Matilda Walston · Southland Realty Co LLCAbout Matilda
My path into real estate was shaped by my own experience with relocation, faith, and building a life rooted in purpose. I understand what it feels like to step into unfamiliar places and slowly turn them into home.
Today, I guide buyers and sellers across North Alabama with thoughtful strategy, honest communication, and my Presentation First Approach™ — ensuring every client feels fully supported as they move into their next chapter.
My faith in Christ is the foundation of how I live and serve. As a wife and mother of two boys, family is at the center of everything I do. North Alabama is more than my market — it is my home.

Presentation isn't an afterthought. It's the foundation of how your home enters the market. Before your home is ever listed, I ensure it is presented at its absolute best — because first impressions shape how buyers perceive value.

Your home's exterior prepared to feel clean, refined, and welcoming before buyers ever arrive.
Windows, surfaces, and presentation details that distinguish a home that captivates from one that's merely listed.

Communities I Serve
North Alabama is one of the South's best-kept secrets — a region of quiet strength, remarkable growth, and genuine community. Whether you're drawn to the energy of a growing city, the peace of lakefront living, or the warmth of small-town roots, I help families find exactly where their next chapter belongs.
Home to NASA, Redstone Arsenal, and a thriving tech economy, Huntsville blends Southern warmth with world-class opportunity. Top-rated schools, diverse neighborhoods, and a growing arts and food scene make this a destination families return to for generations.
Nestled along the shores of Guntersville Lake, Scottsboro offers the rare gift of small-town community without sacrificing beauty or connection. A pace of life that lets families breathe — where neighbors know your name and the water is always nearby.
One of Alabama's most stunning lake towns, surrounded by water, wildlife, and scenery that makes every morning feel like a retreat. For families seeking space, nature, and a slower, more intentional way of life, this is it.
One of North Alabama's fastest-growing communities — a welcoming city with strong schools, an active downtown, and a family-friendly culture rooted in Southern tradition. Ideal for those relocating who want community from day one.
Relocating to North Alabama
When you're moving to a new place, you're not only choosing a home — you're choosing a community, a pace of life, and the people your family will grow alongside. That's why I approach relocation with calm guidance, honest insight, and a plan that keeps you grounded from start to finish.
As an immigrant and a homeschool mom, I understand what it feels like to start fresh and build "home" in unfamiliar territory. I work especially well with families relocating to North Alabama who want space, community, and a lifestyle that supports what matters most — faith, family, and day-to-day peace.
Clear communication, steady guidance, and a no-pressure experience — so you never feel rushed, overwhelmed, or unsure of your next step.
Neighborhood guidance, practical lifestyle insight, and a strategy built around your family's needs — not just a zip code.
Kind Words From Clients
Helping families find the right home is something I take seriously. Here are a few words shared by people who know and trust me.
"Mattie is one of the most kind, honest, and trustworthy people I know. She is intelligent, thoughtful and puts genuine care into everything she does. I have no doubt she will make an excellent realtor and someone you can trust with such an important decision."
— Jennifer Olwenyi
"Working with Matilda Walston was a pleasure from the very beginning. She was professional, knowledgeable and incredibly responsive. Thank you Matilda for your care."
— Lindsey Miller Ruf
"My family and I met Matilda and her husband Jeff going to look at a house we found on realtor.com. A different agent was supposed to show up, but couldn't make it. God definitely knew what He was doing because meeting them that day changed our lives! Matilda asked me exactly what I was looking for, she also talked to my kids to see what they wanted, and her husband Jeff spent about an hour with us just getting to know us as people. Within 5 minutes of us getting back home, Matilda had sent a message showing us a remodeled house that was just put on the market that day. We fell in love with it and she put an offer in right then. She and Jeff explained everything. Answered every question. She became more than just my realtor but became a very close friend! They worked tirelessly through every obstacle to ensure we got this home. If you are looking for a realtor that actually cares and isn't just trying to put you in a home to get commission, this is your lady. She deeply cares for people and is one of the most loving, kind, and generous people I've ever met. The day we closed she gave us a gift with our family picture on the front steps of our new home, that we will cherish forever. She will listen to you, walk you through the process, and make sure she does everything in her power to get you in your dream home. She's so much more than just a realtor."
