Why Choose A Broker
Why New Iberia Buyers
Work With Channing
A bank can only sell you what the bank has. As a broker we shop your loan across multiple wholesale lenders, comparing rates, programs, and fees. And if you are buying a million dollar house with great credit, a big bank will beat me. I will tell you that too.
We Shop Multiple Lenders
Your application goes to multiple wholesale lenders at once. You get the best rate your profile qualifies for, not whatever one bank happens to be selling that week.
Fast Pre-Approvals
In a competitive New Iberia market, speed wins. Most clients get a pre-approval letter the same day they apply, so you can make an offer with confidence.
Side-By-Side Comparisons
FHA against Conventional against VA, run with your actual numbers, so you see the real monthly payment, the mortgage insurance difference, and the total cost over time.
A Real Person Every Time
You work directly with Channing Moore, not a call center. A question at 8pm on a Saturday gets answered. That is what working with a local broker actually means.
Simple Process
3 Steps to Your
New Iberia Mortgage
No confusing paperwork and no surprise fees. A clear path from the first conversation to closing day.
Tell Us About Your Goals
Take the two-minute quiz or call. We review your credit, income, and down payment, then run FHA, VA, USDA, and Conventional side by side so you compare real numbers.
Get StartedGet Pre-Approved
We issue a pre-approval letter that shows New Iberia sellers and agents you are a serious buyer ready to close. Sellers can tell the difference between this and a prequalification.
Get StartedClose On Your New Iberia Home
We manage the file from contract to closing, coordinating the appraisal, title work, and underwriting. You hear from us whether there is news or not.

Buying Your First Home
in New Iberia?
Nobody teaches this. You are expected to make the largest purchase of your life having never been shown how any of it works. Most first-time buyers in Iberia Parish qualify for two or three different programs, and the right one saves thousands.
Louisiana down payment assistance can reduce or wipe out the cash you bring to closing. Put that next to FHA's 3.5% or USDA's $0 down and a lot of New Iberia buyers are further along than they thought.
- We compare FHA, Conventional, USDA, and VA on your numbers
- A soft credit check first, so your score is never touched
- We check every down payment assistance program you qualify for
- If now is not your time, I tell you that and we make a plan
Investors
Investment Property Loans
in New Iberia
New Iberia rental property can be financed with a conventional investment loan or a DSCR loan, which qualifies on the property's rent rather than your personal income or tax returns.
DSCR Loans
Qualify on rental income alone. No tax returns, no W-2s. Works for long-term rentals and for short-term rentals on Airbnb or VRBO, well past Louisiana.
Learn About DSCRConventional Investment
Traditional financing for 1 to 4 unit investment properties in New Iberia. Lower rates than hard money with full 30-year amortization.
Conventional in New IberiaShort-Term Rentals
DSCR lenders will accept Airbnb and VRBO income projections on a property that has no rental history yet, which is usually where a bank stops the conversation.
