With over 30 years in the mortgage industry, John Brawner has built a reputation for thinking outside the box to help clients succeed—especially those turned away elsewhere. His journey began in Corinth, Mississippi, where an early job as a loan processor showed him how rigid lending could be. Since then, he’s made a career of challenging assumptions, creating solutions, and finding ways to get deals done when others can’t.
Beyond lending, John and his wife Becky have raised three children and built multiple businesses together, from real estate investing to estate sales—all driven by the same spirit of curiosity and creativity. Known for his willingness to ask hard questions, fight for clients, and mentor younger professionals, John sees mortgage lending as more than a job—it’s a calling.
Today, he continues to open doors for families with innovative programs like 100% FHA financing and new ventures such as a 1% commission real estate franchise. At the heart of it all, John isn’t just in the mortgage business—he’s in the people business, committed to creating opportunities and changing lives through out-of-the-box thinking.
