Selling a House in New Orleans With Major Repairs Needed: Bringing a Property Back to Life
Selling a house that needs significant work can be difficult, especially when the property has become a burden because of the time, effort, or finances involved. For homeowners considering whether to sell a house as-is, this type of situation may provide an alternative to completing extensive repairs before selling. In the New Orleans metro area, Dillon King of Home Buyer Louisiana recently acquired a property after inspecting it for the team.
Dillon, who is also a general contractor, saw potential in the home’s structure and decided to acquire the property himself. After closing, he planned to pull the necessary permits and begin bringing the house back to life while also helping improve the property for the surrounding neighborhood.
You can watch the video to see the property and hear more about the situation, or read the video transcript below.

Hey everyone, it’s Dillon King with Home Buyer Louisiana. I work with Home Buyer Louisiana doing property inspections for properties that people tell us about through HomeBuyerLouisiana.com.
I’m also a general contractor. I own DNM King General Contractor, and we do a lot of work here in the New Orleans metro area. When I was here inspecting this property, someone went onto the website and told us about it. I knew I loved it. I love the structure, and I just closed on it a few days ago. Today is Wednesday, and we closed Friday, so I’m super excited to get in here, pull my permits, and bring this house back to life.
I am part of the Home Buyer Louisiana team, and it’s really exciting to be able to come in and acquire this property, help the seller who was ready to get out of the situation this house had them in, and then give me the opportunity to revive it, not only for the house but for the neighborhood.
If you have a property on your hands that you just need to get rid of, whether it’s time, effort, finances, whatever it may be, if you have heir situations, successions, things like that, go to HomeBuyerLouisiana.com and tell us about it.
I’ll be by to check it out, and we could buy your house as fast as possible and with cash.
