Beverly's Mission Statement
To be knowledgeable, communicative, cooperative, and results-oriented, and to perform as the consummate real estate professional – worthy of the respect, trust, and confidence placed in me.
"I believe that one's personal and professional lives should parallel one another. To that end, and at all times, the highest level of integrity and ethics will be the standard by which my duties will be executed and my behavior conducted. Nothing can deter me from adhering to my core values and modeling them in both my personal and professional life. It's a commitment I take seriously."
My reputation as a straight-shooter has served me well. I believe in accountability and responsibility, and am able to effectively communicate with all parties. When accepting a consulting engagement, my diligence is thorough and focused. I enjoy going above and beyond the typical transaction experience and always look for ways to "think outside the box." With most of my business repeat/referral based, I'm honored by this testimony to my service and knowledge. Clients tell me that I'm unlike other Realtors they've dealt with in the past and I take that as a high compliment!
Reputation is everything. I will honor the trust and confidence placed in me, and will not disappoint.
Bev Hobbs Shea is a seasoned real estate professional whose vast experience includes residential sales and leasing, subdivision development, condominium conversions, residential brokerage and management, light commercial and special projects. She currently offers traditional, non-traditional, and consultative services to both clients and the real estate industry. Her focus includes troubleshooting, conflict resolution, teaching/workshops/training, as well as facilitating discussions among real estate practitioners throughout the state. Additionally, Beverly considers herself both a resource and connector, as she is frequently tapped by investors and clients to put together and/or participate in custom projects.
As a second generation real estate professional, Bev has the foundation and years of experience to uniquely qualify her to perform in a variety of capacities and assignments. In addition to the above qualifications, her previous experience also includes project management, on-site sales, relocation, speaking engagements, and the conducting of mission/vision workshops. Her ability to assess a situation and guide it to completion, as well as her approachability, continually keeps her on the front lines of the business. To the real estate industry, Bev is passionate about "building a better Realtor" and to her clientele, she is passionate about achieving results.
2024 marks Bev's 49th year as a real estate professional. She has been an annual recipient of the industry's highest volume awards, lifetime achievement certifications, and has also earned several designations:
Realtor Associations
- National Association of Realtors
- New Orleans Metropolitan Association of Realtors
- Past & present service on Board Forms Committee
Bev consistently ranks among top producers in her Board and in her Parish (county). She has been a founding member of several real estate companies, has served as managing broker, has led teams, and is also a principal in several companies. In her own words:
My success is the product of perseverance, a lifelong love of learning, a commitment of hard work, and being the beneficiary of talented, sharing professionals who instilled in me a desire to go beyond the norm. The opportunities I was given have expanded my knowledge and invaluable experience. I frequently say that I am not a salesperson; rather, I am a business person who sells. Whether or not we believe this, it is true.
So how do we go about this? By striving for excellence - for reaching higher than mediocrity. The same formula applies to both work and life. My personal philosophy is that our personal and professional lives should parallel. For myself, the standard is the highest level of integrity and ethics possible, and that this commitment to excellence be exhibited in everything. If I can impart this and encourage others to seek outlets and opportunities by which they can also elevate expectations and then meet them, my skills will be well-invested. Whether you are a fellow business person or a future client, your project is specific to your needs; sometimes it just takes a fresh, neutral pair of eyes to obviate the overlooked.

No matter how much technology has changed our world, including the real estate world, there is no substitute for experienced practitioners who have weathered the ups & downs, economic cycles, and local market evolutions associated with what is/are likely the most important decision(s) in their lifetime – whether the focus is residential, commercial, or investment.
No prudent buyer, seller, or investor wants to make a mistake. And no one wants to be “sold;” rather, they’d prefer to be “serviced.” Sometimes that means just being able to speak with a trusted advisor about market conditions and trends without being pressured to commit to a listing or a purchase. This is just one of the specialty services that Beverly offers. Contact her for a confidential appointment to discuss what’s really on your mind.
To the real estate community Beverly offers the service of facilitating round tables and break-out sessions designed to foster better understanding and communication between practitioners and navigating common challenges.
Many industry licensees employ the term Consultant, mistakenly believing that possessing a professional license equates to professional ability; but ability, excellence, and success only comes from experience. There is no substitute. Accept nothing less. Bev is always available to assist as needed!
