Leighton Barrett Strong

Leighton Barrett Strong

Leighton Barrett Strong brings more than two decades of experience in real estate, marketing, construction/renovation, investment, and entrepreneurship to Historic 504 Properties. Her relationship with real estate began long before joining the Historic 504 team, with experience spanning residential sales, investment properties, acquisitions and wholesaling, renovation, construction, and property marketing.

Previously licensed in Mississippi and California, Leighton has spent years looking at real estate from nearly every angle. As an agent, investor, renovator, marketer, and homeowner. That experience has given her an ability to see both what a property is and what it could be, while understanding the practical, financial, and emotional considerations that go into buying or selling a home.

As Director of Marketing for Historic 504 Properties, Leighton has helped shape the brand's distinctive voice and digital presence, developing creative strategies that showcase not simply a property's features, but the story of the home, its architecture, and the neighborhood surrounding it. Now licensed in Louisiana with Historic 504 Properties, she brings that same strategic eye and depth of experience directly to buyers, sellers, and investors.

For sellers, Leighton's marketing expertise is a powerful advantage. She understands how to identify what makes a property special, position it effectively, and create compelling visual and digital campaigns designed to put it in front of the right audience. For buyers and investors, her experience with renovation, construction, and investment properties allows her to recognize potential, evaluate opportunities, and see beyond the surface.

Deeply connected to New Orleans and its neighborhoods, Leighton believes the best real estate relationships begin with listening. Whether helping someone find a home, preparing a property for market, evaluating an investment, or developing a strategy to achieve a client's long-term goals, she brings creativity, resourcefulness, strong negotiation skills, and an intensely hands-on approach to the process.

For Leighton, real estate has never been simply about selling houses. It is about seeing possibilities, telling the story of a place, and helping people make smart decisions about where and how they live.
