Why Invest in a New Orleans STR?

New Orleans isn’t just a place people visit—it’s a place they return to, again and again. From the electrifying energy of Mardi Gras to the soulful rhythms of Jazz Fest, the city is alive year-round. For investors, that means one thing: demand never slows down.

Owning a short-term rental here isn’t just about generating income—it’s about owning a piece of a city people fall in love with. Whether your goal is passive income, a cash-flowing investment, or simply being part of New Orleans’ magic, the right property in the right location can be a game-changer.

STR Investing: The Reality

The opportunities are huge, but so are the challenges. From navigating city regulations to analyzing market potential, STR ownership in New Orleans takes more than just buying a property—it takes strategy.

That’s where I come in. I’m Kayla Springer, a licensed Realtor specializing in STR and investment properties. I help buyers, sellers, and investors simplify the process, avoid costly mistakes, and maximize returns.

Here’s how I support my clients:

STR Property Search & Acquisition

Not every property qualifies for an STR. I help you find homes that:

  • Meet zoning and permit requirements

  • Align with your financial goals

  • Offer long-term stability and strong income potential

Whether it’s your first Airbnb or your next portfolio property, I’ll make the search strategic—not stressful.

STR Regulations & Permit Guidance

The rules change often. I stay on top of them so you don’t have to. Together, we’ll determine:

  • Which permit type applies to your property

  • What requirements you must meet

  • How zoning and caps affect your options

This saves you time, money, and frustration.

Investment & Market Analysis

Numbers tell the real story. I provide insights on:

  • Occupancy trends by neighborhood

  • Seasonal income patterns

  • Long-term appreciation and resale value

So you know before you buy if the deal makes sense.

Selling an STR Property

Selling an STR is different from selling a residence. I market your property as an income-producing asset, emphasizing permit status, performance history, and future potential to attract serious buyers and premium offers.

End-to-End Support

From the first property tour to handing over the keys, I’m there. I offer hands-on, personalized support that makes every step clear and seamless—so you feel confident, informed, and in control.

Why Work With Me

New Orleans is unlike any other market—and STRs are unlike any other type of property. You need more than a Realtor. You need a partner who understands the rules, the numbers, and the strategy.
