Vacant Distressed Property in Bywater New Orleans Needing an As-Is Sale

We recently visited a vacant property just off St. Claude near the Bywater in New Orleans. The owner, an investor, had shifted toward commercial projects and no longer wanted to hold onto this house. With the property sitting empty for a long time, it had become more of a burden than an opportunity.

The home showed clear signs of vacancy. The tarps were worn from weather, vegetation had overgrown the exterior, and the windows were boarded up. Dillon walked through the structure to assess the condition and understand what the seller was dealing with after the client reached out to our team.

This video shows the type of distressed houses we often help sellers with. Even when a property is boarded up or neglected, choosing to sell a house as-is can be a simple solution. It also helps when you want the speed and convenience that comes with selling to a cash buyer.

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

Dillon King with Home Buyer Louisiana here. I’m just off St. Claude near the Bywater in New Orleans. An investor recently decided to move toward more commercial projects, and this property had a lot of potential but has been sitting vacant for a long time. I can tell because many of the tarps are worn and torn from the weather.

These are the kinds of houses we get. Whatever you have on your hands, don’t worry about what it looks like or doing renovations. This property is overgrown, the tarps are damaged, and the windows were boarded up. I even had to unboard it to get inside and see what we were working with when the client reached out to us.

No matter the condition of your property, just go to HomeBuyerLouisiana.com. You’ll find a form where you can tell us about the house you want to sell and how to contact you, and our team will follow up.
