The first quarter sales in Gretna and Terrytown continued on the downward trend that the area has been experiencing for almost a year. Sellers should take note and be sure that their home is in the best possible condition to attract the largest number of buyers. I have watched the pending sales for several months and it appears that almost half of the contracts do not make it to closing, for one reason or another.
