This is a great area and has been for 20 years. There are few condos in River Ridge but Steamship Circle was reserved for condo developements. The area is primarily residential but is near a lot of things. I sold this condo about 8 years ago and recently listed it. It looks much better than when I sold it Yoni and Kathy. You can get a overall view of the area by viewing the Steamship neighborhood.

One of the nice things about showing in a variety of areas is that the experience is always changing. I have been showing a lot in the French Quarter of New Orleans. Its a small area so walking is the best way to show. You have plenty of time to get to know your client along with getting some great shots with the camera.
This is not my prime area but do get to show here at least every couple of weeks. The area has really come back to life after a sleepy 2 years following Katrina. Its great to have a positive approach as an area comes to life. Just another great experience. Once its gets hot a lot of the fun leaves but its great for 8-9 months. Walking may be making a return with these fuel prices.
I write a lot of local blogs on my New Orleans Condo Trends blogs. It does always have to be strictly about facts and figures. My clients want to see what the neighborhoods are about and how historic New Orleans neighborhoods can be. My site is about condos but they are in these neighborhoods and many people have no idea what to expect. So many times people think negative thoughts of living in a city that flooded and has had it share of problems. New Orleans is often called the "City That Care Forgot". In this brief blog I tried to tie two of my hobbies plants and photos into selling New Orleans Condos. Check out the GardenDistrict Azalea Blog.
I was showing condos last week and I took my camera to write a blog about thisngs you see while showing on a weekend in the New Orleans French Quarter. I came across this one and wondered what they were advertising. The blog came out great and will most likely only do one like that this month,lol. Take a look at the blog and give me some ideas about this store in a courtyard. No I did not venture in. Maybe next week.

French Quarter Condos, Showings of French Quarter Condos is an experience!
Just wonder ing why no one mentions Localism and the great furure it seemed to hold when active rain was booming with new ideas. I rarely see posts on the subject and thought I would bring it up again.
One of the great things about the localism photos is that you can string togeather a group of photos that can really give you a feel for the neighborhood. I would like the series to stay put but as other agents start inserting it may ad to it. Being a local expert in the area lets me put some descriptions that ties the area togeather. The New Orleans Warehouse District is one of my areas of concentration. Just wanted to pass on what a series of photos and descriptions can do for you. I like to describe it as a lifestyle text/photo.

New Orleans Uptown/Garder District Condos
We had previously met Eric when we had first started looking at houses about a year ago. We were viewing houses on our own , and Eric happened to be getting ready to show another house on the same street. When we entered the house ( what we thought was a nice house) , Eric was quick to point out all of the flaws that would need to be fixed with the house, and the asking price was way too high. So..about a year later we called Prudential about a house that was recently listed with them, and Eric answered the phone. Immediately, I knew I wanted Eric as our realtor, because of his honesty, and his straight-forward personality. We were able to purchase the house we wanted, and Eric was helpful through out the process. Eric, did not try and push us to agree to anything, just to get the sale. I believe it is very is very important to be able to feel comfortable with your realtor, and not have a realtor who trys to get you to compromise on what you really want in a house, or the price you are willing to pay for a house. Eric did neither of these. If I ever need to purchase , or sell a house again, I would definitely hire Eric , and I would recommend Eric to friends , family, strangers, ect. anyone that I hear is trying to buy or sell a house. Thanks Eric Jennifer
