We buy houses in Kenner – Even if they smell really bad

Some houses need more than a little cleanup. This property in Kenner had been lived in by tenants who kept a large number of cats, and the odor had soaked into the drywall, flooring, and every corner of the house. It was the kind of smell that stays with you the moment you walk in, and the seller knew the only real solution would be a full gut job. Situations like this are more common than people think, especially in older rental homes across Jefferson Parish where long term tenants can sometimes leave unexpected challenges behind.

The landlord was older and ready to step away from managing rentals. After dealing with difficult tenants, animal damage, and a house that needed heavy repair work, she was simply tired. She reached out to us because she wanted to sell a rental property and knew we buy houses in as is condition. We were able to make a fair cash offer that let her leave the stress behind while giving us a property we could restore for a future homeowner or tenant.

Hey, what’s up everybody? It’s Jon from Home Buyer Louisiana. I’m out in front of a house in Kenner, Louisiana, that we are about to purchase. Let me walk you through the situation.

The seller of this property is an older landlord who had tenants that caused a lot of issues. They owned approximately 50 dogs and cats, which left the house in a very rough condition. Although you can’t tell from the video, the smell inside is pretty bad. There’s a lot of dust collected on the ceilings and ceiling fans, and the place is generally messy. There are also some pieces of old furniture, holes in the walls, and overall neglect.

The seller reached out to us because she was tired of being a landlord and ready to retire. We were able to work with her to agree on a price that met her needs. She’s excited to move on, and we’re equally excited to take on this new project in Kenner. Our plan is to renovate the property and restore it to its full potential.
