Lafayette Veteran Finds His Perfect Home with Zero Out-of-Pocket Costs
For many first-time homebuyers, the dream of owning a brand-new home can feel out of reach—especially when faced with upfront costs, high interest rates, and a complicated buying process. But for Lamar, a proud Army veteran in Lafayette, Louisiana, that dream became a reality thanks to the guidance, knowledge, and expertise of local real estate agent Brice Trahan.
A Home That Checked Every Box- With No Money Down
Lamar, who had recently transitioned from military service to civilian life, had been searching for a home that would give him stability and a fresh start. However, he was concerned about the financial barriers—closing costs, down payments, and the skyrocketing mortgage rates other agents had warned him about.
That’s when he met Brice Trahan. Unlike other realtors who simply pointed him toward homes and handed him off to lenders, Brice took the time to understand his situation, educate him on financing options, and strategize a plan that would allow Lamar to move into his dream home without spending a dime out of pocket.
The Rural Development Loan Advantage
While other agents had told Lamar that he’d need to come up with thousands of dollars to close on a home, Brice knew better. Through his deep knowledge of financing options, he guided Lamar toward the USDA Rural Development Loan—a program that allowed him to secure a zero-down-payment mortgage with favorable terms.
Additionally, Brice negotiated to have all of his closing costs covered, ensuring that he didn’t have to pay anything upfront. Other realtors had overlooked this opportunity, but Brice made it happen.
A Lower Interest Rate & Insurance Savings
Beyond just securing the financing, Brice went above and beyond to find Lamar the lowest possible interest rate, cutting his expected monthly payment significantly. He also worked tirelessly to connect him with an insurance provider that slashed his home insurance cost in half—an option other agents had failed to even mention.
Through these strategic moves, Lamar’s monthly payment was far lower than what other realtors had estimated, making homeownership not just possible, but financially comfortable for him.
An Easy & Stress-Free Process
Buying a home can often be a stressful and overwhelming experience, especially for first-time buyers. However, Lamar recalls his journey with Brice as being easy, seamless, and stress-free.
“Brice was helpful, patient, knowledgeable, and experienced,” Lamar said. “He answered all my questions, explained every step, and made sure I was comfortable with each decision. He was always timely, professional, and friendly, which made me feel confident throughout the entire process.”
Unlike other realtors who left buyers to navigate the complexities alone, Brice stayed with Lamar every step of the way, ensuring that no detail was overlooked and that the process moved smoothly from start to finish.
The Results: A New Home, A Bright Future
Thanks to Brice’s expertise, Lamar moved into his brand-new home without spending a single dollar out of pocket. He now enjoys a spacious, modern home that’s perfect for his needs—without the financial burden he once feared.
