Young Couple Becomes Homeowners in Hattiesburg

At only 19 and 21, Breleigh West (Miller) and her husband became homeowners in Hattiesburg, MS. While attending The University of Southern Mississippi, the couple became tired of renting and paying for a space that they couldn’t make their own and began searching for homes. “We were paying just as much in rent as we would pay for a house. My husband and I wanted our own space and something we could make our own. We found a house that we loved, and the down payment assistance and guidance from Renaissance made the purchase possible,” said Mrs. West.

Becoming a homeowner can be scary at any age, but becoming young homeowners comes with its own set of challenges. Thankfully, the Renaissance team was there to help with Mrs. West. She stated that the guidance and transparency from her Mortgage Loan Originator and Mortgage Loan Processor made the process easy and understandable. “I really enjoyed how communicative Ms. TJ and Robert were. I was so stressed about the process, but they always made sure I understood everything and was fully prepared from start to finish,” said Mrs. West. 

Now that they are homeowners, Breleigh and her husband are excited to make their home their own. Breleigh plans to finish college and become an adolescent behavioral therapist while her husband serves in the military. When asked what she would say about working with Renaissance to others, Breleigh stated, “If you are unsure about the process, just call and ask. Everyone was so helpful. The Renaissance team went out of their way to help me.”
