About the host
Hosted by Teresa Rainey
Hi! I’m a realtor, house flipper, designer, host & mom to 5 crazy, amazing kids. Originally from Long Beach, CA & raised on a farm in S Louisiana, I definitely got the wanderlust gene. I love to travel & host people who visit, in fun spaces that I would want to stay in. Due to food allergies, our family has to have a kitchen when we travel. I design all of my spaces with this in mind.
Our mission is to give a portion of all of our revenue back to the community in times of need & natural disaster. Thanks for supporting the cause.
Why they chose this property
I love downtown Lafayette, LA. It's bustling with art, culture, and the incredible food that our area is known for.
What makes this property unique
The Cypress Flats is a historic Lafayette building that was previously owned by USPS and used as a sorting facility. It has since been renovated into 5 modern-industrial apartments & even preserved the door to the original vault.
