What to know about top real estate agents in Louisiana

Top Louisiana real estate agents combine deep, local expertise with higher-than-average performance. Here’s what that looks like in Louisiana. 

General 

  • High transaction volume: Does more than 4 sales per year (local median)
  • Well established: At least 3–5+ years of experience in the local market
  • Good reputation: High total review count and average ratings

Sellers

  • Pricing expertise: Few-to-no price drops 
  • High sale-to-list ratios: Typically sells near or above list price (median sale-to-list in Louisiana is 98%)
  • Strong marketing strategy: Beautiful photos, compelling listing descriptions, maximum visibility
  • Faster-than-average sales: Gets homes under contract quickly (median sale timeline in Louisiana is 75 days)

Buyers

  • Strong negotiator: The best buyer’s agents in Louisiana often save 5-10% off list price
  • Local expertise: Know neighborhoods, schools, amenities, regulations
  • Responsive and accessible: Reviews consistently call out these specific traits

Most likely, yes. The vast majority of home sellers in Louisiana will get the best outcome and most money selling with a top local real estate agent. That said, it really depends on your goals.

Consider listing with a Louisiana realtor if:

  • You're aiming for top dollar or need help navigating pricing and offers
  • You want someone to handle the full process—marketing, showings, negotiation, paperwork
  • Your property is typical for the area and priced at or above $200,000

Consider alternatives if:

  • You want a faster sale and are open to a cash offer from a cash home buyer or iBuyer
  • You’re cost-conscious and want to save on commission with a discount real estate broker
  • You want to avoid realtor commission altogether and are comfortable trying FSBO (for sale by owner), knowing that FSBO sales usually net less and require a lot of work.

In Louisiana, the average real estate commission is about 5.65%, while the national average is (5.57%).

  • Typically, this gets split between the listing and buyer’s agents (2.83% and 2.82%, respectively).
  • Rates are negotiable and may be lower for higher-priced homes or repeat clients.
  • Following the NAR settlement, buyers may need to negotiate their agent's fee directly.

Sell with a top agent and save

With Clever, sellers can list with a top local agent for just 1.5% (or $3,000 flat) — up to 50% less than the typical rate in Louisiana.

If a traditional agent isn’t the right fit, here are some Louisiana alternatives:

Cash buyer services

  • Get fast, no-obligation offers from investors, iBuyers, and bridge loan providers.
  • Ideal for distressed homes, tight timelines, or sellers prioritizing speed over top price.

Discount brokerages

  • Offer lower commissions (often 1–2%) while still providing MLS access and support.
  • Good option if you want to save but still prefer professional help.

Flat-Fee MLS (FFMLS)

  • Pay a one-time fee to list your home on the MLS.
  • You'll handle pricing, showings, and negotiation yourself — best for experienced sellers.

For Sale By Owner (FSBO)

  • No agent involvement, no commission—but you’ll do everything yourself.
  • FSBO homes typically sell for less, so weigh potential savings vs. final sale price.

Pro tip: Even if you go non-traditional, consider services like Clever or local offer platforms — they help you compare your options and connect with agents or investors offering discounts, fast offers, or both.

Louisiana is currently a buyer's market, due to fewer active homebuyers and more homes available for sale.

  • The market has an average of 9.9 months of supply, meaning it would take about that long for all available homes to sell if no new listings were added. There were 17,852 homes for sale in LA in the last month. Sellers added 626 new listings, and 173 home sales closed in that time.
  • On average, properties spend 75 days on the market, and it takes 56 days for a home to go under contract.

Homes in Louisiana are selling for less on average compared to the previous month. Fewer sellers reduced their listing price this month compared to last month.

  • 776 homes dropped in price this month. That's around 4% of all homes on the market, compared to the 5.51% of listings that lowered prices the month before.
  • The median home in Louisiana ultimately sells for $257,000 – 1.5% less than its original list price.
