raft brings together real estate, interior design, and homebuilding under one brand. Our unique approach sets us apart by offering a comprehensive understanding of the market and its needs. By integrating these three disciplines, we gain valuable insights into what drives demand and what buyers truly want.
We didn't intentionally set out to become an integrated firm, but rather responded to gaps in the market that our clients faced. Today, having all three under one roof allows us to deliver homes that are not only beautiful but also smart, market-aware, and ready to perform.
When it comes to interest rates, we focus on evaluating every project as a potential "home run" or "fringe project." A home run is a property with great location, ideal lot, and strong design – something buyers will always want. We commit to these high-quality projects regardless of market conditions, protecting our clients, reputation, and results.
Baton Rouge's steady market gives us confidence in investing here, but the limited availability of prime land for top-tier projects means we must act quickly when opportunities arise. The region's stability, demand for quality, and limited top-tier land make it a market we're committed to.
The rising cost of insurance has forced us to rethink our approach to every project. We now prioritize properties that are far out of the flood zone, studying elevation maps and reworking site plans to ensure long-term value, resilience, and peace of mind for homeowners.
Our long-term outlook is optimistic, driven by a growing movement of people investing in Baton Rouge's social and economic transformation. By supporting initiatives like foster care, mentorship programs, and community development, we believe the city has the potential to be transformed over the next 25 years – creating stronger neighborhoods, more opportunity, and stability. This kind of foundation is essential for great real estate markets and businesses.
