I have been married to my wonderful wife Letha for 29 years. We have 3 children: Max, Alexander and Charlotte. I have been a licensed Realtor in the New Orleans area for 19 years and am the Operator of The Tepper Group with Keller Williams Realty in Mandeville. Our team services the entire New Orleans and Baton Rouge metro areas. Our team of partners has well over 40 years of experience. In 2024 we helped 132 families buy, sell and lease homes, land and commercial investments.

The Southeast Louisiana real estate market shifted in 2024, and whether you’re buying or selling, staying informed is key.

Homes also took longer to sell last year. In 2023, homes sold in about 53 days. In 2024, it took 65 days—an extra 12 days on average. If you’re selling, this means adjusting your expectations and being ready for a longer wait.

Expired listings are also way up from 2023. In 2023, 6,571 listings didn’t sell. By 2024, that number jumped 29% to over 9,100. This rise in unsold homes points to issues like overpricing, poor marketing, or a slower market overall.

What does this mean for buyers and sellers? For buyers, the market is still competitive, but there are opportunities—especially in the luxury market. For sellers, it’s more important than ever to price your home correctly and have a strong marketing plan. Quick sales aren’t as common as they once were.
