      <title>1312 Jefferson St, Gretna LA Home for Sale</title>
      <description>&lt;b&gt;Newer Home in Historic Gretna&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;h2 class="descriptive_title"&gt;Single Family, Shotgun - Gretna, LA&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt; Looking for something special in the City of Gretna? This is it. 10 foot ceilings throughout give an open feel to the entire home. The side hall entry grabs your attention as soon as you open the front door, displaying the gorgeous scored and stained concrete floors that tie every room together. Special touches like crown moldings, 4"baseboards, recessed and pendant lighting add a little luxury to your life. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#160;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;span&gt;The open kitchen/dining/living area makes entertaining a breeze and a side door to the patio gives you room to spread the party right into the fenced yard. Beautiful granite kitchen counters meld right into the wraparound breakfast&#8230; &lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="hidden"&gt; bar and the walk in pantry provides plenty of storage space in addition to the cherry finished cabinets. Under cabinet lighting brightens up the work space, while windows galore let the sun shine in. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#160;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="hidden"&gt;The master suite is located at the rear of the house, giving you all of the privacy you could hope for along with french doors leading to the back yard. Custom finished walk in closet, garden tub and separate shower finish out the perfect place to lay your head at the end of a long day. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>4242 Ames Blvd, Marrero LA 70072 | New Orleans West Bank Home for Sale</title>
      <description>&lt;b&gt;Immaculate Marrero Home&lt;/b&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Beautifully maintained and in immaculate condition, this lovely Marrero home is on the market for the first time since it was built in 2001. &#160;Located only 10 minutes from West Jefferson Medical Center, 20 minutes from downtown New Orleans and 30 minutes to NAS JRB New Orleans, commute times are a breeze.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;The gleaming hardwood floors in the living room are gorgeous, but there's so much more to see...trey ceiling, lighted display niche, recessed lighting, an open floor plan and plenty of natural light streaming through the energy efficient windows. &#160;Rounding out the living area is a dining space, complete with brand new light fixture and an open kitchen featuring a gas range/oven, disposal, dishwasher and microwave.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#160;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Separate from the other 2 spacious bedrooms, the master suite also boasts a massive trey ceiling along with a private, full bathroom with garden tub, walk in closet and upgraded fixtures and finishes.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&#160;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The extras&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;The home owner is offering a one year home warranty, a transferrable termite contract and is willing to allow the current flood policy to be assumed. &#160;Located in an "X" flood zone, premiums are currently only $365 per year.&lt;/div&gt;

      <title>Expanded Bike Path Coming to Algiers LA in 2012</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Have you ever walked or ridden along the &lt;a href="http://westbankliving.com/around-town/rolling-along-river-bicycling-on-west-bank/" title="Rolling Along the River | Bicycling on the West Bank"&gt;bike path&lt;/a&gt; that runs from Algiers to Gretna?&#160;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It's a great ride, with a spectacular view of the city and the skyline serving as a backdrop to your exercise program.&#160; Plenty of people would love to be able to continue their ride into lower Algiers, but haven't been able to do so.&#160; That's all changing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title="Algiers Bike Path" class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-18976" src="http://westbankliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/Test-pics-013-620x413.jpg" height="413" alt="Algiers Bike Path, view of CCC from Ferry Landing" width="620"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bids will be taken shortly for the planned extension of the bike and walking path in &lt;a href="http://westbankliving.com/algiers-la/" title="Algiers LA"&gt;Algiers&lt;/a&gt;.&#160; With construction expected to begin this spring and be completed before the end of 2012, the path that currently runs from the &lt;a href="http://westbankliving.com/gretna-la/" title="Gretna LA"&gt;Gretna&lt;/a&gt; ferry landing to the Algiers ferry landing will be extended all the way to the Chalmette ferry landing on the West Bank.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Plans include benches, water fountains, places for people to clean up after their pets and historic markers that share some of the history of Algiers.&#160; There is already a shell path on the top of the levee, but the addition of a 10 foot path and several access ramps along the route will make your walk, run or ride even more enjoyable.&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Additionally, the section of the levee that was closed to restrict access to the Naval Base is now open and will be included in the path construction.&#160; Just that one change makes the entire path more appealing since it no longer dead ends into a restricted area, which forced people off of the levee and around the base.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I can't wait to see the new improvements as they are completed!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.nola.com/politics/index.ssf/2011/12/both_algiers_bike_path_phases.html" title="Both Algiers Bike Path Phases Will Be Completed"&gt;Recent article about the bike path at nola.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>RIP Clint Miller ~ Donations</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Can I just say that I'm pissed about losing Clint?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I'm pissed that he won't ever get to hold his grandchild.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I'm pissed that he won't get to walk his daughter down the aisle.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I'm pissed that his boys have to grow up without a dad.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I'm pissed that his wife is left to be a single mother.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All of you guys out there need to check yourselves regularly. &#160;Don't let ignorance cause this to happen again. &#160;In the meantime, during this season of giving, please remember the Miller family and offer them whatever help you can.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;#weloveclint&#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;Via &lt;b&gt;&lt;a href="http://activerain.com/blogsview/2644116/rip-clint-miller-donations"&gt;Mimi Foster -  Colorado Springs Realtor (EPIC Real Estate Group Colorado Springs Real Estate)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;:&lt;br&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;

      <title>610 Stompers Performing in Macy's Day Parade...Wait Until They See These Guys!</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If there is one thing about New Orleans that people may not get, it's that we embrace the eccentric, the different, the unique&lt;/strong&gt;. &#160;If you aren't from here, your normal and our normal are two entirely different animals - probably not even in the same species. &#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I know that many of the big cities have marching groups that parade on St. Patrick's Day (or whenever people who don't have Mardi Gras parade) but here we have groups that march for anything and everything&lt;/strong&gt;. &#160;Lundi Gras, Mardi Gras, St. Patrick's Day, Irish-Italian parades, Christmas parades and pretty much any other time we feel like it. &#160;And we have some of those traditional groups that walk the parade route, handing out flowers and kisses along the way. &#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;But that's not nearly as much fun as when you find a group of guys that not only don't take themselves seriously, but have turned the entire idea of a marching group/dance team upside down.&lt;/strong&gt; &#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Enter the&#160;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.610stompers.com/about/" title="All about the 610 Stompers"&gt;610 Stompers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;From the headbands to the cheesy red jackets to the spray painted gold tennis shoes and the motto of "Ordinary Men with Extraordinary Moves", you can't watch them and not have a good time. &#160;They have performed at Hornets games, Saints games, in multiple parades and are the epitome of why our town will always be just a little on the fringe of normal ;)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The 610 Stompers will be participating in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade &lt;em&gt;(is it really a parade without throws?)&lt;/em&gt; and I'm not sure New York is going to know what hit them.&lt;/strong&gt; &#160;Locally, watch for them between 11:20 and 11:30 am CST. &#160;You can do the math to figure out when they will be on your area, but until then, check out one of the most unique groups to come out of New Orleans in years.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Shop Local on Small Business Saturday, November 26th, 2011</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;While planning your holiday shopping this year, I'd like to encourage you to spend your dollars with locally owned small businesses who rely on our support to keep their doors open as they provide not just goods and services, but jobs and tax dollars that benefit us directly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title="New Orleans LA" src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/8/1/5/4/2/ar132192396124518.JPG" height="263" alt="New Orleans" width="350"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;November 26, 2011 marks the second annual Small Business Saturday&lt;/strong&gt; - a day we should all come together and support our local businesses by keeping our shopping dollars here in our own community. &#160;Although started by the folks at American Express, it truly has little to do with a credit card company and loads to do with how we can each have a positive impact on our local economy while doing the shopping that we all need to get done at this time of year.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You are welcome to join the &lt;a href="https://www.facebook.com/SmallBusinessSaturday" title="Small Business Saturday on Facebook"&gt;Amex Facebook page for Small Business Saturday&lt;/a&gt;, but the true focus needs to be on making the effort to help our friends and neighbors that own local businesses...whether it's an art gallery, a small home based craft business or even grabbing a gift certificate to a West Bank restaurant, we can all find ways to keep our holiday budget dollars right here in our own community.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Need a place to start? &#160;Visit &lt;a href="http://staylocal.org" title="StayLocal!"&gt;StayLocal!&lt;/a&gt; for a list of businesses that are owned by Louisiana residents.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Do you have a small business in the New Orleans area?&lt;/strong&gt; &#160;Feel free to leave your information in the comments so all of our readers will know about you!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>It's Not a Car - Some Home Buying Advice is Just Wrong</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I clipped this from the Times-Picayune because I wanted to be sure home buyers realize that not all of this is true (or it shouldn't be, anyway). &#160;While the advice might be really relevant to buying a car, some of it misses the mark when it comes to home buying.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title="tp article on home buying" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-17950" src="http://westbankliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/tp-article-on-home-buying.jpeg" height="342" alt="" width="603"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Know the home-court advantage:&lt;/strong&gt;&#160; While we have definitely helped buy and sell more houses than the average person, I can assure you that we do not know what you are thinking, nor have we taken any classes to read you and sell you.&#160; If you are working with a professional agent, you shouldn't have to be on guard.&#160; You should know, instead, that &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://westbankliving.com/blog/good-buyers-agent-doesnt-sell-house/" title="A Good Buyer&amp;amp;rsquo;s Agent Doesn&amp;amp;rsquo;t Sell You a House"&gt;a good agent doesn't sell you a house.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Watch for the qualifying questions&lt;/strong&gt;:&#160; We don't need to look for your wedding ring or ask questions about how much you can afford, because a prepared buyer has already taken &lt;a href="http://westbankliving.com/blog/home-buying-tips-what-you-need-to-apply-and-get-approved-for-an-fha-loan/" title="Home Buying Tips | What You Need To Apply and Get Approved For An FHA Loan"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;the steps to be pre-qualified for a mortgage&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&#160; This isn't a car.&#160; It's likely the largest single purchase you will ever make and the people (and banks) selling homes will not be willing to even start negotiating with you until they are sure you are qualified and not wasting their time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hit the streets:&lt;/strong&gt;&#160; There are rules that agents and brokers must follow when a property is no longer available and that includes updating the status within 72 hours of a home going under contract, being sold or leased or even being taken off of the market.&#160; That said, there will always be a delay in updating some third party sites such as Trulia or Zillow, since they don't get listing information directly from the MLS.&#160; If you find that a particular site is always out of date, you may want to do a little digging and find a more up to date &lt;a href="http://westbankliving.com/home-values/" title="Find New Orleans homes for sales"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;local site for your home search&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Put time on your side:&lt;/strong&gt;&#160; "When the agent sends you information...act blase.&#160; Being too eager tips your hand"&#160; Your agent is absolutely the one person that you should inform that you are eager.&#160; It's the seller that you don't want to tip your hand to and your agent is there to protect you from doing just that.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Don't get emotional:&lt;/strong&gt;&#160; This actually is pretty good advice, because there certainly are things that can derail a home purchase (inspections, appraisal).&#160; Except that &lt;em&gt;buying a home is almost always emotional&lt;/em&gt;.&#160; We tell buyers that when they walk into the house that should be their home, they will know it.&#160; Of all of the houses I've ever lived in, each one whispered "buy me" as I walked through.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I feel sorry for the person who wrote this piece, because she obviously didn't feel like her REALTOR&#174; was on her side during her home purchase.&#160; If you have any of those same concerns about your agent, it might be time to find a new one.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <title>Holiday Home Selling Tips</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Although there are fewer buyers actively looking for new homes between Thanksgiving and Christmas each year, it's important to remember that the key word here is fewer.&#160; &lt;strong&gt;That doesn't mean that no one is looking!&lt;/strong&gt;&#160; In fact, buyers who are searching for a home during the traditional "slow" time are typically very motivated.&#160; If they are involved in a relocation to the West Bank, you can bet that the holiday season doesn't put their home search on the back burner.&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You have a wonderful opportunity to show your home at its sparkling best when decorated for the season...provided you follow a few tips:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img title="Home selling tips for the holidays" src="http://westbankliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/156224-m-thumb.jpg" height="240" alt="Home selling during the holidays" width="160"&gt; Subtle decorations are the most welcoming &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I know that you are proud of your collection of inflatable lawn decorations that took you years to amass.&#160; But making your front yard look like the display area of the local discount store is not the way to entice buyers to the front door.&#160; Santa, the reindeer, the elves and Frosty will all understand the extra year in storage, I promise.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Don't let your tree(s) take over the room(s)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I'll be the first to admit that I used to be a snob about my Christmas tree, so I bought two of them every year.&#160; One for me, with all of my lovely, coordinated ornaments and other decorations.&#160; And one for the kids, for all of that tacky junk they insist on hanging on the tree and then smothering in tinsel.&#160; As the kids have grown, we've reached a compromise with one tree, but tinsel is still not allowed.&#160; When decorating your tree, keep in mind that less is more.&#160; Neatly stacked presents with matching bows might seem over the top to you, but will make a really good impression on a buyer!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fresh seasonal flowers or plants make a space more inviting&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Poinsettias, fresh garlands and pine cones - all of these things give just the right touch.&#160; That blinking wreath that plays O Christmas Tree when anyone approaches the front door does not.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Scents of the season&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The aroma of the holidays can fill your house with just a little cider warming on the stove.&#160; Trust me, buyers prefer the smell of cinnamon to that of the cat box (which should be discreetly tucked away in a spot that the cat knows about).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sounds of the season&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Soft, seasonal background music can set the stage for a showing.&#160; Please remove Grandma and the drunken reindeer from the CD player immediately.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lighting&lt;img title="Home selling tips for the holidays" src="http://westbankliving.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/179415-l-thumb.jpg" height="142" alt="Home Selling Don'ts for the holidays" width="240"&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I saved this for last because it's where most faux pas occur.&#160; Neatly hung lights along the house are attractive and festive.&#160; But, just as the inflatables have to spend another year in storage, so does the giant blinking star for the roof.&#160; Those crazy blinking lights that spell out Merry Christmas to the satellites?&#160; Out.&#160; I'll even go out on a limb here and say that I'm pretty sure that the astronauts are not looking for their next home from space.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Remember, decorations should serve to enhance the beauty of your home - not distract potential buyers from actually seeing it!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&#160;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

      <guid>http://westbanklivingteam.com/post/2594198/why-is-it-so-hard-to-find-new-orleans-homes-for-sale-</guid>
      <title>Why Is It So Hard to Find New Orleans Homes for Sale?</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;One of my pet peeves with the New Orleans MLS&lt;em&gt; (Multiple Listing Service)&lt;/em&gt; is that they have not kept up with the times&lt;/strong&gt; in regards to how they share real estate listings with the agents that subscribe to the service &lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;or&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&#160;&lt;/strong&gt;with the home buying and selling public.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title="Finding a home in New Orleans" src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/6/5/2/2/6/ar13207784662256.jpg" height="146" alt="Finding a New Orleans home" width="205"&gt;There are literally hundreds and hundreds of online sites that buyers can go to find lists of homes for sale. &#160;Realtor.com, Trulia, Zillow, Yahoo!...heck, even just a google search will turn up page after page of national sites for your perusal in addition to a large number of local agent websites. &#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The problem from a home buyer and seller perspective is that the MLS doesn't allow every member agent to display every listing on their site, leading to confusion about what properties are actually for sale.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Your favorite home search might be on Trulia or Zillow, but did you know that &lt;strong&gt;at least one of the major brokerages in New Orleans doesn't post their listings on either of those sites?&lt;/strong&gt; &#160; Add in the boutique brokers who don't have much of an internet presence, and if you land on one of those sites your list of homes adds up to something less than 100% of the active listings.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Realtor.com only has the listings of those brokerages that are members of the National Association of Realtors. &#160;Although I'll grant that it's the majority of homes for sale, it's still not everything that's available.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;So, why can't you find all of the listings on all of the sites?&lt;/strong&gt; &#160;Because real estate brokerages in New Orleans operate under a rule that forces the home buyer to their broker owned sites if they want to search for every active listing in the MLS.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What's wrong with the brokers controlling access to the information?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you have spent the time researching New Orleans REALTORS&#174; and finally found an agent that you connect with and want to work with, you are forced to leave that warm and fuzzy place when you are booted to the brokerage site for home searches&lt;/strong&gt;. &#160;I don't know about you, but I get a little nervous when new windows start opening on my laptop because I clicked a link. &#160;Personally, if I decide to search on a particular site, I want to stay there - not be cyber directed to someplace else because of an antiquated and outdated rule that has absolutely nothing to do with serving me - the consumer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Some brokerages have the habit of gathering your contact information and then collecting a substantial referral fee to let the agent you want to work with have access to you.&lt;/strong&gt; &#160;Now, it's not quite as brusque as that sounds, but the bottom line is that it's a more than a little self serving for brokers to demand that all home searches be done on their sites AND to then take advantage of that rule to make more money. &#160;I know...you couldn't give a rat's behind how much your agent makes when you buy or sell a home. &#160;But, if they are doing the same amount of work for you that they are doing for someone that they don't have to pay a referral fee for, who do you think is going to get priority if there is a conflict with time or resources? If you are selling your home, one of the main goals of your agent is to get you the maximum amount of exposure to potential buyers. &#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;When brokers limit the display of all listings to broker owned sites instead of to the sites of every agent in the metro area, they are also limiting your home's ability to be found by buyers.&lt;/strong&gt; &#160;With so many buyers using the internet as their primary home search tool, shouldn't you be able to expect that your listing will be in as many places as possible?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;From an agent's perspective&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As a listing agent, I promise my sellers that I can bring the eyeballs and get their home included in the search results. &#160;I want my listings to be on as many sites as I can get them on, whether it's mine, another agent's or a third party real estate site. &#160;The current rules limit how agents are allowed to market a home. &#160;I've been actively working with a group to push the MLS board to change this rule but, sadly, we have not yet been successful. &#160;It's frustrating, because this is NOT the industry standard. &#160;If you've come from an area where open sharing is the norm, you will probably waste time figuring out that you can't find every listing everywhere.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;From a consumer's perspective&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I read this comment on a site one day and it really hit home as to why the current system is broken:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;em&gt;Realtors are pretty far behind the curve in terms of utilizing the internet, they post lousy photos, and do not provide enough information and make it difficult to quickly gather information. Generally most realtors appear to approach internet marketing as though they have something to hide instead of having something to show. Transparency in advertising builds trust with the public....&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;I have been looking for property to purchase, and am annoyed by the lack of complete information on New Orleans realtors websites, and the lousy photos, so I am using this story as an opportunity to vent, but I also know that all of the realtors in New Orleans will be reading this story, and I am hoping that they will read this post and think about what I am writing and improve their websites. Whoever does will find that they have more internet traffic and more business.&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The bottom line is that the consumer should always come first.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Whether it's a buyer searching for a home or a seller who wants to be found during that search, &lt;strong&gt;every agent and broker has a duty to their client to put their needs first&lt;/strong&gt;. &#160;Until this rule is changed, none of us is truly doing that. &#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;
&lt;a href="http://westbankliving.com/home-search/" title="Homes for sale in New Orleans"&gt;Homes for sale in New Orleans&lt;/a&gt; &lt;em&gt;(please don't freak out when a new window opens)&lt;/em&gt;

      <title>New Orleans Seeking Resident Opinions</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The City of New Orleans wants you.&lt;/strong&gt;&#160; Well, your opinion anyway.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title="New Orleans LA" src="http://activerain.com/image_store/uploads/4/6/7/0/8/ar132054574880764.JPG" height="401" alt="New Orleans Louisiana" width="600"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Most of us have had that experience of poor customer service from a city employee.&#160; Or a terminal wait on hold only to be disconnected.&#160; Or getting the run around on who is responsible for a problem in our neighborhood.&#160; Recently, the city added a section to their website asking for suggestions from residents on how we can make our city better.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;From Mayor Landrieu:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;em&gt;We all know that the City needs to fundamentally change how we do business&lt;/em&gt; &#8211; we need to find strategies and initiatives that harness our ability to continually improve and innovate in government.&#160; We need your ideas to cut the red tape, waste and abuse.&#160;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;We want to hear directly from you, the customer, about what works and what doesn&#8217;t. &lt;a href="http://www.nola.gov/cutredtape#form_D29F7FD445804058BD115D44B1821B36"&gt;Please click here to share your ideas.&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;In order begin this process, we enlisted the help of David Osborne and the Public Strategies Group.&#160; David Osborne is probably the best expert in the country in helping governments of all shapes and sizes find strategies that unleash their ability to become more efficient and entrepreneurial. PSG&#8217;s report takes a hard and honest look at many of the major challenges we face&#8212;challenges like red tape, woeful IT systems, and a legacy of poor management that cripple our ability to reach our potential.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;It then identifies an agenda of ten strategies designed to fundamentally transform how the City of New Orleans does business...&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.nola.gov/cutredtape" title="Cut Red Tape in New Orleans"&gt;Give your opinion on how to cut red tape in New Orleans&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; and let's all work together to make New Orleans better than ever.&lt;/p&gt;
