Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Inventory in Freret has expanded relative to demand in this rolling three-month view, with 16 active listings but only 2 homes sold and 2 pending. Months of supply has surged to 16, far above the broader New Orleans level of 7.3 months, reinforcing its current status as a buyer’s market.
Pricing, however, has moved upward over the past year, with the typical home value up more than a third and the median list price rising at a similar pace. Even with those gains, the average sale-to-list ratio sits at about 93 percent and no recent sales closed above asking, showing buyers have room to negotiate.
Conditions have also shifted quickly on timing, as the median days on market dropped to just 17 from much longer marketing periods seen in prior quarters, while new listings more than doubled year over year. With homes both pricing higher and selling faster amid abundant supply, Agent Pronto can connect buyers and sellers with an agent who understands how to navigate this unusual mix of leverage and opportunity.
Freret offers residents a vibrant, walkable community with locally owned cafes, shops, parks, and a welcoming sense of neighborhood pride.

“We knew Mary was a knowledgeable and top listing agent in New Orleans/ Metairie area and would help us to sell our house quickly. She did! She also gave good guidance on what was needed to get the house ready to sell and was great to work with!”
“Ryan stuck with me and kept me going even when things got stressful through closing. When I wanted to back out, he helped keep going because we had come so far already. Definitely would recommend him. Loving the new house we found.”
“Made selling my home a stress free and great experience. I wouldn't use any other team of realtors. Stayed on top of the process until the day it was sold and took care of any inconveniences to get it done. Thanks again!”
“Kelley did a good job with the listing of our house and did a great job of listening to our concerns and answered all questions we had regarding the sale of our house. She conducted the sale process in a professional manner and was very knowledgeable of our area's real estate market. Kelley was available at all times of the day to assist us and the buyer's agent. We recommend Kelley Levy for your real estate needs.”
“Mark was amazing. He truly cared about getting our house sold in a difficult market, but he found the perfect buyer in a month after 6 mos with another realtor who did nothing. Mark was extremely knowledgeable about all areas of real estate and ALWAYS available to hear my rants and promptly respond to any issues. He is a good person, ethical and caring. We could not be any happier to have found him. I would highly recommend him.”
“Agent Pronto got me in touch with Patricia Halley Conaghan. She is, hands down, one of the best real estate agents around. I am in Oregon so it was long distance relationship. The property was no where ready to sell when I first listed. Many e-mails, phone calls, texts, and photos later we were able to get this property ready to sell. She lined up contractors and oversaw the work. It did not take long to sell with some creative financing. I couldn't be happier than I am with Patricia's work and support. She is AWESOME!!”
“Melanie Cook was very responsive and also answer any questions you may ask..She will walk you through every step of the way”
“Gina was very helpful throughout the process of preparing and selling my home. She provided honest and constructive advice and feedback with a great eye for detail. Her experience and knowledge of the current market was very helpful in pricing and negotiating during the initial phases and during offer negotiations. Even during the unknown expectations of the COVID 19 pandemic, Gina was very reassuring yet realistic. I would recommend Gina as a reliable, responsive agent.”
“Becky is the best! She is very knowledgeable and patient!! She helped us find the perfect home. Becky help us sell 2 of our homes (one was under contract in 4 days). Becky is amazing, and I will recommend to everyone!!”
“Josh was a very professional agent that was very helpful in the selling of my house. My house went on the market on a Friday afternoon and was under contract by Saturday night.”
