⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can’t recommend them enough! I needed to find a place and move in as quickly as possible, and they made it happen. They listened to exactly what I was looking for, respected my budget, and never tried to upsell me or push more expensive options. Every recommendation matched my needs. The whole process was incredibly efficient, fast, and stress-free—exactly what I needed during a very hectic time. They truly went above and beyond to help me secure my new home. They were an absolute lifesaver, and I’m so grateful for their professionalism, honesty, and dedication. Thank you!

Great communication! Repeat client

This is the second time I've had Steve Richards as my realtor for selling my home in New Orleans. There was no question in my mind about who I would reach out to 10 years after the first sale. Steve has great knowledge about the New Orleans market, neighborhood development, and what clients are looking for. He is deeply connected in the city, and works in tandem with other agents and agencies in the community. At one point, I entrusted him in looking for a home while I was 2000 miles away. He made the selling experience clear and convenient, handled tenants with care, offered suggestions and solutions when necessary, and communicated clearly throughout the process. I highly recommend Steve Richards for your New Orleans housing needs, whatever they may be. Without hesitation, I trust his expertise.

Steve is the best...reliable, knowledgeable, trustworthy, dogged; found a buyer, made process easy.

For years, Steve Richards (and Byron Kennedy) have kept my three French Quarter units rented with excellent tenants...always on the sidelines to help when needed. When it was time to sell, Steve came through even though the market was slow. There were some VCC repairs and other hurdles to jump before closing, but Steve's advice, expertise and rapport with the tight-knit French Quarter real estate community made the whole sale process smooth and easy. I always felt in good hands with Steve, he knows what he's doing.
