Baton Rouge home prices are all jacked up. I went to look at some homes this weekend and they got contractors in U Club trying to sell pieces of crap for $210 a sq/ft. Homes that don't even have real wood in them. Then I went to a home in Rouzan (fricking vomit) and this people wanted $250 sq/ft, which was dropped from $300 sq/ft. The home wasn't even anything to write home about. It was OK, but not $300 sq/ft nice. Those are fricking Hays Town prices. fricking greedy arse real estate agents and unrealistic price gouging home owners...This post was edited on 2/22/17 at 3:05 pm

I don't understand why people are putting up with that shite. I really want a house in Southdowns or garden district but I am not going to pay just to live in those areas. the house has to be worth it. But you got a bunch of young people paying well over what it should cost just because they want to be in the area. Idiots

People so badly want to live in certain areas that they will overpay. BR in the LSU/Southdowns area is very different than suburban BR. Some amazingly shitty homes selling for 500k+ in southdowns.
I see someone else recognizes this phenomenon.This post was edited on 2/22/17 at 3:24 pm

Really? Those houses have always been priced $250ish and lower per sqft. Was that a fsbo or a realtor trying to previously sell it for $300 sqft? Because that's retarded, especially since Level is building in there

I tell you what smart guy...you need to get educated. Go buy a lot in U Club and add up all the EBR permitting fees, traffic impact fees, sewer fees, construction loan interest, cost of house plans, THEN, price out the materials at a lumberyard, get a plumbing package, appliances.....break ground and subcontract it out yourself. I bet you would rethink everything when the cost come in.
I know the Rouzan house very well.
While I do agree that it was mistakenly overpriced as a FSBO, I think you don't have a clue as to what you want and the cost associated with it.
