Before the year ends, do you want to buy a new home or refinance an existing one? It can be exciting to look for a new home, especially if you're a first-time homebuyer. It is also exciting to refinance your home for a better rate, renovate your existing home, pay down debt, or anything else. However, it can also feel overwhelming and nerve-wracking, especially the financial part and especially in a rapidly changing New Orleans real estate market.
