My name is Carl Fanaro and I live in New Orleans with my wife and three children. I am extremely passionate about my family and helping others. Working and spending time with my family are my two favorite things to do. We are very active and we love being outdoors. We spend our days working and nights and weekends we are usually at practices and ballgames these days. My wife is a nurse and I have been buying houses since 2001. We have three kids, two boys and a girl. Our oldest is 11, our middle child is 10 and in fifth grade, and our youngest is 5 years old. I coach basketball, football and baseball so you can imagine we are pretty busy all year round. As a family, we enjoy serving others whether it is through volunteering with the community or participating in local service projects. It brings us joy to be able to help those around us who are less fortunate or going through a tough time.
Carl and his family. “We love our city and want to make it better one house at a time.”

Giving Back to the Community

Local cash house buyers in New Orleans
Lynn and I are passionate about helping children. As parents of three, we feel incredibly blessed by our own children and believe that kids are, without a doubt, our future. That’s why we proudly donate $100 to Children’s Hospital of New Orleans every time we buy a house.
Giving back to the community is a core value for us, and this commitment, which we started in 2022, allows us to play a small part in helping children have a brighter day today than they did yesterday. Our goal is to continue making a positive impact, one house—and one smile—at a time.
If you have any questions about how we work, what the process of selling a house is or anything else about NOLA or real estate in general, don’t hesitate to contact us anytime!

Carl and his team were very helpful. We had a very difficult family situation but he showed a lot of patience working with all sides of the family. Everything got done and went much smoother than I expected!
