Meet Derek Benoit – Your Trusted Real Estate Expert in Southwest Louisiana
I’m Derek Benoit, a lifelong resident of Southwest Louisiana, and for me, real estate isn’t just a career—it’s a passion and a way to serve my community. As a husband to my wonderful wife, Lori, and proud father of two incredible sons, Daniel and John, my family is the foundation of everything I do. They remind me every day that there’s truly no place like home.
My faith in God is my guiding force, driving me to approach everything I do with integrity, hard work, and a genuine desire to help others. For over 20 years, I’ve been involved in the real estate world, initially on the investment side—working in residential building, development, and rental income properties. I’ve had the privilege of serving on a local real estate board, and my determination to diversify my skills has shaped me into a well-rounded professional. Whether it’s as a certified welder and CDL driver, a state-licensed contractor in electrical and heavy construction, or an operator in various local industries for over 20 years, I’ve built a unique set of experiences that I bring to every real estate transaction.
I believe in the power of relationships, and that’s why my approach to real estate is all about understanding my clients’ needs and working tirelessly to make their dreams come true. Whether you’re buying, selling, or investing, I’ll be with you every step of the way, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience.
When I’m not working with clients, I’m giving back to my church and community, serving as a volunteer and teaching Bible classes for both youth and adults for over 25 years. My family and I enjoy traveling and embracing adventure, whether that means skydiving, snow skiing, zip-lining, or riding roller coasters—life’s about making memories and embracing the journey.
If you’re looking for a real estate agent who not only understands the local market but also has a deep commitment to hard work, integrity, and building lasting relationships, I’m here to help. Let’s connect and make your real estate dreams a reality!
