Selling a Distressed Double As Is in New Orleans East

We recently visited a distressed double in New Orleans East near Chef Menteur Highway and Old Gentilly Road. The seller had listed the property with an agent but needed a faster, more reliable solution. Issues with the house made a traditional sale difficult, and the owner wanted a simple way to move on without dealing with repairs.

The home had uneven floors, sagging ceilings, roof concerns, water damage, and sections already opened up and gutted. With two units and long-term wear and tear, the property had become a source of stress for the owner. In the video, Dillon walks through the structure and shows the damage throughout both units.

For sellers in similar situations, Home Buyer Louisiana offers an option to sell a house as-is that helps them get cash quickly without spending time or money fixing the property. Whether you’re dealing with selling inherited property or coordinating with multiple family members, the process can be simplified with an as-is cash sale.

Hey. Dillon with Home Buyer Louisiana. I’m at another property in New Orleans, close to Chef Menteur Highway and Old Gentilly Road in that general area.

Go to homebuyer.com and fill out the survey to tell us about your property, how to get in touch with you, and see if we can help.

This is a double. I can see in the tile that there’s uneven groundwork. It’s raised on piers, and while you may not see it clearly in the video, the floor is uneven. The roof looks new, but there are clear ceiling issues. One area has already been opened up and gutted. Even in the kitchen, there’s visible warping and sagging in the ceiling. Along with roof concerns, there’s significant water damage, including under the sinks.
