I highly recommend Dana Patureau with Chateau to Geaux. She always answered our calls and texts no matter what time of day or night and a fierce negotiator getting us an awesome price compared to the neighboring houses.She's a hard working honest realtor who proved willing to go the extra mile. This was the 4th house we purchased in 7 years and it was by far the best and smoothest home buying process because of all the work Dana did for us. Over the past several years we have moved to 4 times for my husbands job. Trying to sell a house quickly while looking to buy a new one in a different city can be quite stressful, especially with 3 boys. I was so thankful to have found Dana Patureau, with Chateau to Geaux, to help me through complex process of finding the right house in the right neighborhood for my boys with the highest rated schools. I am exceedingly grateful to have had Dana to reach out to with all my questions about locations of schools and activities for my boys. My husband was able to narrow down the prospects but there was still a lot to filtering to be done. I only had 1 chance to visit the Baton Rouge area to make a decision. When I was finally able to make the 5 hour drive to meet with Dana she had all the school mapping info printed and ready for us to comb through. We were able to narrow down the search to Prairieville. She realized that I was becoming a bit anxious about the housing prices in the area compared to what we were use to seeing. She quickly eased my mind showing me all the factors that effect our monthly house note were not the same and we would not see a difference. We were so excited when pulling up to the last house of the day because I knew we were home because Dana is the best! read more

6/15/2014 Edit " I would highly recommend Dana Patureau w/ Chateau to Geaux because of her Honesty & overall high professionalism, over 10 years plus of experience, and the positive experience we had when dealing with her and her company. We listed our house with her and it sold in less than 30 days and then she sold us our new Dream home! She is very dedicated to her job and goes above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable with the whole process. Dana was extremely prompt and patient with responding to our questions via text message, email and phone and is on top of scheduling showings ASAP. I think what sets Dana apart from all the other realtor's is that you always feel that she has your best interests at heart & that she truly cares about you and your family. She was never pushy and was very honest so much so that when she believed a house was overpriced or did not meet our criteria she would tell us & even point out defects and provide sale comparables backing it up. Her communication style, photography, guidance on decorating & staging, marketing plan and expert advice when listing our home really showcased our property and I believe that is the reason it sold in less than 30 days. Dana would respond to emails within minutes and answer the phone even after 10pm. We really felt her interest to make our selling and buying experience the best and she really did. She was flexible and always accommodating with our schedules as well. Dana is a very sweet person and easy to talk to and get along with which is a plus!!! I would never want to use anyone else in Baton Rouge or surrounding areas when buying or selling a home. 5 STAR REALTOR! read more
