Robin Lormand has been in the mortgage industry long enough to have seen just about everything, and that is exactly what makes her so good at what she does. With roots in the Lafayette area and surrounding parishes going back over 15 years, and a career in Florida, Texas, and Louisiana stretching all the way to the early 2000s, Robin brings a depth of experience that is genuinely rare. She has originated loans at banks, owned her own mortgage company, worked with small broker shops and large nationwide lenders, and spent several years as a preferred lender for builders. That breadth of background means no transaction catches her off guard and no client ever has to wonder if they are in capable hands.


At Citywide Home Mortgage, Robin works with borrowers at every stage of life, from the excited first-time buyer nervously signing their first set of documents to the seasoned homeowner making one final move. She is well versed in conventional, VA, FHA, and down payment assistance programs and takes genuine pride in making sure every single client understands not just what is happening, but why. In a process that can feel overwhelming, Robin is the calm, steady presence that makes people feel like they are going to be okay. Her clients describe her as knowledgeable, professional, easy to talk to, and a true problem solver who listens first and acts with both confidence and compassion.


Outside of work, Robin's faith is at the center of everything she does. She loves spending time with family and friends, cooking old favorites and experimenting with new recipes, and losing herself in creative projects like painting, crocheting blankets and hats, and other crafts. Her greatest joy these days is time with her two granddaughters, and if there happens to be a rodeo on, even better. She brings that same warmth, patience, and love of people to every client she has the privilege of working with.

James entered the mortgage industry in 2019, starting in a loan officer assistant and processing role before transitioning to originating full time in 2020.

He is easy to reach, quick to respond, and the kind of loan officer who makes his clients feel like they are his only client. His goal is not just to close a loan but to help people build generational wealth and realize their full potential through the home they are about to own.


When he is not working, James can be found on the water fishing, out in the field hunting, cheering on his favorite teams, or spending time with friends and family. He brings that same love of community and connection to every client relationship he builds.

If you spend thirty years doing everything in mortgage banking except accounting, you stop calling yourself a specialist and start calling yourself what you actually are: someone who has seen it all. Perry Trotter has originated loans, underwritten them, processed them, managed teams, developed business, and navigated the secondary market. He has been in every seat at the table, and that experience shows up every single time he sits across from a client.


A proud LSU alumnus with a degree in Business and History, Perry has built his career along the I-10 corridor of Louisiana, from New Orleans to Baton Rouge, Lafayette, and Lake Charles. He is licensed across the entire state and has a particular passion for first-time homebuyers and construction clients, as well as investors who are serious about growing their portfolios. Whether someone is buying their very first home or adding to a real estate empire, Perry approaches every deal with the same level of care and the kind of calm, solutions-oriented thinking that only comes from three decades in the trenches.


Clients consistently describe Perry as knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely invested in helping them achieve their goals, not just the transaction in front of them, but the bigger picture of where they want to go in life. He is the kind of advisor who does not just close loans, he helps people solve problems.


Outside of the office, Perry is fully committed to the organized chaos of raising two busy kids. He coaches baseball, basketball, and football, stays active in his church community, and is especially passionate about youth events. When he finally gets a moment to himself, you will probably find him on the couch watching a movie with his wife of 20 years.
