re: This week in New Orleans real estate

I've posted about my great aunt's house on BSJ with a quasi-basement. This looks like the same sort of construction, maybe a tiny bit less buried. The architecture in that neighborhood is pretty unique for NOLA circa 1910. I wonder if it's been studied much.
It's not where I'd put $750,000+, but that house has a lot going for it. It's hard to argue with size + location (and don't kid yourself... that's a big house).

Hummmm? Install a gun slit under that front window and you're good to go.

Compared to the rest of homes that have sold in that area recently, or their assessments(which I know are typically under-assessed).
If you are a rational human-being you wouldn't pay that much for it
The seller is throwing out a reach price and maybe there is a professional homosexual couple from out of state who finds the "bohemian lifestyle" and "good government" of New Orleans appealing who will pay for that.

Yeah my house in DFW is a less then that and I’m paying almost $11k in property taxes. So not laughable to me
Or private school tuition.
Sorry, don’t complain about high taxation to a Louisianan.

$775k buys you cracked steps, a hideous paint job, no yard and a dilapidated roof.
I’d buy it tomorrow if I could, although I’d offer less bc of the work that needs to be done
I grew up around that area - and the schools have always been shitty and the chance for rape was always a possibility
Good to see some things haven’t changed

I like that one. I also like this one at $163 sq ft. But admittedly, I know nothing about NOLA real estate and neighborhoods.

Off of De Saix Blvd. that area has always interested me, practically have City Park as your front yard. Seems reasonable for us nonballers

The Jack Bartlett shooting was the last straw for my dad, and that was in the early 1990s.

A better buy would be this house in the 7th Ward. Beautiful home in a rapidly gentrifying area.

oh wow I would love to buy that house.

That whole wedge of land from the Marigny back to Gentilly could be so great, if Orleans Parish could just get the most basic of things right. And I say this as a person who hates about 65% of the neighborhoods in NOLA proper.

Yeah but you can rent it out for a lot.

Your property taxes are actually going somewhere (decent public schools, functioning infrastructure, etc.) We in Nola have nothing to show for our taxes.
This is true, they fix certain streets or just a couple of blocks of it and leave the rest shite for months or years on end then come back.
Or they encourage you to clean out your own drains, but heaven forbid your bumper is sticking a lil bit into the side walk.

Oh I remember that - I was about 10/11 - one of my friends that lived in that neighborhood (actually a few houses down from the park named after him) - her dad was a little over protective afterward but it wore off after a while - he still lives there

The only thing more ridiculous than the amount I spend in rent to live in the CBD is how the rents weren't any cheaper farther away from the city center.

You know who buys that shite, not the blacks, the white liberals with a BLM bumper sticker on their Subaru.
i guess so... those kind of people look in just Orleans Parish. Anywhere else is icky Trumpland to them in this metro area.
Meanwhile other people could look in Mandeville, Harahan, River Ridge, Meraux, Pearl River, etc... but if they ever say they live in New Orleans, they get canceled and accused of appropriating New Orleans

I appreciate that y'all enjoy living in Denham/Ascension Parish in your "mansion" in a clear cut subdivision, but you clearly don't understand real estate.

Desoto is a very nice street.

I remembered when he was gunned down. That neighborhood always had an element of danger because of armed robberies and a couple of murders in the 1980s. But it was still safe by New Orleans standards.
