Dec 6 2024

“I want to help my clients become successful homeowners.”  

We often hear this from partners looking for ways to improve their service and continue to deliver high-quality support to their clients. 

For Step Up Acadiana, a housing counseling agency in Lafayette, Louisiana that provides homeownership education, pre-purchase, pre-foreclosure, and high-cost loan counseling, finding a solution like Framework was critical for their goal to increase accessibility for clients needing more options than in-person education sessions.  

Framework Homeownership is proud to partner with Step Up Acadiana to help reach more future homebuyers with our trusted homeownership education platform. With comprehensive and award-winning homeownership courses, digital tools, and hundreds of resources that guide homebuyers throughout their sustainable homeownership journey, Step Up Acadiana’s integration with Framework will empower aspiring homeowners to take control of their homeownership journey with confidence and always-there support. 

“It’s rewarding to be able to partner with a counseling agency like Step Up Acadiana as they share our commitment to making homeownership more accessible and sustainable. It is exciting to know that this partnership will help provide more flexible education options to accommodate individual needs and schedules.We look forward to helping families and their community achieve their homeownership goals at their own pace and with the support they need. says Omar Esposito, President & Ceo of Framework Homeownership 

Step Up Acadiana recognizes the challenges many individuals face attending in-person classes:Not everyone can attend classes in person at certain times of the day or certain days of the week. We can’t always have someone take hours out of their day to go get it done. The Framework Homebuyer Education Course is something helpful for people like me who have a little person, who may need to pause to get the education done (Emily Huval, Director of Affordable Housing)” Step Up Acadiana is committed to helping families in their community achieve their goals through personalized counseling and homeownership education, and by leveraging Framework’s innovative homeownership resources, Step Up Acadiana will be able to offer more flexible and accessible learning options to aspiring homeowners.
