Debbie Hanna, REALTOR®, is a native of Arkansas and earned a Bachelor of Music Education degree from Louisiana State University.

In addition to enjoying a variety of music genres and attending live concerts, she loves various sports – especially LSU & LA Dodgers baseball!

“I believe that the more buyers and sellers know about the process, the easier it is for them to make the right decision. I spend time educating my clients to empower them & take away a lot of the stress! Understanding the needs and issues facing each client is so important, whether a 1st time home buyer, an experienced seller, or a relocating family. I strive to make the home buying & selling process as seamless as possible and love helping people achieve their real estate goals! My experience, expertise, and negotiating skills give me not only the confidence I need to be fully committed to my clients but to exceed their expectations every step of the way. I look forward to working with you!”
