Congratulations!
You have just found Louisiana's best kept secret for buying and selling real estate in Louisiana.
What if, for a one-time fee, you could list your home with services so both agents and prospective buyers could find it? What if you determined what you paid a buyer's agent and then only had to pay that commission if the buyer was brought by an agent? What if you had the freedom to pay no commission to a buyer's agent if your buyer found you on their own? What if you had an arsenal of more than 80 cutting-edge marketing techniques that you could choose a la carte? At Hager Realty of Louisiana, this is how we do business. And it's catching on.
Hager Realty is not just another Louisiana real estate company. Our hybrid approach to selling homes combines the best of Discount Brokerages and Full Commission Agents with the freedom of a for sale by owner. At Hager Realty, we realize that most buyers do all of their home searching on-line, then jump in their cars to see the houses they like. After finding a house they like, they usually call the agent to schedule a showing and make an offer.
You save anywhere from 3.5% to 5.5% of your sales price compared to that of a full priced agent. That 3.5% to 5.5% of your sales price can make the difference in you being able to successfully accept an offer. 3 years and 3000 properties later, our homeowners nationwide have saved over 225 million dollars in listing fees with over 2200 properties sold. Now we are in your area! You now have the choice to keep your money in your pocket where it belongs. You don't have to sacrifice service, cost, or the MLS when selling your property.
We know it's different. And takes a little getting used to, which is why we encourage you to take a few moments to browse our site. As you do so, jot down any questions you might have, then give us a call at 225-590-3901 or email us. We think we have a better way. And once you take the time to learn what we're all about, we think you'll agree.

Buying A Home
Everyone knows a real estate agent. You may know a part time agent who occasionally works in real estate, sells homes to family or works in real estate part time while they take care of their children or do another job. While it may seem like a good idea or a charitable gesture to use your friend or family member to buy your new home, not using an expert can be financially hazardous.
Our buyers save money on financing, immediate out of pocket closing costs and the sales price.
Selling A Home
People ask us, "What is the perfect selling strategy to market my home?" Our answer, "Cover all of your bases." That means getting into the multiple listing services, advertise as a "For Sale by Owner," and most importantly, keep your costs down so that when an offer comes in, you can actually sell the home without losing your profit by paying high commissions.
Our plan helps you do just that.
