I cannot recommend Kara enough. I was lucky enough to be able to buy my first home during COVID-19…read more The short of it is that I got a fantastic house in a great neighborhood and Kara helped me negotiate for a much bigger price reduction (and more repairs) then someone would normally get ($21,000 off, plus around $2,500 in additional repairs). When I decided to buy a house, I looked for an experienced, full-time, realtor (as recommended by the first time home buyer books) and Kara popped up as the top person pretty much immediately. Her reviews felt too good to be true but it's not a lie, she is seriously THE BEST at her job. Here are just a few reasons why Kara is amazing: 1) Very fast communication. Responds to random questions sent via text or email pretty quickly. Very helpful at answering basic questions, even about things that technically aren't her purview (e.g., questions about mortgages). 2) Very deep knowledge. She knows pretty much everything and is very happy to share what she knows to make the extire experience easy for first-time home buyers. She also knows a lot about different neighborhoods in New Orleans. 3) Extremely organized and prepared. She has handouts/emails prepared to help you at every step. She is very organized with providing you with paperwork that you can e-sign. She provided me with a whole folder with all my paperwork after the sale. You really don't have to worry about much. 4) Very transparent and honest. As an economist I worry that realtors have incentives to show you houses that give them a better commission, or don't help you negotiate as much in order to get a faster sale. I was never worried about that with Kara. When ever she suggested certain strategies, she made clear why and was very open to questions. I never felt like there were any motives for her other than sincerely caring about getting the best outcomes for home buyers. 5) Very thorough. Technically realtors are just supposed to help you get the house, but Kara helped with getting me a good termite contract, gave me information on how to set up utilities, get homeowners insurance, get my homestead exemption, etc. She goes above and beyond. 6) The best realtor for first time home buyers. This was my first time buying a house and it a was A LOT to learn and consider. It was pretty overwhelming at first but Kara made it easy by explaining the process and providing updates, and providing detailed information at each step. It was very manageable. 7) Genuinely enjoyable to work with. Kara is very friendly and helpful and while a lot of the tasks you have to complete to buy a house can feel like a chore, I sincerely enjoyed working with Kara. I am sure I am missing some good things to say but i'll leave it at that. These was honestly nothing about working with her that I didn't like or that didn't go well. This is coming from an academic so we are normally extremely critical.

Katie took the time to understand our needs and arranged all the appropriate inspections. Ultimately we determined, through a few weeks of due diligence, that this was not the perfect house for us. She supported us with this difficult decision and helped us navigate the process of letting it go. I always look forward to speaking with her in person or on the phone and look forward to working with her again for the next opportunity.

The absolute BEST, not just in New Orleans but possibly the country. I've worked with 4 different…read morereal estate agents in the past and Katie provided more value when compared with all those "agents" combined. Not all real estate agents are created equal; not even close. Katie is the most knowledgeable, organized, personable, and strategy-oriented real estate agent I have ever known. Additionally, she is highly educated and I believe that her background in statistics makes a difference. We got my house under contract for asking price. When the buyers' inspection report came up with major repairs, Katie managed them when I left town. She has a short list of great people she calls on when help is needed, from staging to home improvements. Again, I can't imagine that there is one other real estate agent in the entire country that is better than Katie. If you choose her to be your agent, you definitely won't regret it.

Alison and Troy Barrios go above and beyond, to the moon and back, to assist and represent their…read moreclients in all of their real estate transactions. I should know as I have now completed two successful sales with this company - a small business with a huge heart and unyielding work ethic. My first transaction took place when the firm was in its early stages, and it was not a conventional sale. I was an out-of-state property owner looking to sell an unusual home in a part of town that was dealing with a lot of inventory and rapid change. Alison found the perfect buyer who happened not to have the perfect credentials to buy a home. Alison did not let that deter either party, however. She worked out a brilliant rent-to-own contract that provided a steady income for me while the client obtained financing, and helped me to sell the home successfully in under two years. My second transaction was slightly more typical. About two years ago, I again found myself being an out-of-state homeowner of a large house in Lakewood South. The home was just beginning to show signs of age as major rains and floods hit New Orleans. There was damage to part of one of the buildings that would have spelled nightmare for me had I not had Troy, who is also one of the most trustworthy, hardworking, and friendly human beings in the Greater New Orleans area. He arranged for a construction crew not only to patch up the issues but also to add improvements to the home, which I'm certain helped to sell it. All done with the proper permits and all for extraordinarily reasonable prices. Then both Troy and Alison helped to represent my interests with buyers who were aggressively trying to squeeze every last penny out of the deal. They used smart language in the counter offer that offered a fair solution to both the buyer and seller side of the transaction. However, the way the Barrios Real Estate Group helped during my moving out preparations is what is most impressive and memorable. Again, I live 1,300 miles away from this home, so traveling to the property to clean it out and pack my belongings wasn't going to be easy, especially over Memorial Day Weekend, the only time I could have a few days off work to do it. But with the Barrios Real Estate Group on my side, I didn't have to worry! They found friendly, inexpensive, and efficient vendors to deal with the clean-up, as well as storing and moving our remaining belongings. In addition, they found a title service company that was no-nonsense and accommodating. They even helped me to get some cash for some leftover furniture items that I didn't want! I can't say enough nice things about this small business with big talent and big impact. Throughout they are friendly and act intelligently, always with the client-friendly outcome in mind. They serve a diverse group of neighborhoods, price points, and types of housing. Their knowledge of and passion for real estate in New Orleans is amazing. I give them my highest recommendation.

A Dream Realtor - Ami Adzitso is Simply the Best!…read more If you're looking for a realtor who truly goes above and beyond, look no further than Ami Adzitso. From our very first conversation, Ami exuded professionalism, warmth, and deep expertise. She made what could have been a stressful home-buying (or selling!) experience feel exciting, empowering, and smooth from beginning to end. Ami has a remarkable eye for detail and an intuitive understanding of the market. She didn't just help us find a house -- she helped us find our home. Her communication was flawless, her dedication unwavering, and her integrity unmatched. She answered every question with patience, gave honest advice, and advocated for us every step of the way. What really sets Ami apart is her genuine passion for helping people. She listens, she cares, and she delivers -- with grace, kindness, and an infectious energy that makes you feel like you're her only client. And yet, she's clearly in high demand -- because she's that good. I can't recommend Ami Adzitso enough. Whether you're buying, selling, or just starting to explore, do yourself a favor and reach out to her.
