What area in Laffy you looking to buy in? I have a house I'm thinking of selling (not on market). Near Congress and Ambassador. 10 yr old. Pool.
It's leased but with agreement that if I sell, it gone

Wait like 6 months and it'll be a buyer's market.
Maybe as few as 3, but yeah, 3 to 6 months would look good to me.

I'll never understand that. Is it really that important for someone to get into a certain neighborhood that they are willing to buy a home just to tear it down and completely rebuild?
In some states they will donate the house to a fire department who will burn it down as training for a recruiting classes. The homeowners then write part of it off as a donation.

The most ridiculous thing is your aggravating assault on spelling and grammar.

There are about 12, that are for sale, in my neighborhood
6 months ago, when I bought, there might've been 2 or 3, and they didn't last long.
Eta: in Youngsville

It's similar in Dutchtown too. Houses pop up for sale in my neighborhood, but hardly make it a week before there is a "Sold" sign on top of the realtors sign.
Btw: anybody have luck negotiating with listing agents in this market? Seems like they'd be willing to take less of a cut knowing the house will essentially sell itself.

I just don't want to miss the low interest rates.
1) Raising interest rates may well put a damper on price growth.
2) Rates in a year are still going to be quite attractive by long-term standards
3) If rates go up and back down, you can always refi. If you overpay a house, you overpay forever. Plus, unless you are going to pay cash, the lender won't go for it anyways.
The all cash deals crack me up. Pay more than asking price and pay in cash. No house is worth that to me.
Not in Lafayette, but we just closed on a house 2 and a half weeks ago. It took me a year to find the type, size, location, and price house I wanted. And it was a FSBO where we knew the owner.
