I've had something similar before, to a laundry and bathroom. In my case, it was that one of the actual breakers, that you pull from the panel....was smoked.

It could be a bad breaker itself.
It very well could. A cheap tester will tell you the answer to that question. Check that there is juice coming into the breaker and then check that it is flowing past the breaker as well. If not...bad breaker. Easy, cheap fix.

My number one guess is that there is a sub panel with an open breaker and he is not aware that there is a sub panel in the house as most people are not.

Could be a major deal, but odds are that it is not.
