About Louisiana

Selling a house in Louisiana

Baton Rouge is Louisiana's capital, and New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Shreveport, and Lafayette are its largest cities. The state's economy is tied to the Mississippi River and the Gulf: petrochemical plants and refineries, oil and gas, ports, and commercial fishing, along with a large tourism industry centered on New Orleans.

Louisiana is home to about 4,597,740 people across 64 counties. We buy houses in every one of them, from East Baton Rouge Parish, Jefferson Parish, Orleans Parish, and St. Tammany Parish to the smallest rural counties, and in cities like New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Shreveport, Lafayette, Lake Charles, and Kenner.

Its economy runs on petrochemicals and refining, oil and gas, ports and shipping, tourism and hospitality, healthcare and fishing and seafood. Major employers include Entergy, Lumen Technologies, Ochsner Health, ExxonMobil, and Turner Industries, and the state is home to Louisiana State University, Tulane University, and University of Louisiana at Lafayette. Visitors know it for Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve, New Orleans Jazz National Historical Park, The National WWII Museum, and Audubon Nature Institute.

Louisiana's housing skews mixed in age: 46% of homes predate 1980, and 33% of households rent, while 14% of housing sits vacant. A house that age usually needs updating before it lists; we buy it as-is, with no repairs or cleaning. Rentals sell with tenants in place, and we pay the closing costs.

Selling a house in Louisiana closes through a title company, which records the deed with the county and settles any liens or back taxes from the sale. Official information is on the state's portal, Louisiana.gov, and property tax questions go to the Louisiana Department of Revenue.

The real cost of listing

What listing your Louisiana house really costs you.

The asking price isn't what you take home. On a typical sale, around 10–12% of the price goes to commissions, closing costs and concessions, before repairs and the months of waiting.
