Colony Bank's Landon Lanier is our local affiliate for the Homes for Heroes program.

In a world that constantly faces challenges, there are those who step forward to protect, heal, and educate us. These everyday heroes—firefighters, EMS personnel, law enforcement officers, military members, healthcare professionals, and teachers—often go above and beyond their call of duty. 

Recognizing their unparalleled contributions, the Homes for Heroes program was born, transforming lives with its remarkable Hero Rewards® program. Currently, Homes for Heroes saves these heroes an average of $3,000 when they buy, sell or refinance home.

Landon Lanier, a local mortgage lender with Colony Bank, is now an affiliate with Homes for Heroes. He has more than 20 years of banking experience, with a Bachelor of Business Administration in Finance from Georgia Southern University. 

He is excited to announce that he is bringing the benefits of the Homes for Heroes program to our area. Landon is dedicated to helping heroes navigate the home buying, selling, and refinancing processes, ensuring they receive the full benefits of this incredible program.

A Legacy of Gratitude

The Homes for Heroes program was established in the aftermath of the tragic events of 9/11. It began as a heartfelt initiative to express gratitude and provide tangible support to those who dedicate their lives to serving others. 

Over the past two decades, Homes for Heroes has grown into the nation's #1 Hero Rewards® program, offering substantial savings and support to our country’s most selfless individuals.

Since its inception, Homes for Heroes has reached over 60,000 heroes across the United States, delivering more than $100 million in Hero Rewards savings. 

These savings are not just numbers; they represent real, meaningful financial relief for those who have given so much to their communities.

Unlocking Hero Rewards: Savings that Matter

Homes for Heroes offers three primary ways for heroes to benefit from the program:

  1. Buying or Selling a Home: Heroes receive a check from Homes for Heroes when they buy or sell a home. On average, this results in a $3,000 savings, providing crucial financial support during significant life transitions.
  2. Mortgage or Refinance: Heroes benefit from reduced lending fees when they secure a mortgage or refinance through the program, making homeownership more accessible and affordable.
  3. Local Business Affiliates: Heroes can also enjoy special discounts from local businesses affiliated with Homes for Heroes, further extending their savings and support network.

The Circle of Giving: Heroes Helping Heroes

One of the most inspiring aspects of Homes for Heroes is its Circle of Giving. Every time a hero uses the program, they are also helping other heroes in need.

A portion of the program’s earnings is donated to the Homes for Heroes Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that provides essential assistance to heroes facing hardships. This foundation ensures that the spirit of giving and support continues to thrive, creating a ripple effect of kindness and generosity.
