Tni LeBlanc’s family has lived on the Central Coast for over 25 years. She was born in Santa Barbara County and the family came to the Santa Maria Valley in 1986 to open a restaurant in the Santa Maria Town Center Mall. Tni attended local schools and began her college education right here at Allan Hancock College. In 1992, she moved to Atlanta, Georgia to pursue a Bachelor of Arts degree from Clark Atlanta University, which she received, summa cum laude, in 1995.
Subsequently, Tni obtained a law degree from Georgetown University Law Center and a Master of Arts in Philosophy from Georgetown University. After graduation, she began practicing law in Washington D.C., with Jones, Day, Reavis & Pogue; but she always had her eye on returning to the Central Coast. In preparation for that, she took and passed the California Bar on her first sitting. And, in 2000, she was nominated for and received a “Distinguished Alumni Award” from Allan Hancock. After years of working for Fortune 500 clients, Tni made the move back to the local area while working at the (then) largest law firm in Santa Barbara, Hatch & Parent.
In 2003, she received her real estate broker’s license and began her transition from attorney to real estate broker. She began Mint Properties in 2004, and by 2006, she opened her current office in the Mission Creek Plaza building on Santa Maria Way. Dr. Jamie LeBlanc began working as a real estate salesperson at Mint Properties after retiring as a local elementary school principal, and she and Tni now work as a mother-daughter team.
Tni’s stated aim is to offer the highest quality representation and professional service to her clients. Independence affords her the ability to avoid a volume driven approach; the result is prompt, reliable, individualized service coupled with straightforward advice. Indeed, she brings the same level of professionalism to real estate as she did to the law. Her clients range from sophisticated long term real estate investors to first time buyers.
In addition to serving her clients, Tni served as a board member for the Legal Aid Society of Santa Barbara County for many years (2006-2010). Currently, she serves on the Board of Directors of the Santa Maria Association of Realtors; and is a member of the Grievance Committee. In support of the local business community, Mint Properties is a proud member of the Santa Maria Valley, Nipomo, and Lompoc Valley Chambers of Commerce. In her spare time, Tni enjoys travel, reading, and spoiling her dogs Sugar, Spike & Isaac.
