ERICA SCALISE ROBERTS
Owner / Mortgage Broker

A Message from Erica

“In 2019, I took a leap of faith and founded Parish Lending with one goal: to make homebuying feel personal, supportive, and truly local. Growing up in West Baton Rouge, I was inspired by the ‘Back Brusly’ oak—strong, steady, and deeply rooted. That oak lives in our logo as a reminder: your mortgage should give you that same strength and stability.

I chose the name Parish Lending because nothing says Louisiana like our beloved parishes, each one its own community with character and heart. Here, we’re not just financing houses; we’re helping you find the place where laughter echoes through the halls, where memories take root, and where you can truly be yourself.

When you work with Parish Lending, you’re not just getting a loan—you’re starting a journey to your dream home, backed by local expertise and guided by someone who cares as much about your future as you do. Welcome home, my friend. 🏡✨
