Selling an Inherited House in Holly Grove, New Orleans That Needs Repairs

Selling an inherited house can be difficult when the property has been neglected and needs significant work. In this Hollygrove, New Orleans property, the house was heavily overgrown, with broken windows, dry-rotted window framing, debris throughout the property, and signs that weather and rain were getting inside.

The relatives who inherited the house did not have the means or desire to figure out what to do with the property. Dillon King of Home Buyer Louisiana visited the property to inspect its condition before the company purchased the house for cash. The video gives a firsthand look at the property and explains how Home Buyer Louisiana helped the family move forward from an inherited house they no longer wanted to deal with.

What’s up, everybody? It’s Dillon King with Home Buyer Louisiana. I am here in the Hollygrove area of New Orleans, very close to Claiborne, just where it turns into Jefferson Highway. We’re on the cusp here, but we have an inherited house that is obviously very overgrown. Some of the limbs are even getting into the house, and the floor is on level. We can go over to the exterior, and I can show you a little bit behind me here.

If you look behind me, it’s overgrown. We’ve got windows that are broken, and we’ve got window framing that is dry-rotted. I can tell that weather and rain are able to get in, even on the inside. We’ve got a ton of debris left all over the property.

Like I said, it’s an inherited property. The relatives who have it now just don’t have the means or the desire to figure out what to do next with this. So they went to HomeBuyerLouisiana.com and told us about their situation and this house. I’m here inspecting it just to make sure it is as they described it to us.

We’re going to buy this house from them for cash, and we’re going to buy it as fast as we can to alleviate them of the headache and worry about it. So if you or someone you know has a property that they just want to get off their hands, tell them. Or you can go to HomeBuyerLouisiana.com and let us know about the property, and we’ll be in touch soon.
