Why the Lafayette Model Makes Sense — Financially and Personally
Why the Lafayette Model Makes Sense — Financially and Personally
The Lafayette Model offers families a unique opportunity to invest in stable, person-centered housing for their loved ones with disabilities—while also achieving significant long-term savings. With an initial $225,000 investment, families secure a private bedroom and bathroom in a thoughtfully designed, five-resident home.
Upon move-out, 85% of the investment is returned, making the true long-term cost just $33,750.
Compared to traditional supported housing programs in areas like Newton, Brookline, or Hyannis, Lafayette rent costs $1,250 less per month, allowing families to break even in just 27 months.
From there, they save $15,000 per year, while their loved ones enjoy dignified, stable, newly renovated home, in a vibrant and supportive community.
Over 10 years, this model can save a family more than $148,000, all while ensuring quality of life, safety, and independence for residents.
