Only way I'll buy in the city any time soon is if the market comes way down. Market is pretty much inaccessible for young people unless they're making ungodly money or really sacrifice on neighborhood.

Yea, comparing NO to Houston. 
Houston has NO beat by 4x.

I don't find traffic in New Orleans that bad... I get the roads, crime, politics etc but traffic wouldn't be my complaint.

how is that a deflection to point out the obvious, that you're poorly traveled?

It's actually only on 3.8 acres. It was moved there in the 80's.
Check out this room, make note of the window unit and the floors.
I could see buying it and restoring it if your grandparents lived there or you had some other connection to it. But otherwise not no but hell no. In the original picture you can't see all the boarded up windows either...

Multiple states, countries, and continents.
Dirt roads are also terrible for Scruffy's car.

I remember a time when the Teche was more navigable than the Red River, Teche still leads in toxicity

People in New Orleans are dumb. It's almost like they forgot what happened there 9 years ago

Many French Quarter and Garden District property owners didn't have a bad Katrina.
Excessively broad generalizations are excessively broad.

Just like those stupid fricks buying property in Manhattan. I mean it's on an island surrounded by water that got hit by a hurricane more devastating than Katrina. What a lot of you are missing here is not what New Orleans was, but what's it's going to be. People would have laughed at you if you wanted to buy on South Beach in Miami in the late 80's. There are many more factors at work than what most of you are capable of realizing-most of which are not dependent on the idigeneous population, but rather the migratory. Could the bubble burst again...of course, but to people who know what factors to look for and have seen it at work in other cities previously they are all there.
ETA- the OP's example horribly decorated and the realtor sucks for not making them clear it out. The finish is average to below average, but if you look at the market over the last few years in the Marigny/Bywater 212 a sq ft is only moderately overpriced instead of outrageously overpriced. That said I wouldn't buy it because the property itself is quite unremarkable.

Okay, I shouldn't post while exhausted I'll give you that. Not clear and badly explained upon re-read. But my point stands that outside investors and buyers which are making up a good portion of the buyers market in New Orleans at the moment have few of the hang-ups that we as natives do.

A little further down in Park Timbers by Lakewood. We actually have yards and garages.

Meh, all depends on what you're looking for. I prefer Nola.
