Please carefully read the instructions and disclosure in the post below.

The City of New Orleans has filed a foreclosure action in the Orleans Parish Civil District Court against the properties listed below.

You can access sales by going to the Civil Sheriff’s website HERE.

PLEASE FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS when you visit the Sheriff’s website:

Click on the “Real Estate Sales” link. Then use the drop down menu to pick a date and look through the list of sales. Any property that says “City of New Orleans v. ______” is a sheriff’s sale. You can cross reference that property with the list below.

Check this page again — we’ll add links to photos of the houses but we didn’t want to hesitate on posting the addresses. Further, not all of the photos have been posted on the Sheriff’s website yet and not all dates have been set. Since many of these houses have previously appeared on a “demolition list,” we have photos on our Flickr site. DO YOUR OWN SITE VISIT to verify the condition of a property as some of our photos may be out of date.

IF YOU BUY A PROPERTY WITH A HOUSE ON THE LOT, the work that you do to the house after purchase might be subject to the jurisdiction of the HDLC. All houses within local historic districts are subject to local review. Renovations on houses within HDLC’s districts are likely subject to design review. If you are considering purchasing a property on this list and are considering demolition as an option, know that demolitions are subject to HDLC or NCDC review for older neighborhoods. Ask if you aren’t sure!

NOTE: We will NOT post updates on the sale status, so please cross-reference this list with the Sheriff’s website HERE to confirm that a particular sale is moving forward. If a property owner pays the liens, then the sale will be stopped.
