New Orleans Area Residential Real Estate Firms Merge Operations

Two families unite in new union.

cEnery Residential has expanded its Covington office, doubling in size through a merger with The Morse Team, a family-owned real estate company with over 40 years of experience in St. Tammany Parish.

    The move follows McEnery's acquisition of Delery Comarda Realtors and its 21 agents in May 2024. With this expansion, McEnery Residential now has three offices across the Greater New Orleans area, employing over 70 real estate agents.

    The Morse Team was founded by Kay Morse, who retired after 34 years in 2020. Her daughters, Candy and Melody, and granddaughter, Kate, will join McEnery Residential's Covington office, led by Dugger Koenig and Margot Castaing Rainold.

    "This union brings together two trusted names in St. Tammany Parish real estate," a press release states. "Candy, Melody, and Kate share our values of integrity and vision, making them a natural fit for the McEnery Residential brand."
