of Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate Tiger Town based in Baton Rouge, La., which expands the brand’s presence in the state.

The firm is owned and operated by Shannon Andre-Dewey, who established Tiger Town Realty in 2007 after a highly successful career in real estate sales. Andre-Dewey has grown the company to more than 40 agents and has become among the top 10% of brokerages in the market. The family-oriented firm and its agents are dedicated to providing exceptional client service and prioritize building relationships with clients.

The brokerage serves residential clients across all segments in the Baton Rouge area, including Gonzales, Sorrento, Geismar, Prairieville, Denham Springs, Port Allen, Brusly, Plaquemine, Erwinville, New Roads, and Addis. In addition, the company has a growing presence in New Orleans, located about an hour away. 

Baton Rouge is the education, economic, and entertainment hub of the South. The city is home to Louisiana State University, representing a large part of the local culture. Baton Rouge’s revitalized downtown with live music, museums, art galleries, and the walkable, bikeable Mississippi River Levee Path is complemented by a nationally acclaimed library system and more than 180 parks. Baton Rouge also offers a low cost of living with thriving job markets in healthcare, engineering, and energy.

Details:    

• Andre-Dewey intends to grow market share by recruiting service-driven, production-minded agents to the firm. They will be attracted to the unique opportunities afforded to Better Homes and Gardens Real Estate affiliated agents, including the highly regarded brand cachet, sophisticated marketing programs, and proprietary avenues for lead generation. 
• Increased agent productivity will be a significant focus as the company leverages the brand’s vast array of business-building tools, technology, and resources, including the MoxiWorks product suite, which will streamline agents’ activities and enhance the client experience. 
• Agents will also be well-positioned for increased productivity with access to Be Better® University, the brand’s proven professional development and award-winning learning platform. Courses are available to affiliated brokers and agents across various topics, from luxury certification to productivity, technology, and skill development. Classes and workshops are offered live, virtually, and on-demand.
• PinPointSM, the proprietary BHGRE® brand tool that taps into consumer behavior data from Better Homes & Gardens magazine and its publisher Dotdash Meredith’s customer database of more than 175 million consumers, will play a significant role in supporting client acquisition for the brokerage’s affiliated agents.
• Commitment to the community through sponsorships, fundraising, volunteering, and donations is a prominent component of the firm’s culture. In addition to supporting many local events, the company is a long-time supporter of Catholic Life Charities and the Salvation Army’s Christmas Adopt a Family program, which helps provide tangible needs to impoverished families during the holidays. 
• Realtor.com reports that the median listing price for a home in Baton Rouge, L.A. is $270,000.
