- Calculating prorated property taxes, HOA dues, and any utility bonds

- Recording with the parish and delivering the recorded act of sale post-closing
See Your Net Proceeds Before You List
Our Closing Cost Calculator has a seller view that subtracts payoff, prorations, commissions, and seller-side fees from your contract price — so you know your walk-away number before signing anything.
Stuck on Market? Consider Bond for Deed.
Bond for Deed is a Louisiana-specific installment sale that opens your listing to buyers who can't qualify for a traditional mortgage — often closing in 14–30 days. You keep legal title until the buyer pays off; our sister company Southern Loan Servicing handles the payments.
