The Slappening

What's New In Real Estate & Life In New Orleans

January’s newsletter must’ve hit harder than Will Smith at the Oscars, ‘cause we forgot to send out February’s. But hey… keep our [newsletter’s] name out your f*ckin’ mouth.

But alas, we’re finally back. Mardi Gras went off without a hitch and it feels like the good times are here to stay. Before you know it, we’ll be grooving at Jazz Fest with a cold-one in our hand. In the meantime, we've been taking full advantage of the two good days of New Orleans weather before the swamp-ass is upon us. The lawn-darts are flying and the cocktails are flowing, so head on down to the backyard of our world HQ for an all-you-can-drink Happy Hour. Any day, any time. If you’re lucky, our reigning featherweight shot-taking champion Cameron may challenge you to a friendly competition.

With March Madness descending on the city, we anticipate that the high-rollers will snap up these new listings. So get ‘em while they’re hot, or brace for a slappening.
