We're excited to announce an exclusive partnership that extends our reach beyond Houston and into one of America's most storied cities: New Orleans.
Nan & Company Properties has been named the exclusive Texas brokerage partner for Weber Development and Slyce Properties, two family-owned New Orleans firms with deep roots in the city's most historic neighborhoods. This partnership gives our clients direct access to luxury residences in the French Quarter, Central Business District, and Warehouse District – properties that represent the best of what New Orleans has to offer.
Why New Orleans, and Why Now
Texas buyers have long been drawn to New Orleans. Just a five-hour drive from Houston, the proximity is part of it, but it's more than geography. It's the architecture, the food, the music, the festivals. It's the kind of city that rewards return visits and eventually makes you ask: Why not own a place there?
That question is what drove this partnership. We've seen the demand firsthand. Our clients travel to New Orleans regularly for JazzFest, for Mardi Gras, for long weekends at Galatoire's. Many have stayed at the same hotels for years. And increasingly, they're ready to stop renting and start owning.
Who We're Partnering With
Weber Development was founded in 1979 and has completed over $1 billion in residential, commercial, and hospitality projects across the Gulf region. Their focus on historically rooted luxury—preserving what matters while building for how people actually live today—aligns closely with our own values.
Slyce Properties, backed by Weber, offers something distinct: fractional ownership opportunities in rare properties like the iconic Jax Brewery building near the French Quarter. For buyers seeking flexibility without sacrificing quality, Slyce provides access to remarkable homes on terms that make sense for a second-home lifestyle.
Both companies are family-owned, like ours. That matters. It means decisions are made with long-term thinking, not quarterly earnings calls. It means every project reflects a personal commitment to craftsmanship and service.
What This Means for Our Clients
Through this partnership, Nan & Company clients gain access to properties across New Orleans' most desirable neighborhoods:
- The French Quarter: Historic residences steps from Royal Street, Jackson Square, and the city's finest dining
- Central Business District: Modern luxury with skyline views and walkable access to entertainment venues
- Warehouse District: Converted industrial spaces with soaring ceilings and contemporary finishes
The Flagship: 917 Conti
At the heart of this partnership is 917 Conti, an exclusive collection of 16 residences in the French Quarter. The building is the former Musée Conti Wax Museum, a mid-19th century landmark that has been meticulously transformed into luxury condominiums that honor New Orleans' architectural heritage while delivering modern performance.
What makes 917 Conti rare in the French Quarter: every system is new. Complete gut renovation means new electrical, new plumbing, new HVAC, hurricane-rated windows, and steel-stud soundproofing between units. Each residence comes with a new home warranty, almost unheard of in a neighborhood where buildings routinely exceed 150 years.
The building also offers something genuinely scarce in the Quarter: secure, covered, indoor parking with interior access to elevators. For Texas buyers driving in for long weekends, this is more than a luxury. It's a necessity.
Residences range from $599,900 to over $2 million, with one-, two-, and three-bedroom floor plans from 754 to over 2,100 square feet.
Penthouse A: A Texas Exclusive
For our clients, we've secured exclusive access to Penthouse A—a residence not publicly listed and available only through Nan & Company Properties.
The numbers: 2,103 square feet of interior living space. A 2,000-square-foot private deck overlooking the French Quarter and CBD skyline. A private pool. A private hot tub. A 20-foot window wall that erases the line between indoor and outdoor living. Premium appliances throughout.
This is the crown of 917 Conti, and it's being offered first to Texas buyers. Contact us for pricing and availability.
Beyond Whole Ownership: Slyce Properties
For those exploring fractional ownership, Slyce offers a compelling alternative: access to multimillion-dollar properties—including residences in the iconic Jax Brewery building—at a fraction of the cost, with scheduling flexibility built for people who split their time between cities.
A Partnership Built on Shared Values
"All three of our companies are family-owned, and we share the belief that real estate is personal and that every detail should tell a story," said Nancy Almodovar, CEO and Co-Founder of Nan & Company Properties. "Weber Development and Slyce Properties create homes that honor history while embracing the way people want to live today. We know Texas buyers will respond to that blend of heritage and elevated convenience, and we're proud to represent their portfolio."
Jonathan Weber, Partner at Weber Development and Co-Founder of Slyce Properties, echoed that sentiment: "We've built our reputation on knowing when to restore, when to reinvent, and how to bring history forward. Nan & Company understands the emotional connection that people form with their homes. They lead with a level of service and market knowledge that aligns with our values."
For Texas Buyers Who Know
This partnership is designed for a specific kind of buyer:
- Houston professionals with existing connections to New Orleans—business travel, family ties, or simply years of return visits
- Empty nesters ready to own rather than rent, tired of fighting for hotel rooms during festival season
- Investors seeking stable rental income from 30-day minimum leases in one of America's strongest tourism markets
- Multi-home buyers building a portfolio that includes a cultural destination alongside their beach house or ski retreat
If you've ever walked through the French Quarter and thought I could live here—or at least spend a few weeks a year here—this is your opportunity.
