I found a house in Mandeville LA that I love, it is in a good neighborhood, but the back yard fence backs up to a strip mall and an elderly living community on the main Highway 22. I don't mind the elderly living community, but I have questions about the strip mall affecting the property value. Neighborhood has strong restrictions and really nice houses, so I don't think they will deteriorate, but I am worried about the strip mall. Any thoughts?

I'm not sure if you are familiar with Mandeville, but as far as towns in Louisiana go, it's one of the nicest you'll find. Mandeville, Madisonville, and Covington still have that wonderful New Orleans style culture but without all the riff raff found in New Orleans. Maybe you could put up a fence in the back so you can't see the buildings?

As thought provoking as your reply was....

No, it's not New Orleans, but most of the people are from New Orleans. The older homes along the lake, the mossy oaks, etc. Yes, it does have the southern New Orleans style feel to an extent, except a whole lot safer.

As long as Mandeville has more miles of Treadmills than Sidewalks.... your property value is safe.

We live right near where you are looking, and those strip malls come in handy more than you'd think.
