Anyone would greatly benefit from her expertise and professionalism. Thank you, Melanie. Alex&Alex”
“Katelyn is absolutely wonderful. We were nervous, first time buyers and she guided the entire process and kept us informed each step of the way. She made the whole process very easy and as stress free as possible.”
“Agent Pronto got me in touch with Patricia Halley Conaghan. She is, hands down, one of the best real estate agents around. I am in Oregon so it was long distance relationship. The property was no where ready to sell when I first listed. Many e-mails, phone calls, texts, and photos later we were able to get this property ready to sell. She lined up contractors and oversaw the work. It did not take long to sell with some creative financing. I couldn't be happier than I am with Patricia's work and support. She is AWESOME!!”
“Melanie Cook was very responsive and also answer any questions you may ask..She will walk you through every step of the way”
“Very easy to use. The agent selected was Anna Dunn. She was perfect. She was helpful and helped me the entire way.”
“Selecting our realtor, Mr. Joseph Dupard, through Agent Pronto was a blessing. I needed to list some estate property and being out of state made this difficult....Mr. Joseph Dupard was the best decision. Mr. Dupard is very knowledgeable about the area, professional, prompt, provided information to help me make the best decisions, explained information in layman's terms, and was assessable. I highly recommend him because he cares about his clients and their needs. ”
“Jen Burns was the only realtor that reached out to me. She was great to work with. We inherited this house and live out of state. Jen was so helpful and patient with all of our questions. She always answered her phone or texted right back. We highly recommend Jen Burns. She made the process so easy!”
“Gina was very helpful throughout the process of preparing and selling my home. She provided honest and constructive advice and feedback with a great eye for detail. Her experience and knowledge of the current market was very helpful in pricing and negotiating during the initial phases and during offer negotiations. Even during the unknown expectations of the COVID 19 pandemic, Gina was very reassuring yet realistic. I would recommend Gina as a reliable, responsive agent.”
“Scott Delhom took great care of us both with the sale of our old home & the purchase of our new home. Our experience with Scott was so wonderful that I referred my parents to him & he helped them find a new home also. I would highly recommend Scott Delhom for all of anyone’s realtor needs.”
Information and statistics on the latest trends in the Southdowns real estate market, updated for October 2025. *
The typical home value in Southdowns is projected to be $464,500 for the month of October. September’s finalized data reported the typical value of a home in the neighborhood to be $480,000—up 44.36% over the previous 12 months. For comparison, city-level data pegged home values at $210,000 in Baton Rouge for the most recent reporting period. That number is expected to float around $197,130 in October.
The number of days that homes have been on the market prior to going under contract fell year-over-year. In September 2025, the median time for a listed property to go pending was 63 days, compared to 71 days in September 2024. In recent months the median number of days from listed to pending appears to be decreasing. That trend is predicted to have carried through to this October.
Southdowns offers residents a welcoming, walkable community with tree-lined streets, convenient parks and amenities, strong schools, and a genuine sense of neighborhood connection that makes everyday life both relaxed and vibrant.
Southdowns blends college-town energy with easy, everyday living, set between the LSU Lakes and the Perkins Road corridors in Baton Rouge. Streets lined with mature oaks frame a mix of mid-century cottages and updated ranch homes, and the neighborhood’s beloved Mardi Gras tradition—the Southdowns parade—turns side streets into a small-town festival each winter. Weekend routines often revolve around the water and greenspace: runners loop the lakes, kids climb and explore at Knock Knock Children’s Museum, and cyclists hit the pump track and trails at BREC’s Perkins Road Community Park.
Proximity is the neighborhood’s superpower. Louisiana State University anchors the area with year-round arts, academics, and game days, while the dining pockets along Perkins Road and the Overpass district keep evenings lively without crossing town. Nearby cultural staples in the Garden District and around City-Brooks Park add galleries, playgrounds, and festivals to the calendar, and the University Lakes Project continues to enhance trails and ecology for daily use.
Families appreciate school options through the East Baton Rouge Parish corridor. The East Baton Rouge Parish School System serves the neighborhood, with competitive magnets and programs citywide, and respected private campuses such as St. Aloysius close by. For lifelong learners, Louisiana State University sits minutes away, and outdoor time is never far with BREC’s Perkins Road Community Park and the University Lakes Project nearby. Creativity for kids thrives at the Knock Knock Children’s Museum.
