Every question i had was answered in a timely manner and broken down enough for me to understand what was going on during the whole process. I have already passed on his info to several people looking to buy. I will absolutely go through him again if I'm in the position to buy again.”
“Steve Westbrook did an amazing job! This was a very stressful process with EXTREMELY difficult sellers.. Steve took the lead and navigated the entire situation with a level of professionalism that should be studied to teach others. Between closing dates being moved numerous times, getting contractors involved to be able to close, and everything else that’s too much to type he and his team kept the ball rolling and got us across the finish line. I can’t thank him enough for all of his help and expertise. If you’re looking to buy he is the guy you want on your team. Thanks again Steve!”
“Ashton is relentless in providing the best deal for her clients! She worked with me endlessly, through tears and through laughter in getting my perfect house.

“Peggy was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process of selling my home. My situation was definitely not a simple one, but she stayed patient, professional, and on top of everything from beginning to end. She kept me informed through inspections, repairs, the appraisal, title issues, and all the little things that came up along the way. Anytime I had a question or needed something handled, Peggy was quick to respond and helped keep everything moving forward. What I appreciated most was knowing that I had someone in my corner who genuinely cared about getting this across the finish line. She made a stressful situation much easier to deal with, and I couldn’t have asked for a better realtor. I would absolutely recommend Peggy to anyone looking to buy or sell a home.

“If you’re looking for a real estate agent who truly goes above and beyond, I can’t recommend Stephanie highly enough. She helped us through two very different transactions, and her expertise made an incredible difference in both. When we sold an inherited property, Stephanie provided excellent guidance on which repairs and improvements would deliver the greatest return, helping us maximize the home’s value while avoiding unnecessary expenses. Her advice throughout the entire process was thoughtful, practical, and always in our best interest. She also helped us purchase our forever home, which was an older foreclosure with its share of challenges. The transaction required extensive negotiations, patience, and creative problem-solving, and Stephanie handled every obstacle with professionalism and determination. Her network of trusted contractors, loan officers, title professionals, and other industry contacts made what could have been a stressful experience feel organized and seamless. Stephanie is knowledgeable, responsive, honest, and genuinely invested in her clients’ success. We always felt that she was advocating for us every step of the way.

“I cannot recommend Aimee Curole (Amay) at 23 Realty enough! We first met Aimee as a Zillow lead back in 2020, and after searching for the perfect home for years, we finally closed on a beautiful house in Kenner, LA. Throughout the entire process, Aimee worked with us with incredible patience. We looked at dozens of homes together, but she never pressured us to settle. She truly represented us as if she were the one buying the house. Our new home is stunning—completely updated with new windows, stainless steel appliances, and gorgeous new floors. During the inspection period, Aimee’s expertise as a Broker/Owner really shined. She successfully negotiated a brand-new HVAC system into our deal, saving us thousands! If you are looking for the best real estate agent in Kenner or the Greater New Orleans area, call Aimee. She even has a network of local professionals for everything house-related you could possibly need. She did an outstanding job and made our dream of homeownership a reality!”
