Rima Hodgeson

Meet Rima

Home is more than an address—it's where your story unfolds.

I'm Rima, a wife, mother, daughter, and REALTOR® with Compass proudly serving Baton Rouge, the surrounding communities, and beyond.

Whether you're buying your first home, selling a home filled with memories, relocating, building new construction, investing, or searching for a luxury property, I take the time to understand what matters most to you.

Before beginning my real estate career, I earned a Bachelor of Science in Dietetics from Louisiana State University and worked as a diabetes educator. That experience taught me the importance of listening, educating, staying organized, and providing personalized guidance based on each person's unique needs. Those same values continue to guide the way I serve every client today.

As a REALTOR® with Compass, I combine local market knowledge with clear strategy and personalized service to help buyers, sellers, investors, and relocation clients navigate every stage of the real estate journey. My goal is to make the process feel organized, informative, and as stress-free as possible by communicating clearly, answering your questions honestly, and helping you make decisions that feel right, with no pressure.

No two clients are alike, and your real estate experience should be as unique as your goals. I believe in treating others the way I would want to be treated—with honesty, respect, and genuine care. Whether you're buying, selling, or investing, I'm here to help you move forward feeling good about it.

It would be my privilege to help you with your next move.

Your Vision. My Commitment

Get to Know Rima a Little Better

Friendly answers about how I work, where I serve across Baton Rouge, and what I bring to buyers and sellers.

Where does Rima work?

I serve Baton Rouge and the neighborhoods around it, including Bocage, Mid City, Southdowns, and the Garden District. Because I know these areas well, I can help you understand the feel of each neighborhood, what pricing looks like, and where the right opportunities may be.

What is it like to work with Rima?

I work with both buyers and sellers, and I keep the process clear, steady, and personal from start to finish. Whether you need help with pricing, showings, strategy, or negotiations, I will give you straight advice and keep you in the loop every step of the way.

What credentials does Rima have?

I hold the Accredited Buyer's Representative (ABR®) and Seller Representative Specialist (SRS) designations, and I am BGRS relocation certified. That training is focused on representing buyers and sellers well — and it means I know how the other side of the table thinks.
