Vince Liuzza
Partner
I am a native New Orleanian who moved to the northshore in 1999. My passion for real estate began in the early 2000s as an investor in New Orleans’ Warehouse District and Pensacola Beach, Florida. After my family sold our restaurant business, Cucos Mexican Restaurants, I parlayed my business management and real estate investment experiences into a successful career as a realtor and formed Liuzza Realty Group in 2016, which is based in Mandeville.
From southeast Louisiana to the Florida panhandle, my specialty is high-end homes in luxury neighborhoods, such as The Sanctuary, where I am the expert broker and have handled over $75,000,000 in home sales. However, I provide the same level of service and professionalism whether listing a $100,000 home or a $1,000,000 home. My company is built on the foundation of my experience, professionalism, and attention to detail, and our unparalleled service is enhanced by our ongoing investments in cutting-edge technology, such as 3D Virtual Tours and Interactive Digital Storybook platforms, to guarantee that your home is marketed in the most exceptional manner possible. I understand the aggressive yet eloquent marketing that properties like yours deserve - and I have a track record of success.

Ricky Lemann
Partner
Ricky Lemann was born and bred in New Orleans’ Garden District. In 1985, he moved to New York City where he was involved in home video and television syndication until he discovered his natural ability to cook. He then embarked on what would become a thirteen-year career in the hospitality industry. After several culinary positions in New York, Ricky moved home in 1989 to co-own, consult, or have sole proprietorship of six local restaurant and nightclub establishments, most of which have enjoyed national press. After several years in a business that is tough to grow older in, Ricky knew it was time for a change. His own home buying experience led him to real estate. “During my period of searching, I experienced treatment by agents that was well... less than professional. I knew I could do better.” After purchasing his own home, he continued going to Sunday Open Houses. Friends and colleagues recognized his expertise in the New Orleans market area and sought out his advice and counsel
