My wife and I are looking for a house to renovate in NOLA right now. For example, we looked at a termite ridden, complete reno project of around 2200 sq ft in Bayou St. John neighborhood. No back or front yard to speak of. Asking price was $300k. It ended up with 10+ bids in a matter of a week and it went for WAY over list.

Even houses in transitional neighborhoods that are gut jobs are going for no less than $150k. You can buy a brand new 2000 sq ft house for that on the northshore with as much yard as you want.

On the flip side you can buy nice houses in Gentilly, N.O. East even Holy Cross for $150k all day.

In NOLA you pay for lot and location exclusively. The structure on it is almost an afterthought unless its a renovated mansion.

I thought he was 28-30.

And in my world view, if you live in Louisiana and have a 400k house at 30 your are rich

paying the note on $400k would be nothing. Even if you only did 5% down and had PMI. You need to do well to swing it, but certainly not "rich."

It's not bad, and I'm not rich at all.

My point was if you are actually rich in this city, the problems of high priced housing, no good public schools, and poor opportunities for business dont really matter as much to you

monthly note is $2700 a month

Swinging a $2700/month note at 30 is fricking good. But this is the mighty OT, so frick it

It's not rich though. You need to be in a good career, or in a dual income household, but it's not terrible to swing.

ETA: The issue is you said rich. Just own it.

Well you probably should since you also said $400k is top 3% in New Orleans.

ETA: You'll notice you said you haven't backed down an inch, so I'm holding you to your original comments.

Do you own property in NOLA? Simple question.

No, and that has nothing to do with anything. Again, run along.

ETA: Actually, I own a small part of commercial property in the WHD. SO STFU now.
