Happy Holidays, Y’all!

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

It’s that time of year in New Orleans where no one is really working (except us, of course) but somehow everything feels in motion. City Hall is gearing up for a mayoral handoff, and Helena seems to be assembling a crack team of city officials, the kind of bench that could maybe get the population moving in the right direction again.

And while inboxes are getting slower and days blur into a sequence of poorly timed holiday parties, gift-giving season doesn’t wait. So whether you’re spoiling your boss, confusing your crush, or tossing a lifeline to the cheapskate in your life, we’ve got you
covered. For the savvy investor in your circle? Scroll on—we saved the best for last.
