She is active in Children's Miracle Network (a RE/MAX sponsored charity), and local charitable foundations including Impact 100 Baldwin County and Orange Beach Elementary School.
It is a dream come true for Leigh to now reside in Orange Beach, Alabama on the beautiful Alabama Gulf Coast, where her family has vacationed for over 45 years.

Leigh Dillon's Reviews

Leigh McPherson was recommended to us by a realtor in a neighboring town. We called her, without much notice, and she took time out of her busy weekend to scheduled property showings. She is extremely knowledgeable about the Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area. She pointed out pros and cons of the properties we viewed allowing us to make a knowledgeable decision as to the property that would best suit our needs.
