STACIA WEISHAAR
Senior Loan Officer
A business coach and a book changed Stacia Weishaar’s life. She was so moved by “Start With Why” by Simon Sinek that it inspired her to sever ties with software start-ups and propel her back into the mortgage industry after a 10-year hiatus. Her WHY in all she does in life is about building and fostering relationships with a foundation of transparency so that everyone she loves, likes, and knows is safe.
As a young child at the age of six, she was at risk of losing her own life. Now, Stacia lives each day with joy and a deep intention of keeping those she cares about safe. Because of her deep values of transparency and safety, she leads every interaction with her clients and partners with a drive to educate.
Stacia and her team lead their mortgage practice with mindfulness. From the first point of contact through closing and beyond, she educates her clients based on their specific mortgage financing needs.
Her industry vision is to “create a delightful refuge during the most emotional, sizable, and financially impactful purchases of her clients’ lives.” Her goal in business is to partner with like-minded people to effortlessly expand their referral networks while strengthening existing relationships with customers, partners, and peers.
