I thought this storm was the end of the city. If anyone had told me two weeks ago that I'd be getting the calls and e-mails I'm getting, I would have thought he was ready for the psychiatric ward. |
It's going to be an enormous housing boom. |
Right after the storm, if I had heard myself talking like I am now, about setting records in some offices and posting three record-breaking months in a row, I would've wondered what Kool-Aid this guy was drinking. But every day it gets crazier and crazier in a positive way. |
The key to property value in New Orleans is in the hands of the U.S. Congress. Until Congress O.K.'s the money to build the levees to withstand Category 5 hurricanes, there will always be a question about properties here. |
There doesn't need to be this personal relationship with your assessor. That's a thinly veiled way to say, 'Come see me. We'll work out a deal. |

We are just having a record-breaking year. We were already very active before the hurricane, but nothing like we are seeing now. |
We could sell another gazillion houses today. |
