ZillowVERIFIEDBrandy did a great job in supporting my journey to purchase my first home. She was extremely knowledgeable in the areas and helped me pin point where to start my searches. Brandy took the time to understand what I was looking for in a house - open/spacious kitchen, renovated bathrooms, garage, etc. She worked closely with me for several months to tour at least a dozen homes and to see different styles in person. She would revise searches and send me more listings that fit my profile. Throughout the process, Brandy was very responsive. She helped answer any maintenance or pricing questions I had on the houses and the home I ended up purchasing. This included running comparisons on other nearby houses, reaching out to contractors, and getting more info from the seller(s). Brandy went above what other relators would do to ensure I was happy with my decision. She showed that she cares for her clients. I would definitely work with Brandy again for another purchase or sale.

ZillowVERIFIEDBrandy did an amazing job getting my house rented. It only had taken her two weeks to get the vacancy filled. Brandy works extremely hard and her results showed!

ZillowVERIFIEDBrandy did an amazing job in selling both my mom's property and my own. I have worked with Brandy both as my buyer's agent and a seller's agent for a few years. She has done an amazing job representing me in both cases. Brandy is very knowledgeable of the New Orleans and surrounding areas. She helped my mom and I throughout the entire process, and she was always available for questions and walking us through any issues that came up. I would highly recommend her.

ZillowVERIFIEDBrandy made us feel like she genuinely cared about our family. She accommodated our busy work schedules and fought for us to get the home we wanted.

ZillowVERIFIEDBrandy was incredible from beginning to end in helping us purchase our first house. From the moment we started working together she sent us incredible options, was knowledgeable about local neighborhoods and markets, and answered our inquiries with expectational speed and detail. She is also funny, smart, and a joy to be around. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

ZillowVERIFIEDBrandy went beyond the expectation of a realtor. She was proactive in scheduling inspections, responsive to text and emails no matter the times. The process from viewing the property to closing within 30 days was due to Brandy?s expertise.

ZillowVERIFIEDBrandy was a Godsend for us! After SIX months with another real estate agent, Brandy sold our house in FOUR days for full price!!! She was prompt and professional. She returned calls and answered emails quickly and efficiently. She is extremely knowledgeable; everything pretty much happened exactly the way she predicted, even when we didnt think it would. I am so glad that we found her and would vehemently recommend her to anyone looking for a real estate agent!

ZillowVERIFIEDAs a first time seller with a succession, Brandy was great to work with. She came in ready to start the process and get us and the house where we needed to be, which is sold. With her knowledge and experience, she answered all of our many questions and guided us to a successful close. Her honesty and professionalism made it easy to work with her and reassured us that we made the right choice.

ZillowVERIFIEDBrandy did an amazing job helping my husband and I find our first home together. She was very clear and responsive with the entire process. Brandy is friendly and kind, she goes the extra mile for her clients. The home buying process was new to my both my husband and I, we are so grateful for all of her help. I highly recommend her to anyone trying to buy a home or even looking for the right advice in the right direction.

ZillowVERIFIEDWould give Brandy six stars if I could. Never have I seen a Realtor so kind, responsive, patient, and effective! She really helped get the home ready with great pics and listing and found a buyer the same day we listed it. She is a blessing and will go far. Most pleasant real estate experience ever. She really takes the stress away.

ZillowVERIFIEDBrandy did an amazing job helping us buy our first home! She responded to our Zillow request promptly as we were able to see the home the next day. We appreciated her comments/concerns about the property during the showing and her first-time home buyer guidance. She quickly moved to make our offer and kept in close contact with us throughout the process. Her 20+ years of experience is apparent with her valuable advice, trusted contacts, and prompt negotiation efforts. We highly recommend Brandy as she has been exemplary in her work with us and all parties involved.

ZillowVERIFIEDThank you Brandy and Ryan Dufrene for helping me sell my unsellable house: You are ?? ?? ?? ?? ?? real estate professionals??My four-bedroom, two-bathroom brick ranch house (circa 1960) was a challenging sale, to put it mildly. It could have been on a special episode of "The Unsellables" titled "The Ultimate Unsellables." I only had enough of an inheritance to only partially renovate it and bring it up to code. My contractors did an excellent job renovating the kitchen, so it baffles me how they could have fumbled so badly with the bathrooms. (If you hire a contractor to renovate your house, ALWAYS demand a computer rendering of the finished product. NEVER settle for written lists of materials and tasks to be done with them. NEVER accept vague verbal assurances that everything's going to be great. See what the finished renovation is supposed to look like before any work begins, and you can see what the contractor overlooked!)As if the house didn't have enough issues, there is the matter of its location: The Great Dismal Toxic Swamp of New Orleans East. Soil subsidence and foundation problems are a perennial issue for older structures there. It's not far from the rotting corpse of the Six Flags Amusement Park, and a dumping ground for actual rotting corpses. It's also a dump for tires and burned out cars. The actual New Orleans dump is located there, as are way too many junkyards. There are seedy bars and motels, and the sketchy characters that frequent them. There were abandoned boarded-up dilapidated buildings well before Hurricane Katrina (and a few others since) devastated the area.New Orleans East has all the problems of living in New Orleans, with absolutely none of the benefits. You would never know it's Mardi Gras or Jazz Fest, or any other festival or a Saints game living out there. Everything good New Orleans has to offer is half hour drive away on Interstate-10 on a good day. The streets are not just in terrible condition, they are in third world country earthquake-damaged condition.It was into this environment that my real estate agent Brandy Dufrene and her husband and business partner Ryan boldly stepped in. They are a great team! While Brandy tackles the marketing, paperwork, legal and bureaucratic nitty-gritty, Ryan does the grunt work of rectifying the deficiencies identified by building inspectors. In my case, he used his power grinder to remove cast iron burglar bars from all the windows, and changed out keyed deadbolt locks for code-compliant latched locks. My previous agent at Keller-Williams Realty would just give me names and phone numbers to call. I would have to hope those guys would actually show up to do the work aEUR" if they bothered to answer my calls & texts at all.It is with pleasure that I can wholeheartedly recommend the team of Brandy and Ryan Dufrene: If they can sell my house, they can sell yours!

ZillowVERIFIEDBrandy Dufrene was my listing agent for my fourplex, which was sold within a few days. Now I am purchasing close to a million dollar property in New Orleans. The closing will be on June 22nd. I trust her, she is very friendly, so within 3 months I am using her as my agent again.

Totally recommend you to anyone.

ZillowVERIFIEDBrandy was very responsive and easy to work with. We have some familiarity with the area, but she helped us navigate the differences in how real estate transactions are handled in a state we are not as familiar with. It was tricky getting all the inspections and required documentation completed out of state, but she stayed on top of it and we closed on time. Would highly recommend her.

ZillowVERIFIEDWe chose Brandy Dufrene as our real estate agent. We wouldn't hesitate to use her again or recommend her to our family and friends. Brandy has an extensive active history of buying and selling real estate in our area. She was always available to us by phone, text and email. She is very organized and explained everything that we needed, provided contractor recommendations for the work that we needed done, was a spot-on in the comparable pricing in the neighborhood, and she worked diligently to get us the best price and best buyer for our home. She went above and beyond to make sure that our transaction went smoothly and in the best terms for us, and we are thankful that we had her as our agent.

ZillowVERIFIEDAbsolutely superior service. I found Brandy on Zillow when I was trying to schedule time to see a property we were interested in. We had not found an agent yet and were in the process of looking. Not only did Brandy have the property lined up we were wanting to see, she asked if we there were others we might be interested in as well (realizing we work long hours and lived far away from the area we were seeking to buy in.) She lined up a number of houses and we saw them all. She was there for us every step of the way and advocated for us to ensure we were happy from negotiating the contract, to inspections - all of it. We just closed our dream home last week! I highly recommend her as an agent.

ZillowVERIFIEDBrandy has been fantastic. She had a plan for us immediately. She handled all the little things that trip you up- getting a fan repaired, getting the house cleaned, getting the grass cut, getting a plumber. She did all of this, got professional photos taken of the house, and had the house under contract for asking price within 10 days. On the 11th day, she got a second full-price offer. Brandy did everything, we did nothing. She's motivated without being overbearing or annoying. She didn't let little details derail her. Best thing to come out of 2020 was meeting Brandy!!!!!!!
