Growing up in the Midwest, John Weaver developed an early appreciation for the value of strong banking relationships through his family-owned and operated landscape supply business, which worked closely with a trusted commercial lender.
The experience shaped his interest in helping companies grow and ultimately led him to pursue his own career in commercial lending, where he has primarily focused his professional efforts ever since.
As Equipment Finance Regional Sales Manager at HomeTrust, John works closely with companies across the Southeast to finance a wide range of equipment, including medical devices, agricultural machinery, and manufacturing equipment.
John focuses on building long-term partnerships while providing consistent, high-level support throughout the life of a business. He believes that every transaction requires nuance, and he aims to offer practical solutions that help companies increase revenues and improve operations.
His representative transactions range from $100,000 equipment loans for specialty medical devices to equipment loans of more than $1MM for commercial printing machinery, construction equipment, and more.
John earned a Bachelor of Business Administration from Grand Valley State University and began his career as a commercial lending officer more than 20 years ago.
Prior to HomeTrust, he served as Director of Commercial Lending at Vibrant Credit Union before leading a multi-state territory as part of the institution’s equipment financing division.
Based in Cary, North Carolina, John and his wife enjoy fishing, water skiing, snow skiing, and spending time outdoors with their two sons and goldendoodle, Sammie.
