About

Kara Breithaupt "Bright-Hop" has appeared on magazine covers and in articles + voted the Best Realtor in New Orleans. There is a reason! She is responsive, creative and aggressive in meeting her clients' needs while exceeding their expectations.

She attended the University of San Francisco on a soccer scholarship and was working in corporate real estate in San Francisco when the economy crashed. She used that excuse to traipse around the world for three and a half years primarily exploring Central and South America, India and New Zealand. Graduate school brought her to New Orleans, where she received an MFA in Creative Writing and then circled back around to real estate.

As the owner of Snap Realty and a Broker with 16+ years as a licensed Realtor, she has extensive knowledge and experience coupled with online marketing offerings that are rare to find. Kara has rave reviews in making the deal happen while benefiting her clients in every way.

Ratings & Reviews

Sarah & Dan

After extensive research on local real estate agents I decided to go with Kara Breithaupt. She seemed to have good reviews and quick turnover on her listings. We have had such a successful experience with her that we have hired her to sell 3 properties. All of them went quickly without any hassles. If there was a problem Kara and her team got right on it and always had a solution. [If you've ever sold a property you know what I mean] Everyone at Snap was lovely. We can not speak highly enough about this incredible company. Look no further!

Kara's work on our sale was wonderful. We are out-of-state owners and were not able to travel to New Orleans to oversee sale of our property. Kara was able to market the property, manage the negotiation process, reach into her extensive resource list for needed contractors and repair folks, and get a complicated deal done. Kara was very accessible which was crucial given our physical distance from the process. We highly recommend Kara!

I had the pleasure of working with Kara during my recent home buying experience, and I can confidently say that she is the epitome of excellence in the real estate industry. From the moment we met, Kara's professionalism and dedication were apparent.

Kara's deep knowledge of the New Orleans housing market was evident in every conversation we had. She provided insightful information about different neighborhoods, property values, and market trends, allowing me to make well-informed decisions. What stood out to me the most was her genuine concern for finding the right home for me, rather than just making a sale.

Kara is also go getter agent. She was incredibly responsive and made sure to check in consistently with clear and concise updates. The seller of the property I purchased was playing hardball, and that didn't phase her at all. She took the time to go over all the options in every decisions I had to make. I'll definitely work with her again.

The Presto's

We couldn’t have found a better real estate agent than Kara; Kara was amazing from start to finish. It took us a long time to find our perfect home and Kara had incredible patience during the process, listening closely to us to find that match. Kara has a wealth of knowledge about the neighborhoods, the historical districts’ requirements, insurance agencies, and inspectors. After finding our home and carefully negotiating a contract, Kara gave us detailed information in order to contact local utilities and local tradespeople to get the house move-in ready. She also collects all of the information from the sale, which could easily get lost in email boxes, into organized files. She is kind, detail-oriented, and extremely responsive. She is proactive, takes initiative, and seems to know everyone. Kara goes above and beyond for her clients. We were lucky to be able to work with her.
