algiers real estate market: Moving to Algiers, LA? Here's What You Need to Know... - 12/11/07 03:47 PM
 
Algiers is the only part of the city of New Orleans located on the West Bank of the Mississippi River and feels more like a small town than part of a metropolitan area.  A large number of people (like me!) who grew up in Algiers have stayed to raise their own families here, making it a very friendly community to live in.  We actually live next door to family, which is not so uncommon here.
Algiers Point is the historic portion of upper Algiers, settled in the early 1700's and placed on the National Register of Historic places in 1978.  Insider tip:  … (7 comments)

algiers real estate market: Algiers Market Update, August 2007 - 08/21/07 05:48 AM
Many of my sellers are wondering (and asking me) "Why hasn't my house sold yet?"  Algiers has historically been a pretty easy place to sell real estate in, choices in schools abound, location is great, and crime is low.... what's the problem?
 
It's easy to SAY that the market has changed substantially in our post Katrina real estate environment, but the numbers prove it.
This information is provided by the Gulf South Real Estate Information Network
As of 8/1/2007, there were 366 active listings in the Algiers area, with an average list price of $235,841.   Who is fooling who here?
