About Louisiana

The market we know.

Louisiana's real estate markets are anchored by New Orleans — one of the most distinctive STR markets in America — and Baton Rouge's petrochemical and government economy. Lafayette, Shreveport, and the I-10 corridor round out the state.

Matrix funds fix-and-flip in New Orleans' Marigny, Bywater, and Mid-City, DSCR rentals across Baton Rouge and Lafayette, and bridge financing on value-add multifamily.
