Many of my buyers when considering a home in Destrehan often ask about youth recreation. The Destrehan Booster Club is a strong force in providing year round activities for the children of St. Charles Parish. Currently DBC is offering open registration for Baseball and Softball. The Baseball  season is very exciting, game filled activity all season long. Some travel is involved  but only locally here in the St. Charles Parish.

Having such a club is great for community value. Have any questions please feel free to email.

267 Villere Dr.

Today is day 6 on my personal home listing.

Well it appears that both the appraisal and home inspection are done. We are awaiting the final reports. I feel so far so good and nothing major to report. The under contract status came just two days into the listing. Not to mention the multiple offer scenario.

Home in Destrehan LA seem to be in demand. Possible reasons:

  1. Low Crime rate
  2. Country Club life style
  3. Great Public Schools
  4. Appx 45 mins to downtown New Orleans

Biggest reason to a fast sell without giving away your property is listing with an agent who knows your area and price the property to sell.

It's getting to be that Time of Year

It's getting to be that Time of Year

I am starting to see to see the signs of Fall and the upcoming holiday season. If you go to Home Depot, Sams or Wal-Mart just take a look around. In addition, I am seeing more homes decorated in Destrehan LA for Holloween. Close to Destrehan there is a pumpkin patch farm. For years my kid's schools have made the annual field trip to Montz Pumpkin Farm and Hayride. Located at 17834 River Road, phone 985.652.3672.

Some tips for your Pumpkin lasting thru out the season.

•1. Try to pick off the vine

•2. Find a Pumpkin with as few as possible soft spots which will help with rot and mold

•3. Carving pick a large Pumpkin

•4. Don't carry your Pumpkin by the stem

•5. For Pumpkin Pie chose a small one

•6. Keep the Pumpkin in an undisturbed, cool and dark place once home for cure. This will toughen the rind and prevent rot.

Of course keep safety in mind when at the Pumpkin Patch.
