Hi, my name is Leslie Richardson. Your assistance is really needed to repair/renovate/remodel the home I grew up in that was severely damaged due to Hurricane Ida when it hit Louisiana in August 2021.
The roof was blown off and rain damaged and ruined everything. The house had
to be completely gutted and everything must be redone – electrical, plumbing,
heating, walls, flooring, air conditioning, installation, cabinetry, and appliances
and furniture will have to be replaced (basically a whole new rebuild and
refurnishing). Over the years, the house has continued to be damaged by rain
because the tarp would keep coming off and here it is rainy season once again
and I don’t want any more damage and be in the same boat again.
I applied for and received a loan from SBA for approximately $47,000. However,
only $25,000 was released. In order for me to get the rest of the money, I had to
show proof of insurance. Unfortunately, I am not and was not able to show proof
of insurance because no insurance agency would insure the house in the
unlivable condition it is in.
I had a small amount of insurance on the house that I intended to use to help
repair the house. Unfortunately, I had to use a lot of the money over the years
when I was struggling financially.
The permit(s) for renovations were finally issued and I’m in the process of getting
quotes from contractors. I received an estimate from one contractor of $60,000+
with the cost of materials rising. I suspect the other contractors will be around
the same price if not more.
The address of the home is 423 Authement Street, Houma, LA 70363. You can
google it. I can send pictures in the mail if you want proof.
Any amount of money or help you can give will be truly appreciated. Thank you!
