    What to know about renting in New Orleans?  

    In New Orleans, the rental environment enables tenants to have less leverage than landlords. A 10-day notice by the landlord is enough to evict month-to-month renters, while violating lease conditions or failing to pay rent requires merely five days’ notice. Renters insurance is a necessity in New Orleans due to the city’s susceptibility to hurricanes and major storms. The lease may be terminated if a rented facility is damaged from weather-related events.
