We’re incredibly proud to share that Tom Bookhardt, Managing Broker and CEO at United Real Estate Partners has been voted Best Real Estate Broker in St. Tammany Parish for 2025—an honor that means the world to us because it comes from the community we love and serve.

This recognition, part of The Times-Picayune’s annual “Best of St. Tammany” awards, celebrates local excellence across a wide range of industries, and being selected is a true reflection of the dedication, growth, and heart behind everything we do at UREP.

In the past few years, United Real Estate Partners has expanded significantly, welcoming powerhouse teams like Team Geaux and Real Estate Resource Group into our brokerage family. These partnerships brought decades of local experience, strong leadership, and a shared commitment to exceptional service. Together, we’ve continued to build a brokerage where agents feel supported and empowered—and where clients receive unmatched care in both residential and commercial real estate. We pride ourselves on being a truly full-service brokerage, equipped to support our clients in every aspect of their real estate journey. Beyond residential sales, our Property Management and Commercial Divisions allow us to meet a wide range of needs—from hands-on management of rental properties, to commercial sales, leasing, and investment guidance. Whether you're buying your first home, growing a portfolio, or expanding your business footprint, our experienced team is here to provide expert support every step of the way.

As we continue to expand, it's important to recognize that behind every successful transaction and our growing partnerships is our incredible support staff. From operations and agent development to marketing and technology, they are the ones working tirelessly behind the scenes to make our agents' lives easier and their businesses stronger. This award is just as much theirs as it is anyone’s.
