Fire-Damaged Duplex in the Lower Ninth Ward with Foundation Issues

When most people see a house that’s been through a fire, they assume it’s unsellable. In this case, the property was a duplex in the Lower Ninth Ward that not only had significant fire damage but also had major foundation issues. To most buyers, this combination of problems would seem overwhelming.

For us at Home Buyer Louisiana, these are exactly the kinds of challenges we take on. The seller was actually someone we had worked with before, and he reached out again to see if we could help. Even though the numbers on this one are tight, we always try to find solutions that work for the homeowner.

You can watch the video to see the property and hear more about the situation, or read the video transcript below.

Hey, what’s up everybody. It’s Jon with Homebuyer Louisiana. I’m in a house out in the Lower Ninth Ward that, as you can see, has had some significant fire damage.

There’s a hole in the wall. It’s a duplex. Let me take you for a quick little tour inside the other unit. It’s looking pretty rough. There are some foundation issues on top of everything that was ruined by the fire.

The numbers on this one are going to be real tight, but we’re going to see what we can do. We’re going to put some numbers together after walking the property and see if we can help the seller out.

The seller is actually somebody we’ve worked with in the past, and we’re just trying to make it work for him if we can, just to help him out.

So yeah, we do work with fire damage. We do work with houses with foundation issues. If you have either, or anywhere in South Louisiana or coastal Mississippi, give us a shout.
