Keller Williams Baton Rouge
I woke up this morning at 6 a.m. on Thursday in Baton Rouge, LA and to my surprise it was snowing. In southeast Louisiana snow is something that you don’t see very often, maybe if you are lucky once every 5 years! Dropped the kiddie off at school only to have turn right back around and get her. See, since we are not use to snow the schools close because Baton Rouge’s roadways can not handle the snow and further more people do not know how to drive in snow.
The last time I saw snow was in December 2004 in New Orleans on Christmas day, which was really odd, yes folks, New Orleans had a white Christmas first time in my life that has ever happened. No surprise that Katrina hit that following summer in August 2005. Southeast Louisiana’s weather is very unpredictable one day it’s snowing and by the weekend it will be in the low 60s. It’s 8 a.m. and as you can imagine the snow has stopped and is beginning to melt into a wet mess. I must say that during our little “snow storm” it was absolutely beautiful and for others like me who were not in the Christmas mood this certainly made me feel like a child again, it felt like Christmas time in the city.

The question of year that I have been asked on almost a daily basis: “How’s the Real Estate Market”. As a real estate professional whose career is based on helping buyers and sellers sell their home I am here to shed some truth on the Baton Rouge real estate market. Baton Rouge’s Real Estate Market is doing GREAT! An article was printed today in the Baton Rouge Business Report stating that Louisiana banks are strong and homes selling between $150(k)-200(k) are moving.
I must agree with the Baton Rouge Business Report. As a buyer if your credit is decent at least a 580 and you have 3% to put down with an FHA loan or 5% down with a conventional loan than you are in good shape. Long are the days of 100% shady credit lending and this is the way that lending was meant to be. Some sellers are stressing that we are in a “buyers market” which is true; in some locations. Sellers wonder how long it will take to sell their home and that there is an abundance of inventory. Inventory is slightly higher than it was last year; now here is the secret: PRICE, CONIDITION, and LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION is what will sell a home in the shortest amount of time.
I hate to sound so cliché but it’s simply the truth when it comes to real estate. Just last week I listed 3 homes and all three were under contract in 3 days. Two of the homes were in mint condition and in a very hot part of town and the other home was priced just right for an investor.
