The Homes

Old Metairie is known for stately homes on tree-lined streets near Metairie Country Club. Across Metairie and Kenner, you'll find ranch and Acadian-style houses, newer construction and gated communities like Gabriel, where 14 Royal Palm Boulevard pairs a pool and swim-up bar with a floating marble staircase.

Before You Buy

Flood zones and elevation vary from street to street, so insurance costs can change a great deal between two nearby homes. I review the flood zone, elevation and insurance picture with you before you make an offer, and I help you compare commutes to downtown and the airport.

Life here is built around easy errands, good schools, neighborhood restaurants and quick access to Lake Pontchartrain, the airport and the city.

For many buyers, Metairie and Kenner offer more space for the money while keeping New Orleans close. I help families, relocating buyers and downsizing owners find the right fit, and I help sellers show what makes their home stand out on a street of similar houses.
