Complete and signed offer
Ensure the entire offer to purchase is completed with no unexplained blanks and signed where required. All material terms must appear in the signed offer or an applicable signed addendum—not only in the email.
For cooperating agents
Louisiana offer guidelines.

Before submitting
Review the MLS documents first.
Property-specific instructions in the MLS, agent remarks and attachments control when they differ from these general guidelines. Please verify the listing status and any stated offer deadline before submitting an offer.

Insurance reminder
Begin shopping before submitting.
Buyers are strongly encouraged to begin shopping for homeowners and flood insurance, when applicable, before submitting an offer. Louisiana insurance availability and cost may materially affect the buyer's payment and financing.
Inspection reminder
Plan for an early inspection.
Please contact the buyer's preferred inspection company before submitting to determine its earliest availability. If possible, tentatively reserve a date near the beginning of the requested inspection and due-diligence period. If the offer does not become a contract, the appointment may be canceled.
Louisiana contract deadlines are calculated using calendar days, including weekends. We find it helpful to inspect early and, when possible, negotiate inspection matters on weekdays so clients can contact contractors, obtain estimates or bids, and evaluate requested remedies before the deadline.
Preferred title company and deposit holder
Crescent Title, LLC
Please name Crescent Title as the closing/title company and deposit holder in the offer.
Weekend and holiday policy
Please set the offer expiration accordingly.
Offers received after 5:00 p.m. on Friday, during the weekend or on a recognized holiday will be acknowledged on the next business day. A seller response should not be expected before the next business day.
Complete offer packages help us present your client's offer promptly and accurately. If anything is missing, review may be delayed while we request the outstanding information. Submission does not guarantee acceptance, counteroffer or a particular response time. Offers are handled in accordance with the seller's instructions and applicable Louisiana requirements.
