Acadiana Mortgage
Acadiana Mortgage is a locally owned Louisiana mortgage company co-founded in 1998 by Kara Lowrie and her husband, Michael "Duke" Lowrie. The company was built on a commitment to integrity, personalized service, and long-term client relationships.
Kara began her mortgage career in 1991 and brings more than three decades of hands-on lending experience to families across the Shreveport–Bossier and greater Louisiana market. Acadiana Mortgage specializes in home purchase loans, VA lending, refinance strategy, and clear, practical mortgage guidance.
Unlike national call centers or online-only lenders, Acadiana Mortgage operates with a hands-on approach. Every client works directly with an experienced loan officer who understands Louisiana property values, tax structures, and insurance requirements — not a rotating team of processors in another state.
Why This Matters: Who you work with matters as much as what program you choose. A local lender who knows the Louisiana market and stays with you from application through closing makes the entire experience smoother and more strategic.
